Charybdis Japonica

The innate immune response of Charybdis japonica treated with Aeromonas hydrophila was explored using bioinformatics. Metabolomics data were integrated with a gut microbial 16S rRNA dataset, together with information on corresponding enzyme activity. The results of the study showed that after being infected with A. hydrophila, some beneficial genera of bacteria in the gut of C. japonica, such as Photobacterium, Rhodobacter, Polaribacter, Psychrilyobacter, Mesoflavibacter, Fusibacter and Phormidium, could directly inhibit Vibrio or produce extracellular polysaccharides with highly effective antibacterial properties. The intestinal probiotics of C. japonica such as Mesoflavibacter have a mutually reinforcing relationship with Phaeobacter, Colwellia, Bacillus, Psychrobacter and Cohaesibacter. Conditional pathogenic bacteria in the gut of healthy crabs may also have such a symbiotic relationship with intestinal probiotics, promoting their growth and reproduction. For example, Phormidium has a mutualistic relationship with Aeromonas and Azopira. Metabolites in the gut of C. japonica infected with A. hydrophila, including beta-alanine metabolism, nitrogen metabolism, inositol phosphate metabolism, galactose metabolism, histidine metabolism, ascorbate and arginine and proline metabolism were increased, with alanine metabolism being the most abundant. The activity of metabolite related enzymes such as lipid peroxidase, phenoloxidase, superoxide dismutase, nitric oxide synthase, glutathione transferase and mid-glutathione decreased and NO levels also decreased. The positive correlation with the probiotic flora suggests that metabolites increase with bacterial abundance and that microbial metabolites or co-metabolites can, in turn, achieve many pleiotropic effects to resist invasion by A. hydrophila. These results may contribute to further research in the resistance of C. japonica to invading pathogens.

A pathogenicAeromonas hydrophilastrain An4 was isolated from marine catfish and characterized with reference to its proteolytic and hemolytic activity along with SDS-PAGE profile (sodium dodecyl sulphate-Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) of ECPs (extracellular proteins) showing hemolysin (approximately 50 kDa). Agar well diffusion assay using crude cell extract of the bacterial isolate clearly demonstrated antibacterial activity against indicator pathogenic bacteria,Staphylococcus arlettaestrain An1,Acinetobactersp. strain An2,Vibrio parahaemolyticusstrain An3, andAlteromonas aurentiaSE3 showing inhibitory zone >10 mm well comparable to common antibiotics. Further GC-MS analysis of crude cell extract revealed several metabolites, namely, phenolics, pyrrolo-pyrazines, pyrrolo-pyridine, and butylated hydroxytoluene (well-known antimicrobials). Characterization of EPS using FTIR indicated presence of several protein-related amine and amide groups along with peaks corresponding to carboxylic and phenyl rings which may be attributed to its virulent and antibacterial properties, respectively. Besides hemolysin, EPS, and protease,Aeromonas hydrophilastrain An4 also produced several antibacterial metabolites.

Berberine hydrochloride is an isoquinoline alkaloid, which has antitumoral, antibacterial, and antiviral activities in vivo and in vitro. Charybdis japonica is one of the main economic species of crab in Southeast Asia. We studied the molecular mechanism of oxidative stress in berberine hydrochloride-treated C. japonica infected with Aeromonas hydrophila. C. japonica were infected with A. hydrophila after being submerged in different concentrations (0, 100, 200, and 300 mg/L) of berberine hydrochloride for 48 h. The full-length cDNA of Prx6 and the ORFs of Prx5 and PXL2A were cloned. Prx6 and PXL2A each have one conserved domain, Cys44, and Cys81. The Prx5 conserved domain contains three important Cys loci, Cys75, Cys100, and Cys76. Prx6 was different from Prx5 and PXL2A in the Peroxiredoxin family. The transcription levels of PXL2A infected with A. hydrophila were all higher than the control. The transcription levels of C. japonica were further increased by adding berberine hydrochloride and were increased the highest at a concentration of 300 mg/L. The activities of glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and catalase in the hepatopancreas of berberine hydrochloride-treated C. japonica infected with A. hydrophila were significantly increased compared with those only infected with A. hydrophila and the control group. The glutathione transferase activity in the hepatopancreas was significantly increased in berberine hydrochloride-treated C. japonica. The results of this study provide a new understanding of the potential role of berberine hydrochloride on the oxidative stress mechanisms of C. japonica.

Background:The imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis mouse model has been used as a model for pathogenic mechanism research, and methotrexate (MTX) is widely employed to treat various clinical manifestations of psoriasis. We explored the underlying pathogenesis of psoriasis and the treatment mechanism of the conventional drugs from the metabolic perspective of the psoriasis mouse model.Methods:Male BALB/c mice were smeared IMQ for 7 days to induce treatment-resistant psoriasis and intragastrically administered 1 mg/kg MTX. We evaluated inflammation of psoriasis-like lesions and therapeutic effects of MTX based on histological changes and immunohistochemistry. Based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometer detection of serum samples, a comprehensive metabolomics analysis was carried out to identify alterations of metabolites.Results:It was found that MTX ameliorated psoriatic lesions (representative erythema, scaling, and thickening) by inhibiting proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes. Using multivariate statistical analysis to process metabolomics data, the results displayed alterations in serum metabolites among mice of the control group, IMQ group, and MTX group. Compared with group, psoriasis mice had the higher level of d-galactose and lower expression of myo-inositol, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid, and cholesterol. In contrast with the model set, serum levels of glycine, pyrrolidone carboxylic acid, d-galactose, and d-mannose were significantly decreased in the MTX group.Conclusion:The differential metabolites, reflecting the perturbation in the pathways of inositol phosphate metabolism; galactose metabolism; glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism; glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism; and glutathione metabolism, may lead to the pathogenesis of psoriasis, and they are also related to the pharmacological treatment effect of MTX on psoriasis. This study established the foundation for further research on the mechanism and therapeutic targets of psoriasis.

Abstract Objectives This study aims to determine the characteristics of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus reuteri from fermented soursop fruit juice and cow’s milk, respectively as probiotic candidate based on exposure to pH, bile salts, pathogenic bacteria, and antibiotics. Methods In vitro studies were conducted to examine the resistance of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus reuteri in pH 2, 2.5, 3.2, and 7.2, resistance to bile salts, resistance to pathogenic bacteria (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis) and antituberculosis antibiotics. Results Viability of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus reuteri isolates remained unchanged (6.3 × 107 CFU/mL and 5.03 × 107 CFU/mL) at various acidic pH, and had a low survival rate in Ox gall 0.3% (bile salts). These isolates also showed antibacterial properties against pathogens in the gastrointestinal tract. Both of these bacteria are quite safe to be used together with ofloxacin, linezolid, moxifloxacin, and levofloxacin, antibiotic for tuberculosis therapy. Conclusions The results showed that Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus reuteri from fermented soursop fruit juice and cow’s milk respectively fulfilled the characteristics of probiotic and could potentially be used as adjunct therapy in tuberculosis drug-resistance.

Sterilization Effect

Abstract In this work, we systematically investigate the sterilization effect of six kinds of commonly used commercial disinfectants, including the DuPont Virkon disinfectant, peracetic acid disinfectant, sodium hypochlorite, bromogeramine disinfectant, water-soluble allicin, and absolute ethanol, against the Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Monilia albican and Clostridium sporogenes. The inhibition zone was used to qualitatively determine the antibacterial effects of the six disinfectants, and then the minimum two-fold dilution method was used to quantitatively determine the minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration of the six disinfectants on the four pathogens. The result illustrated that the antibacterial effect of peracetic acid disinfectant is the best, and clostridium sporogenes is the most sensitive to it, followed by bromogermine disinfectant, which can inhibit the four pathogenic bacteria at the concentration recommended by the manufacturer. The antibacterial effect of DuPont Virkon disinfectant, sodium hypochlorite, water-soluble allicin and absolute ethanol is not as good as expected, and cannot inhibit the four kinds of pathogenic bacteria at the recommended concentration. In summary, the antibacterial effect of peracetic acid disinfectant is the strongest, followed by the bromogermine disinfectant, DuPont Virkon disinfectant, sodium hypochlorite and water-soluble allicin. The absolute ethanol exhibits the worst antibacterial properties.

Initially, magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) Fe3O4 are synthesized by a chemical correlation method and its core / shell structure is detected using SEM, FT-IR analysis. The purpose of this production was to use the nanoparticle performance level in the absorption of antibiotics, namely, ampicillin (amp). Absorption sampling was analyzed by UV-Vis spectrophotometer and the results indicate that the absorbance of the ampere increases to 85%. The bond between these two is electrostatic bonding, which was confirmed by EDX analysis. Ultimately, this compound was used for the antibacterial process. In this case, the MNP-amp compound was added in a natural amount of 20 μl a bacterial culture pattern overnight (In-vitro). The results showed that 95% of the bacteria were killed (confirmation of antibacterial properties of MNP). Therefore, it can be transmitted intentionally by controlling the magnetic field into living cells for the destruction of pathogenic bacteria.

Nowadays, zinc oxide (ZnO) has attracted attention in research and development because of its remarkable antibacterial properties. Chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were successfully synthesized via microwave heating. The objectives of this work were to investigate the effect of stabilizer, power heating and time heating on size of chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles and to determine antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria, where chitosan was used as a stabilizing agent. Chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were analyzed  by Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), and Zetasizer instrument. The power heating and time heating were varied from 400 to 800 Watt and 4 to 8 minutes, respectively. The presence of chitosan has role on preventing the nanoparticles from agglomeration by producing a milky solution of chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles without any suspensions. The increase of power  and time heating improved the size of nanoparticles. The peak in FTIR spectrum at around 427 cm-1 was confirmed the existence of the ZnO phase. XRD patterns showed that the chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles materials were pure phase with average crystalline size is 130 nm. FESEM revealed that chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were uniformly distributed with the mean value of size is 70 nm and spherical shaped. Further impact of power and time heating on the size of the chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles can be shown by a nanoparticles size distribution with the average of 30 to 90 nm. The results showed that chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles have displayed an antibacterial inhibition zone against Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli which 16.0 and 13.3 mm, respectively. Chitosan/ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized in this work presented have potential application to prevent bacterial infections. Copyright © 2019 BCREC Group. All rights reserved

This study aimed to investigate cultivable actinomycetes associated with rare honey bee species in Thailand and their antagonistic activity against plant pathogenic bacteria. Actinomycetes were selectively isolated from the black dwarf honey bee (Apis andreniformis). A total of 64 actinomycete isolates were obtained with Streptomyces as the predominant genus (84.4%) followed by Micromonospora (7.8%), Nonomuraea (4.7%) and Actinomadura (3.1%). All isolates were screened for antimicrobial activity against Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, Pectobacterium carotovorum and Pseudomonas syringae pv. sesame. Three isolates inhibited the growth of X. campestris pv. campestris during in vitro screening. The crude extracts of two isolates (ASC3-2 and ASC5-7P) had a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 128 mg L−1against X. campestris pv. campestris. For isolate ACZ2-27, its crude extract showed stronger inhibitory effect with a lower MIC value of 64 mg L−1 against X. campestris pv. campestris. These three active isolates were identified as members of the genus Streptomyces based on their 16S rRNA gene sequences. Phylogenetic analysis based on the maximum likelihood algorithm showed that isolate ACZ2-27, ASC3-2 and ASC5-7P were closely related to Streptomyces misionensis NBRC 13063T (99.71%), Streptomyces cacaoi subsp. cacaoi NBRC 12748T (100%) and Streptomyces puniceus NBRC 12811T (100%), respectively. In addition, representative isolates from non-Streptomyces groups were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. High similarities were found with members of the genera Actinomadura, Micromonospora and Nonomuraea. Our study provides evidence of actinomycetes associated with the black dwarf honey bee including members of rare genera. Antimicrobial potential of these insect associated Streptomyces was also demonstrated especially the antibacterial activity against phytopathogenic bacteria.
