Transcriptional profiles of uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 exposed to cranberry-derived proanthocyanidins (PACs) were determined. Our results indicate that bacteria grown on media supplemented with PACs were iron deprived. To our knowledge, this is the first time that PACs have been shown to induce a state of iron limitation in this bacterium.
检测了经蔓越莓来源原花青素(PACs)处理的尿路致病性大肠杆菌 CFT073 的转录谱。我们的结果表明,在添加 PACs 的培养基中生长的细菌缺铁。据我们所知,这是首次证明 PACs 可诱导该细菌进入缺铁状态。
