Abstract

Biofilm infections are highly resistant to commercial antibiotics. Therefore, developing a potent agent against such drug-resistant bacterial infections is highly desirable. Here, we synthesized positively charged silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) with a diameter of <2 nm, which were found to be very effective antibacterial and antibiofilm agents against tetracycline-resistant and most importantly multidrug-resistant pathogenic strains of and . Ag NCs were able to both prevent and eradicate the biofilm formation very effectively. The antibiofilm activity can be significantly increased with α-amylase and/or DNase which degrade the structural components of biofilms. The antibiofilm activity of antibiotics gets considerably lowered due to poor penetration and the acidic microenvironment of biofilms. However, the potency of antibiotics gets significantly increased when applied with Ag NCs. Finally, RNA seq-based analysis has demonstrated that the biofilm degradation was likely due to the regulation of bacterial chemotaxis and flagellar assembly pathway genes by Ag NCs.

摘要

生物膜感染对商业抗生素具有高度抗性。因此,开发针对这种耐药性细菌感染的有效药物是非常必要的。在这里,我们合成了带正电荷的直径小于 2nm 的银纳米簇(Ag NCs),发现其对四环素耐药的细菌具有非常有效的抗菌和抗生物膜作用,更重要的是,对多药耐药的致病性 和 菌株也有很好的作用。Ag NCs 能够非常有效地预防和清除生物膜的形成。添加能够降解生物膜结构成分的α-淀粉酶和/或 DNase 可以显著提高抗生物膜活性。由于抗生素渗透不良和生物膜的酸性微环境,其抗菌活性会大大降低。然而,当与 Ag NCs 一起使用时,抗生素的功效会显著增强。最后,基于 RNA seq 的分析表明,生物膜的降解可能是由于 Ag NCs 调节了细菌的趋化作用和鞭毛组装途径基因。
