Impact of Species, Growth Conditions, and Plant Processing on the Phytochemistry and Antimicrobial Activity of Agrimonia Extracts

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Agrimony is a medicinal herb known for its content of polyphenols and beneficial bioactivity, both of which can be strongly influenced by cultivation and processing. This study reveals that agrimony plant structures, species, and postharvest processing are the main drivers of observed variability in both phytochemical composition and antimicrobial ...

The Extracellular Matrix of Candida albicans Biofilms Impairs Formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
Neutrophils release extracellular traps (NETs) in response to planktonic C. albicans. These complexes composed of DNA, histones, and proteins inhibit Candida growth and dissemination.

Chemodiversity of Essential Oils From Eugenia uniflora L. Collected in Different Phytophysiognomies of the Coastal Region of Rio de Janeiro

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Essential oils from Eugenia uniflora collected in different coastal phytophysiognomies of Rio de Janeiro showed notable chemodiversity. GC‐MS and GC‐FID analyses revealed nine chemotypes, mainly rich in curzerene and selina‐1,3,7(11)‐trien‐8‐one. ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the yield, color, and chemical composition of Eugenia uniflora ...

Differences in exoenzyme production and adherence ability of Candida spp. isolates from catheter, blood and oral cavity Diferenças na produção de exoenzimas e habilidade de aderência entre isolados de espécies de Candida provenientes do cateter, sangue e cavidade bucal

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2010
Phospholipase and proteinase production and the ability of adhesion to buccal epithelial cells (BEC) of 112 Candida isolates originated from oral cavity of HIV infected patients and from blood and catheter of intensive care unit patients were ...

Morphological and physiological changes induced by contact-dependent interaction between Candida albicans and Fusobacterium nucleatum

Scientific Reports, 2016
Candida albicans and Fusobacterium nucleatum are well-studied oral commensal microbes with pathogenic potential that are involved in various oral polymicrobial infectious diseases. Recently, we demonstrated that F.

Composition, Chemical Variability, and Anti‐inflammatory Activity of the Berry Essential Oil of Juniperus phoenicea L. var. Turbinata From Algeria

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The chemical composition of 66 oil samples isolated from the berries of individual trees of Juniperus phoenicea var. turbinata, collected in six locations from Algeria, was investigated by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection, gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry, and 13C‐nuclear magnetic resonance.

Activation of HIF-1α and LL-37 by commensal bacteria inhibits Candida albicans colonization

Nature Network Boston, 2015
Candida albicans colonization is required for invasive disease. Unlike humans, adult mice with mature intact gut microbiota are resistant to C. albicans gastrointestinal (GI) colonization, but the factors that promote C.

Novel Synthesis of the Antifungal Cyclic Lipopeptide Iturin A and Its Fluorinated Analog for Structure‐Activity Relationship Studies

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Iturin A is an antifungal lipopeptide with a wide range of applications. In this study, we present a novel synthesis of iturin A via enantiomeric synthesis of the β‐amino fatty acid and on‐resin cyclization. We also obtained the (S)‐epimer of iturin A, showing a dramatic loss of bioactivity, and a monofluorinated analog, which retained the bioactivity ...
