  • Lophirones B and C induce oxidative cellular death pathway in Acinetobacter baumannii by inhibiting DNA gyrase
  • Add time:08/11/2019         Source:sciencedirect.com

    We evaluated the inactivation of DNA gyrase on the oxidative stress response and sensitivity of A. baumannii to lophirones B and C. The sensitivity of parental and the mutant strains of A. baumannii to lophirones B and C was determined using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and time-kill sensitivity. Inactivation of sodB, katG, recA enhanced the sensitivity of A. baumannii to lophirones B and C. Furthermore, this inactivation increased the accumulation of superoxide anion radical and hydrogen peroxide in lophirones B and C-treated A. baumannii, which was reversed in the presence of thiourea. Inactivation of gyrA stalled lophirones B and C-mediated ROS accumulation in A. baumannii. In addition, lophirones B and C raised the Fe2+ contents of A. baumannii. Dipyridyl (Fe chelator) reversed the sensitivity of A. baumannii to lophirones B and C. Lophirones significantly lowered the NAD+/NADH ratio of A. baumannii. The results of this study revealed that the impact of DNA gyrase in lophirones B and C-mediated ROS accumulation, Fe2+ release and cell death.
