| Name | 8-Epidiosbulbin E acetate |
| Description | 8-Epidiosbulbin E acetate is a abundant furan compound found in Dioscorea bulbifera L., exhibiting broad-spectrum plasmid elimination activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria, and can be used to induce liver injury models in mice. |
| In vitro | A novel plasmid-curing compound was identified as 8-Epidiosbulbin E acetate (EEA) (norditerpene) on the basis of modern spectroscopic analysis and X-ray crystallography. EEA exhibited broad-spectrum plasmid-curing activity against multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, including vancomycin-resistant enterococci. EEA cured antibiotic resistance plasmids (R-plasmids) from clinical isolates of Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Shigella sonnei and Pseudomonas aeruginosa with 12-48% curing efficiency. The reference plasmids of Bacillus subtilis (pUB110), E. coli (RP4), P. aeruginosa (RIP64) and Salmonella typhi (R136) were cured with efficiency ranging from 16% to 64%. EEA-mediated R-plasmid curing decreased the minimal inhibitory concentration of antibiotics against MDR bacteria, thus making antibiotic treatment more effective. |
