In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a quorum sensing (QS) system regulates the expression of many virulence factors. N-acyl homoserine lactone (HSL) is the signal molecule of QS system. In order to find a novel HSL binder to interfere with QS signaling and to attenuate P. aeruginosa virulence, an amino lactam surrogate (ALS) of HSL was used as a target to screen HSL aptamers with the technique of systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX). Eight HSL aptamers with high affinities for 3O-C12-HSL (20 nM ≤ Kd < 35 nM) or C4-HSL (25 nM < Kd < 50 nM) were finally obtained. In vitro QS-inhibiting study of P. aeruginosa showed that HSL aptamers could inhibit virulence in a dose-dependent manner. ALSap-8 which bound C4-HSL primarily acted on the rhl system and inhibited the secretion of pyocyanin. ALSap-5 which bound 3O-C12-HSL not only showed strong inhibitory activity on biofilm formation as well as secretions of LasA protease and LasB elastase, but also reduced pyocyanin secretion. Since the las system is capable of activating the rhl system mildly, we speculated that ALSap-5 can simultaneously interfere with the las and rhl systems. High-affinity aptamers against HSL in this study are novel QS and virulence-inhibitors, and may have potential as drug candidates for the treatment of P. aeruginosa infection.

<P>This communication describes for the first time how nano-size particles, sensitized with natural dye molecules of anthocyanin, can be used as catalysts in photo-degradation of gram negative Escherichia coli bacteria in water. The naked ZnO nano-particles degraded up to 83% of the bacteria under solar simulator light, while the dye-sensitized particles increased the bacterial loss by similar to 10%. Solar simulator light includes about 5% of UV tail (shorter than 400 nm) which means that both UV and visible light (longer than 400 nm) radiations could be involved. When a cut-off filter was used, the naked ZnO caused only 40% bacterial loss, in accordance with earlier literature that described killing of bacteria with ZnO particles both in the dark and under light. With the cut-off filter, the sensitized ZnO particles caused higher than 90% bacterial loss, which confirms sensitization of the ZnO particles to visible light. Moreover, the results show that the catalyzed photo-degradation process causes mineralization of the bacteria and their organic internal components which leach out by killing. The catalyst can be recovered and reused losing similar to 10% of its activity each time due to mineralization of the dye molecules. However, catalyst activity can be totally regained by re-sensitizing it with the anthocyanin dye. The effects of different experimental conditions, such as reaction temperature, pH, bacterial concentration and catalyst amount together with nutrient broth and saline media, will be discussed together with the role of the sensitizer.
