abstract = "Aims: To evaluate the anti-staphylococcal effects of lectins isolated from bark (MuBL), heartwood (MuHL) and leaves (MuLL) of Myracrodruon urundeuva. Methods and Results: The lectins were evaluated for: effects on growth, aggregation, haemolytic activity and biofilm-forming ability of Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates nonresistant (8325-4) and multidrug resistant (LAC USA300); interference with the expression of virulence genes (hla, rnaIII and spa) of the Agr system of S. aureus; and synergistic effect with the antibiotics cefoxitin and cefotaxime. MuBL, MuHL and MuLL reduced growth (minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC): 12·5–50 µg ml−1) and viability (minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC): 100 µg ml−1) of 8325-4 and LAC USA300 cells. MuLL (at ½MIC and MIC) reduced LAC USA300 agglutination. The lectins did not interfere with haemolytic activity and expression of hla, rnaIII and spa genes. Only MuHL was able to reduce the biofilm production by 8325-4 (50–400 µg ml−1) and LAC USA300 (400 µg ml−1). Conclusion: The M. urundeuva lectins showed antibacterial activity against nonresistant and resistant clinical isolates of S. aureus and synergistic effects with antibiotics in reducing growth and biofilm formation. Significance and Impact of the Study: This work reports bioactive molecules capable of acting as anti-staphylococcal agents, since there are increasing reports of multiresistant isolates of this bacterium.",

N2 - Aims: To evaluate the anti-staphylococcal effects of lectins isolated from bark (MuBL), heartwood (MuHL) and leaves (MuLL) of Myracrodruon urundeuva. Methods and Results: The lectins were evaluated for: effects on growth, aggregation, haemolytic activity and biofilm-forming ability of Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates nonresistant (8325-4) and multidrug resistant (LAC USA300); interference with the expression of virulence genes (hla, rnaIII and spa) of the Agr system of S. aureus; and synergistic effect with the antibiotics cefoxitin and cefotaxime. MuBL, MuHL and MuLL reduced growth (minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC): 12·5–50 µg ml−1) and viability (minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC): 100 µg ml−1) of 8325-4 and LAC USA300 cells.
