Black sea cucumber (Holothuria atra Jaeger, 1833) rescues Pseudomonas aeruginosa-infected Caenorhabditis elegans via reduction of pathogen virulence factors and enhancement of host immunity

Abstract: Materials and methods:Here, we utilized the Caenorhabditis elegans-P. aeruginosa 43 infection model to assess the anti-infective properties of H. atra. We conducted the C. 44 elegans-P. aeruginosa slow killing assay to isolate a fraction with capable of conferring 45 survival to pathogen-infected worms, followed by a series of tests to assess the 46 anti-virulence and immune-related properties of the sea cucumber bioactive fraction. 47 Results: The H. atra methanol extract improved survival of infected worms w… Show more
