“…Moreover, she had no history of contact allergen or topical agents applied to her palms preceding the rash. Hot hand‐foot syndrome presents with red, tender palmoplantar nodules after exposure to P. aeruginosa in warm pools with low pH and low chlorine levels . Papular‐purpuric gloves and socks syndrome, usually seen with parvovirus B19 infection, presents with erythematous and purpuric papules on the dorsal, palmar, and plantar surfaces of distal extremities …”

“…aeruginosa infection can also occur following an abrasion or break in the skin, due to injury, surgery, or catheterization. Dermatological conditions range from minor events such as hot-tub dermatitis or folliculitis (Yu et al, 2007) to life threatening cases of necrotizing fascitis or cellulitis (Bodey et al, 1983;Tsekouras et al, 1998;Wortman, 1993). Infections with deep tissue damage especially in burn victims can spread to the bloodstream causing bacteremia and septicemia (Bodey et al, 1983).…”

This dissertation, written by Allison L. Adonizio, and entitled Anti-quorum sensing agents from south Florida medicinal plants and their attenuation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenicity, having been approved in respect to style and intellectual content, is referred to you for judgment.We have read this dissertation and recommend that it be approved. Each plant presented a distinct profile of effect on QS genes and signaling molecules, suggesting varying modes of action. Virulence attenuation was observed with marginal reduction of bacterial growth, suggesting quorum quenching mechanisms unrelated to static or cidal effects. Extracts of these plants were also investigated for their effects on P. aeruginosa killing of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Results were evaluated in both toxin-based and infection-based assays with P. aeruginosa strains PA01 and PA14. _____________________________Overall nematode mortality was reduced 50-90%. There was no indication of host toxicity, suggesting the potential for further development as anti-infectives. Using lowpressure chromatography and HPLC, two stereoisomeric ellagitannins, vescalagin and castalagin were isolated from an aqueous extract of C. erectus. Structures were confirmed via mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. Both ellagitannins were shown to decrease signal production, QS gene expression, and virulence factor production in P.aeruginosa. This study introduces a potentially new therapeutic direction for the treatment of bacterial infections. In addition, this is the first report of vescalagin and castalagin being isolated from C. erectus, and the first report of ellagitannin activity on the QS system.
