In vitro and in vivo antibacterial activities of cranberry press cake extracts alone or in combination with β-lactams against Staphylococcus aureus

Abstract: BackgroundCranberry fruits possess many biological activities partly due to their various phenolic compounds; however the underlying modes of action are poorly understood. We studied the effect of cranberry fruit extracts on the gene expression of Staphylococcus aureus to identify specific cellular processes involved in the antibacterial action.MethodsTranscriptional profiles of four S. aureus strains grown in broth supplemented or not with 2 mg/ml of a commercial cranberry preparation (Nutricran®90) were comp… Show more

“…Ethanol extraction of pomaces (pressed cakes) from fresh fruits also produced a cranberry fraction (FC111) modulating the same marker genes as demonstrated by qPCR. S. aureus cell surface disruption by cranberry is also supported by work from Wu et al (2008) and by cell wall biosynthesis assays (Diarra et al, 2013). Besides, it was noted that NC90 and FC111 also modulated the expression of some S. aureus genes (like lytM , Figure 1) that respond to membrane depolarization, as provoked by carbonyl cyanide m -chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and daptomycin (Muthaiyan et al, 2008).…”

“…Based on our own experience, commercially available cranberry products like Nutricran®90 (NC90) and some of our own cranberry extracts yielded stronger growth inhibition effects against Gram positive pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus (Diarra et al, 2013), Listeria monocytogenes (Block et al, 2012), and Clostridium perfringens (Delaquis et al, 2010), although the minimal inhibitory concentrations of the cranberry products were several times higher than that of conventional antibiotics such as penicillin. Similarly to work done with E. coli , transcriptional analyses by microarrays allowed determining the modes of action of the cranberry product NC90 against S. aureus (Diarra et al, 2013).…”

“…The greatest risk lays in development of antibiotic resistant bacteria, but it also presents an obstacle for organic milk production. Many subclinical mastitis treatment studies [1,2] proposed alternatives to conventional antimicrobial treatment solutions. Propolis is a resinous mixture that honeybees collect from trees and various plants.…”
