ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate effect of emodin on cell membrane, protein and nucleic acid synthesis of MRSA41577, and systematically investigate the anti-bacterial mechanism of emodin.Methods TTC assay was used to detected the anti-bacterial activity of emodin on MRSA 41577. Conductivity and macromolecular were detected to investigate the effect of emodin on MRSA41577 cell membrane .SDS-PAGE was used to detect the effect of emodin on the soluble protein synthesis.DAPI staining was used to detect the effect of emodin on nucleic acid synthesis.UV-visible spectrophotometric was used to detected the interaction between emodin and DNA.ResuIts Emodin has significant inhibitory activity on MRSA41577, and the minimum inhibitory concentration was 8μg/mL.After treated with 8 μg/mL emodin for 6h, compared with control group, the macromolecular and conductivity improved (71.48 ±0.026)% (P<0.01) and (2.39 ±0.102)%(P<0.05), sepreatly.Compared with control, after treated with 8μg/ml emodin for 16h,the protein reduced 32.8%, and the contents of DNA and RNA reduced (4.82 ±1.06)%(P<0.05,) and (6.67 ±0.36)%(P<0.053).The UV-visible spectrophotometric results indicated that emodin could integrate with DNA through hydrogen bond.ConcIusion The anti-bacterial mechanism of emodin mainly through damage the cell membrane , inhibit the replication and transcription of DNA through hydrogen bond , inhibit the synthesis of protein, and thus inhibit the biological function of bacteria.
