Abstract
We evaluated the anti-biofilm formation and anti-inflammatory activity of Hovenia
monofloral honey (HMH) against Enterococcus faecalis.
Co-culture of HMH with E. faecalis attenuated the biofilm
formation of E. faecalis on a polystyrene surface. In addition,
HMH effectively eradicated the established E. faecalis biofilm.
HMH significantly attenuated E. faecalis growth but did not
affect the production of extracellular polymeric substances on E.
faecalis, indicating that reduction of E. faecalis
biofilm is a result of HMH-mediated killing of E. faecalis.
Furthermore, we found that HMH can effectively attenuate E.
faecalis-induced expression of a proinflammatory interleukin-8
(IL-8) in HT-29 cells. Interestingly, treatment of HMH significantly attenuated
the E. faecalis-mediated expression of Toll-like receptor-2
(TLR-2) and its adaptor molecules, myeloid differentiation primary response 88
(MyD88), in HT-29 cells. In addition, E. faecalis-induced
mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) phosphorylation was significantly
attenuated by HMH administration. Furthermore, HMH-mediated anti-inflammatory
efficacy (0.2 mg/mL of HMHs) had an equal extent of inhibitory efficacy as 5
μM of MyD88 inhibitor to attenuate E. faecalis-mediated
IL-8 expression in HT-29 cells. These results suggest that HMH could effectively
inhibit E. faecalis-mediated gastrointestinal inflammation
through regulating the TLR-2/MyD88/MAPKs signaling pathways. Collectively, our
data suggest that HMH could be developed as a potential natural agent to control
E. faecalis-mediated biofilm formation and
inflammation.
