Abstract
Rullia tuberosa L. is used for treatment of diabetes mellitus, anti-inflammation, etc. However, its hypoglycaemic and anti inflammatory activities has not been investigated so far. In the present study, the α-glucosidase inhibitory, anti inflammatory activities of the extract of this plant were investigated. Our results showed that the crude extract as well as ethyl acetate and methanol fractions showed α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with IC50 of 15.84, 4.73 and 8.27 µg/ml, respectively. In addition, the hexane and ethyl acetate fractions are capable of inhibiting LPS-induced NO production with IC50 of 17.41 and 23.95 µg/mL, respectively. From the ethyl acetate and methanol fractions, eight compounds, including isobargaptol 5-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), syringaresinol (2), catechin (3), pulmatin (4), stigmast-4-en-3-on (4), verbascoside (5), hydroxymethylfurfural (6), rutin (7), and homoplantaginin (8) were extracted and isolated. Their chemical structures were elucidated by spectroscopic method including MS, 1 D and 2 D- NMR and comparison with the literature values.

Abstract
One important feature of the major opportunistic human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is its extraordinary ability to rapidly acquire resistance to antibiotics. Genomic studies reveal that S. aureus carries many virulence and resistance genes located in mobile genetic elements, suggesting that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays a critical role in S. aureus evolution. However, a full and detailed description of the methodology used to study HGT in S. aureus is still lacking, especially regarding natural transformation, which has been recently reported in this bacterium. This work describes three protocols that are useful for the in vitro investigation of HGT in S. aureus: conjugation, phage transduction, and natural transformation. To this aim, the cfr gene (chloramphenicol/florfenicol resistance), which confers the Phenicols, Lincosamides, Oxazolidinones, Pleuromutilins, and Streptogramin A (PhLOPSA)-resistance phenotype, was used. Understanding the mechanisms through which S. aureus transfers genetic materials to other strains is essential to comprehending the rapid acquisition of resistance and helps to clarify the modes of dissemination reported in surveillance programs or to further predict the spreading mode in the future.
