In the present study, we evaluated the antibacterial and anti-quorum sensing qualities of phillyrin. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of phillyrin with regard to Pseudomonas aeruginosa is 0.5 mg/ml. The production of virulence factors-such as rhamnolipid (&gt;78.69%), pyocyanin (&gt;85.94%), and elastase (&gt;89.95%)-that affect the pathogenicity of the P. aeruginosa strain PAO1 apparently declined in the presence of 0.25 mg/ml phillyrin. Biofilm formation decreased by 84.48%. In a Caenorhabditis elegans-Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection model, diseased worms lived longer (63.33%) in a phillyrin-containing medium than in a drug-free medium, and the drug did not directly kill the pathogen. Therefore, the present work suggests that phillyrin has potential as an antimicrobial agent for the control of infectious pathogens.

Phillyrin is an effective inhibitor of quorum sensing with potential as an anti-<i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> infection therapy
