Resveratrol showed various kinds of bioactivities, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer effects and, therefore, has been used widely as an important ingredient in medication, healthy foods and cosmetics. However, in nature, resveratrol usually exists at low content and more often exists as polydatin. Therefore, it becomes important to find the cost-effective and environmental-friendly way to transform polydatin to resveratrol. In this study, endophytes were isolated from the rhizome tissue of Reynoutria japonica and screened for transforming polydatin to resveratrol using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and confirmed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. A bacterium identified as Bacillus aryabhattai using 16S rRNA phylogenetic tree analysis showed highest transformation rate. The transforming conditions were optimized including substrate concentration, substrate addition time, culture temperature and inoculation ratio. Our results demonstrated that the bacteria isolated from R. japonica rhizome tissue showed high activity in transforming polydatin into resveratrol. Crude extract of R. japonica root and rhizome (RJE) was also tested as substrate and it was found that the transformation was significantly inhibited at 10.0 mg/mL RJE. Emodin at equivalent concentration of 10.0 mg/mL RJE showed no inhibition activity, and glucose content in RJE was trace and far from enough to exhibit the inhibitory activity. Successive solvent partition followed by an inhibition activity assay revealed that the ethyl acetate fraction showed the main inhibition activity. However, due to the coexistence of polydatin and compounds with inhibitory activity, the concentration of RJE can only be used at limited concentration as substrate.
