Bacterial quorum sensing（QS） molecules are involved in the coordination of certain behaviors such as biofilm formation, virulence and antibiotic resistance. QS molecules（autoinducers） and their corresponding receptors have been recognized as important therapeutic targets for drug-resistant infections and biofilm-associated infections（BAI）. This study assessed the multiple biological effects of h.m.gentisic acid y-lactone（hgAL）, a furanone derivative. The anti-QS and anti-biofilm effects of hgAL against PAO1 strain were evaluated using CLSm, SEm, hPLC and other bioch.m.cal methods The results showed that hgAL could effectively inhibit the production of pyocyanin and extracellular matrix, as well as reduce the adherence ability and biofilm formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Inhibition of virulence is attributed to the suppressive effect of hgAL on biosynthesis of 3-oxo-C12-hSLand C4-hSL（two kinds of QS signaling molecules in P. aeruginosa）. Our results support hgAL as a potential agent for prevention of BAI in the healthcare settings.

The global antibiotic resistance crisis necessitates urgent solutions. One innovative approach involves potentiating antibiotics and non-antibiotic drugs with adjuvants or boosters. A major drawback of these membrane-active boosters is their limited biocompatibility, as they struggle to differentiate between prokaryotic and eukaryotic membranes. This study reports the ch.m.cal biology investigation of a dual-action oligoamidine(OA1) booster with a glutathione-triggered decomposition mechanism. OA1, when combined with other antimicrobial molecules, exhibits a triple-targeting mechanism including cell membrane disruption, DNA targeting, and intracellular enzyme inhibition. This multi-targeting mechanism not only enhances the in vitro and in vivo eradication of antibiotic-resistant “ESKAPE” pathogens, but also suppresses the development of bacterial resistance. Furthermore, OA1 maintains its activity in bacterial cells by creating an oxidative environment, while it quickly decomposes in mammalian cells due to high glutathione levels. These mechanistic insights and design principles may provide a feasible approach to develop novel antimicrobial agents and effective anti-resistance combination therapies.
