چکیده مقاله :
اندوفیت‌ها اغلب به‌صورت قارچ یا باکتری هستند که در فضاهای بین سلولی یا بافت‌های آوندی گیاهان میزبان زندگی می‌کنند. اندوفیت‌های گیاهان دارویی مانند خوشاریزه با تولید ترکیبات و متابولیت‌های ثانویه و ایجاد اثرات ضد میکروبی به‌عنوان یک نگهدارنده ضد قارچ و ضد میکروبی در مواد غذایی استفاده می‌شوند. مطالعه حاضر به‌منظور جداسازی اندوفیت‌های باکتریایی و تعیین خواص اثر مهاری آن ها بر روی باکتری استرپتوکوکوس آگالاکتیه و قارچ کریپتوکوکوس نئوفورمنس طراحی و انجام شد. اجزای گیاه بعد از جمع‌آوری از اﺳﺘﺎن ﭼﻬﺎرﻣﺤﺎل و ﺑﺨﺘﯿﺎری واﻗﻊ در اﯾﺮان، ضدعفونی شدند. اندوفیت‌های باکتریایی بعد از کشت اجزای گیاه بر روی محیط‌های YEA و PA جدا شدند. خواص ضدباکتریایی و ضد قارچی آن‌ها در بررسی عوامل ساختاری (توسط کلروفرم) و همچنین بررسی متابولیت‌های ترشحی مورد مطالعه قرار گرفت. آزمایش آنتی‌بیوگرام با روش انتشار دیسک انجام گرفت. از قسمت‌های مختلف برگ، ساقه و ریشه گیاه خوشاریزه در مجموع 12 اندوفیت باکتریایی جدا گردید. اندوفیت‌های گیاه دارویی خوشاریزه بر باکتری استرپتوکوکوس آگالاکتیه و قارچ کریپتوکوکوس نئوفورمنس اثرات مهاری مطلوبی را از خود بروز دادند. به‌طور کلی متابولیت‌های ترشحی حاصل از اندوفیت‌های جدا شده از این گیاه تا اثرات مهاری قدرتمندتری را نسبت به عوامل ساختاری بر علیه پاتوژن‌های مذکور از خود بروز دادند. نتایج حاصل از این پژوهش حاکی از اثر بخشی و توانمدی بالقوه اندوفیت‌های باکتریایی گیاه خوشاریزه در مهار پاتوژن‌های انسانی است.
چکیده انگلیسی:
Endophytes are fungi, bacteria, or yeast symbionts that live in the intercellular spaces or vascular tissues of host plants. The Echinophora platyloba endophytes with production of seondray metabolites and compunend has antifungal and antibacterial properties and prolnages the shelf-time food. The present study was designed to isolate and evaluate the effects of Echinophora platyloba bacterial endophytes and their antifungal and antibacterial properties on Streptococcus agalactiae and Cryptococcus neoformans. Plant components were randomly collected from Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, Iran, and then cleaned and sterilized. Bacterial endophytes were isolated after culturing plant components in YEA and PA media and the antimicrobial properties of endophytes were investigated by studying structural factors (by chloroform) as well as endophyte metabolites. A total of 12 bacterial endophytes were isolated from different parts of leaves, stems and roots of Echinophora platyloba and showed favorable inhibitory effects on Streptococcus agalactiae and Cryptococcus neoformans. In general, secretory metabolites derived from bacterial endophytes showed stronger inhibitory effects than structural factors against these pathogens. The results of this study indicate the efficacy and potential of Echinophora platyloba bacterial endophytes in inhibiting human pathogens.
