Proteomic study of the inhibitory effects of tannic acid on MRSA biofilm by Yang Miao, Wang Shuang, Qu Qianwei, Liu Xin, Peng Wei, Yang Hai, Zhou Yonghui, Yu Xinbo

“…Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were screened using proteomic and biological information analyses, and their transcriptional levels were verified using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.ResultsThe MIC of TA was 0.625 mg/mL, whereas 1/2 MIC (0.3125 mg/mL) of TA significantly inhibited biofilm formation without affecting the bacterial growth (p &lt; 0.01) and prevented the formation of a complete three-dimensional biofilm structure. Using 1/2 MIC of TA, 208 DEPs were identified, of which 127 were upregulated and 81 were downregulated. …”
