Long-term treatment with antibiotics gives rise to the evolution of multi-drug resistant bacteria which are hard to be treated. Virulence factors inhibitors depend on disarming of microbial pathogens through reducing expression of virulence factors, abolishing the pathogen capability to harm the host. In the present study, the influence of secnidazole on Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factors expression was characterized. Production of Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factors such as pyocyanin, pyoverdin, elastase, rhamnolipids, proteases and hemolysins was examined following treatment of bacteria with sub-inhibitory concentration of secnidazole. Interestingly, secnidazole showed a powerful inhibitory effect on Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factors. Our results were further confirmed using qRT-PCR showing that there was a significant decrease in the expression of quorum sensing genes; lasI, lasR, rhlI, rhlR, pqsA and pqsR that regulate expression of virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Moreover, in vivo experiment using mice as infection model showed that secnidazoletreated bacteria were less capable to kill mice as compared to untreated bacteria. Importantly, there was a significant reduction in mortality in mice injected with secnidazole-treated bacteria relative to mice inoculated with untreated bacteria. In summary, our data showed that secnidazole could play a role in attenuating Pseudomonas aeruginosa through reducing virulence factors production. Moreover, our data clearly suggest that secnidazole could be involved in the treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in order to control infection and lower the development of bacterial resistance to antibiotics.
