This study investigated the antibacterial activity of the plant alkaloid
tomatidine (TO) against Staphylococcus aureus grown in the presence of
Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Since the P. aeruginosa exoproduct
4-hydroxy-2-heptylquinoline-N-oxide (HQNO) is known to cause a respiratory
deficiency in S. aureus and respiratory-deficient S. aureus are known to be
hypersensitive to TO, we assessed kill kinetics of TO (8 ?g/ml) against S. aureus
in coculture with P. aeruginosa. Kill kinetics were also assessed using P.
aeruginosa mutants deficient in the production of different exoproducts and
quorum sensing-related compounds. After 24 h in coculture, TO increased the
killing of S. aureus by 3.4 log10 CFU/ml in comparison to that observed in a
coculture without TO. The effect of TO was abolished when S. aureus was in
coculture with the lasR rhlR, pqsA, pqsL, or lasA mutant of P. aeruginosa. The
bactericidal effect of TO against S. aureus in coculture with the pqsL mutant was
restored by supplemental HQNO. In an S. aureus monoculture, the combination of
HQNO and TO was bacteriostatic, indicating that the pqsL mutant produced an
additional factor required for the bactericidal effect. The bactericidal activity
of TO was also observed against a tobramycin-resistant methicillin-resistant S.
aureus (MRSA) in coculture with P. aeruginosa, and the addition of tobramycin
significantly suppressed the growth of both microorganisms. TO shows a strong
bactericidal effect against S. aureus when cocultured with P. aeruginosa. The
combination of TO and tobramycin may represent a new treatment approach for
cystic fibrosis patients frequently cocolonized by MRSA and P. aeruginosa.
