Popis: | The stilbene tapinarof is a drug used to treat psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Efficacy is thought to arise from its regulation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 signaling pathways, which have also been linked to the severity of inflammatory bowel diseases. Tapinarof is produced by the gammaproteobacterial Photorhabdus genus, which infects insects and humans. Consequently, Photorhabdus represents a model to probe tapinarof structural and functional transformations. Here, we demonstrate that Photorhabdus transforms tapinarof into novel drug metabolism products that kill inflammatory bacteria. We show that a cupin contributes to the conversion of tapinarof and related dietary stilbenes into novel dimers. One dimer has activity against MRSA and VRE, whereas another undergoes spontaneous cyclization events to construct a cyclopropane bridge-containing hexacyclic framework that exhibits activity against Mycobacterium. Consistent with the functional transformations, these dimers lack efficacy in a colitis mouse model, whereas the monomer reduces disease symptoms. |
