The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Salmonella serotypes, such as Typhimurium, and Salmonella's ability to form biofilms contribute to their resistance and persistence in host and non-host environments. New strategies are needed to treat or prevent Salmonella infections. This work aimed to determine the effect of the bovine lactoferrin (bLF) and lactoferrin chimera (LFchimera) in preventing or disrupting biofilms formed on abiotic surfaces or Caco-2 cells by Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 14028 or an MDR strain. The inhibitory activity of planktonic bacteria, prevention of biofilm formation, and destruction of biofilms of S. Typhimurium (ATCC 14028 or MDR strain) on the abiotic surface and Caco-2 cells of bLF and LFchimera were quantified by CFU/ml and visualized by microscopy using Giemsa-stained samples. bLF (75-1000µM) and LFchimera (1-20µM) inhibited more than 95% of S. Typhimurium planktonic growth cultures (ATCC 14028 and MDR). In addition, bLF (600, 800, and 1000 µM) and LFchimera (10 and 20µM) prevented more than 98% of S.

The OAS/RNase L pathway is thus an important antiviral pathway and viruses have devised strategies to circumvent OAS activation. OAS enzymes are divided into four classes according to size: small (OAS1), medium (OAS2), and large (OAS3) that consist of one, two, and three OAS domains, respectively, and the OAS-like protein (OASL) that consists of one OAS domain and tandem domains similar to ubiquitin. Early investigation of the OAS enzymes hinted at the recognition of dsRNA by OAS, but due to size differences amongst OAS family members combined with the lack of structural information on full-length OAS2 and OAS3, the regulation of OAS catalytic activity by dsRNA was not well understood. However, the recent biophysical studies of OAS have highlighted overall structure and domain organization.

The results demonstrated a major efficacy of mbLf in inhibiting pathogenic bacteria and in exerting anti-invasive and anti-survival activities with respect to cbLf and wbc. Furthermore, mbLf lowered IL-6 levels to those of uninfected cells, while a less evident decrease was observed upon cbLf treatment.
