Isoferulic acid facilitates effective clearance of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae through targeting capsule. by Tingting Wang, Huaizhi Yang, Qiushuang Sheng, Ying Ding, Jian Zhang, Feng Chen, Jianfeng Wang, Lei Song, Xuming Deng

“…Here, we identified isoferulic acid (IFA), a natural phenolic acid compound widely present in traditional herbal medicines, as a potent broad-spectrum K. pneumoniae capsule inhibitor that suppresses capsule polysaccharide synthesis by increasing the energy status of bacteria. In this way, IFA remarkably reduced capsule thickness and impaired hypercapsule-associated hypermucoviscosity phenotype (HMV), thereby significantly sensitizing hvKP to complement-mediated bacterial killing and accelerating host cell adhesion and phagocytosis. …”
