Nitric oxide regulation of bacterial biofilms
Abstract
Biofilms are surface-associated, multicellular communities of bacteria. Once established, they are extremely difficult to eradicate by antimicrobial treatment. It has been demonstrated in many species that biofilm formation may be regulated by the diatomic signaling molecule nitric oxide (NO). Although this is still a relatively new area of research, we review here the literature reporting an effect of NO on bacterial biofilm formation, emphasizing dose-dependent responses to NO concentrations when possible. Where it has been investigated, the underlying NO sensors or signaling pathways are also discussed. Most of the examples of NO-mediated biofilm regulation have been documented with exogenously applied NO, but we also survey possible natural sources of NO in biofilm regulation, including endogenously generated NO. Finally, because of the apparent broad-spectrum, antibiofilm effects of NO, NO-releasing materials and prodrugs have also been explored in this minireview.

Nitrite can exert pH-dependent antimicrobial effects via formation of reactive secondary nitrogen oxides that can disrupt aerobic respiration, inhibit bacterial acid production, and disrupt biofilm formation.
“Nitrite can exert pH-dependent antimicrobial effects[204,232,233] via formation of reactive secondary nitrogen oxides that can disrupt aerobic respiration[234], inhibit bacterial acid production, and disrupt biofilm formation[235–237].”

High salivary nitrite concentrations may exert antimicrobial effects elsewhere in the oral cavity and gut, possibly disrupting community composition or function of biologically beneficial populations of nitrate-reducing bacteria.
“Yet, despite these localized, periodontal effects on microbial populations, high salivary nitrite concentrations may also exert antimicrobial effects elsewhere in the oral cavity and gut, possibly disrupting community composition or function of biologically beneficial populations of nitrate-reducing bacteria[204,232–237].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
