Serratia marcescens is commonly noted to be an opportunistic pathogen and is often associated with nosocomial infections. In addition to its high antibiotic resistance, it exhibits a wide range of virulence factors that confer pathogenicity. Targeting quorum sensing (QS) presents a potential therapeutic strategy for treating bacterial infections caused by S. marcescens, as it regulates the expression of various virulence factors. Inhibiting QS can effectively neutralize S. marcescens' bacterial virulence without exerting stress on bacterial growth, facilitating bacterial eradication by the immune system. In this study, the antibacterial and anti-virulence properties of eugenol against Serratia sp. were investigated. Eugenol exhibited inhibitory effects on the growth of Serratia, with a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 16.15 mM. At sub-inhibitory concentrations, eugenol also demonstrated antiadhesive and eradication activities by inhibiting biofilm formation. Furthermore, it reduced prodigiosin production and completely inhibited protease production. Additionally, eugenol effectively decreased swimming and swarming motilities in Serratia sp. This study demonstrated through molecular modeling, docking and molecular dynamic that eugenol inhibited biofilm formation and virulence factor production in Serratia by binding to the SmaR receptor and blocking the formation of the HSL-SmaR complex. The binding of eugenol to SmaR modulates biofilm formation and virulence factor production by Serratia sp. These findings highlight the potential of eugenol as a promising agent to combat S. marcescens infections by targeting its virulence factors through quorum sensing inhibition.
