Lipophilic diterpenoids from Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen) have reported antimicrobial potential, but their effects on P. aeruginosa biofilm phenotypes, motility, and antibiotic susceptibility remain poorly defined.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Five Danshen-derived compounds were tested for antibacterial activity, biofilm modulation, and motility inhibition in P. aeruginosa PAO1 and two MDR clinical isolates (designated XCH-MDR-01 and XCH-MDR-02). Antibacterial activity was negligible (MIC\u202f&amp;gt;\u202f256\u202f\u00b5mol L\u22121). Dihydrotanshinone I and tanshinone I enhanced PAO1 biofilm formation (20%\u201330%) but inhibited biofilm formation in MDR isolates (40%\u201350%) and disrupted established biofilms (50%\u201360% at 50\u202f\u00b5mol L\u22121). Confocal microscopy confirmed reduced biofilm density and altered architecture in MDR isolates, contrasting with enhanced biofilms in PAO1. Motility was suppressed in MDR isolates but unaffected in PAO1. qPCR showed strain-specific regulation of wspR and pslA, with upregulation in PAO1 (2\u20133-fold) and downregulation (\u223c50%) in XCH-MDR-01. Co-treatment with dihydrotanshinone\u202fI or tanshinone\u202fI reduced ceftazidime MICs by 4\u20138-fold in MDR isolates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
