Exploring AI-2-mediated interspecies communications within rumen microbial communities [PDF]
Background The rumen is an ecosystem with a complex microbial microflora in which microbes initiate biofilm formation by attaching to plant surfaces for plant degradation and are capable of converting feed to nutrients and energy via microbial processes.

LsrB-based and temperature-dependent identification of bacterial AI-2 receptor [PDF]
The luxS gene is required for autoinducer-2 (AI-2) synthesis in many bacterial species. AI-2 is taken up by a specific receptor to regulate multiple bacterial activities.

The LuxS‐dependent autoinducer AI‐2 controls the expression of an ABC transporter that functions in AI‐2 uptake in Salmonella typhimurium [PDF]
In a process called quorum sensing, bacteria communicate with one another using secreted chemical signalling molecules termed autoinducers. A novel autoinducer called AI‐2, originally discovered in the quorum‐sensing bacterium Vibrio harveyi, is made by many species of Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive bacteria.

Diet Shift May Trigger LuxS/AI-2 Quorum Sensing in Rumen Bacteria. [PDF]
Recent studies have revealed that LuxS/AI-2 quorum sensing (QS) is the most universal cell-to-cell communication in rumen bacteria; however, it remains unknown how they respond to nutritional stress from a diet shift. This study aimed to explore whether a diet shift could trigger rumen bacterial LuxS/AI-2 QS and its influences on rumen fermentation ...

Regulatory Mechanisms of the LuxS/AI-2 System and Bacterial Resistance. [PDF]
The quorum-sensing (QS) system is an intercellular cell-cell communication mechanism that controls the expression of genes involved in a variety of cellular processes and that plays critical roles in the adaption and survival of bacteria in their environment.

Regulation of bacteria population behaviors by AI-2 “consumer cells” and “supplier cells” [PDF]
Background Autoinducer-2 (AI-2) is a universal signal molecule and enables an individual bacteria to communicate with each other and ultimately control behaviors of the population.

Pulse Rate Variability Analysis Using Remote Photoplethysmography Signals
Pulse rate variability (PRV) refers to the change in the interval between pulses in the blood volume pulse (BVP) signal acquired using photoplethysmography (PPG). PRV is an indicator of the health status of an individual’s autonomic nervous system.

Face Biometric Spoof Detection Method Using a Remote Photoplethysmography Signal
Spoofing attacks in face recognition systems are easy because faces are always exposed. Various remote photoplethysmography-based methods to detect face spoofing have been developed. However, they are vulnerable to replay attacks.

AI-2-mediated signalling in bacteria [PDF]
Success in nature depends upon an ability to perceive and adapt to the surrounding environment. Bacteria are not an exception; they recognize and constantly adjust to changing situations by sensing environmental and self-produced signals, altering gene expression accordingly.
