A Comprehensive Review of the Multitarget Effects of Subinhibitory Concentrations of Essential Oils Against Salmonella. [PDF]
Compr Rev Food Sci Food SafABSTRACT Essential oils (EOs) exhibit antimicrobial activity against foodborne pathogens due to their chemical composition. This review investigates the mechanisms of action of EOs at subinhibitory concentrations against Salmonella strains. Even at subinhibitory concentrations, EOs induce cellular stress and modulate bacterial metabolism. EOs interfere

Microbead-Encapsulated Luminescent Bioreporter Screening of P. aeruginosa via Its Secreted Quorum-Sensing Molecules [PDF]
BiosensorsPseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic Gram-negative bacterium that remains a prevalent clinical and environmental challenge. Quorum-sensing (QS) molecules are effective biomarkers in pinpointing the presence of P. aeruginosa.

Autoinducers act as biological timers in Vibrio harveyi. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Quorum sensing regulates cell density-dependent phenotypes and involves the synthesis, excretion and detection of so-called autoinducers. Vibrio harveyi strain ATCC BAA-1116 (recently reclassified as Vibrio campbellii), one of the best-characterized ...

Quorum regulated latent environmental cells of toxigenic Vibrio cholerae and their role in cholera outbreaks [PDF]
Gut PathogensBackground Diverse bacterial group behaviors are controlled by quorum sensing, a regulatory network of bacterial gene expression based on cell density, and involving communication through chemical signal molecules called autoinducers.

Black Queen Hypothesis, partial privatization, and quorum sensing evolution.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Microorganisms produce costly cooperative goods whose benefit is partially shared with nonproducers, called 'mixed' goods. The Black Queen Hypothesis predicts that partial privatization has two major evolutionary implications.

Pharmaceuticals, 2023 Autoinducers AI-1 and AI-2 play an important role in bacterial quorum sensing (QS), a form of chemical communication between bacteria. The autoinducer N-octanoyl-L-Homoserinehomoserine lactone (C8-HSL) serves as a major inter- and intraspecies ...

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2022 Quorum sensing (QS) is a type of cell-to-cell communication that is influenced by an increase in signaling molecules known as autoinducers, which is correlated to the increase in the density of microbial communities. In this review, we aim to discuss and

The Autoinducer-2 Exporter Superfamily [PDF]
Microbial Physiology, 2010 The TqsA (YdgG) protein of <i>Escherichia coli</i> has been shown to export the autoinducer-2 (AI-2) molecule, a furanosyl borate diester that bears little resemblance to previously characterized biological molecules. TqsA belongs to a large superfamily, the AI-2 exporter (AI-2E) superfamily, of putative transporters with no other ...
