Farnesol in combination with N-acetylcysteine against staphylococcus epidermidis planktonic and biofilm cells [PDF]
Staphylococcus epidermidis is the most frequent cause of nosocomial sepsis and catheter-related infections, in which biofilm formation is considered to be the main virulence mechanism.

Farnesol is a 15‑carbon organic isoprenol synthesized by plants and mammals with anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective activities. We sought to determine whether farnesol treatment would result in protection against murine experimental ...

Farnesol modulation of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa in biofilm and planktonic forms
Biofilms are important to the virulence of human pathogenic fungi, and some molecules have been found to play key roles in the growth and regulation of fungal biofilms.

Asymmetric ephaptic inhibition between compartmentalized olfactory receptor neurons. [PDF]
In the Drosophila antenna, different subtypes of olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) housed in the same sensory hair (sensillum) can inhibit each other non-synaptically.

Preparation, characterization, and evaluation of the antimicrobial effects of farnesol- and tyrosol-bearing nanoniosomes on Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli [PDF]
Background. Recently, it has been found that tyrosol and farnesol can replace antibiotics due to their known antimicrobial and medicinal effects.

Articular cartilage may regenerate poorly after injury or during aging. In vitro, farnesol can modulate extracellular matrix synthesis and restore chondrocyte phenotypes by increasing type II collagen (COL II) and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) production. Here,

Confocal laser scanning microscopy analysis of S. epidermidis biofilms exposed to farnesol, vancomycin and rifampicin [PDF]
Staphylococcus epidermidis is the major bacterial species found in biofilm-related infections on indwelling medical devices. Microbial biofilms are communities of bacteria adhered to a surface and surrounded by an extracellular polymeric matrix. Biofilms

A farnesol derivative from Tanacetum aucheranum
Tanacetum aucheranum yielded a new farnesol derivative, 3,10-dihydroxy-5,8-diacetoxy-1(2),11(12)-dehydrojarnesol, and flavonoids. The structures of the compounds were determined by means of spectral methods.
