Strain‐specific quorum‐sensing responses determine virulence properties in Vibrio anguillarum
Abstract Bacterial populations communicate using quorum‐sensing (QS) molecules and switch on QS regulation to engage in coordinated behaviour such as biofilm formation or virulence. The marine fish pathogen Vibrio anguillarum harbours several QS systems, and our understanding of its QS regulation is still fragmentary.

Decisive aspects in the masstige consumption
This study investigated the mass consumption under the lens of ethical egoism, closely related to pleasure and associated with differentiation, exclusivity, functional (attributes), status, and tradition constructs. The theoretical framework contemplated

The role of RNA regulators, quorum sensing and c‐di‐GMP in bacterial biofilm formation
Quorum Sensing, cyclic diguanylate, small non‐coding RNAs and ribonucleases all have an impact on biofilm formation. These regulators are interconnected and operate in consortium to promote bacterial life‐cycle changes between planktonic cells and biofilm communities.

Abstract Quorum sensing is a microbial signaling process that relies on the production, release, and response to extracellular signaling molecules called autoinducers. This Review covers quorum‐sensing systems controlled by a pyrazine‐type autoinducer, 3,5‐dimethyl‐pyrazin‐2‐ol (DPO).

Can Non‐Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae Reduce a Cholera Infection?
Abstract Vibrio cholerae, is the causative agent of cholera, that infects millions, annually. Chironomids are aquatic insects that host V. cholerae. Toxigenic strains produce cholera toxin (CT) which is the main virulence factor that causes cholera symptoms. In contrast to other bacterial pathogens, V.

Do lixo ao luxo: Ecoempreendedorismo [PDF]
Concerns have been increasing in recent years due to environmental factors due to the remarkable landscape and climate changes in the various environments. This article was developed to recycle solid waste in toys carried out with students from Alfa College in Arapiraca, where garbage collection was used at source segregation methodology, where the ...

Have You Heard of Bonnie Bassler? A Historical Perspective on a Remarkable Career
Abstract The area of chemical communication in bacteria has grown explosively since the end of the 20th century. Among a number of key individuals and seminal findings that broke open this area of microbiology, the contributions of Bonnie Bassler and her colleagues are immense and multi‐layered.

Feathers and the Making of Luxury Experiences at the Sixteenth‐Century Spanish Court☆
Abstract This article charts the activities of featherworkers (plumajeros) at the Habsburg court in Madrid. Drawing on archival records, objects, and paintings from sixteenth‐century Spain, I argue that royal featherworkers' skills, wit, and intricacy in the transformation of materials established feathers as luxury items.

In this review, we aim to explain the direct or indirect regulatory mechanisms of c‐di‐GMP in bacteria, focusing on the study of c‐di‐GMP in Vibrio spp. and in flagella, which are our research subjects. Abstract Typical second messengers include cyclic AMP (cAMP), cyclic GMP (cGMP), and inositol phosphate.

Quadruple quorum-sensing inputs control Vibrio cholerae virulence and maintain system robustness. [PDF]
Bacteria use quorum sensing (QS) for cell-cell communication to carry out group behaviors. This intercellular signaling process relies on cell density-dependent production and detection of chemical signals called autoinducers (AIs).
