Opening Study on the Development of a New Biosensor for Metal Toxicity Based on Pseudomonas fluorescens Pyoverdine [PDF]
To date, different kinds of biosensing elements have been used effectively for environmental monitoring. Microbial cells seem to be well-suited for this task: they are cheap, adaptable to variable field conditions and give a measurable response to a ...

Iron Acquisition from Fe-Pyoverdine by Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Taking into account the strong iron competition in the rhizosphere and the high affinity of pyoverdines for Fe(III), these molecules are expected to interfere with the iron nutrition of plants, as they do with rhizospheric microbes.

<i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Biofilms in Cystic Fibrosis: Interactions, Methods, and Therapeutic Strategies. [PDF]
This review explores the role of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms in cystic fibrosis (CF) pathogenesis. Biofilms, the main bacterial lifestyle in CF lungs, are key in therapy failure, immune evasion, and chronic infection persistence. This review examines biofilm structure, emphasizing extracellular polymeric substances (Psl, Pel, alginate, eDNA) and ...

Patient-Specific Coculture of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa Enhances Epithelial Barrier Disruption and Virulence in CRS. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that is associated with polymicrobial infections, often involving S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. It is unclear whether the polymicrobial context plays a role in exacerbating epithelial damage, inflammation, and resistance to therapy. Methods S. aureus and P. aeruginosa (n =

The Burden of Antimicrobial-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates in Children With Cystic Fibrosis: Molecular Characterization and Genotyping Analysis. [PDF]
This study highlights the prevalence of multidrug‐ and carbapenem‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in pediatric cystic fibrosis patients, along with the presence of carbapenemase‐encoding genes and genetic profiles, suggesting clonal spread. These findings underscore the urgent need for surveillance and strategies to combat resistant strains and ...

Indole-Acetic Acid Impairs Pseudomonas aeruginosa Virulence and Alters Lung Infection in Mice. [PDF]
Screening for anti‐virulence activity exerted by tryptophan catabolites on laboratory and clinical strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed that Indoleacetic acid (IAA) inhibits motility and pigment production, downregulates PQS gene expression, while increases oxidative stress sensitivity.

Comparative genomics of isolates of a pseudomonas aeruginosa epidemic strain associated with chronic lung infections of cystic fibrosis patients [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the main cause of fatal chronic lung infections among individuals suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF). During the past 15 years, particularly aggressive strains transmitted among CF patients have been identified, initially in ...
