Quorum Sensing and Quorum Quenching with a Focus on Cariogenic and Periodontopathic Oral Biofilms

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2022
Numerous in vitro studies highlight the role of quorum sensing in the pathogenicity and virulence of biofilms. This narrative review discusses general principles in quorum sensing, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative models and the influence of ...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Quorum Sensing.

open access: yesAdvances in Experimental Medicine and Biology, 2022
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, like many bacteria, uses chemical signals to communicate between cells in a process called quorum sensing (QS). QS allows groups of bacteria to sense population density and, in response to changing cell densities, to coordinate behaviors. The P.

The atypical quorum sensing system of classical Brucella species [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology
Brucella species are notorious pathogens of animals and humans and cause significant morbidity and economic losses globally. These hardy bacteria have evolved to survive and replicate in host cells, particularly macrophages, and have developed a ...

Quorum sensing in human gut and food microbiomes: Significance and potential for therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Human gut and food microbiomes interact during digestion. The outcome of these interactions influences the taxonomical composition and functional capacity of the resident human gut microbiome, with potential consequential impacts on health and disease ...

Bacterial Quorum Sensing and Microbial Community Interactions

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Many bacteria use a cell-cell communication system called quorum sensing to coordinate population density-dependent changes in behavior. Quorum sensing involves production of and response to diffusible or secreted signals, which can vary substantially ...
