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 ...

Quorum sensing : understanding the role of bacteria in meat spoilage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Quorum sensing is a fundamental process to all of microbiology since it is ubiquitous in the bacterial world, where bacterial cells communicate with each other using low molecular weight signal molecules called autoinducers.

Development of Polymeric Materials to Inhibit Bacterial Quorum Sensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bacterial infections are an increasing problem for human health. In fact, an increasing number of infections are caused by bacteria that are resistant to most antibiotics and their combinations. A new solution to fight bacteria and infectious diseases,

Revisiting ESKAPE Pathogens: virulence, resistance, and combating strategies focusing on quorum sensing

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
The human–bacterial association is long-known and well-established in terms of both augmentations of human health and attenuation. However, the growing incidents of nosocomial infections caused by the ESKAPE pathogens (Enterococcus faecium ...

Development of an Antibiotic Resistance Breaker to Resensitize Drug-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus: In Silico and In Vitro Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Efflux pumps are one of the predominant microbial resistant mechanisms leading to the development of multidrug resistance. In Staphylococcus aureus, overexpression of NorA protein enables the efflux of antibiotics belonging to the class of ...
