Attenuation of quorum sensing system and virulence in Vibrio cholerae by phytomolecules

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The Vibrio cholerae, a gram-negative bacterium, is the causative agent of cholera. Quorum sensing is a cell-to-cell communication that leads to gene expression, accumulation of signaling molecules, biofilm formation, and production of virulence factors ...

Quorum sensing between bacterial species on the skin protects against epidermal injury in atopic dermatitis

open access: yesScience Translational Medicine, 2019
Quorum sensing peptides produced by commensal skin staphylococci protect against skin injury and inflammation induced by Staphylococcus aureus toxins. Skin-soothing bacteria Staphylococcus aureus is both a normal skin-resident species and a common bad ...

Coagulative Granular Hydrogels with an Enzyme Catalyzed Fibrin Network for Endogenous Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Coagulative granular hydrogels are composed of packed thrombin‐functionalized microgels that catalyze the conversion of fibrinogen into a secondary fibrin network, filling the interstitial voids. This bio‐inspired approach stabilizes the biomaterial to match the robustness of bulk hydrogels without compromising injectability, mimicking the initial ...

Quorum sensing influences Vibrio harveyi growth rates in a manner not fully accounted for by the marker effect of bioluminescence.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
BackgroundThe light-emitting Vibrios provide excellent material for studying the interaction of cellular communication with growth rate because bioluminescence is a convenient marker for quorum sensing.

Relationship Between Quorum Sensing and Secretion Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Quorum sensing (QS) is a communication mechanism between bacteria that allows specific processes to be controlled, such as biofilm formation, virulence factor expression, production of secondary metabolites and stress adaptation mechanisms such as ...

Membrane Vesicles from Lacticaseibacillus Casei BL23 Exhibit Antimicrobial Activity Against Escherichia coli and Immunostimulatory Effects on Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Membrane vesicles derived from the probiotic Lacticaseibacillus casei BL23 demonstrate antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli and a potential biological effect in improving the overall survival of C. elegans infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These vesicles stimulated immune responses in primary cells without causing toxicity. Our results

Social Evolution Selects for Redundancy in Bacterial Quorum Sensing.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2016
Quorum sensing is a process of chemical communication that bacteria use to monitor cell density and coordinate cooperative behaviors. Quorum sensing relies on extracellular signal molecules and cognate receptor pairs. While a single quorum-sensing system

Communication is the key: biofilms, quorum sensing, formation and prevention

open access: yesDiscoveries, 2019
Antibiotic resistance is a relevant topic nowadays, representing one of the main causes of infection-related mortality and morbidity at a global level.

Quorum-Sensing Signals and Quorum-Sensing Genes in Burkholderia vietnamiensis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2002
ABSTRACT Acyl-homoserine lactone (acyl-HSL) quorum sensing is common to many Proteobacteria including a clinical isolate of Burkholderia cepacia . The B. cepacia isolate produces low levels of octanoyl-HSL. We have examined an environmental isolate of

3D Printing of Bacteriophage‐Loaded Hydrogels: Development of a Local and Long‐Lasting Delivery System

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This research investigates the feasibility of 3D‐printing of a bacteriophage‐containing hydrogel made of alginate and methylcellulose. The printed hydrogels steadily release active bacteriophages for up to 35 days which is beneficial to treat implant‐associated infections.
