Quorum sensing inhibitors of bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae

Zdorovʹe Rebenka, 2019
The scientific review systematizes information on LuxS/AI-2 and ComABCDE quorum sensing systems of bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae. It is emphasized that biofilms of bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae are one of the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance ...

Attenuation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence by quorum sensing inhibitors [PDF]

The EMBO Journal, 2003
Traditional treatment of infectious diseases is based on compounds that kill or inhibit growth of bacteria. A major concern with this approach is the frequent development of resistance to antibiotics. The discovery of communication systems (quorum sensing systems) regulating bacterial virulence has afforded a novel opportunity to control infectious ...

Living Electronics: Microbial Metabolism as Batteries, Resistors, and Capacitors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Three microorganisms are assigned the three elementary roles of a circuit on one sheet of paper. Dormant Bacillus subtilis spores germinate to switch the power source on; a photosynthetic Synechocystis biofilm sets resistance by the color and intensity of light; and a respiring Shewanella oneidensis biofilm stores charge. Together they form a printable

The Collective Power of Bacteria as a Blueprint for Emergent Intelligence

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Small cells, powerful collectives. Bacteria demonstrate how sophisticated behaviors can emerge from many simple individuals working together. We explore the remarkable world of bacterial communities and the mechanisms that underpin their complex emergent behaviors, enabling impressive adaptability, robustness, and responsiveness to changing ...

Novel approaches for the design and discovery of quorum-sensing inhibitors [PDF]

Expert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2014
The spread of antibiotic resistance, together with the lack of antibiotics based on novel molecular scaffolds, marks the so-called 'post-antibiotic era'. Interference with bacterial virulence has emerged as an attractive approach among the current potential strategies for developing new anti-infective drugs.

Inhibition of marine biofouling by bacterial quorum sensing inhibitors [PDF]

Biofouling, 2011
Seventy eight natural products from chemical libraries containing compounds from marine organisms (sponges, algae, fungi, tunicates and cyanobacteria) and terrestrial plants, were screened for the inhibition of bacterial quorum sensing (QS) using a reporter strain Chromobacterium violaceum CV017.

Integrating One Health to Mitigate the Emergence and Spread of Antimicrobial Resistance in Livestock and Aquaculture

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...
