A Pro-Drug Approach for Selective Modulation of AI-2-Mediated Bacterial Cell-to-Cell Communication
The universal quorum sensing autoinducer, AI-2, is utilized by several bacteria. Analogs of AI-2 have the potential to modulate bacterial behavior. Selectively quenching the communication of a few bacteria, in the presence of several others in an ecosystem, using analogs of AI-2 is non-trivial due to the ubiquity of AI-2 processing receptors in many bacteria that co-exist. Herein, we demonstrat...
متن کاملBacterial interference.
This paper describes in outline some experiments on bacterial interference already reported by us (1) and presents supplementary evidence from later experiments. Several types of interference are analyzed in an attempt to find a working hypothesis which would account for the wide differences in recorded findings. No attempt is made to give a detailed review of the subject. Our interest in this ...
متن کاملBacterial interference with canonical NFkB signalling
The human body is constantly challenged by a variety of commensal and pathogenic microorganisms that trigger the immune system. Central in the first line of defence is the patternrecognition receptor (PRR)-induced stimulation of the NFkB pathway, leading to NFkB activation. The subsequent production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and/or antimicrobial peptides results in recruitment of profession...

متن کاملInterference : Contracts and Authority with Insecure Communication ∗
We develop a theory of mechanism design when agents are able to interfere with each others’ communication channels. We develop a kind of revelation principle, the “Noninterference Principle” which permits representation of arbitrary mechanisms by direct ones. The incentives to interfere will depend on the mechanism chosen; interference thus constrains contractual design. For instance, authority...
