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 is sufficient to probe cell density, bacteria frequently use multiple quorum-sensing systems to regulate the same cooperative behaviors. The p...
Vibrio harveyi is amongst the most important bacterial pathogens in aquaculture. Novel methods to control this pathogen are needed since many strains have acquired resistance to antibiotics. We previously showed that quorum sensing-disrupting furanones are able to protect brine shrimp larvae against vibriosis. However, a major problem of these compounds is that they are toxic toward higher orga...
Quorum sensing is a cell-density-dependent regulatory system in gram-positive bacteria and is often regulated by cyclic peptides called "quormones," which function as extracellular communication signals. With an aim to discover an antipathogenic agent targeting quorum sensing in gram-positive bacteria, we screened 153 samples of fungal butanol extracts with the guidance of the inhibition of quo...
Bacterial cell-to-cell communication (quorum sensing) refers to the regulation of bacterial gene expression in response to changes in microbial population density. Quorum sensing bacteria produce, release and respond to chemical signal molecules called autoinducers. Bacteria use two types of autoinducers, namely autoinducer-1 (AI-1) and autoinducer-2 (AI-2) where the former are N-acylhomoserine...
In this presentation the hydro dynamical condition of quorum sensing in the biofilm growth is investigated using convection diffusion reaction equation and analyzed environmental condition. It is used to analyze the influence of hydrodynamics and structural heterogeneities on mass transfer in this quorum sensing mechanism. The future direction of stochastic model of quorum sensing in bacteria i...
It is postulated that in addition to cell density, other factors such as the dimensions and diffusional characteristics of the environment could influence quorum sensing (QS) and induction of genetic reprogramming. Modeling studies predict that QS may operate at the level of a single cell, but, owing to experimental challenges, the potential benefits of QS by individual cells remain virtually u...
background and objectives: this study was designed to evaluate the activity of quercus infectoria galls extract (qifge) on virulence factor production and inhibition of quorum sensing (qs) in pseudomonas aeruginosa. materials and methods: minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) of qifge against 5 strains of p. aeruginosa was determined. the extract at sub-mic was used to determine biofilm format...
Quorum sensing is a regulatory mechanism (operating in response to cell density) which in gram-negative bacteria usually involves the production of N-acyl homoserine lactones (HSL). Quorum sensing in Burkholderia cepacia has been associated with the regulation of expression of extracellular proteins and siderophores and also with the regulation of swarming and biofilm formation. In the present ...
Pathogenic bacteria use quorum-sensing signal molecules to co-ordinate the expression of virulence genes. Animal-based studies have demonstrated the immunomodulatory effects of quorum-sensing signal molecules. In the present study, we have examined the impact of these molecules on normal human immune function in vitro and compared this with immune changes in patients with sepsis where quorum-se...
