Quorum sensing (QS) is a bacterial communication strategy controlling cells density, biofilm
formation, virulence, sporulation, and survival. Since QS is considered a virulence factor in …

The formation of biofilm by pathogenic bacteria is considered as one of the most powerful
mechanisms/modes of resistance against the action of several antibiotics. Biofilm is formed …

Bacteria communicate by means of small signal molecules in a process termed quorum
sensing (QS). QS enables bacteria to organize their activities at the population level …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an emerging opportunistic pathogen responsible for cystic
fibrosis and nosocomial infections. In addition, empirical treatments are become inefficient …

Natural products play vital roles against infectious diseases since ancient times and most
drugs in use today are derived from natural sources. Worldwide, multi-drug resistance …

The long-term use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. A
promising strategy to combat bacterial infections aims at hampering their adaptability to the …

Due to the increasing emergence of antibiotic resistant bacterial strains within the past few
decades, bacterial infections in general–and hospital‐borne infections, in particular–have …

Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-to-cell communication process that controls bacterial
collective behaviors. The QS network regulates and coordinates bacterial virulence factor …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic human pathogen and a common Gram-
negative bacterium in hospital-acquired infections. It causes death in many burn victims …

Biofilm formation is considered a major cause of therapeutic failure because bacteria in
biofilms have higher protection against antimicrobials. Thus, biofilm-related infections are …
