Bacteria use quorum sensing to orchestrate gene expression programmes that underlie
collective behaviours. Quorum sensing relies on the production, release, detection and …

Quorum sensing (QS) refers to the capacity of bacteria to monitor their population density
and regulate gene expression accordingly: the QS-regulated processes deal with …

Quorum sensing is a process of cell–cell communication that allows bacteria to share
information about cell density and adjust gene expression accordingly. This process …

Excessive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infections has lead to the
emergence of multiple drug resistant strains. Most infectious diseases are caused by …

Cell-cell communication, or quorum sensing, is a widespread phenomenon in bacteria that
is used to coordinate gene expression among local populations. Its use by bacterial …

Increasing extent of pathogenic resistance to drugs has encouraged the seeking for new anti-
virulence drugs. Many pharmacological and pharmacognostical researches are performed …

Biofilms are microbial sessile communities characterized by cells that are attached to a
substratum or interface or to each other, are embedded in a self-produced matrix of …

Quorum sensing is a process of cell-cell communication that bacteria use to regulate
collective behaviors. Quorum sensing depends on the production, detection, and group …

Quorum sensing (QS) is a microbial cell-to-cell communication process that relies on the
production and detection of chemical signals called autoinducers (AIs) to monitor cell …

Bacteria communicate with one another using chemical signal molecules. As in higher
organisms, the information supplied by these molecules is critical for synchronizing the …
