Chronic and recurrent bacterial infections are frequently associated with the formation of
biofilms on biotic or abiotic materials that are composed of mono-or multi-species cultures of …

Background: Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-to-cell communication mechanism that occurs
between inter-and intra-bacterial species and is regulated by signaling molecules called …

Chronic diabetic wounds are caused by an array of pathologies. Pathogenic bacteria such
as S. aureus can easily invade hosts with deficient immunity. In this study, we developed a …

Influenza infection is substantially worsened by the onset of secondary pneumonia caused
by bacteria, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The bidirectional …

The emergence and rapid spread of methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
raise a critical need for alternative therapeutic options. New antibacterial drugs and targets …

Staphylococcus aureus can readily form biofilm which enhances the drug-resistance,
resulting in life-threatening infections involving different organs. Biofilm formation occurs due …

Although chitooligosaccharide (COS) has attracted the attention of some researchers due to
its good solubility and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, our study found that …

ABSTRACT Introduction Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a
widespread pathogen, often causing recurrent and deadly infections in the hospital and …

The regulation of membrane protein activity for cellular functions is critically dependent on
the composition of phospholipid membranes. Cardiolipin, a unique phospholipid found in …

The neutrophil phagosome is one of the most hostile environments that bacteria must face
and overcome if they are to succeed as pathogens. Targeting bacterial defense mechanisms …
