Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) regulated by quorum sensing (QS) could directly
mediate adhesion between microorganisms and form tight microbial aggregates. Besides …

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic pathogen of significant concern to
susceptible patient populations. This pathogen can cause nosocomial and community …

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a non-fermenting, Gram-negative bacillus that has
emerged as an opportunistic nosocomial pathogen. Its intrinsic multidrug resistance makes …

Recent studies portend a rising global spread and adaptation of human-or healthcare-
associated pathogens. Here, we analyse an international collection of the emerging …

Quorum sensing (QS), a type of chemical communication, allows bacteria to sense and
coordinate activities in natural biofilm communities using N-acyl homoserine lactones …

Introduction: Infections caused by the opportunistic Stenotrophomonas maltophilia pathogen
in immunocompromised patients are complicated to treat due to antibiotic resistance and the …

In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), the lung is a remarkable ecological niche in which the
microbiome is subjected to important selective pressures. An inexorable colonization by …

The isolation and characterization of bacteriophages for the treatment of infections caused
by the multidrug resistant pathogen Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is imperative as …

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder which leads to the secretion
of a viscous mucus layer on the respiratory epithelium that facilitates colonization by various …

Many proteobacteria possess LuxR solos which are quorum sensing LuxR-type regulators
that are not paired with a cognate LuxI-type synthase. LuxR solos have been implicated in …
