RESISTANCE IS NOT FUTILE: THE ROLE OF QUORUM SENSING PLASTICITY IN PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA INFECTIONS AND ITS LINK TO INTRINSIC MECHANISMS OF ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE

Bacteria use a cell-cell communication process called quorum sensing (QS) to orchestrate collective behaviors.QS relies on the group-wide detection of extracellular signal molecules called autoinducers (AI).Quorum sensing is required for virulence and biofilm formation in the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa.In copyright Adjustable Rear Arm P.

Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a dominantly inherited connective tissue disorder caused by mutations in the COL3A1 gene that encodes type III collagen (COLLIII), which is the major expressed collagen in blood vessels and hollow organs.The majority of disease-causing variants in COL3A1 are glycine substitutions and in-frame splice mutatio

In 1998-1999 a seismic sequence occurred Fender Products in the Southern Apennines, after the moderate size (mb=5.0) 9th September 1998 Pollino earthquake.It lasted about 14 months and was clearly localized to the sole north-west area of the main shock epicenter.Its peculiarity consisted in sudden changes of activity from a series of norm

The paper analyses the judgment of the International Court of Justice in the lawsuit of Qatar against the United Arab Emirates on the application of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and its contribution to the development of anti-discrimination law.The motives Ornament and procedural actions of t

Oscillatory neuronal activity is implicated in many cognitive functions, and its phase coupling between sensors may reflect networks of communicating neuronal populations.Oscillatory activity is often studied using extracranial recordings and compared between experimental conditions.This is challenging, because there is overlap between sensor-level
