Abstract excerpt
Bacterial pathogens manipulate host cells to promote pathogen survival and dissemination. In this study, microarray technology was used to identify the genes that are affected by the Vibrio vulnificus quorum-sensing genes, luxS and smcR. By comparing the expression profiles of mouse macrophage cell lines stimulated with either the parent strains or a luxS smcR mutant, differentially expressed genes were...
