Abstract excerpt
Given the critical role of quorum sensing (QS) in the pathogenicity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, inhibiting QS is considered a promising alternative to traditional antibiotics for treating P. aeruginosa infections. The QS system of P. aeruginosa comprises two acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) circuits, LasI/R and RhlI/R, along with a third system, the PQS system. However, due to the frequent clinical isolation of lasR...
