Paraoxonase and acylated homoserine lactones in urine from patients with urinary tract infections-- relationship to microbial diversity by 16S rRNA gene sequencing
2021-06-11
Abstract excerpt
Paraoxonase (PON) comprises a trio of mammalian enzymes that have been reported to have a number of roles including the inhibition of bacterial virulence and biofilm formation by microorganisms that quorum sense with acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs). PON have previously been reported to inhibit P. aeruginosa biofilm formation in mammalian airways and skin. An innate immune role for PON in urinary tract infecti...
