COMPARATIVE STUDY OF GARLIC EXTRACT EFFECT ON THE EXPRESSION OF GENES INVOLVED IN QUORUM SENSING IN PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA AND THE ANTIBIOTIC TOBRAMYCIN

Comparative Study of Garlic Extract Effect on the Expression of Genes Involved in Quorum Sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the Antibiotic Tobramycin

Background: The expression of most genes involved in pathogenesis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is controlled and regulated by a gene system called quorum sensing (QS).The purpose of this study was to investigate the quorum quenching of garlic extract in preventing the expression of genes involved in QS system of P.aeruginosa.Methods: In the present cr

Global transcriptome profile of Cryptococcus neoformans during exposure to hydrogen peroxide induced oxidative stress.

Herbal Teas The ability of the opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans to resist oxidative stress is one of its most important virulence related traits.To cope with the deleterious effect of cellular damage caused by the oxidative burst inside the macrophages, C.neoformans has developed multilayered redundant molecular responses to ne
