The mechanisms through which microbes communicate using signal molecules has inspired a great deal of research. Microbes use this exchange of information, known as quorum sensing (QS), to initiate and perpetuate infectious diseases in eukaryotic organisms, evading the eukaryotic defense system by multiplying and expressing their pathogenicity through QS regulation. The major issue to arise from such networks is increased bacterial resistance to antibiotics, resulting from QS-dependent mediation of the formation of biofilm, the induction of efflux pumps, and the production of antibiotics. QS inhibitors (QSIs) of diverse origins have been shown to act as potential antipathogens. In this review, we focus on the use of QSIs to counter diseases in humans as well as plants and animals of economic importance. We also discuss the challenges encountered in the potential applications of QSIs. 相似文献

Stereology, or the derivation of quantitative, three-dimensional (3-D) data about cells by statistical analysis of the structures
of random sections, is widely used in cytology and pathology. However, there are situations where this approach is inadequate,
and only an analysis of a homogeneous population of whole cells will give the required results. This involved 3-D reconstruction
from physical or optical sections, or tomography or photogrammetry of whole-cell mounts. Use of stereo views of individual
sections or projections adds considerably to the information available for both contouring and reconstruction. Recent image-processing
advances in clinical radiography have shown, for the first time, that rapid, high-resolution digitization and contrast enhancement
enable nearly all structural details to be routinely extracted from the micrographs and adequately portrayed.
Three-D whole-cell reconstructions provide the digital data for many kinds of morphometric measurements on both whole cells
and their individual organelles and membranes. Rapid fixation or freezing allows improved quantitative structure/function
correlations of organelles with disturbances in cell metabolism or gene expression. 相似文献
