Biochem/physiol Actions

N-Hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone is a member of N-acyl-homoserine lactone family. N-Acylhomoserine lactones (AHL) regulate gene expression in gram-negative bacteria, such as Echerichia and Salmonella, and are involved in quorum sensing, cell to cell communication among bacteria; for reviews see. Bacterial intercellular communication has become a target for the development of new anti-virulence drugs, and a research focus for the prevention of biofilm formation.

A variety of pathogens use quorum sensing (QS) to control the expression of their virulence factors. QS interference has hence been proposed as a promising antivirulence strategy. The specific aim of this study was to isolate bacteria from trout tissue

Non-adherence to antihypertensives is a cause of 'pseudo-treatment-resistant' hypertension. To determine whether monitoring plasma amlodipine concentrations and inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) can be adjunct adherence tools. Patients with hypertension who were prescribed enalapril and amlodipine were enrolled. Blood pressures

The PLL(PTE-like lactonase)-group of enzymes within the amidohydrolase superfamily hydrolyze N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) that are involved in bacterial quorum-sensing pathways. These enzymes possess the (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel fold and serve as attractive templates for in vitro evolution and engineering of quorum-quenching biological
