Contribution of the alkylquinolone quorum sensing system to the interaction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with bronchial epithelial cells. (2018)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Hussain, F., Negm, O., Pavia, A., Halliday, N., Frédéric Dubern, J., …Martínez-Pomares, L. (2018). Contribution of the alkylquinolone quorum sensing system to the interaction of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with bronchial epithelial cells. Frontiers in Microbiology, 9, Article 3018. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2018.03018

Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes infections in patients with compromised epithelial 32 barrier function. Multiple virulence factors produced by P. aeruginosa are controlled 33 by quorum sensing (QS) via 2-alkyl-4(1H)-quinolone (AQ) signal molecules. Her...

Model-based drug development in pulmonary delivery: pharmacokinetic analysis of novel drug candidates for treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection (2018)
Journal Article
Sou, T., Kukavica-Ibrulj, I., Soukarieh, F., Halliday, N., Levesque, R. C., Williams, P., …Bergström, C. A. (2019). Model-based drug development in pulmonary delivery: pharmacokinetic analysis of novel drug candidates for treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa lung infection. Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 108(1), 630-640. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xphs.2018.09.017

Antibiotic resistance is a major public health threat worldwide. In particular, about 80% of cystic fibrosis patients have chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) lung infection resistant to many current antibiotics. We are therefore developing a novel c...

Identification of FDA-Approved Drugs as Antivirulence Agents Targeting the pqs Quorum-Sensing System of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2018)
Journal Article
D'Angelo, F., Baldelli, V., Halliday, N., Pantalone, P., Polticelli, F., Fiscarelli, E., …Rampioni, G. (2018). Identification of FDA-Approved Drugs as Antivirulence Agents Targeting the pqs Quorum-Sensing System of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 62(11), Article e01296-18. https://doi.org/10.1128/AAC.01296-18

Copyright © 2018 American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved. The long-term use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. A promising strategy to combat bacterial infections aims at hampering their adaptabili...

Quorum sensing in Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi and Erwinia toletana: role in virulence and interspecies interactions in the olive knot (2018)
Journal Article
Caballo-Ponce, E., Meng, X., Uzelac, G., Halliday, N., Cámara, M., Licastro, D., …Venturi, V. (2018). Quorum sensing in Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi and Erwinia toletana: role in virulence and interspecies interactions in the olive knot. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 84(18), 1-18. https://doi.org/10.1128/AEM.00950-18

The olive-knot disease (Olea europea L.) is caused by the bacterium Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi (PSV). PSV in the olive-knot undergoes interspecies interactions with the harmless endophyte Erwina toletana (ET); PSV and ET co-localize and fo...

In Silico and in Vitro-Guided Identification of Inhibitors of Alkylquinolone-Dependent Quorum Sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2018)
Journal Article
Soukarieh, F., Vico Oton, E., Dubern, J., Gomes, J., Halliday, N., de Pilar Crespo, M., …Cámara, M. (2018). In Silico and in Vitro-Guided Identification of Inhibitors of Alkylquinolone-Dependent Quorum Sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Molecules, 23(2), 1-15. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules23020257

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis, wound and nosocomial infections, posing a serious burden to public health, due to its antibiotic resistance. The P. aeruginosa Pseudomonas Quinolone System (pqs) quorum sens...
