This study reveals how probiotic bacteria directly influence brain cell function, highlighting gut-brain communication and potential therapeutic applications.
So, for example, if you take 100 bacteria, or 100 viruses, and you add them to cells, some of them—I’ll make up the numbers, let’s say 80 percent of them—will be able to successfully infect a cell, ...
The research findings also suggest an evolutionary advantage of SOC, because it provides a way for individual bacteria to diversify, even without communicating with one another. SOC could be compared ...
A transporter which some bacteria use to recycle fragments of their cell wall has been discovered by researchers at Umeå university, Sweden. They found that the transporter controls resistance to ...
Multiple ParA/MinD ATPases coordinate the positioning of disparate cargos in a bacterial cell. Nature Communications, 2023; 14 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-39019-x ...
Bacteria talk to each other using N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) as quorum sensing (QS) signals. Now, researchers at Linköping University in Sweden are showing how bacteria control processes in ...
Chatterboxes: Researcher develops new model that shows how bacteria communicate Research offers an 'off-the-shelf' tool for modeling bacterial communities Date: January 28, 2023 Source: Florida ...
Bacteria cells in colonies that had previously swarmed were more prone to swarm again than those that hadn't, and their offspring followed suit for at least four generations—about two hours.
