New antibacterial targets : Regulation of quorum sensing and secretory systems in zoonotic bacteria

Copyright © 2023 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved..

Quorum sensing (QS) is a communication mechanism that controls bacterial communication and can influence the transcriptional expression of multiple genes through one or more signaling molecules, thereby coordinating the population response of multiple bacterial pathogens. Secretion systems (SS) play an equally important role in bacterial information exchange, relying on the secretory systems to secrete proteins that act as virulence factors to promote adhesion to host cells. Eight highly efficient SS have been described, all of which are involved in the secretion or transfer of virulence factors, and the effector proteins they secrete play a key role in the virulence and pathogenicity of bacteria. It has been shown that many bacterial SS are directly or indirectly regulated by QS and thus influence bacterial virulence and antibiotic resistance. This review describes the relationship between QS and SS of several common zoonotic pathogenic bacteria and outlines the molecular mechanisms of how QS systems regulate SS, to provide a theoretical basis for the study of bacterial pathogenicity and the development of novel antibacterial drugs.
