Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa's inherent and adapted resistance makes this pathogen a serious problem for antimicrobial treatments. Furthermore, its biofilm formation ability is the most critical armor against antimicrobial therapy, and the virulence factors, on the other hand, contribute to fatal infection and other recalcitrant phenotypic characteristics. These capabilities are harmonized through cell-cell communication called Quorum Sensing (QS), which results in gene expression regulation via three major interconnected circuits: las, rhl, and pqs system.

Quorum sensing controls numerous processes ranging from the production of virulence factors to biofilm formation. Biofilms, communities of bacteria that are attached to one another and/or a surface, are common in nature, and when they form, they can produce a quorum of bacteria. One model system to study biofilms is the bacterium , which forms a biofilm that promotes the colonization of its symbiotic host.

Recent research has shed light on the complex world of bacterial communication through quorum sensing. This sophisticated intercellular signalling mechanism, driven by auto-inducers, regulates crucial bacterial community behaviours such as biofilm formation, expression of virulence factors, and resistance mechanisms. The increasing threat of antibiotic resistance, coupled with quorum sensing mediated response, necessitates alternative strategies to combat bacterial infections.
