TL;DR: The general morphological properties, ultrastructural organization, and physiological features of cystlike cells formed during the developmental cycle suggest that constitutive dormancy is characteristic of non-spore-forming bacteria.

TL;DR: Evidence was obtained indicating that autoregulation of bacterial growth and development is implemented at the level of intercellular interactions in microbial communities, probably a result of special antistress mechanisms responsible for the survival of these bacteria under extreme conditions of natural long-term cooling.

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of alkylhydroxybenzenes (AHB) as protectants and adaptogens is discussed as well as perspectives of further investigations. Chemical analogues of microbial AHB protected microbial cultures from stressful situations and exerted stabilizing activity toward macromolecules and the ability to scavenge active oxygen species.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of C7-alkylhydroxybenzene and p-hydroxyethylphenol on the viability of yeast cells under oxidative stress demonstrated that the protective mechanism of С7-AHB involves the scavenging of ROS resulting from oxidative stress, and the fact that tyrosol failed to perform a photoprotective function suggests that the antioxidant properties of microbial £7- AHB are not related to its chaperon functions.
