Abstract
Bacteria communicate through quorum sensing, which enables bacterial coordination of collective behaviors and environment-induced adaptations. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Pundir et al. (2019) report that connective-tissue-type mast cells spy on bacterial communication by detecting the messenger molecules via their receptor Mrgprb2-MRGPRX2 to the host benefit.Entities:
