Conidial tolerance to the upper thermal limits of summer is important for fungal biocontrol agents, whose conidia are formulated into mycoinsecticides for field application. To develop an efficient assay system, aerial conidia of eight Metarhizium anisopliae, four M. anisopliae var. anisopliae, and six M. anisopliae var. acridum isolates with different host and geographic origins were wet-stressed for ≤180 min at 48 °C or incubated for 14 d colony growths at 10-35 °C. The survival ratios (relative to unstressed conidia) of each isolate, examined at 15-min intervals, fit a logistic equation (r2 ≥ 0.975), yielding median lethal times (LT50s) of 14.3-150.3 min for the 18 isolates stressed at 48 °C. Seven grasshopper isolates from Africa had a mean LT50 of 110 (73-150) min, but could not grow at 10 or 15 °C. The mean LT50 of five non-grasshopper isolates capable of growing at 10-35 °C was 16 (10-26) min only. Three isolates with typically low (type I), medium (type II), and high (type III) levels of tolerance to 48 °C were further assayed for ≤4-d tolerance of their conidia to the wet stress at 38, 40, 42, or 45 °C. The resultant LT50s decreased to 20, 53 and 167 min at 48 °C from 507, 1612, and 8256 min at 38 °C for types I, II and III, respectively. For the distinguished types, the logarithms of the LT50s were significantly correlated to the temperatures of 38-48 °C with an inverse linearity (r2 ≥ 0.88). The method developed to assay quantitatively fungal thermotolerance would be useful for screening of fungal candidates for improved pest control in summer. 相似文献

Survival of entomopathogenic fungi under solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation is paramount to the success of biological control of insect pests and disease vectors. The mutagenic compound 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4-NQO) is often used to mimic the biological effects of UV radiation on organisms. Therefore, we asked whether tolerance to 4-NQO could predict tolerance to UV radiation in thirty isolates of entomopathogenic fungi and one isolate of a xerophilic fungus. A dendrogram obtained from cluster analyses based on the 50 and 90 % inhibitory concentrations (IC50 and IC90, respectively) divided the fungal isolates into six clusters numbered consecutively based on their tolerance to 4-NQO. Cluster 6 contained species with highest tolerance to 4-NQO (IC50 > 4.7 μM), including Mariannaea pruinosa, Lecanicillium aphanocladii, and Torrubiella homopterorum. Cluster 1 contained species least tolerant to 4-NQO (IC50 < 0.2 μM), such as Metarhizium acridum (ARSEF 324), Tolypocladium geodes, and Metarhizium brunneum (ARSEF 7711). With few exceptions, the majority of Metarhizium species showed moderate to low tolerances (IC50 between 0.4 and 0.9 μM) and were placed in cluster 2. Cluster 3 included species with moderate tolerance (IC50 between 1.0 and 1.2 μM). In cluster 4 were species with moderate to high tolerance (IC50 between 1.3 and 1.6 μM). Cluster 5 contained the species with high tolerance (IC50 between 1.9 and 4.0 μM). The most UV tolerant isolate of M. acridum, ARSEF 324, was the least tolerant to 4-NQO. Also, L. aphanocladii, which is very susceptible to UV radiation, showed high tolerance to 4-NQO. Our results indicate that tolerance to 4-NQO does not correlate with tolerance to UV radiation. Therefore this chemical compound is not a predictor of UV tolerance in entomopathogenic fungi. 相似文献

The fungicide dodine has been widely used in selective media to isolate entomopathogenic fungi (EF) from contaminating microorganisms, primarily bacteria and non-entomopathogenic fungi. In order to isolate the fungus Metarhizium acridum from soil for grasshopper and Mormon cricket control in the western USA, the susceptibility of M. acridum was compared with two Metarhizium spp. and other EF species. The isolates were inoculated onto mycological media with concentrations of dodine ranging from 0.0001 to 0.03% active ingredient (A.I.). In addition, susceptibilities of five Metarhizium spp. isolates to two sources of dodine, Syllit® commercial fungicide (65% A.I.) and Sigma® reagent grade (99% A.I.), were compared using Czapek agar medium. Responses to the two dodine sources were virtually identical. Accordingly, subsequent experiments used the less expensive Syllit dodine. Three media [Czapek, potato dextrose agar plus yeast extract (PDAY) and oatmeal agar] were evaluated for appropriateness as the base in selective media. Germination of all three of the M. acridum isolates tested was almost completely inhibited by dodine concentrations of 0.002% A.I. in Czapek or 0.006% A.I. in PDAY. On the other hand, M. robertsii and M. anisopliae isolates were considerably more tolerant, with germination not being inhibited until 0.010% A.I. in Czapek or 0.030% A.I. in PDAY. The higher vulnerability of the isolates to low concentrations of dodine in Czapek medium suggests that this medium would be less effective than PDAY in a selective medium. Oatmeal agar greatly improved fungal growth, but the levels of inhibition were lower. Therefore, PDAY was selected as the best selective basal medium. The lowest concentration that inhibited a common soil-inhabiting fungus, Aspergillus nidulans, was 0.001% A.I. Dodine tolerances were highest with M. robertsii, M. anisopliae, and Beauveria bassiana, followed by Isaria fumosorosea and Lecanicillium spp. The least tolerant EF isolates were M. acridum. 相似文献

Compelling evidence shows a strong correlation between accumulation of neurotoxic β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides and oxidative stress in the brains of patients afflicted with Alzheimer disease (AD). One hypothesis for this correlation involves the direct and harmful interaction of aggregated Aβ peptides with enzymes responsible for maintaining normal, cellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Identification of specific, destructive interactions of Aβ peptides with cellular anti-oxidant enzymes would represent an important step toward understanding the pathogenicity of Aβ peptides in AD. This report demonstrates that exposure of human neuroblastoma cells to cytotoxic preparations of aggregated Aβ peptides results in significant intracellular co-localization of Aβ with catalase, an anti-oxidant enzyme responsible for catalyzing the degradation of the ROS intermediate hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). These catalase-Aβ interactions deactivate catalase, resulting in increased cellular levels of H(2)O(2). Furthermore, small molecule inhibitors of catalase-amyloid interactions protect the hydrogen peroxide-degrading activity of catalase in Aβ-rich environments, leading to reduction of the co-localization of catalase and Aβ in cells, inhibition of Aβ-induced increases in cellular levels of H(2)O(2), and reduction of the toxicity of Aβ peptides. These studies, thus, provide evidence for the important role of intracellular catalase-amyloid interactions in Aβ-induced oxidative stress and propose a novel molecular strategy to inhibit such harmful interactions in AD. 相似文献

抗生素常被用于对转基因动物、植物及微生物细胞进行筛选。在进行抗生素抗性筛选前,需要摸索合适的抗生素使用浓度,其原因在于:过低的筛选浓度无法抑制非转基因细胞的生长;反之,过高的筛选浓度会导致转基因细胞死亡。为了摸索绵羊皮肤成纤维细胞(sheep skin fibroblasts, SSFs)对G418及Blasticidin S的抗性,本实验以体外培养的SSFs为实验材料,采用不同浓度的上述两种抗生素处理SSFs,采用活细胞计数的方式检测SSFs对上述两种抗生素的抗性。单独使用G418或Blasticidin S导致SSFs全部死亡的最低致死浓度分别为200μg/mL及4μg/mL;当两种抗生素联合使用时,其最低致死浓度为100μg/mL G418+3μg/mL Blasticidin S或150μg/mL G418+2μg/mL Blasticidin S。该实验为采用这两种抗生素筛选转基因SSFs提供了理论基础。 相似文献

p21(Waf1/Cip1/Sdi1) is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that mediates cell cycle arrest. Prolonged p21 up-regulation induces a senescent phenotype in normal and cancer cells, accompanied by an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, it has been shown recently that p21 expression can also lead to cell death in certain models. The mechanisms involved in this process are not fully understood. Here, we describe an induction of apoptosis by p21 in sarcoma cell lines that is p53-independent and can be ameliorated with antioxidants. Similar levels of p21 and ROS caused senescence in the absence of significant death in other cancer cell lines, suggesting a cell-specific response. We also found that cells undergoing p21-dependent cell death had higher sensitivity to oxidants and a specific pattern of mitochondrial polarization changes. Consistent with this, apoptosis could be blocked with targeted expression of catalase in the mitochondria of these cells. We propose that the balance between cancer cell death and arrest after p21 up-regulation depends on the specific effects of p21-induced ROS on the mitochondria. This suggests that selective up-regulation of p21 in cancer cells could be a successful therapeutic intervention for sarcomas and tumors with lower resistance to mitochondrial oxidative damage, regardless of p53 status. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are continuously produced and eliminated by living organisms normally maintaining ROS at certain steady-state levels. Under some circumstances, the balance between ROS generation and elimination is disturbed leading to enhanced ROS level called "oxidative stress". The primary goal of this review is to characterize two principal mechanisms of protection against oxidative stress - regulation of membrane permeability and antioxidant potential. The ancillary goals of this work are to describe up to date knowledge on the regulation of the previously mentioned mechanisms and to identify areas of prospective research and emerging directions in investigation of adaptation to oxidative stress. The ubiquity for challenges leading to oxidative stress development calls for identification of common mechanisms. They are cysteine residues and [Fe,S]-clusters of specific regulatory proteins. The latter mechanism is realized via SoxR bacterial protein, whereas the former mechanism is involved in operation of bacterial OxyR regulon, yeast H(2)O(2)-stimulon, plant NPR1/TGA and Rap2.4a systems, and animal Keap1/Nrf2, NF-κB and AP-1, and others. Although hundreds of studies have been carried out in the field with different taxa, the comparative analysis of adaptive response is quite incomplete and therefore, this work aims to cover a plethora of phylogenetic groups to delineate common mechanisms. In addition, this article raises some questions to be elucidated and points out future directions of this research. The comparative approach is used to shed light on fundamental principles and mechanisms of regulation of antioxidant systems. The idea is to provide starting points from which we can develop novel tools and hypothesis to facilitate meaningful investigations in the physiology and biochemistry of organismic response to oxidative stress. 相似文献

The denitrosylase S‐nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) has been suggested to sustain mitochondrial removal by autophagy (mitophagy), functionally linking S‐nitrosylation to cell senescence and aging. In this study, we provide evidence that GSNOR is induced at the translational level in response to hydrogen peroxide and mitochondrial ROS. The use of selective pharmacological inhibitors and siRNA demonstrates that GSNOR induction is an event downstream of the redox‐mediated activation of ATM, which in turn phosphorylates and activates CHK2 and p53 as intermediate players of this signaling cascade. The modulation of ATM/GSNOR axis, or the expression of a redox‐insensitive ATM mutant influences cell sensitivity to nitrosative and oxidative stress, impairs mitophagy and affects cell survival. Remarkably, this interplay modulates T‐cell activation, supporting the conclusion that GSNOR is a key molecular effector of the antioxidant function of ATM and providing new clues to comprehend the pleiotropic effects of ATM in the context of immune function. 相似文献

Nine‐day‐old Spodoptera litura (Fab.) larvae were treated with crude destruxin (dtx) extracted from a high‐virulent (M‐19) and a low‐virulent (M‐10) isolate of the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metch.), at doses that caused 30%, 50% and 90% mortality in the treated groups after 48 h. Destruxins produced a dose‐dependent decrease in the body weight of the larvae after 1, 24 and 48 h of treatment. There was a considerable hike in the activity of lipoxygenase and lipid peroxidation levels in the treated larvae with increased time of exposure to mycotoxin. The activities of total superoxide dismutase, total catalase, total peroxidase and specific ascorbate peroxidase in the larval body also registered alterations in the dtx‐treated larvae, suggesting that exposure of larvae to crude dtx induces oxidative stress which is countered by the antioxidant enzymes to an extent governed by the concentration and time of treatment, beyond which the larvae succumb to the ecofriendly biotoxin. 相似文献

The mechanism of action of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in mitochondrial oxidative stress (MOS)-mediated apoptotic tissue injury was investigated. MOS-mediated gastric mucosal apoptosis and injury were introduced in rat by indomethacin, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Here, we report that HO-1 was not only induced but also translocated to mitochondria during gastric mucosal injury to favor repair mechanisms. Furthermore, mitochondrial translocation of HO-1 resulted in the prevention of MOS and mitochondrial pathology as evident from the restoration of the complex I-driven mitochondrial respiratory control ratio and transmembrane potential. Mitochondrial translocation of HO-1 also resulted in time-dependent inhibition of apoptosis. We searched for the plausible mechanisms responsible for HO-1 induction and mitochondrial localization. Free heme, the substrate for HO-1, was increased inside mitochondria during gastric injury, and mitochondrial entry of HO-1 decreased intramitochondrial free heme content, suggesting that a purpose of mitochondrial translocation of HO-1 is to detoxify accumulated heme. Heme may activate nuclear translocation of NF-E2-related factor 2 to induce HO-1 through reactive oxygen species generation. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation studies indicated nuclear translocation of NF-E2-related factor 2 and its binding to HO-1 promoter to induce HO-1 expression during gastric injury. Inhibition of HO-1 by zinc protoporphyrin aggravated the mucosal injury and delayed healing. Zinc protoporphyrin further reduced the respiratory control ratio and transmembrane potential and enhanced MOS and apoptosis. In contrast, induction of HO-1 by cobalt protoporphyrin reduced MOS, corrected mitochondrial dysfunctions, and prevented apoptosis and gastric injury. Thus, induction and mitochondrial localization of HO-1 are a novel cytoprotective mechanism against MOS-mediated apoptotic tissue injury. 相似文献

In this study, it was found that undifferentiated myoblasts were more vulnerable to menadione-induced oxidative stress than differentiated myotubes. Cell death occurred with a relatively low concentration of menadione in myoblasts compared to myotubes. With the same concentration of menadione, the Bcl-2/Bax ratio decreased and nuclei containing condensed chromatin were observed in myoblasts to a greater extent than in myotubes. However, myotubes became increasingly susceptible to menadione when phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K) was blocked by pre-incubation with LY294002, a PI3-K inhibitor. Actually, PI3-K activity was reduced by menadione in myoblasts but not in myotubes. In addition, the phosphorylation of Akt, a downstream effector of PI3-K, was inhibited in myoblasts by menadione but increased in myotubes. Both LY294002 and API-2, an Akt inhibitor, decreased the Bcl-2/Bax ratio in menadione-exposed myotubes. These results suggest that the differential activity of PI3-K/Akt signalling is responsible for the differential susceptibility of myoblasts and myotubes to menadione-induced oxidative stress. 相似文献

Phosphomannose isomerase (PMI) catalyzes the reversible interconversion of fructose 6-phosphate (Fru-6-P) and mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P), providing a link between glycolysis and the mannose metabolic pathway. In this study, we identified pmi gene (Mapmi) from the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium acridum, and analyzed its functions using RNA interference (RNAi). Amending the growth medium with cell stress chemicals significantly reduced growth, conidial production and percent germination in Mapmi-RNAi mutant strain, compared to the wild-type strain. Growth of RNAi mutant was lower than the wild type strain with glucose or fructose as sole carbon source. RNAi mutant exhibited a normal growth phenotype with mannose at low concentrations, while trace or high concentration of mannose was more negatively impacted the growth of RNAi mutant than the wild type strain. Infection with Mapmi-RNAi mutant against Locusta migratoria manilensis (Meyen) led to a significantly reduced virulence compared to infection with the wild-type strain. These results suggest that Mapmi plays essential roles in stress tolerance and pathogenicity of M. acridum. 相似文献

The formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the change of the intracellular pH (pHi) are common phenomena during apoptosis. How they are interconnected, however, is poorly understood. Here we show that numerous anticancer drugs and cytokines such as Fas ligand and tumour necrosis factor α provoke intracellular acidification and cause the formation of mitochondrial ROS. In parallel, we found that the succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (SQR) activity of the mitochondrial respiratory complex II is specifically impaired without affecting the second enzymatic activity of this complex as a succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). Only in this configuration is complex II an apoptosis mediator and generates superoxides for cell death. This is achieved by the pHi decline that leads to the specific dissociation of the SDHA/SDHB subunits, which encompass the SDH activity, from the membrane-bound components of complex II that are required for the SQR activity. 相似文献

DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) and ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) are the two major kinases involved in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, and are required for cellular resistance to ionizing radiation. Whereas ATM is the key upstream kinase for DSB signaling, DNA-PKcs is primarily involved in DSB repair through the nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) mechanism. In addition to DSB repair, ATM has been shown to be involved in the oxidative stress response and could be activated directly in vitro on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treatment. However, the role of DNA-PKcs in cellular response to oxidative stress is not clear. We hypothesize that DNA-PKcs may participate in the regulation of ATM activation in response to oxidative stress, and that this regulatory role is independent of its role in DNA double-strand break repair. Our findings reveal that H2O2 induces hyperactivation of ATM signaling in DNA-PKcs-deficient, but not Ligase 4-deficient cells, suggesting an NHEJ-independent role for DNA-PKcs. Furthermore, DNA-PKcs deficiency leads to the elevation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and to a decrease in cellular survival against H2O2. For the first time, our results reveal that DNA-PKcs plays a noncanonical role in the cellular response to oxidative stress, which is independent from its role in NHEJ. In addition, DNA-PKcs is a critical regulator of the oxidative stress response and contributes to the maintenance of redox homeostasis. Our findings reveal that DNA-PKcs is required for cellular resistance to oxidative stress and suppression of ROS buildup independently of its function in DSB repair. 相似文献
