Plant endophytic fungi are an important and novel resource of natural bioactive compounds with their potential applications in agriculture, medicine food industry. In the past two decades, many valuable antimicrobial, insecticidal, cytotoxic, anticancer activities have been successfully discovered from fungi. During long period co-evolution, a friendly relationship was formed between each endophyte its host plant. Some endophytes ability to produce same or similar as those originated plants....

H. Wright. The structures elucidated by analysis 1D and 2D NMR HRESIMS spectra comparison compounds. Compounds 7-9 contain uncommon 2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one unit. All evaluated for their antibacterial activities against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus hemolyticus, Agrobacterium...
The global, regional, and national burden of psoriasis was investigated based on the Global Burden Disease (GBD) study. To report incidence in 204 countries territories from 21 regions according to age, sex, region, country, socialdemographic index (SDI) between 1990 2019. Estimates GBD 2019 study were used analyse at levels. estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) age-standardized rate (ASIR) calculated quantify trends From 2019, global increased by 26.53%, but ASIR decreased, with an...
Rationale: Neurofibromatosis is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by developmental abnormalities of the nervous system, skin, and bones. Clinically, it relatively rare often associated with various benign malignant tumors. Patient concerns: However, reports its association melanoma are scarce, has been reported as a case report in this study. Case treatment options discussed below. Diagnoses: A 71-year-old male presented long-standing skin nodules plaques including growing...
Three polysaccharides, namely exopolysaccharide (EPS), water-extracted mycelial polysaccharide (WPS) and sodium hydroxide-extracted (SPS), were prepared from the endophytic fungus Fusarium oxysporium Dzf17 isolated rhizomes of Dioscorea zingiberensis. The effects time addition concentration on growth diosgenin accumulation in cell suspension culture D. zingiberensis studied. Among them, WPS was found to be most effective polysaccharide. When added medium at 20 mg/L 25th day culture, dry...
The effects of the oligosaccharides from endophytic fungus Fusarium oxysporum Dzf17 as elicitors on diosgenin production in cell suspension cultures its host Dioscorea zingiberensis were investigated. Three oligosaccharides, DP4, DP7 and DP10, purified oligosaccharide fractions DP2-5, DP5-8 DP8-12, respectively, which prepared water-extracted mycelial polysaccharide F. Dzf17. When treated with fraction at 20 mg/L day 26 harvested 32, maximum yield (2.187 mg/L) was achieved, 5.65-fold control...
Two spirobisnaphthalenes, namely palmarumycins C2 and C3, were isolated from cultures of the endophytic fungus Berkleasmium sp. Dzf12 after treatment with 1-hexadecene. After addition 1-hexadecene at 10% to medium on day 6 culture, maximal yields C3 obtained as 0.40 g/L 1.19 g/L, which 40.00 fold 59.50 higher, respectively, in comparison those control (0.01 0.02 g/L). The results indicated that can be an effective strategy for enhancing production liquid culture Dzf12. Palmarumycin exhibited...
This study explored the effects of microRNA-19b (miR-19b) on airway remodeling, inflammation, and degree oxidative stress in a mouse model asthma. Bioinformatics analyses dual luciferase reporter gene assays revealed that thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is direct target miR-19b. An asthma was established via ovalbumin (OVA) sensitization challenge 72 female BALB/c mice. Mice were then assigned to saline, OVA-sensitized, saline+miR-19b mimics, saline+anti-TSLP, OVA-sensitized+miR-19b...
