GC-MS-Guided Antimicrobial Defense Responsive Secondary Metabolites from the Endophytic Fusarium solani Isolated from Tinospora cordifolia and Their Multifaceted Biological Properties.

Medicinal plants are hosts to an infinite number of microorganisms, commonly referred to as endophytes which are rich in bioactive metabolites yielding favorable biological activities. The endophytes are known to have a profound impact on their host plant by promoting the accumulation of secondary metabolites which are beneficial to humankind. In the present study, the fungal endophyte, Fusarium solani (ABR4) from the medicinal plant Tinospora cordifolia, was assessed for its bioactive secondary metabolites employing fermentation on a solid rice medium.

Ameliorated Antibacterial and Antioxidant Properties by Mediated Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles.

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles using beneficial is a simple, eco-friendly and cost-effective route. Secondary metabolites secreted by act as capping and reducing agents that can offer constancy and can contribute to biological activity. The present study aimed to synthesize silver nanoparticles using cell filtrate and investigate different bioactive metabolites based on LC-MS/MS analysis.

Endophytic Fungi-Alternative Sources of Cytotoxic Compounds: A Review.

Cancer is a major cause of death worldwide, with an increasing number of cases being reported annually. The elevated rate of mortality necessitates a global challenge to explore newer sources of anticancer drugs. Recent advancements in cancer treatment involve the discovery and development of new and improved chemotherapeutics derived from natural or synthetic sources.
