Article Abstract
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a plant pathogen which provokes galls on roots and stems (crown-gall disease) and colonizes them. Two approaches combining omics were used to decipher the lifestyle of A. tumefaciens in plant tumors: an integrative approach when omics were used on A. tumefaciens cells collected from plant tumors, a deconvolution approach when omics were used on A. tumefaciens cells exploiting a single tumor metabolite in pure culture assay. This addendum highlights some recent results on the biotroph lifestyle of A. tumefaciens in plant tumors.

Ustilago maydis Nit2 Regulates Nitrate Utilisation During Biotrophy and Affects Amino Acid Metabolism of Galls Under Nitrogen Depletion.

In previous work, we have shown that the transcription factor Nit2 plays a major role in the utilisation of non-favoured nitrogen sources like nitrate, minor amino acids or nucleobases in saprotrophic sporidia of the basidiomycete corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis. Addressing the knowledge gap regarding how filamentous phytopathogens adapt to nitrogen limitation in the host plant, we employed Δnit2 mutants in the natural FB1 × FB2 background to identify Nit2-regulated genes during biotrophy. We further investigated the impact of Nit2 on the physiology of leaf galls in nitrogen-replete versus nitrogen-limited host plants by comparative RNA-Seq and metabolic steady state analysis.

Gall-forming insects manipulate host plants through the proteins present in their saliva, which play essential roles in reprogramming plant cells. In this study, we utilized an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic approach to explore the salivary proteome of camphor psylla (Trioza camphorae). Transcriptomic analysis identified 97 secretory proteins that were abundantly and specifically expressed in the salivary glands.

The taccalonolides are plant-derived microtubule stabilizers that covalently and specifically bind β-tubulin and provide antitumor efficacy in drug-resistant tumor models both in vitro and in vivo. Herein, we report the radiolabeling, in vitro uptake, and in vivo imaging of a F radiolabeled taccalonolide to investigate in vivo biodistribution, including accumulation in TNBC tumors. Biochemical and cellular studies demonstrate that fluorination does not alter biological activity and supports target engagement of the radiolabeled compound.

Oral delivery of nucleic acid therapeutics for cancer therapy encounters major challenges, such as gastrointestinal acidity, enzymatic degradation, mucus barriers, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux. To address these challenges, this study engineers virus-like nanoparticles encapsulating siCENPN nucleic acid complexes and irradiated tumor cells (ITC), further coated with zwitterionic bacterial cellulose derivatives (PB-BC-BY). This innovative formulation demonstrates enhanced mucus penetration, improves stability in gastrointestinal environments, and effective inhibition of P-gp-mediated efflux.

Cancer is a leading global cause of death, with complex pathogenesis and treatment challenges like poor selectivity, toxicity, and drug resistance. Nanotechnology offers transformative solutions, with plant-derived exosomes (EXOs) emerging as promising green nanomaterials for personalized cancer therapy because of their biocompatibility and minimal antigenicity, and eco-friendly production. This review discusses the potential of plant EXOs in cancer treatment, covering isolation methods, advantages over mammalian EXOs (e.
