Article Abstract
Abscisic acid (ABA), a crucial phytohormone, is industrially synthesized using Botrytis cinerea and has wide-ranging applications in agriculture, forestry, and environmental conservation. However, the industrial fermentation of ABA using B. cinerea still faces numerous challenges. In this study, the ABA biosynthetic capacity of B. cinerea was significantly improved through a multi-strategy optimization approach, including regulating the stress defense system, enhancing cofactor supply, and optimizing fermentation conditions. First, the addition of antioxidant compounds improved the stress defense capability of B. cinerea, with retinol supplementation increasing ABA production to 1.22 g/L. Subsequently, transcriptomic and biochemical analyses revealed a significant improvement in the overall stress defense system of B. cinerea. Further enhancement of cofactor supply through in vivo metabolic engineering significantly boosted ABA accumulation. Finally, optimization of fermentation conditions increased ABA production to 1.72 g/L, marking a 76% increase compared to the initial yield. This study establishes a robust approach to enhance ABA biosynthesis in B. cinerea, offering valuable insights for advancing the cultivation efficiency of filamentous fungi in industrial bioprocessing.

The stems of , an important vegetable in China, are targeted by the pathogen , triggering a response through the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway. To investigate the characteristics and the role of MAPK gene family in the biological stress response, a bioinformatics-based analysis was performed, and the expression patterns of and MAPK-infection pathway-related genes were detected in male plants inoculated with . Twenty-five were identified and divided into four subgroups A, B, C and D: carried a conserved TEY motif, while D had a conserved TDY motif.

Mounting evidence indicates that viruses exploit elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels to promote replication and pathogenesis, yet the mechanistic underpinnings of this viral strategy remain elusive for many viral systems. This study uncovers a sophisticated viral counter-defense mechanism in the Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV1)-Fusarium graminearum system, where the viral p29 protein subverts host redox homeostasis to overcome antiviral responses. That p29 directly interacts with and inhibits the enzymatic activity of fungal NAD(P)H-dependent FMN reductase 1 (FMR1), leading to increased ROS accumulation and subsequent autophagy activation is demonstrated.

Background: The association observed between mental stress and metabolic syndrome (MetS) has varied across studies and may be confounded by physical activity (PA) and fitness status.
Method: This study included a military cohort of 2,854 participants in Taiwan who were not taking any medications and were free of baseline MetS. The Brief Symptoms Rating Scale (BSRS-5) includes five domains-depression, anxiety, hostility, insomnia, and interpersonal sensitivity-measured on a five-point Likert-type scale ranging from 0 to 4, with a maximum score of 20.

In the study of prostate diseases, the microenvironment associated with chronic prostatitis is characterized by abnormal activation of immune cells, leading to excessive accumulation of pro-inflammatory factors and an imbalance in the antioxidant defense system. This results in the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the subsequent triggering of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress persistently disrupts the homeostasis of prostate tissue through various mechanisms, including the damage to biomacromolecules, the regulation of inflammatory pathways, and the induction of apoptosis.
