The Fungicidal Activity of Thymol against Fusarium graminearum via Inducing Lipid Peroxidation and Disrupting Ergosterol Biosynthesis.
Thymol is a natural plant-derived compound that has been widely used in pharmaceutical and food preservation applications. However, the antifungal mechanism for thymol against phytopathogens remains unclear. In this study, we identified the antifungal action of thymol against Fusarium graminearum, an economically important phytopathogen showing severe resistance to traditional chemical fungicid...
متن کاملSelectivity of fatty acids on lipid metabolism and gene expression.
Triacylglycerols represent the main form of storage for a wide spectrum of fatty acids. Their utilization first involves mobilization from adipose tissue through lipolysis. The release of individual fatty acids from adipose tissue is selective in vitro and in vivo in animal studies and also in human subjects. Generally, fatty acids are more readily mobilized from fat cells when they are short-c...

presses sporangiophore growth, and of the morphologic aspects of nuclear RNA. This latter paper, by a group from the University of Chicago, includes unusually clear electron photomicrographic evidence in support of the authors' claims. The structure of plant cilia and their similarity to those of animals (Manton) and a study of nucleo-cytoplasmic interactions and morphogenesis in Stentor (Tarta...
متن کامل[Oxazolidinones, glycopeptides and cyclic lipopeptides].
A review of the chemical structure, pharmacokinetics, spectrum of activity, clinical use, and adverse effects of oxazolidinones (linezolid), glycopeptides, and cyclic lipopeptides (daptomycin) is presented. Oxazolidinones inhibit protein synthesis, and glycopeptides and cyclic lipopeptides act against the bacterial cell wall. The antibacterial spectrum of these agents covers gram-positive patho...
متن کاملLipid chain selectivity by outer membrane phospholipase A.
Outer membrane phospholipase A (OMPLA) is a unique, integral membrane enzyme found in Gram-negative bacteria and is an important virulence factor for pathogens such as Helicobacter pylori. This broad-specificity lipase degrades a variety of lipid substrates, and it plays a direct role in adjusting the composition and permeability of bacterial membranes under conditions of stress. Interestingly,...
