Exploring the Antifungal Potential of the Brown Macroalga Hormophysa triquetra: Morphological Disruptions and Structural Changes in Plant Pathogens

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Extracts of Hormophysa triquetra showed antifungal activity with marked hyphal deformities in Fusarium oxysporum and Alternaria alternata. Light microscopy and SEM confirmed structural alterations despite unchanged radial growth. Cucumber assays validated reduced disease incidence, linked to fatty‐acid–rich metabolites detected by GC–MS.

Computational Design of Azole Derivatives as Multifunctional Agents for Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesApplied Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
A series of 19 azole derivatives were evaluated using bioinformatic tools and density functional theory in the context of multifunctional agents for Alzheimer's disease and were classified as potential antioxidant, distributor, and suppressor agents. ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, characterized by multifactorial ...

Mevalonate Diphosphate Decarboxylase MVD/Erg19 Is Required for Ergosterol Biosynthesis, Growth, Sporulation and Stress Tolerance in Aspergillus oryzae

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase (MVD; EC 4.1.1.33) is a key enzyme of the mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway. In fungi, the MVA pathway functions as upstream of ergosterol biosynthesis, and MVD is also known as Erg19.

A water-soluble form of porin from the mitochondrial outer membrane of Neurospora crassa [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Mitochondrial porin, the outer membrane pore-forming protein, was isolated in the presence of detergents and converted into a water- soluble form. This water-soluble porin existed under nondenaturing conditions as a mixture of dimers and oligomers.

Boronic Acid‐Assisted Cellular Delivery of Pallado‐Fingers for Enhanced Pd(II)‐Mediated De‐Propargylation in Mammalian Cells

open access: yesChemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study introduces “Pallado‐fingers” derived from zinc finger domain to facilitate intracellular catalysis by de‐propargylation of a dye, which was modulated by the Pd (II) co‐ligand/counterion in the order PPh3 > OAc− > Cl− which is reversed within intracellular milieu. For elevated peptide internalization, 4‐carboxyphenylboronic acid was linked to

Sustainable Applications of Thymol: Advances in Formulation Technologies, Drug Delivery Systems, and Food Preservation Strategies

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Thymol is a natural monoterpene with antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer activities relevant to food and biomedical applications. Its poor solubility and instability can be improved through nanodelivery systems. Thymol also supports sustainable food preservation and active packaging, although further clinical validation and ...

QUANTIFICATION AND BIOREMEDIATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES BY DEVELOPING A NOVEL AND EFFICIENT METHOD [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry Journal of Moldova: General, Industrial and Ecological Chemistry, 2014
Pleurotus ostreatus, a white rot fungus, is capable of bioremediating a wide range of organic contaminants including Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). Ergosterol is produced by living fungal biomass and used as a measure of fungal biomass.

Analysis of ergosterol and gene expression profiles of sterol ∆5,6-desaturase (ERG3) and lanosterol 14α-demethylase (ERG11) in Candida albicans treated with carvacrol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Usually, for treatment of fungal infections, antifungals such as azoles are used, but one of the biggest problems faced in clinical practice is the emergence of resistance for most of these drugs.
