Environmental and Chemical Factors Determining the Structure of Leaf Litter Sporulating Conidial Fungi Communities in Two Preserved Areas of Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Brazilian Northeast shelters fragments of the Atlantic Forest that, although historically under‐sampled, are home to a high diversity of organisms. In this context, conidial fungi are crucial for ecological balance, standing out for their role in the decomposition of organic matter and nutrient cycling.

Nitrogen and Ergosterol Concentrations Varied in Live Jack Pine Phloem Following Inoculations With Fungal Associates of Mountain Pine Beetle

open access: yes, 2020
Bark beetles form symbiotic associations with multiple species of fungi that supplement their metabolic needs. However, the relative contributions of each symbiont to the nutrition of bark beetles have been largely unexplored.

Engineering Yarrowia lipolytica for high-level ergosterol production

open access: yesSynthetic and Systems Biotechnology
Ergosterol is the key precursor of steroid drug synthesis. In this experiment, we systematically modified the synthesis of ergosterol. Firstly, we identified key rate-limiting enzymes through systematic screening of the post-squalene pathway ...

Anticancer and Cardioprotective Properties of Medicinal Mushrooms: Current Evidence and Future Prospects

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Introduction: Cardiotoxicity is an undesirable side effect of chemotherapy that limits the effectiveness of cancer treatment. Almost all cardiotoxic agents cause cardiovascular complications, leading to oxidative stress and other pathological conditions.

Ergosterol in fruit - a marker for mould toxins?

open access: yes, 2020
Ergosterol (also known as provitamin D2) is present in the cell membranes of fungi (including those of yeasts and moulds). Accordingly, ergosterol may occur naturally (such as in edible mushrooms, bread or cheese ripened with mould cultures) or may occur

Antibacterial Effect of the In Vitro Interaction Between Clotrimazole and Chlorhexidine Against Staphylococcus pseudintermedius With Known Resistance Patterns Isolated From Canine Pyoderma

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
The 2:1 chlorhexidine–clotrimazole combination demonstrated enhanced antibacterial activity against canine Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates, including resistant strains. Reduced MIC values, predominantly additive interactions and absence of antagonism support its use as a promising topical strategy for canine pyoderma management.

Mechanistic Investigations of a Novel Lactam Antifungal Agent Against Candida albicans

open access: yesAPMIS, Volume 134, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Candida albicans presents a major, yet underestimated challenge in clinical settings due to its increased resistance to treatment. This study intended to focus on the utility of a novel proprietary lactam molecule, a quorum sensing (QS) inhibitor, against C. albicans. We assessed isolate susceptibility to lactam treatment. In addition, RNA‐Seq

The anti-liver cancer effect of ergosterol in mice

open access: yes, 2018
we analyzed the antitumor effect of ergosterol using H22 hepatoma model mice, ergosterol at a dose of 240 mg/kg for 10 days significantly reduced H22 hepatoma growth. At this dosage, the tumor inhibition rate reached 64.4%. At a lower dosage of 80 mg/kg
