Adaptive Network Stabilization Despite Profound Structural Reorganization in Human Organotypic Cultures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Adult human organotypic cortical slices undergo marked neuronal loss, laminar disruption, and glial activation, yet their network activity progressively stabilizes after a variable period. Electrophysiology, longitudinal calcium imaging, and quantitative histology show that structurally remodeled human circuits show adaptive capacity resulting in ...

The MoSR‐MoDde1 Regulatory Axis: A Novel Determinant of DMI Sensitivity and a Target for Sustainable Rice Blast Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The transcription factor MoSR governs DMI fungicide sensitivity in Magnaporthe oryzae through dual regulation of ergosterol biosynthesis and the detoxification enzyme MoDde1. Targeting MoDde1 via a small‐molecule inhibitor or host‐induced gene silencing enhances DMI efficacy against rice blast, offering a sustainable disease management strategy ...

Convergent evolution of chromosomal sex-determining regions in the animal and fungal kingdoms. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2004
Sexual identity is governed by sex chromosomes in plants and animals, and by mating type (MAT) loci in fungi. Comparative analysis of the MAT locus from a species cluster of the human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus revealed sequential evolutionary events ...

Unidirectional mating-type switching confers self-fertility to Thielaviopsis cerberus, the only homothallic species in the genus [PDF]

, 2021
Sexual reproduction is ubiquitous in nature, and nowhere is this more so than in the fungi. Heterothallic behaviour is observed when there is a strict requirement of contact between two individuals of opposite mating type for sexual reproduction to occur.

The Potential of Self‐Maintainable Living Materials

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Self‐maintainable living materials are presented as the next generation of bioadaptive systems, integrating continuous sensing, decision‐making, response, self‐repair, and adaptation in a closed‐loop framework. This review highlights the design principles and emerging technologies that enable autonomous, long‐term functionality for future regenerative ...

Which MAT gene? Pezizomycotina (Ascomycota) mating-type gene nomenclature reconsidered [PDF]

, 2017
Filamentous fungi in the subdivision Pezizomycotina (Ascomycota) display an impressive diversity of mating strategies. These mating systems are all controlled by the mating-type (MAT) genes, some of which are conserved, even among distantly related ...

Chrysanthemum Morifolium–Derived Nanovesicles Reduce Lactate‐Associated Histone Lactylation and Modulate Microglia‐Mediated Neuroinflammation in Sepsis‐Associated Encephalopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
When used to treat sepsis‐associated encephalopathy, Chrysanthemum morifolium–derived nanovesicles can inhibit the H3K18la/NF‐κB axis to regulate microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. ABSTRACT Sepsis‐associated encephalopathy (SAE)—a complication of the central nervous system in patients with sepsis—markedly diminishes cognitive functions and is linked

The Interplay Between Molybdopterin Synthase and Metal Metabolism Contributes to Pathogenicity in Acinetobacter baumannii

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pathogenic Acinetobacter baumannii scavenges metal ions as nutritional elements to survive within the host. This study demonstrates that molybdopterin synthase is essential for pathogenesis and full virulence during infection. Molybdopterin synthase subunit MoaE constitutes an intrinsically disordered C‐terminal histidine rich tail, which mediates ...
