Adipokinetic Hormones Enhance the Efficacy of the Entomopathogenic Fungus Isaria fumosorosea in Model and Pest Insects

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Insect adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) are neuropeptides with a wide range of actions, including the control of insect energy metabolism. These hormones are also known to be involved in the insect defence system against toxins and pathogens.

Enrichment of Isaria felina culture with selenium enhances its in vivo antitumor effects on H22 hepatoma via decreasing the expression of VEGF.

open access: yesAnti-Cancer Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 2023
Background The polysaccharide extract of C. sinensis, Isaria felina (IF), has antitumor effects. Selenium (Se) can improve disease prevention and reduce the toxicity of toxic elements, but the effect of Se-enriched IF on hepatoma remains unknown ...

Limitations of Common Molecular Markers in Fungal Biodiversity Analysis and the Benefits of Their Synergistic Use. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions is the primary method for estimating fungal diversity from environmental DNA. However, reliance solely on ITS markers is complicated by its high variability in sequence length and the presence of multiple variants within a single genome, which can bias diversity ...
