Tetranychus evansi spider mite populations suppress tomato defenses to varying degrees
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Plant defense suppression is an offensive strategy of herbivores, in which they manipulate plant physiological processes to increase their performance. Paradoxically, defense suppression does not always benefit the defense‐suppressing herbivores, because

A comprehensive meta-analysis reveals the key variables and scope of seed defense priming
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 BackgroundWhen encountered with pathogens or herbivores, the activation of plant defense results in a penalty in plant fitness. Even though plant priming has the potential of enhancing resistance without fitness cost, hurdles such as mode of application ...

Plant defense after flooding [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2013 Since the first study of hypoxic response in plants with cDNA microarray in 2002, the number of hypoxia-responsive genes has grown to more than 2000. However, to date, only small numbers of hypoxia-responsive genes are known to confer hypoxic resistance.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Defense and counterdefense in the plant world
, 2006 An important role of RNA interference (RNAi)-like pathways in plants is defense against viral infection. Viruses can overcome this defense by expressing proteins that suppress the pathway.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Lectins as Plant Defense Proteins [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1995 Many plant species contain carbohydrate-binding proteins, which are commonly referred to as either lectins or agglutinins. Generally speaking, lectins are proteins that bind reversibly to specific monoor oligosaccharides. Since the initial discovery of a hemagglutinating factor in castor bean extracts by Stillmark in 1888, several hundred of these ...

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
