In this study, <em>S. frugiperda</em> GBP (SfGBP) was identified and functionally characterized. SfGBP is synthesized as a 146 amino acid proprotein with a 24 amino acid C-terminal active peptide (Glu123-Gly146). Predominant expression of <em>SfGBP</em> occurs in fourth to sixth instar larvae and in the larval fat body, with significant upregulation in response to pathogens and pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Injection of the synthetic active peptide into larvae induced growth retardation, delayed pupation, and increased survival against <em>Beauveria bassiana</em> infection. Conversely, RNA interference-mediated knockdown of <em>SfGBP</em> resulted in accelerated growth, earlier pupation, and decreased survival against <em>B. bassiana</em> infection. Further analysis revealed that SfGBP promoted SF9 cell proliferation and spreading, enhanced bacteriostatic activity of larval hemolymph, and directly inhibited germination of <em>B. bassiana</em> conidia. In addition, SfGBP enhanced humoral responses, such as upregulation of immunity-related genes and generation of reactive oxygen species, and cellular responses, such as nodulation, phagocytosis, and encapsulation.

Epidemiological investigations have recently shown the implications of exposure to FNT in the incidence of various metabolic diseases, such as diabetes mellitus in humans, indicating that FNT may be a potential endocrine disruptor. However, the effects of FNT exposure on glucose homeostasis and their underlying mechanisms in model organisms remain largely unknown, which may limit our understanding of the health risks of FNT. In this study, FNT (4 5, 90, 180, and 4 50 μM) exposure model of rat hepatocytes (Buffalo Rat Liver, BRL cells) was established to investigate the effects and potential mechanisms of its toxicity on glucose metabolism. Several key processes of glucose metabolism were detected in this study. The results showed significantly increased glucose levels in the culture medium and decreased glycogen content in the FNT-exposed BRL cells. The results of quantitative real-time PCR and enzymology showed the abnormal expression of genes and activity/content of glucose metabolic enzymes involved in glucose metabolism, which might promote gluconeogenesis and inhibit glucose uptake, glycolysis, and glycogenesis. Furthermore, gluconeogenesis and glycolytic were carried out in the mitochondrial membrane. The abnormal of mitochondrial membrane potential may be a potential mechanism underlying FNT-induced glucose metabolism disorder. In addition, the mRNA and protein expression implicated that FNT may disrupt glucose metabolism by inhibiting the AMPKα and IRS1/PI3K/AKT signaling pathways.

The T92C mutation in a tetraspanin gene (<em>HaTSPAN1</em>), resulting in the L31S substitution, is associated with dominant resistance to Cry1Ac in a major pest, <em>Helicoverpa armigera</em>.

Biological control is becoming increasingly prevalent in the management of plant diseases due to its environmental compatibility and sustainability. In the present study, a bacterial strain, designated as OPF-9, was shown to effectively inhibit the pathogen <em>A. longipes</em>, which was identified as <em>Streptomyces globosus</em>. The culture conditions for OPF-9 were optimized through a stepwise approach and the fermentation broth acquired displayed an excellent inhibitory activity against <em>A. longipes</em> in vitro and in vivo<em>.</em> Further investigations suggested that the fermentation broth exhibited strong stability under a range of adverse environmental conditions. To reveal the molecular bases of OPF-9 in inhibiting pathogens, the whole-genome sequencing and assembly were conducted on this strain. It showed that the genome size of OPF-9 was 7.668 Mb, containing a chromosome and two plasmids. Multiple clusters of secondary metabolite synthesis genes were identified by genome annotation analysis. In addition, the fermentation broth of strain OPF-9 was analyzed by LC-MS/MS non-target metabolomic assay and the activity of potential antifungal substances was determined. Among the five compounds evaluated, pyrogallol displayed the most pronounced inhibitory activity against <em>A. longipes</em>, which was found to effectively inhibit the mycelial growth of this pathogen. Overall, this study reported, for the first time, a strain of <em>S. globosus</em> that effectively inhibits <em>A. longipes</em> and revealed the underlying biocontrol mechanisms by genomic and metabolomic analyses.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":19828,"journal":{"name":"Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142083942","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
