In <i>Drosophila</i>, seven classical antimicrobial peptide (AMP) gene families were identified in the 1990s. These genes are primarily regulated by the TOLL and IMD NF-κB pathways in response to infection. Analyses of mutants have revealed their important roles, including a surprising degree of peptide-microbe specificity at the effector level, in the host defense against gram-negative bacteria and fungi. Many new families of host defense peptides (HDPs) with unknown mechanisms of action are now being investigated. One prominent example is the Bomanins, which are peptides with an essential role in combatting infection by practically all gram-positive bacteria and fungi. Recent studies suggest that AMPs may have broader roles beyond direct antimicrobial activity, notably in the brain and behavior.

Purine synthesis is metabolically and energetically expensive; thus, under physiological conditions, intermediates of purine degradation are efficiently reused through salvage pathways. Excess purines are oxidized and eliminated via the kidneys and intestine. The efficient elimination of excess purines in humans is critical because the primary waste product of purine metabolism, uric acid, is proinflammatory and has been linked to multiple health conditions. Recent studies suggest that gut bacteria influence the purine pool locally and systemically. Bacteria can break down uric acid and other purines aerobically and anaerobically and may regulate their homeostasis.

While these 24-h cycles are well-characterized in model organisms, their role in parasitic organisms has remained largely unexplored until recently. Here, we review emerging evidence that parasites possess intrinsic timekeeping abilities, focusing particularly on the malaria parasite <i>Plasmodium</i>. We examine two principal paradigms of biological timing: transcriptional-translational feedback loops and posttranscriptional feedback loops. Despite lacking canonical clock genes found in other eukaryotes, <i>Plasmodium</i> employs sophisticated regulatory machinery, including ApiAP2 transcription factors, chromatin regulators, and noncoding RNAs, that could form novel timing circuits. We discuss how these mechanisms might enable parasites to synchronize with host rhythms and optimize their development and transmission. Understanding these temporal regulatory networks could reveal new therapeutic strategies and expand our knowledge of biological timing mechanisms across evolution.</p>","PeriodicalId":7946,"journal":{"name":"Annual review of microbiology","volume":"79 1","pages":"731-751"},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12692157/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145353411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In general, pathogen emergence is restricted by the ability of fungi to sense and withstand human host environmental cues and stresses. These stress responses in fungi involve immediate survival reactions as well as long-term adaptations. Additionally, some opportunistic pathogenic behavior suggests that virulence traits evolved for environmental survival, a concept known as exaptation. This review covers recent advances in examining fungal responses to host environments and focuses on stress pathways including HOG (high osmolarity glycerol) and CWI (cell wall integrity), thermotolerance mechanisms, CO<sub>2</sub> and oxygen sensing, nutrient and metal stresses, pH adaptation, and antimicrobial defenses.

Some of the most lichen-like results, for their part, were obtained from nonaxenic tissue culture. Only a few studies reported obtaining natural-looking lichens from axenic input cultures, but all appear to have been isolated successes obtained against the background of extensive contamination.

Per whole genome sequencing, allele inheritance is Mendelian and involves meiosis-like recombination of the nuclear genome. Deletion of meiosis- and plasmogamy-related genes reveals their requirement for successful hybridization. Mitochondrial DNA inheritance appears uniparental for maxicircle kinetoplast DNA (kDNA) but biparental for minicircle kDNA. To account for the current absence of identified haploid gametes and for the hybridization of aneuploid genomes, alternative modes of genetic exchange have been proposed.
