Arabidopsis thaliana accumulates DHEA after infection with phytopathogenic fungi - effects on plants and fungi

ABSTRACT: Progestogens and androgens have been found in many plants, but their physiological functions remain unclear. We here show that the dehydroepiandrosterone, a C19-steroid, accumulates during infection of A. thaliana with the pathogenic fungus A. brassicicola. Moreover, dehydroepiandrosterone inhibits growth of the A. brassicicola in an ergosterol-independent way. We hypothesize that this is caused by an infection-adapted metabolism of A. thaliana as part of stress-response.

Progestogens and androgens influence root morphology of angiosperms in a brassinosteroid-independent way - C21- and C19-steroids a novel class of phytohormones?

Project description:Progestogens and androgens are steroids that have been found in a broad range of plants, but little is known about their physiological function. Within this study we sowed seeds of angiosperms on progestogen- and androgen-containing medium and analyzed the morphological effects. Moreover, we analyzed the effects of progesterone and testosterone on brassinosteroid profiles and gene expression of A. thaliana. Additionally, we analyzed the effects of progesterone and testosterone on A. thaliana plants that overexpress the steroid 5α-reductase DET2. We found that progestogens and androgens have strong negative effects on root length particularly in Brassicaceae species. Moreover, these steroids led to uncoordinated cell growth and enhanced lateral root formation. We could not detect an influence on brassinosteroid profiles and gene expression of brassinosteroid-regulated genes. The overexpression of DET2 led to enhanced root growth, but the effects of progesterone and testosterone were not reduced. We conclude that progestogens and androgens act in a brassinosteroid-independent way. We see this as a hint that progestogens and androgens might be a novel class of steroidal phytohormones in plants.

T-cell DNA methylation in addicts treated with DHEA

Project description:Previous studies in animal models of cocaine craving have delineated broad changes in DNA methylation profiles in the nucleus accumbens. A crucial factor for progress in behavioral and mental health epigenetics is the discovery of epigenetic markers in peripheral tissues. Several studies in primates and humans have associated differences in behavioral phenotypes with changes in DNA methylation in T cells and brain. Herein, we present a pilot study (n=27) showing that the T cell DNA methylation profile differentiates persons with a substance use disorder from controls. Intervention with dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), previously shown to have a long-term therapeutic effect on human addicts herein resulted in reversal of DNA methylation changes in behavioral pathways associated with the addictive state.

Genera of phytopathogenic fungi: GOPHY 1.

Project description:Genera of Phytopathogenic Fungi (GOPHY) is introduced as a new series of publications in order to provide a stable platform for the taxonomy of phytopathogenic fungi. This first paper focuses on 21 genera of phytopathogenic fungi: Bipolaris, Boeremia, Calonectria, Ceratocystis, Cladosporium, Colletotrichum, Coniella, Curvularia, Monilinia, Neofabraea, Neofusicoccum, Pilidium, Pleiochaeta, Plenodomus, Protostegia, Pseudopyricularia, Puccinia, Saccharata, Thyrostroma, Venturia and Wilsonomyces. For each genus, a morphological description and information about its pathology, distribution, hosts and disease symptoms are provided. In addition, this information is linked to primary and secondary DNA barcodes of the presently accepted species, and relevant literature. Moreover, several novelties are introduced, i.e. new genera, species and combinations, and neo-, lecto- and epitypes designated to provide a stable taxonomy. This first paper includes one new genus, 26 new species, ten new combinations, and four typifications of older names.

Symptomatic plant viroid infections in phytopathogenic fungi.

Project description:Viroids are pathogenic agents that have a small, circular noncoding RNA genome. They have been found only in plant species; therefore, their infectivity and pathogenicity in other organisms remain largely unexplored. In this study, we investigate whether plant viroids can replicate and induce symptoms in filamentous fungi. Seven plant viroids representing viroid groups that replicate in either the nucleus or chloroplast of plant cells were inoculated to three plant pathogenic fungi, Cryphonectria parasitica, Valsa mali, and Fusarium graminearum By transfection of fungal spheroplasts with viroid RNA transcripts, each of the three, hop stunt viroid (HSVd), iresine 1 viroid, and avocado sunblotch viroid, can stably replicate in at least one of those fungi. The viroids are horizontally transmitted through hyphal anastomosis and vertically through conidia. HSVd infection severely debilitates the growth of V. mali but not that of the other two fungi, while in F. graminearum and C. parasitica, with deletion of dicer-like genes, the primary components of the RNA-silencing pathway, HSVd accumulation increases. We further demonstrate that HSVd can be bidirectionally transferred between F. graminearum and plants during infection. The viroids also efficiently infect fungi and induce disease symptoms when the viroid RNAs are exogenously applied to the fungal mycelia. These findings enhance our understanding of viroid replication, host range, and pathogenicity, and of their potential spread to other organisms in nature.

Sterol biosynthesis is regulated by a sophisticated regulatory network involving multiple transcription factors in fungi

Project description:Ergosterol, a pivotal constituent of the fungal cell membrane, plays a crucial role in diverse cellular activities. Fungi inherently regulate ergosterol homeostasis, a process traditionally associated with the control of a major transcription factor, like SREBP, activated in response to ergosterol depletion, regardless of which ergosterol biosynthesis step is affected. Contrary to the established paradigm, our investigation demonstrates that the inhibition of ergosterol biosynthesis at specific steps triggers distinct transcriptional responses in erg genes across fungi, including Neurospora crassa, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Fusarium verticillioides. In N. crassa, the targeted responses are orchestrated by several transcription factors that have undergone functional rewiring. Specifically, ERG24 inhibition by amorolfine activates transcription factors SAH-2 and AtrR, resulting in the upregulation of erg24, erg2, erg25 and erg3. Additionally, ERG11 inhibition by azoles activates transcription factor NcSR, leading to the upregulation of erg11 and erg6. Our findings unveil a novel sophisticated regulation model of sterol biosynthesis in fungi which potentially enhances fungal survival in complex environments, thus providing new insights into sterol homeostasis maintenance and a deeper understanding of drug resistance mechanisms in fungi.
