Adaptation to different types of environmental stress is a common part of life for today's fungi. A deeper understanding of the organization, regulation and evolution of fungal stress response systems may lead to the development of novel antifungal drugs and technologies or the engineering of industrial strains with elevated stress tolerance. Here we present the Fungal Stress Response Database (http://internal.med.unideb.hu/fsrd) aimed to stimulate further research on stress biology of fungi. The database incorporates 1985 fungal stress response proteins with verified physiological function(s) and their orthologs identified and annotated in 28 species including human and plant pathogens, as well as important industrial fungi. The database will be extended continuously to cover other fully sequenced fungal species. Our database, as a starting point for future stress research, facilitates the analysis of literature data on stress and the identification of ortholog groups of stress response proteins in newly sequenced fungal genomes.

Changes in daily stress reactivity and changes in physical health across 18 years of adulthood.
Ann Behav Med
December 2024
Department of Human Development and Family Studies, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, 16803, United States.
Background: Stress plays a pivotal role in physical health. Although many studies have linked stress reactivity (daily within-person associations between stress exposure and negative affect) to physical health outcomes, we know surprisingly little about how changes in stress reactivity are related to changes in physical health.
Purpose: The current study examines how change in stress reactivity over 18 years is related to changes in functional health and chronic health conditions.
The interaction between sleep patterns and oxidative balance scores on the risk of cognitive function decline: Results from the national health and nutrition examination survey 2011-2014.
PLoS One
December 2024
Xiyuan Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Beijing, China.
Background: Unhealthy sleep and exposures to oxidative factors are both associated with poor cognitive performance (PCP), but limited evidence has been found regarding the relationship between sleep patterns and oxidative factor exposures independently or jointly with the risk of PCP.
Methods: We analyzed data from 2249 adults aged ≥60 years in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database (2011-2014). Self-reported questionnaires were used to collect data on sleep duration and sleep disorder, categorizing sleep duration into three groups based on responses: short (6 hours or less per night), normal (7-8 hours per night), or long (9 hours or more per night).
Maize drought protection by Azospirillum argentinense Az19 requires bacterial trehalose accumulation.
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol
December 2024
Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata (UNMdP), Ruta Provincial 226 Km 73.5, B7620, Balcarce, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Azospirillum argentinense Az19 is an osmotolerant plant growth-promoting bacterium that protects maize plants from drought. In this work, we explored the role of trehalose in the superior performance of Az19 under stress. The trehalase-coding gene treF was constitutively expressed in Az19 through a miniTn7 system.

CesA proteins response to arsenic stress in rice involves structural and regulatory mechanisms, highlighting the role of BES1/BZR1 transcript levels under arsenate exposure and significant downregulation of BZR1 protein expression. Plants interact with several hazardous metalloids during their life cycle through root and soil connection. One such metalloid, is arsenic and its perilous impact on rice cultivation is a well-known threat.

Health Management Center, Affiliated Nanhua Hospital, University of South China, Hengyang 421002, China.
Background: Obesity is the primary cause of metabolic associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Healthy lifestyle management has potential value in the treatment of MASLD.
Methods: A total of 150 patients with MASLD diagnosed at the Health Management Center of our hospital were enrolled and randomly divided into a traditional treatment (control group, n=75) and healthy lifestyle group (observation group, n=75).
