Anti-Therapeutic Action: increased disease susceptibility

Unveiling roles of beneficial gut bacteria and optimal diets for health

mycolabadmin

Your gut bacteria are tiny living organisms that help digest food, support your immune system, and influence your overall health. Eating foods rich in fiber, fermented products like yogurt and kimchi, and colorful fruits and vegetables helps grow these beneficial bacteria. When your gut bacteria become unbalanced, it can lead to inflammation and various diseases, but eating the right foods can restore balance and improve your health.

Current Insights into Sublethal Effects of Pesticides on Insects

mycolabadmin

This comprehensive review examines how pesticides harm insects at doses that don’t immediately kill them. Sublethal pesticide exposure weakens insects’ immune systems, disrupts reproduction and development, and impairs critical behaviors like navigation, feeding, and learning. The research shows these effects vary by insect species, age, and exposure type, and that pesticide combinations can be far more harmful than individual chemicals alone.

Transcription Factor PFB1 Is Required for the Botrytis cinerea Effector BcSCR1-Mediated Pathogenesis

mycolabadmin

Researchers discovered how a fungal disease (grey mould) spreads by identifying a toxic protein it produces that disables a plant’s defense system. The fungal protein BcSCR1 sneaks into plant cells and targets a control switch called PFB1 that normally turns on genes protecting plants from infection. By blocking this control switch, the fungus weakens the plant’s immune defenses and establishes infection more easily.
