Plant-associated fungi (endophytic fungi) are a biodiversity-rich group of microorganisms that normally found asymptomatically within plant tissues or in the intercellular spaces. Endophytic promote growth host plants by directly producing secondary metabolites, which enhances plant’s resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Additionally, they capable biosynthesizing medically important “phytochemicals” were initially thought be produced only plant. In this review, we summarized some compounds from endophyte with novel structures diverse biological activities published between 2011 2021, focus on origin endophytic fungi, structural activity produce, special attention paid exploration pharmacological mechanisms action certain compounds. This review revealed had high potential harnessed as an alternative source metabolites for studies.

Endophytic microbes are microorganisms that colonize the intracellular spaces within plant tissues without exerting any adverse or pathological effects. Currently, world population is facing devastating chronic diseases affect humans. The resistance of pathogens to commercial antibiotics increasing, thus limiting therapeutic potential and effectiveness antibiotics. Consequently, need search for novel, affordable nontoxic natural bioactive compounds from endophytic fungi in developing new drugs with multifunction mechanisms meet human needs essential. Fungal endophytes produce invaluable metabolic beneficial humans antimicrobial, anticancer, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, antitumor properties, etc. Some these include pestacin, taxol, camptothecin, ergoflavin, podophyllotoxin, benzopyran, isopestacin, phloroglucinol, tetrahydroxy-1-methylxanthone, salidroside, borneol, dibenzofurane, methyl peniphenone, lipopeptide, peniphenone Despite aforementioned importance fungal metabolites, less information available on their exploration pharmacological importance. Therefore, this review, we shall elucidate metabolites medicinal plants potential.

Oxidative stress originates from an elevated intracellular level of free oxygen radicals that cause lipid peroxidation, protein denaturation, DNA hydroxylation, and apoptosis, ultimately impairing cell viability. Antioxidants scavenge reduce oxidative stress, which further helps to prevent cellular damage. Medicinal plants, fruits, spices are the primary sources antioxidants time immemorial. In contrast microorganisms can be used as a source with advantage fast growth under controlled conditions. Further, microbe-based nontoxic, noncarcinogenic, biodegradable compared synthetic antioxidants. The present review aims summarize current state research on antioxidant activity including actinomycetes, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, microalgae, yeast, produce variety compounds, i.e., carotenoids, polyphenols, vitamins, sterol, etc. Special emphasis is given mechanisms signaling pathways followed by Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), especially for those compounds have been scarcely investigated so far.

The agricultural sustainability concept considers higher food production combating biotic and abiotic stresses, socio-economic well-being, environmental conservation. On the contrary, global warming-led climatic changes have appalling consequences on agriculture, generating shifting rainfall patterns, high temperature, CO2, drought, etc., prompting stress conditions for plants. Such stresses abandon plants to thrive, demoting productivity ultimately hampering security. Though issues are natural cannot be regulated, can still enabled endure these abnormal conditions, reinforcing resilience in an eco-friendly fashion by incorporating fungal endophytes. Endophytic fungi a group of subtle, non-pathogenic microorganisms establishing mutualistic association with diverse plant species. Their varied host under dynamic environments boosts endogenic tolerance mechanism against various via overall modulations local systemic mechanisms accompanied antioxidants secretion, ample enough scavenge Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) hence, coping over-expression defensive redox regulatory system as aversion stressed condition.
