The excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis diseases. ROS are central to cellular redox regulation and act as second messengers activate redox-sensitive signals. Recent studies have revealed that certain sources can be beneficial or harmful human health. Considering essential pleiotropic roles basic physiological functions, future therapeutics should designed modulate state. Dietary phytochemicals, microbiota, metabolites derived from them expected developed drugs prevent treat disorders tumor microenvironment.

It is expected that the world population will reach 9 billion by 2050. Thus, meat, dairy or plant-based protein sources fail to meet global demand. New solutions must be offered find innovative and alternative sources. As a natural gift, edible wild mushrooms growing in wet shadow places can picked hand have been used as food. From searching forests producing single cell proteins (SCP) small scales mega production, academia, United Nations Organizations, industries, political makers others, play significant roles. Fermented traditional foods also reinvestigated. For example, kefir, miso, tempeh, are an excellent source for fungal isolates production. Fungi unique criteria of consuming various inexpensive wastes carbon energy biomass, concentrate amino acids with minimal requirement other environmental resources (e.g., light water). Fungal fermented SCP consumed either intentionally unintentionally our daily meals many applications food feed industries. This review addresses fungi animal feed, focusing mainly on SCP, mushrooms, foods, safety their consumption.

Endophytic fungi comprise host-associated fungal communities which thrive within the tissues of host plants and produce a diverse range secondary metabolites with various bioactive attributes. The such as phenols, polyketides, saponins, alkaloids help to mitigate biotic abiotic stresses, fight against pathogen attacks enhance plant immune system. We present an overview association endophytic discuss molecular mechanisms induced during their symbiotic interaction. focuses on (especially those terpenoid nature) secreted by respective function. recent advancement in multi-omics approaches paved way for identification these characterization via comparative analysis extensive omics datasets. This study also elaborates role associated key agricultural crops hence important sustainability agriculture.

Fungi play many roles in different ecosystems. The precise identification of fungi is important aspects. Historically, they were identified based on morphological characteristics, but technological advancements such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA sequencing now enable more accurate taxonomy, higher-level classifications. However, some species, referred to "dark taxa", lack distinct physical features that makes their challenging. High-throughput metagenomics environmental samples provide a solution identifying new lineages fungi. This paper discusses approaches including PCR amplification rDNA, multi-loci phylogenetic analyses, the importance various omics (large-scale molecular) techniques for understanding fungal applications. use proteomics, transcriptomics, metatranscriptomics, metabolomics, interactomics provides comprehensive These advanced technologies are critical expanding knowledge Kingdom Fungi, its impact food safety security, edible mushrooms foodomics, secondary metabolites, mycotoxin-producing fungi, biomedical therapeutic applications, antifungal drugs drug resistance, data novel development. also highlights exploring from extreme environments understudied areas identify dark taxa.

Sickle cell disease (SCD), a distinctive and often overlooked illness in the 21st century, is congenital blood disorder characterized by considerable phenotypic diversity. It comprises group of disorders, with sickle anemia (SCA) being most prevalent serious genotype. Although there have been some systematic reviews global data, worldwide statistics regarding SCD prevalence, morbidity, mortality remain scarce. In developed countries lower number patients, cutting-edge technologies led to development new treatments. However, developing settings where (SCD) more prevalent, medical management, rather than cure, still relies on use hydroxyurea, transfusions, analgesics. This that affects red cells, consequently affecting organs diverse manners. We discuss its etiology advent technologies, but aim this study understand various types nutrition-related studies involving individuals suffering from SCD, particularly Africa.

In recent years, there has been a considerable rise in the production of novel metabolites derived from fungi compared to ones originating bacteria. These organic substances are utilized various sectors such as farming, healthcare, and pharmaceutical. Since all dividing living cells contain primary metabolites, secondary synthesized by utilizing intermediate compounds or by-products generated metabolic pathways. Secondary not critical for growth development an organism; however, they exhibit variety distinct biological characteristics. White-rot only microorganisms able decompose wood components. Hence, play important role both carbon nitrogen cycles decomposing non-living substrates. They ubiquitous nature, particularly hardwood (e.g., birch aspen) forests. fungi, besides ligninolytic enzymes, produce different bioactive during their metabolism including some with antimicrobial anticancer properties. Such properties could be potential interest pharmaceutical industries. Considering importance untapped biologically active white-rot present paper reviews produced interesting bioactivities.

This study presents the first comprehensive proteomic profile of an Italian strain Schizophyllum commune, a highly heterogeneous white-rot fungal species with significant potential for industrial, nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and clinical applications. Three protein extraction methods their impact on yield resulting composition have been compared. Results revealed that combination Tris–Cl urea increases total variety enzymatic related to pivotal pathways. Notably, over 2000 proteins were identified, including enzymes involved in growth development mycelium, trehalose biosynthesis, different types carbohydrate-active (CAZymes). These are crucial nutraceutical agro-industrial applications S. commune. The multiple-step approach used could be model investigating other species.
