Mechanistic study on the effect of hydroxypropyl corn starch, guar gum and compound phosphates on the freeze-thaw quality of quick-frozen kuey teow.

Kuey teow is one of the delicacies of Guangdong, China and is a gluten-free noodle dish made from rice. It has a short storage period and extending the shelf life by quick freezing induces quality deterioration due to temperature fluctuations. To improve its freeze-thaw frozen storage quality, this paper examined the effects of hydroxypropyl corn starch (HCS), guar gum (GG), and compound phosphates (CP) on the quality of quick-frozen kuey teow during freeze-thaw cycles. The mechanism was investigated by identifying changes in the moisture status, aging degree of the starch, and textural and cooking characteristics. The results showed that all three additions improved the toughness, chewiness and steaming characteristics of the kuey teow, with CP significantly enhancing chewiness. XRD and FTIR results revealed that GG more significantly inhibited the decrease of starch crystallinity, while HCS inhibited starch aging. GG, HCS and CP all improved the hydration characteristics and water holding capacity of rice starch. GG enhances the ability of starch to bind more tightly with water, resulting in a more uniform water distribution and a more continuous and tight structure of the kuey teow. This study will provide a theoretical basis for compounding and optimizing the quick-freezing of kuey teow.

An Audiovisual Correlation Matching Method Based on Fine-Grained Emotion and Feature Fusion.

Most existing intelligent editing tools for music and video rely on the cross-modal matching technology of the affective consistency or the similarity of feature representations. However, these methods are not fully applicable to complex audiovisual matching scenarios, resulting in low matching accuracy and suboptimal audience perceptual effects due to ambiguous matching rules and associated factors. To address these limitations, this paper focuses on both the similarity and integration of affective distribution for the artistic audiovisual works of movie and television video and music. Based on the rich emotional perception elements, we propose a hybrid matching model based on feature canonical correlation analysis (CCA) and fine-grained affective similarity. The model refines KCCA fusion features by analyzing both matched and unmatched music-video pairs. Subsequently, the model employs XGBoost to predict relevance and to compute similarity by considering fine-grained affective semantic distance as well as affective factor distance. Ultimately, the matching prediction values are obtained through weight allocation. Experimental results on a self-built dataset demonstrate that the proposed affective matching model balances feature parameters and affective semantic cognitions, yielding relatively high prediction accuracy and better subjective experience of audiovisual association. This paper is crucial for exploring the affective association mechanisms of audiovisual objects from a sensory perspective and improving related intelligent tools, thereby offering a novel technical approach to retrieval and matching in music-video editing.

Effects of hydrogen-rich water on blood uric acid in patients with hyperuricemia: A randomized placebo-controlled trial.

Background: Consumption of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and metabolic-modulatory benefits. Objective: A randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted to assess the potential blood uric acid-lowering effects of HRW consumption with different doses (low and high doses) and duration (4 and 8 weeks) in patients with hyperuricemia. Methods: The Placebo group consumed three bottles of ordinary drinking water (330 mL per bottle), the Low-HRW group consumed two bottles of HRW (330 mL per bottle, H2 ≥ 4.66 mg/L) and a bottle of ordinary water, and the High-HRW group consumed three bottles of HRW daily for 8 weeks. The primary outcome was the blood uric acid levels following different time points (4 and 8 weeks) compared to baseline. Results: A total of 100 participants completed the entire trial (32 in Placebo, 35 in Low-HRW, and 33 in High-HRW groups). The high-dose of HRW was more effective than low-dose HRW in controlling blood uric acid. Following an 8-week period, the High-HRW group exhibited a significant reduction in blood uric acid levels compared to the baseline (488.2 ± 54.1 µmol/L to 446.8 ± 57.1 µmol/L, P < 0.05). Conclusion: As a rather safe agent, the prolonged consumption of HRW may be feasible in the management of hyperuricemia. Clinical trial registration: chictr.org.cn, identifier ChiCTR2200066369.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel diphenylamine analogues as NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors.

The aberrant activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome has been implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous inflammation-related diseases. Development of NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors is expected to provide a new strategy for the treatment of these diseases. Herein, a novel series of diphenylamine derivatives were designed based on the lead compounds H20 and H28, and the preliminary structure-activity relationship was studied. The representative compound 19 displayed significantly higher inhibitory activity against NLRP3 inflammasome compared to lead compounds H20 and H28, with an IC50 of 0.34 µM. Mechanistic studies indicated that compound 19 directly targets the NLRP3 protein (KD: 0.45 µM), blocking the assembly and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, leading to anti-inflammatory effects and inhibition of cellular pyroptosis. Our findings indicated that compound 19 is a promising NLRP3 inhibitor and could potentially serve as a lead compound for further optimization.

AmTPS6 promotes trehalose biosynthesis to enhance the Cd tolerance in mangrove Avicennia marina.

Cadmium (Cd) pollution poses a significant ecological risk to mangrove ecosystems. Trehalose has excellent potential to mitigate the adverse effects of heavy metals. Unfortunately, the mechanisms related to trehalose-mediated heavy metal tolerance in plants remain elusive. In the present study, we firstly found that Cd induced the accumulation of trehalose and the differential expression of trehalose biosynthesis genes in the roots of mangrove plant Avicennia marina. Then, we found that the application of exogenous trehalose could alleviate the negative effects of Cd on A. marina by phenotypic observation. In addition, photosynthetic parameters and cellular ultrastructure analyses demonstrated that exogenous trehalose could improve the photosynthesis and stabilize the chloroplast and nuclear structure of the leaves of A. marina. Besides, exogenous trehalose could inhibit the Cd2+ influx from the root to reduce the Cd2+ content in A. marina. Subsequently, substrate sensitivity assay combined with ion uptake analysis using yeast cells showed that several trehalose biosynthesis genes may have a regulatory function for Cd2+ transport. Finally, we further identified a positive regulatory factor, AmTPS6, which enhances the Cd tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana. Taken together, these findings provide new understanding to the mechanism of Cd tolerance in mangrove A. marina at trehalose aspect and a theoretical basis for the conservation of mangroves in coastal wetlands.

Involvement of BRD4 in alcoholic liver injury: Autophagy modulation via regulation of the SIRT1/Beclin1 axis.

Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) caused by chronic alcohol abuse involves complex processes from steatosis to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma, posing a global health issue. Bromodomain protein 4 (BRD4) typically serves as a "reader" modulating the functions of transcription factors involved in various biological processes and disease progression. However, the specific mechanisms underlying alcoholic liver injury remain unclear. Here, we detected aberrant BRD4 expression in the alcohol-induced ALD mouse model of chronic and binge ethanol feeding developed by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA model), consistent with the in vitro results in Aml-12 mouse hepatocytes. Blocking and inhibiting BRD4 restored the impaired autophagic flux and lysosomal functions in alcohol-treated Aml-12 cells, whereas BRD4 overexpression reduced the expression levels of autophagy marker and lysosomal genes. Furthermore, mouse BRD4 knockdown, mediated by a short hairpin RNA carried by the adeno-associated virus serotype 8, significantly attenuated the alcohol-induced hepatocyte damage, including lipid deposition and inflammatory cell infiltration. Mechanistically, BRD4 overexpression in alcoholic liver injury inhibited the expression of sirtuin (SIRT)-1 in Aml-12 cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays revealed that BRD4 functions as a transcription factor and suppressor, actively binding to the SIRT1 promoter region and inhibiting its transcription. SIRT1 activated autophagy, which was suppressed in alcoholic liver injury via Beclin1 deacetylation. In conclusion, our study revealed that BRD4 negatively regulated the SIRT1/Beclin1 axis and that its deficiency alleviated alcohol-induced liver injury in mice, thus providing a new strategy for ALD treatment.

AMPK, a hub for the microenvironmental regulation of bone homeostasis and diseases.

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a crucial regulatory kinase, monitors energy levels, conserving ATP and boosting synthesis in low-nutrition, low-energy states. Its sensitivity links microenvironmental changes to cellular responses. As the primary support structure and endocrine organ, the maintenance, and repair of bones are closely associated with the microenvironment. While a series of studies have explored the effects of specific microenvironments on bone, there is lack of angles to comprehensively evaluate the interactions between microenvironment and bone cells, especially for bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) which mediate the differentiation of osteogenic lineage. It is noteworthy that accumulating evidence has indicated that AMPK may serve as a hub between BMMSCs and microenvironment factors, thus providing a new perspective for us to understand the biology and pathophysiology of stem cells and bone. In this review, we emphasize AMPK's pivotal role in bone microenvironment modulation via ATP, inflammation, reactive oxygen species (ROS), calcium, and glucose, particularly in BMMSCs. We further explore the use of AMPK-activating drugs in the context of osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. Moreover, building upon the foundation of AMPK, we elucidate a viewpoint that facilitates a comprehensive understanding of the dynamic relationship between the microenvironment and bone homeostasis, offering valuable insights for prospective investigations into stem cell biology and the treatment of bone diseases.

The application potential of iMSCs and iMSC-EVs in diseases.

The immune system, functioning as the body's "defense army", plays a role in surveillance, defense. Any disruptions in immune system can lead to the development of immune-related diseases. Extensive researches have demonstrated the crucial immunoregulatory role of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in these diseases. Of particular interest is the ability to induce somatic cells under specific conditions, generating a new cell type with stem cell characteristics known as induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC). The differentiation of iPSCs into MSCs, specifically induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells (iMSCs), hold promise as a potential solution to the challenges of MSCs, potentially serving as an alternative to traditional drug therapies. Moreover, the products of iMSCs, termed induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (iMSC-EVs), may exhibit functions similar to iMSCs. With the biological advantages of EVs, they have become the focus of "cell-free therapy". Here, we provided a comprehensive summary of the biological impact of iMSCs on immune cells, explored the applications of iMSCs and iMSC-EVs in diseases, and briefly discussed the fundamental characteristics of EVs. Finally, we overviewed the current advantages and challenges associated with iMSCs and iMSC-EVs. It is our hope that this review related to iMSCs and iMSC-EVs will contribute to the development of new approaches for the treatment of diseases.

Synergistic effect of additional anlotinib and immunotherapy as second-line or later-line treatment in pancreatic cancer: A retrospective cohort study.

Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is in urgent need of a second-line or later-line treatment strategy. We aimed to analyze the efficacy and safety of additional anlotinib, specifically anlotinib in combination with immunotherapy, in patients with PDAC who have failed first-line therapy. Methods: Patients with pathological diagnosis of PDAC were additionally treated with anlotinib, and some patients were treated with anti-PD-1 agents at the same time, which could be retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy and safety of additional anlotinib were evaluated. Results: A total of 23 patients were included. In patients treated with additional anlotinib, the overall median progression-free survival (PFS) was 1.8 months and the median overall survival (OS) was 6.3 months, regardless of anti-PD-1 agents. Among patients receiving additional anlotinib in combination with anti-PD-1 agents, median PFS and OS were 1.8 and 6.5 months, respectively. Adverse events (AEs) were observed in 16 patients (69.6%). In patients treated with additional anlotinib, the majority of AEs were grade 1-3. Univariate analysis revealed that patients with baseline red blood cell distribution width (RDW) <14% treated with additional anlotinib plus anti-PD-1 agents had significantly longer OS than patients with baseline RDW ≥14% (p = 0.025). Patients with additional anlotinib plus anti-PD-1 agents as second-line therapy had a longer OS than those treated as later-line therapy (p = 0.012). Multivariate analysis showed that baseline RDW was the only independent risk factor for OS (p = 0.042). Conclusion: The combination of anlotinib and immunotherapy represents an effective add-on therapy with tolerable AEs as second- or later-line therapy in patients with PDAC, particularly in patients with baseline RDW <14%.

A single dose of VEGF-A circular RNA sustains in situ long-term expression of protein to accelerate diabetic wound healing.

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), which is characterised by damage to minute blood vessels or capillaries around wounds, is one of the most serious and dreaded complications of diabetes. It is challenging to repair chronic non-healing DFU wounds. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in angiogenesis and promotes wound healing in DFU. However, it is difficult to sustainably deliver VEGF to the wound site owing to its poor stability and easy degradation. To overcome this challenge, lipid nanoparticles (LNP) encapsulating circular RNA (circRNA) encoding VEGF-A have been developed to continuously generate and release VEGF-A and accelerate diabetic wound healing. First, VEGF-A circRNA was synthesized using group I intron autocatalysis strategy and confirmed by enzyme digestion, polymerase chain reaction, and sequencing assay. VEGF-A circRNA was encapsulated in ionizable lipid U-105-derived LNP (U-LNP) using microfluidic technology to fabricate U-LNP/VEGF-A circRNA. For comparison, a commercially ionizable lipid ALC-0315-derived LNP (A-LNP) encapsulating circRNA (A-LNP/circRNA) was used. Dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy characterization indicated that U-LNP/circRNA had spherical structure with an average diameter of 108.5 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.22, and a zeta potential of -3.31 mV. The messenger RNA (mRNA) encapsulation efficiency (EE%) of U-LNP was 87.12%. In vitro transfection data confirmed better stability and long-term VEGF-A expression of circRNA compared with linear mRNA. Assessment of cytotoxicity and innate immunity further revealed that U-LNP/circRNA was biocompatible and induced a weak congenital immune response. Cell scratch and angiogenesis tests demonstrated the bioactivity of U-LNP/VEGF-A circRNA owing to its VEGF-A expression. In situ bioluminescence imaging of firefly luciferase (F-Luc) probe and ELISA demonstrated that circRNA had long-term and strong expression of VEGF-A in the first week, and a gradual decrease in the next week at the wound site and surrounding areas. Finally, a diabetic mouse model was used to validate the healing effect of U-LNP/VEGF-A circRNA formulation. The results showed that a single dose of U-LNP/VEGF-A circRNA administered by dripping resulted in almost complete wound recovery on day 12, which was significantly superior to that of U-LNP/VEGF-A linear mRNA, and it also outperformed recombinant human vascular endothelial growth factor (rhVEGF) injection and A-LNP/circRNA dripping. Histological analysis confirmed the healing efficiency and low toxicity of U-LNP/VEGF-A circRNA formulation. Together, VEGF-A circRNA delivered by U-105-derived LNP showed good performance in wound healing, which was ascribed to the long-term expression and continuous release of VEGF-A, and has potential applications for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer wounds.

Synergistic induction of mitotic pyroptosis and tumor remission by inhibiting proteasome and WEE family kinases.

Mitotic catastrophe (MC), which occurs under dysregulated mitosis, represents a fascinating tactic to specifically eradicate tumor cells. Whether pyroptosis can be a death form of MC remains unknown. Proteasome-mediated protein degradation is crucial for M-phase. Bortezomib (BTZ), which inhibits the 20S catalytic particle of proteasome, is approved to treat multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma, but not solid tumors due to primary resistance. To date, whether and how proteasome inhibitor affected the fates of cells in M-phase remains unexplored. Here, we show that BTZ treatment, or silencing of PSMC5, a subunit of 19S regulatory particle of proteasome, causes G2- and M-phase arrest, multi-polar spindle formation, and consequent caspase-3/GSDME-mediated pyroptosis in M-phase (designated as mitotic pyroptosis). Further investigations reveal that inhibitor of WEE1/PKMYT1 (PD0166285), but not inhibitor of ATR, CHK1 or CHK2, abrogates the BTZ-induced G2-phase arrest, thus exacerbates the BTZ-induced mitotic arrest and pyroptosis. Combined BTZ and PD0166285 treatment (named BP-Combo) selectively kills various types of solid tumor cells, and significantly lessens the IC50 of both BTZ and PD0166285 compared to BTZ or PD0166285 monotreatment. Studies using various mouse models show that BP-Combo has much stronger inhibition on tumor growth and metastasis than BTZ or PD0166285 monotreatment, and no obvious toxicity is observed in BP-Combo-treated mice. These findings disclose the effect of proteasome inhibitors in inducing pyroptosis in M-phase, characterize pyroptosis as a new death form of mitotic catastrophe, and identify dual inhibition of proteasome and WEE family kinases as a promising anti-cancer strategy to selectively kill solid tumor cells.

Biological function and small molecule inhibitors of histone deacetylase 11.

HDAC11, as a rising star in the histone deacetylase (HDAC) family, has attracted widespread interest in the biomedical field in recent years specially owing to its high defatty-acylase activity compared its innate deacetylase activity. Numerous studies have provided evidence indicating the crucial involvement of HDAC11 in cancers, immune responses, and metabolic processes. Several potent and selective HDAC11 inhibitors have been discovered and identified, which is crucial for exploring the function of HDAC11 and its potential therapeutic applications. Herein, we present a critical overview of the current advances in the biological function of HDAC11 and its inhibitors. We initially discuss the physiological functions of HDAC11 and its pathological roles in relevant diseases. Subsequently, our main focus centers on the design strategy and development process of HDAC11 inhibitors. Additionally, we address significant challenges and outline future directions in this field. This perspective may provide guidance for the further development of HDAC11 inhibitors and their prospects in disease treatment.

Identification of Selective Imidazopyridine CSF1R Inhibitors.

Colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF1R or c-FMS), a class III receptor tyrosine kinase expressed on members of the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS), plays a key role in the proper functioning of macrophages, microglia, and related cells. Aberrant signaling through CSF1R has been associated with a variety of disease states, including cancer, inflammation, and neurodegeneration. In this Letter, we detail our efforts to develop novel CSF1R inhibitors. Drawing on previously described compounds, including GW2580 (4), we have discovered a novel series of compounds based on the imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine scaffold. Initial structure-activity relationship studies culminated in the identification of 36, a lead compound with potent CSF1R biochemical and cellular activity, acceptable in vitro ADME properties, and oral exposure in rat.

Neurotoxic ß-amyloid oligomers cause mitochondrial dysfunction-the trigger for PANoptosis in neurons.

As the global population ages, the incidence of elderly patients with dementia, represented by Alzheimer's disease (AD), will continue to increase. Previous studies have suggested that ß-amyloid protein (Aß) deposition is a key factor leading to AD. However, the clinical efficacy of treating AD with anti-Aß protein antibodies is not satisfactory, suggesting that Aß amyloidosis may be a pathological change rather than a key factor leading to AD. Identification of the causes of AD and development of corresponding prevention and treatment strategies is an important goal of current research. Following the discovery of soluble oligomeric forms of Aß (AßO) in 1998, scientists began to focus on the neurotoxicity of AßOs. As an endogenous neurotoxin, the active growth of AßOs can lead to neuronal death, which is believed to occur before plaque formation, suggesting that AßOs are the key factors leading to AD. PANoptosis, a newly proposed concept of cell death that includes known modes of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, is a form of cell death regulated by the PANoptosome complex. Neuronal survival depends on proper mitochondrial function. Under conditions of AßO interference, mitochondrial dysfunction occurs, releasing lethal contents as potential upstream effectors of the PANoptosome. Considering the critical role of neurons in cognitive function and the development of AD as well as the regulatory role of mitochondrial function in neuronal survival, investigation of the potential mechanisms leading to neuronal PANoptosis is crucial. This review describes the disruption of neuronal mitochondrial function by AßOs and elucidates how AßOs may activate neuronal PANoptosis by causing mitochondrial dysfunction during the development of AD, providing guidance for the development of targeted neuronal treatment strategies.

A peer mentoring program for Chinese American dementia caregivers: a pilot randomized controlled trial.

OBJECTIVES: A large gap exists in the development of culturally sensitive interventions to reduce stress related to dementia care among Chinese Americans, one of the fastest growing minority populations in the United States. We developed and pilot tested the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a peer mentoring program for Chinese American dementia caregivers. METHOD: A pilot randomized controlled trial was conducted among 38 Chinese American caregivers in New York City. Four outcome variables-caregiving competence, loneliness, caregiver burden, and depressive symptoms-were measured at baseline and 3-month and 9-month follow-ups. The study protocol and preliminary results are available at clinicltrial.gov [NCT04346745]. RESULTS: The feasibility of the intervention was high, as indicated by an acceptable retention rate, fidelity, and positive feedback from caregivers and mentors. Compared with the control group, the intervention group had greater reductions in scores for loneliness at 3-month follow-up and for caregiver burden and depressive symptoms at 9-month follow-up. We did not find significant differences in caregiving competence between the two groups. CONCLUSION: The results indicated the high feasibility and potential efficacy of empowering existing human resources of experienced caregivers in the same ethnic community to improve the mental health of Chinese caregivers. Further research is needed to test the efficacy in a larger sample of this population.

Cross-Domain Mutual-Assistance Learning Framework for Fully Automated Diagnosis of Primary Tumor in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.

Accurate T-staging of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) holds paramount importance in guiding treatment decisions and prognosticating outcomes for distinct risk groups. Regrettably, the landscape of deep learning-based techniques for T-staging in NPC remains sparse, and existing methodologies often exhibit suboptimal performance due to their neglect of crucial domain-specific knowledge pertinent to primary tumor diagnosis. To address these issues, we propose a new cross-domain mutual-assistance learning framework for fully automated diagnosis of primary tumor using H&N MR images. Specifically, we tackle primary tumor diagnosis task with the convolutional neural network consisting of a 3D cross-domain knowledge perception network (CKP net) for excavated cross-domain-invariant features emphasizing tumor intensity variations and internal tumor heterogeneity, and a multi-domain mutual-information sharing fusion network (M2SF net), comprising a dual-pathway domain-specific representation module and a mutual information fusion module, for intelligently gauging and amalgamating multi-domain, multi-scale T-stage diagnosis-oriented features. The proposed 3D cross-domain mutual-assistance learning framework not only embraces task-specific multi-domain diagnostic knowledge but also automates the entire process of primary tumor diagnosis. We evaluate our model on an internal and an external MR images dataset in a three-fold cross-validation paradigm. Exhaustive experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithms, and obtains promising performance for tumor segmentation and T-staging. These findings underscore its potential for clinical application, offering valuable assistance to clinicians in treatment decision-making and prognostication for various risk groups.

Metabolic Syndrome and Tendon Disease: A Comprehensive Review.

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a multifaceted pathological condition characterized by the atypical accumulation of various metabolic components such as central obesity or excess weight, hyperlipidemia, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), hypertension, and insulin resistance. Recently, MS has been recognized as a notable contributor to heart and circulatory diseases. In addition, with increasing research, the impact of MS on tendon repair and disease has gradually emerged. Recent studies have investigated the relationship between tendon healing and diseases such as diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity, and other metabolic disorders. However, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and various metabolic disorders often coexist and together constitute MS. At present, insulin resistance is considered the major pathological mechanism underlying MS, central obesity is regarded as the predominant factor responsible for it, and dyslipidemia and other metabolic diseases are known as secondary contributors to MS. This review aims to evaluate the current literature regarding the impact of various pathological conditions in MS on tendon recovery and illness, and to present a comprehensive overview of the effects of MS on tendon recovery and diseases, along with the accompanying molecular mechanisms.

Diallyl Trisulfide Acts as a Soil Disinfestation Against the Ilyonectria destructans through Inducing the Burst of Reactive Oxygen Species.

Soil-borne diseases represent an impediment to the sustainable development of agriculture. A soil-borne disease caused by Ilyonectria destructans severely impacts Panax species, and soil disinfestation has proven to be an effective management approach. Here, diallyl trisulfide (DATS), derived from garlic, exhibited pronounced inhibitory effects on the growth of I. destructans in vitro tests and contributed to the alleviation of soil-borne diseases in the field. A comprehensive analysis demonstrated that DATS inhibits the growth of I. destructans by activating detoxifying enzymes, such as GSTs, disrupting the equilibrium of redox reactions. A series of antioxidant amino acids were suppressed by DATS. Particularly noteworthy is the substantial depletion of glutathione by DATS, resulting in the accumulation of ROS, ultimately culminating in the inhibition of I. destructans growth. Briefly, DATS could effectively suppress soil-borne diseases by inhibiting pathogen growth through the activation of ROS, and it holds promise as a potential environmentally friendly soil disinfestation.
