RESUMO
Phytopathogenic Fusarium graminearum poses significant threats to crop health and soil quality. Although our laboratory-cultivated Pseudomonas sp. P13 exhibited potential biocontrol capacities, its effectiveness against F. graminearum and underlying antifungal mechanisms are still unclear. In light of this, our study investigated a significant inhibitory effect of P13 on F. graminearum T1, both in vitro and in a soil environment. Conducting genomic, metabolomic, and transcriptomic analyses of P13, we sought to identify evidence supporting its antagonistic effects on T1. The results revealed the potential of P13, a novel Pseudomonas species, to produce active antifungal components, including phenazine-1-carboxylate (PCA), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), and siderophores [pyoverdine (Pvd) and histicorrugatin (Hcs)], as well as the dynamic adaptive changes in the metabolic pathways of P13 related to these active ingredients. During the logarithmic growth stage, T1-exposed P13 strategically upregulated PCA and HCN biosynthesis, along with transient inhibition of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. However, with growth stabilization, upregulation of PCA and HCN synthesis ceased, whereas the TCA cycle was enhanced, increasing siderophores secretion (Pvd and Hcs), suggesting that this mechanism might have caused continuous inhibition of T1. These findings improved our comprehension of the biocontrol mechanisms of P13 and provided the foundation for potential application of Pseudomonas strains in the biocontrol of phytopathogenic F. graminearum. IMPORTANCE: Pseudomonas spp. produces various antifungal substances, making it an effective natural biocontrol agent against pathogenic fungi. However, the inhibitory effects and the associated antagonistic mechanisms of Pseudomonas spp. against Fusarium spp. are unclear. Multi-omics integration analyses of the in vitro antifungal effects of novel Pseudomonas species, P13, against F. graminearum T1 revealed the ability of P13 to produce antifungal components (PCA, HCN, Pvd, and Hcs), strategically upregulate PCA and HCN biosynthesis during logarithmic growth phase, and enhance the TCA cycle during stationary growth phase. These findings improved our understanding of the biocontrol mechanisms of P13 and its potential application against pathogenic fungi.

Background: Central compartment atopic disease (CCAD) is a subtype of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Research focusing on the endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) outcomes of CCAD is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of ESS in CCAD and compared to 2 following subtypes: chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and concomitant polypoid disease in the central compartment (CRSwNP/CC) and CRSwNP not otherwise specified (CRSwNP NOS). Methods: This case-control study enrolled patients with bilateral CRSwNP who underwent ESS and had at least 1 year of follow-up. Patients were classified into CCAD, CRSwNP/CC, and CRSwNP NOS. The demographic data, preoperative disease severity, and surgery outcomes, including CRS control status, endoscopic score, and symptom scores at 1 year postoperatively, were collected. We defined well controlled and partly controlled as appropriate disease control. Results: This study screened 259 patients and enrolled 138 patients with complete medical records and 1-year follow-up (CCAD N = 51, CRSwNP/CC N = 55, CRSwNP NOS N = 32). Among them, appropriate disease control was achieved in 84.3% of patients (43/51) in the CCAD group, 69.1% (38/55) in the CRSwNP/CC group, and 93.7% (30/32) in the CRSwNP NOS group (P = 0.029). Then we performed post-hoc analysis using appropriate disease control and uncontrolled. There was a significant difference between CRSwNP/CC and CRSwNP NOS (P = 0.007), but no significant difference compared CCAD group to CRSwNP/CC group (P = 0.065) and CRSwNP NOS group (P = 0.199). There were significant differences in endoscopic E-score among groups (P < 0.001). In post-hoc analysis, we found that CRSwNP/CC (Median [IQR], 33.32 [42.14]) had a significantly worse E-score than CCAD (8.33 [16.67]) and CRSwNP NOS (4.17 [8.30]). Also, postoperative olfactory visual analog scale (VAS) scores significantly differed among groups (P = 0.043). However, post-hoc analysis showed no difference between any 2 groups. There were no differences in postoperative VAS scores of obstruction (P = 0.159), rhinorrhea (P = 0.398), and headache/facial pain (P = 0.092). Conclusion: Most CCAD patients had good surgical outcomes 1 year after surgery. Meanwhile, the CRSwNP/CC group had the fewest patients under appropriate disease control.
