fumosorinone, a novel ptp1b inhibitor, activates insulin signaling in insulin-resistance hepg2 cells and shows anti-diabetic effect in diabetic kkay mice.insulin resistance is a characteristic feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm) and is characterized by defects in insulin signaling. protein tyrosine phosphatase 1b (ptp1b) is a key negative regulator of the insulin signaling pathways, and its increased activity and expression are implicated in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. therefore, the inhibition of ptp1b is anticipated to become a potential therapeutic strategy to treat t2dm. fumosorinone (fu), a new natural product isolated fro ...201525796170
harvesting of chlorella sorokiniana by co-culture with the filamentous fungus isaria fumosorosea: a potential sustainable feedstock for hydrothermal gasification.despite recent advances in down-stream processing, production of microalgae remains substantially limited because of economical reasons. harvesting and dewatering are the most energy-intensive processing steps in their production and contribute 20-30% of total operational cost. bio-flocculation of microalgae by co-cultivation with filamentous fungi relies on the development of large structures that facilitate cost effective harvesting. a yet unknown filamentous fungus was isolated as a contamina ...201525795450

enhancing the thermotolerance of entomopathogenic isaria fumosorosea sfp-198 conidial powder by controlling the moisture content using drying and adjuvants.entomopathogenic fungi are promising pest-control agents but their industrial applicability is limited by their thermosusceptibility. with an aim to increase the thermotolerance of isaria fumosorosea sfp-198, moisture absorbents were added to dried conidial powder, and the relationship between its water potential and thermotolerance was investigated. mycotized rice grains were dried at 10℃, 20℃, 30℃, and 40℃ and the drying effect of each temperature for 24, 48, 96, and 140 hr was determined. dry ...201424808736
extracellular lipase of an entomopathogenic fungus effecting larvae of a scale insect.lipases play an important role in the infection process of entomopathogenic fungi by hydrolyzing the ester bonds of lipoproteins, fats and waxes present on the insect surface and in the body. here we report the purification and characterization of an extracellular lipase from isaria fumosorosea. the enzyme was purified (138.46-fold) in three steps using (nh4 )2 so4 precipitation followed by deae-cellulose and sephadex g-100 column chromatography. the molecular weight of purified enzyme was deter ...201424677050
enhanced fungicide resistance in isaria fumosorosea following ionizing radiation-induced mutagenesis.the application of entomopathogenic fungi such as isaria fumosorosea to combat insect pests on plants is complicated by their sensitivity to commonly used fungicides. in this study, i. fumosorosea mutants with enhanced resistance to the fungicide benomyl were induced by irradiation using either ion beams or gamma rays, or a combination of the two. when grown on agar containing benomyl, mycelial growth was observed for five of the six mutant isolates at benomyl concentrations that were more than ...201324164561
oxygen-rich culture conditions enhance the conidial infectivity and the quality of two strains of isaria fumosorosea for potentially improved biocontrol processes.in addition to high production levels of conidia, the success of entomopathogenic fungi as biological control agents depends both on their prevalence under the environmental conditions found in open fields (resistance to stress) and on the capacity of these conidia to infect pests. this study compares conidium production, infectivity and resistance to thermal and osmotic stress in two strains of isaria fumosorosea (arsef 3302 and cnrcb1) grown either under a normal atmosphere (21% o2) or using e ...201423847155
antioxidant enzyme influences germination, stress tolerance, and virulence of isaria fumosorosea.antioxidizing enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidae) are important enzymatic systems used to degrade hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen, thereby lowering intracellular hydrogen peroxide levels. entomopathogenic fungi display increased activities of antioxidizing enzymes during growth and germination, which is necessary to counteract the hyperoxidant state produced by oxidative metabolism. we studied the influence of different carbon sources on antioxidizing enzy ...201323756951
an oil-based formulation of isaria fumosorosea blastospores for management of greenhouse whitefly trialeurodes vaporariorum (homoptera: aleyrodidae).to date, emphasis has been placed on studying the virulence of isaria fumosorosea conidia rather than the virulence of their blastospores. in the present study, a comparison was made of the efficacy of blastospores of i. fumosorosea (sfp-198) versus conidia against greenhouse whitefly (gwf) trialeurodes vaporarioum nymphs and thermotolerance at 50 °c. to improve thermotolerance and potency, the blastospores were suspended in corn oil with a wetting and an insect-filming agent.201323536463

liquid-culture production of blastospores of the bioinsecticidal fungus paecilomyces fumosoroseus using portable fermentation equipment.the production of fungal spores using on-site, non-sterile, portable fermentation equipment is technically constrained. very little information is available on the production requirements, such as medium concentration, inoculum stabilization, required fermentation times, and maintenance of axenic growth. in this study, we developed a two-part, liquid concentrate of the production medium that remains stable and soluble at room temperature. we also examined inoculum stability and showed that freez ...200415071762
effect of serial transfer of three strains of paecilomyces fumosoroseus on growth in vitro, virulence, and host specificity.serial passage of entomopathogenic hyphomycetes has been shown to alter virulence and host specificity. we evaluated virulence, host specificity, biomass production, conidiation, conidial germination, and a genetic fingerprint of 3 strains of paecilomyces fumosoroseus after passage in vitro or in vivo in diuraphis noxia or plutella xylostella. strain 4461 did not change in virulence toward d. noxia or p. xylostella after 30 passages in vitro nor after 15 passages in d. noxia. however, it lost vi ...200414992859
light-regulated asexual reproduction in paecilomyces fumosoroseus.the entomopathogenic fungus paecilomyces fumosoroseus has been successfully used in the control of several insect pests. asexually produced spores (conidia) are the means for dispersal and transmission of the entomopathogen; upon contact with the insect cuticle they germinate and penetrate the host. in model fungal systems it has been found that phototropism, resetting of the circadian rhythm, the induction of carotenogenesis and the development of reproductive structures are controlled by blue ...200414766909
