Triunsaturated fatty acids are substrates for the synthesis of the defense hormone jasmonate which plays roles in resistance to numerous fungal pathogens. However, relatively little is known about other potential roles of di-unsaturated and triunsaturated fatty acids in resistance to fungal pathogens - in particular those that can attack plants at the seedling stage. We examined the roles of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in Arabidopsis thaliana during attack by the necrotrophic pathogen, Botrytis cinerea. We found that PUFA-deficient Arabidopsis mutants (fad2-1, fad2-3 and fad3-2 fad7-2 fad8 [fad trip]) displayed an unexpectedly strong resistance to B. cinerea at the cotyledon stage. Preliminary analyses revealed no changes in the expression of defense genes, however cuticle permeability defects were detected in both fad2-1 and fad trip mutants. Analysis of B. cinerea development on the surface of cotyledons revealed arrested hyphal growth on fad2-3 and fad trip mutants and 28% reduction in fungal adhesion on fad2-3 cotyledons. Surface metabolite analysis from the cotyledons of PUFA mutants led to the identification of 7-methylsulfonylheptyl glucosinolate (7MSOHG), which over-accumulated on the plant surface. We linked the appearance of 7MSOHG to defects in cuticle composition and permeability of mutants and show that its appearance correlates with resistance to B. cinerea. Anti-parasitic drugs used in the aquaculture industry are discharged to the sea after treatment of salmon. In this study, the effects of azamethiphos (AZA) in the Salmosan® formulation and deltamethrin (DEL) in the Alpha Max® formulation, have been assessed in Northern shrimp larvae (Pandalus borealis) when administered both separately and in combination. The exposure concentrations were 100 ng/L for AZA and 2 ng/L for DEL, each representing a 1000-fold dilution of the prescribed concentrations for salmon. These two chemicals were combined at these concentrations to give a third treatment (AZA + DEL). When larvae were exposed for two hours on the first, second and third days post hatch (dph), significantly increased mortality and reduced swimming activity were observed for larvae from the DEL and combined AZA + DEL treatments 4 dph, though not in larvae from the AZA treatment. A single pulse exposure, delivered on the first day post hatch, caused similar effects on mortality and swimming activity 4 dph as theval or successful development to stage II in these treatments. Cilofexor In addition, mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotropic factor was downregulated in food limited Control larvae when compared with the daily fed Controls. Results from this study together with reported estimates of dispersion plume concentrations of discharged pesticides indicate that toxic concentrations of deltamethrin could reach shrimp larvae several kilometers from a treated salmon farm. The proliferations of cyanobacteria are increasingly prevalent in many rivers and water bodies due especially to eutrophication. This work aims to study in female medaka fish the toxicity, the transfer and the depuration of the anatoxin-a, a neurotoxin produced by benthic cyanobacterial biofilms. This work will provide answers regarding acute toxicity induced by single gavage by anatoxin-a and to the risks of exposure by ingestion of contaminated fish flesh, considering that data on these aspects remain particularly limited. The oral LD50 and NOAEL of a single dose of (±)-anatoxin-a were determined at 11.50 and 6.67 μg.g-1, respectively. Subsequently, the toxico-kinetics of the (±)-anatoxin-a was observed in the guts, the livers and the muscles of female medaka fish for 10 days. Anatoxin-a was quantified by high-resolution qTOF mass spectrometry coupled upstream to a UHPLC chromatographic chain. The toxin could not be detected in the liver after 12 h, and in the gut and muscle after 3 days. Overall, the medaka fish do not appear to accumulate (±)-anatoxin-a and to largely recover after 24 h following a single sub-acute oral liquid exposure at the NOAEL. V.Lichen planus is a benign inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology that may affect the skin, mucosae, scalp and nails. When the nails are affected, it may lead to permanent destruction with severe functional and psychosocial consequences. Therefore, prompt diagnosis and early treatment are essential, even in mild cases. There are currently no guidelines for the management of nail lichen planus and the published literature on treatment is limited. The aim of this paper is then to provide practical management recommendations for the classical form of nail lichen planus, especially when restricted to the nails. Topical treatment has poor short-term efficacy and may cause long-term side effects. Instead, intralesional and intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide should be considered first line therapies. Oral retinoids are second line choices, and immunosuppressive agents may also be considered. BACKGROUND It is well-established that asthma is common in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). OBJECTIVES We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the prevalence of asthma and respiratory symptoms in individuals with AD, and the association between AD and asthma. METHODS At least two authors independently searched the medical databases PubMed, EMBASE, LILACS and SCOPUS for all English-language studies with data on asthma prevalence among patients with AD or the association between AD and asthma. Pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) and pooled proportions were estimated using random-effects models. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to assess study quality. RESULTS The search yielded 39,503 articles. 213 studies were included in a quantitative analysis. The overall pooled prevalence of asthma was 25.7% (95% CI 23.7-27.7) in AD patients and 8.1% (95% CI 7.0-9.4) among reference individuals. There was a significant association between AD and asthma when compared to reference individuals (OR 3.03, 95% CI 2.64-3.47). LIMITATIONS The definitions of AD and asthma differed across the included studies and varied from self-report to physician-diagnosed. CONCLUSIONS Asthma is a common comorbidity of AD. Physicians should be cognizant about this relationship and address asthma symptoms in their patients.Cilofexor
