Abstract:
Cardiac hypertrophy is the underlying cause of heart failure and is characterized by excessive oxidative stress leading to collagen deposition. Therefore, understanding the signalling mechanisms involved in excessive extracellular matrix deposition is necessary to prevent cardiac remodelling and heart failure. In this study, we hypothesized that hesperetin, a flavanone that elicits the activation of Nrf2 signalling and thereby suppresses oxidative stress, mediated pathological cardiac hypertrophy progression. A cardiac hypertrophy model was established with subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol in male Wistar rats. Oxidative stress markers, antioxidant defense status, and its upstream signalling molecules were evaluated to discover the impacts of hesperetin in ameliorating cardiac hypertrophy. Our results implicate that hesperetin pretreatment resulted in the mitigation of oxidative stress by upregulating antioxidant capacity of the heart. This curative effect might be owing to the activation of the master regulator of antioxidant defense system, known as Nrf2. Further, analysis of Nrf2 revealed that hesperetin enhances its nuclear translocation as well as the expression of its downstream targets (GCLC, NQO1, and HO-1) to boost the antioxidative status of the cells. To support this notion, in vitro studies were carried out in isoproterenol-treated H9c2 cells. Immunocytochemical analysis showed augmented nuclear localization of Nrf2 implicating the action of hesperetin at the molecular level to maintain the cellular redox homeostasis. Thus, it is conceivable that hesperetin could be a potential therapeutic candidate that enhances Nrf2 signalling and thereby ameliorates pathological cardiac remodelling.

Abstract:
<p>La asociación entre Hongo formadores de micorrizas arbusculares (HFMA) y las plantas ha permitido la adaptación de éstas a ecosistemas terrestres, presentándose en más del 80% de las plantas. El hospedero suministra carbohidratos al hongo y éste transporta los nutrientes que la planta requiere. El establecimiento de la simbiosis requiere procesos armónicos a nivel espacio-temporal, que dependen de señales específicas, para reconocimiento, colonización e intercambio de nutrientes. Las plantas presentan respuestas de defensa frente a la posible invasión de microorganismos, sin embargo, en la simbiosis éstas son débiles, localizadas y no impiden la colonización del hongo. Estas señales se observan en todas las etapas de la simbiosis, siendo la primera señal enviada por la planta en exudados de la raíz, especialmente en condiciones de bajo fósforo. Posteriormente los HFMA activan la expresión de genes que favorecen cambios a nivel celular para la formación del apresorio, del aparato de pre-penetración y en células de la corteza, del arbúsculo y la membrana periarbuscular, para el intercambio de nutrientes. Un aspecto de interés está relacionado con los mecanismos de atenuación de las respuestas de defensa de la planta. Se han planteado diversas hipótesis para entender este fenómeno y aunque el control de la simbiosis está regulado principalmente por la planta, aún se desconoce si los HFMA generan señales que facilitan el debilitamiento de las respuestas de defensa del hospedero. Este documento está orientado a hacer una revisión de las señales de reconocimiento HFMA - plantas para cada fase de la simbiosis, así como de algunos mecanismos de regulación de las respuestas de defensa de la planta para el establecimiento de la simbiosis.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Recognition Signalling Between Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) and Plants</strong></p><p> </p>The arbuscular mycorrhizal association has been instrumental for plant adaptation to terrestrial ecosystems over the last 400 million years. It is known that more than 80% of plant families form this symbiosis .Thus, nutrient exchange and protection from pathogens are thought to be key elements in the symbiosis. For the establishment of the association, harmonic processes for recognition, colonization and nutrients exchange are required both at temporal and space level. Plants react against microorganisms attack by producing defense responses, however, in the case of AM association, plant responses are weak, localized and do not stop colonization by the fungus. Signals are observed along the whole symbiosis process, being the first one produced by the plant through root exudates as a response for P stress. Then, AMF activate genes involved in plant cellular changes required for arbuscle formation, pre-penetration apparatus and at cortex level, the formation of periarbuscular membrane for the bi-directional nutrient exchange. Interestingly, several hypotheses have been formulated to explain the plant defense attenuation. For example, the activation of defense suppressors, the existence of plants with no defence responses to AMF and the existence of plants that suppress their defense response, among others. It is unknown whether the fungi induce low response levels from the host defense system. This document focuses on the signaling recognition between AMF and plants in each symbiosis phase and on the regulation mechanisms of the plant defense responses for the symbiosis establishment.

Abstract:
Acoustic signalling in orthopterans functions in mate attraction and/or intermale spacing. The pattern of intermale distances should reflect the degree to which signalling functions in territorial defense. Males who are unable to detect, and thus respond to, the signals of rivals should be at greater risk of inadvertently intruding on the territories of rivals and of being intruded upon. We tested, in two field mark-recapture experiments with the sagebrush cricket Cyphoderris strepitans, the hypothesis that acoustic signals are used in intermale spacing, predicting that deafened males are compromised in their ability to repel rivals and should thus be found in closer proximity than control (hearing) males. There was no difference in mating success between deaf and control groups. There was a difference in nearest-neighbor distance between deaf and control animals in one replicate of one experiment and in one night of one replicate of the other experiment. These results suggest that calling has a sporadic effect on spacing behaviour of sagebrush crickets and thus primarily functions in mate attraction. The results are discussed in the context of the mating system of sagebrush crickets and the economics of territory defense.

Abstract:
Polyamines are considered as essential molecules for plant growth and development. They are also implicated in abiotic and biotic stress responses. The roles of polyamines in abiotic stress regulation have been well understood, whereas their roles in response to biotic stress are poorly characterized in plants. However, various recent reports have acknowledged that polyamines and their catabolism generated H2O2 play important roles during biotic stress in plants. Polyamines and polyamines dependent signalling mediate reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging as these molecules accumulate in response to biotic stress. Polyamine catabolism also results in generation of H2O2 which act either by directly killing the pathogens or by acting as signalling molecules that mediate defense responses in plants. The H2O2 also interacts with the plant cell wall components and provides strength to the cell wall after infection and wounding. Polyamine catabolism generated H2O2 also play a role in signalling events post infection, which leads to hypersensitive cell death. They also interact with calcium dependent signalling cascade, phytohormones and secondary metabolites and provide resistance to plants during biotic stress. In this review we discussed the possible roles of polyamines and polyamines catabolism generated H2O2 and metabolites during plant host and pathogen interactions.

Abstract:
Plant defense peptides represent an important class of compounds active against pathogens and insects. These molecules controlling immune barriers can potentially be used as novel tools for plant protection, which mimic natural defense mechanisms against invaders. The constitutive expression in tomato plants of the precursor of the defense peptide systemin was previously demonstrated to increase tolerance against moth larvae and aphids and to hamper the colonization by phytopathogenic fungi, through the expression of a wealth of defense-related genes. In this work we studied the impact of the exogenous supply of systemin to tomato plants on pests to evaluate the use of the peptide as a tool for crop protection in non-transgenic approaches. By combining gene expression studies and bioassays with different pests we demonstrate that the exogenous supply of systemin to tomato plants enhances both direct and indirect defense barriers. Experimental plants, exposed to this peptide by foliar spotting or root uptake through hydroponic culture, impaired larval growth and development of the noctuid moth Spodoptera littoralis, even across generations, reduced the leaf colonization by the fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea and were more attractive towards natural herbivore antagonists. The induction of these defense responses was found to be associated with molecular and biochemical changes under control of the systemin signalling cascade. Our results indicate that the direct delivery of systemin, likely characterized by a null effect on non-target organisms, represents an interesting tool for the sustainable protection of tomato plants.

Plant oxylipins generated by the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway are involved in defense. In the tobacco/Phytophthora parasitica var nicotianae (Ppn) interaction a 9-LOX pathway (NtLOX1) is activated, and transgenic antisense (AS-LOX) plants are more susceptible to Ppn. Here, oxylipin profiling on Ppn-inoculated WT and AS-LOX roots indicated that in WT plants, 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid and divinyl ethers (DVEs) are most prominently induced, and that the phenotype of AS-LOX plants is associated to their absence. A DVE-biosynthetic pathway is proposed involving NtLOX1 and the DVE synthase NtDES1. Both enzymes localized in the cytosol and cooperated to generate DVEs from free fatty acids in vitro. Their transcription was coordinated and precocious in WT (not AS-LOX) Ppn-inoculated roots, and induced by elicitors, jasmonic acid, ethylene but inhibited by salicylic acid. NtLOX1 and NtDES1 constitute a 9-DVE biosynthetic pathway crucial for resistance to pathogens in tobacco

"An investigation into the role of SUMO proteases OVERLY TOLERANT to SALT1 and -2 in salicylic acid mediated defense signalling in Arabidopsis thaliana : toward understanding the role of SUMOylation in SA signalling." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2014. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/67030/.

Full text
Abstract:
Enzymatic, covalent attachment of the Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier (SUMO) protein to a substrate protein, SUMOylation, is a stress inducible post-translational modification conserved throughout eukaryotes. SUMO conjugation to proteins alters protein interactions, regulating signalling pathways in the cell, and modulating response. SUMO proteases process SUMO into its mature form as a prerequisite to conjugation, in addition to providing reversibility to the SUMOylation pathway by cleaving SUMO from substrate proteins. Salicylic acid (SA) is a key hormone in propagating defense activation and signalling against biotrophic pathogens in plants. An investigation into the role of SUMO proteases OVERLY TOLERANT to SALT1 and -2 (OTS1 and -2) in SA regulation was performed using Arabidopsis thaliana mutants and transgenic over expressing lines. OTS1 and -2 were required for the restriction of SA biosynthesis and signalling in unchallenged plants. Further, SA treatment promoted OTS1 degradation and accumulation of SUMO conjugates, suggesting a positive relationship between SUMO conjugation and SA synthesis. Mutants of the SUMO E3 ligase SAP and MIZ1 (SIZ1) possess reduced levels of SUMO conjugates whilst displaying elevated SA content and activated defenses. This apparent contradiction was investigated using single siz1 and triple ots1 ots2 siz1 mutants, which were found to possess comparable SA related phenotypes to the ots1 ots2 double mutant. Finally it was concluded that there is more to the regulation between SA biosynthesis and SUMOylation than the presence or absence of SUMOylated proteins, and further, that promotion of SUMO conjugates by SA may facilitate modulation of other signalling pathways.

Abstract:
Three methods of communication were examined in the Middle Island tusked weta, Motuweta isolata (Orthoptera: Anostostomatidae); defence behaviour, acoustic and chemosensory signalling. Previous studies had been limited to basic autecology and anecdotal evidence. This study was undertaken to understand the behaviours of this species to assist in conservation efforts. Defensive behaviours were elicited through repeated stimulation while aggressive behaviours were acquired through male-male battles. Femoro-abdominal stridulation was induced within both situations. Defensive stridulation functioned as alarm behaviour and was often accompanied by a visual display. Agonistic stridulation was executed by the eventual winner of combat. Aggressive battles were a progression of behavioural units of increasing risk on injury until an individual was determined the winner. Acoustic analysis was preformed on stridulations observed in aggressive and defensive behaviours. Stridulation was a broad band signal covering a range well above 16 kHz and possibly into the ultrasound range (>20 kHz). Two different forms of stridulation were identified; click train sound and hiss sound. High speed frame-by-frame analysis of stridulation and scanning electron micrographs of the abdomen and medial femur deciphered the mechanism and found the interaction of the cuticle to be unique among weta. Strikingly, micrographs also revealed two morphologies of abdominal projections; truncated ridges and columnar pegs. Both these points were not previously observed. Y-maze and partition tests were utilized for evidence of chemosensory signalling, while gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified faecal volatiles in M. iisolata and 4 other weta species in a parallel study. Through partition experiments, evidence exists for a species-specific volatile pheromone and a sex-specific chemo-tactile pheromone. Dimethylsulphide, (CH3)2S, was present in the faeces of all 5 weta species, and may be produced by the individual.

Abstract:
Following pathogen recognition, nitric oxide (NO) is rapidly produced in plants, this small molecule has emerged as a key signal in plant defence responses. S-nitrosylation is the major route of NO signal transduction in plants, a redox-based modification by addition of an NO moiety on cysteine thiol to form an S-nitrosothiol (SNO). S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) regulates cellular levels of S-nitrosylation and displays a key role in regulating the plant defence response. In this context, NO is important to orchestrate both defence gene expression and the hypersensitive response (HR) during attempted microbial infection. However, how the plant immune system recognizes NO and how NO level could elicit plant defence responses are poorly understood. The Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) mutant NO overproducing 1 (nox1) was employed to characterize how NO level elicits defence dynamics. In response to microbial infection, resistance (R) gene-mediated defence and basal resistance were found to be compromised in the nox1 mutant relative to wild type Col-0 plants. Interestingly, nox1 mutant exhibit similar levels of HR and pathogen susceptibility to the GSNOR loss-of-function mutant atgsnor1-3. This phenomenon suggests that NO might regulate defence responses via GSNOR-mediated S-nitrosylation. Therefore, the nox1 atgsnor1-3 double mutant was generated and characterized to clarify this hypothesis. Accelerated HR and increased pathogen susceptibility are shown in the double mutant, which implies that increased NO mediated by nox1 and elevated SNOs resulting from atgsnor1-3, are additive with respect to the plant defence response. To identify genes responsible for NO perception, forward genetic screens were developed to identify Arabidopsis mutants with abnormal NO recognition. NO marker genes for genetic screens were identified from both lab and open source microarray data. Two genes, At3g28740 and At1g76600 were selected and experimentally confirmed to be strongly induced by NO. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants were generated carrying a NO reporter cassette, which consist of a luciferase reporter gene (LUC) driven by the promoter of NO marker gene. This forward genetic approach might be a powerful tool to identify genes integral to NO signal transduction. Three C2H2 zinc finger transcription factors (ZnTFs) ZAT7, ZAT8 and ZAT12 were identified as being rapidly and strongly induced by NO donors, which could be modulators of redox/NO-dependent signalling pathway. T-DNA insertion mutants within these ZnTFs have been identified. Basal resistance against Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato (Pst) DC3000 is compromised in all single knockout lines. Therefore, the full characterisation of defence phenotype of these mutants would be necessary to explore the role of these TFs in the plant defence. Furthermore, zat8 mutant is more sensitive to nitrosative stress when compared to wild type Col-0. This suggests that ZAT8 may be involved in protecting plants against nitrosative stress. However, the molecular mechanisms that underpin this function remain to be determined. In conclusion, NO and SNOs might regulate plant disease resistance via distinct pathways. Our work has also established NO-reporter lines to identify genes responsible for NO perception. In addition, three NO-induced ZnTFs have been identified that participate in regulation of basal resistance, which might unveil aspects of NO signalling related to the regulation of transcription.

Full text
Abstract:
Aposematism is the pairing of two kinds of defensive phenotype: an often repellent secondary defence that typically renders prey unprofitable to predators if they attack them and some evolved signal that indicates the presence of that defence. Aposematic signals often work to modify the behaviours of predators both before and during attacks. Warning coloration, for example, may increase wariness and hence improve the chances that a chemically defended prey is released unharmed after an attack. An aposematic signal may therefore first tend to reduce the probability that a predator commences attack (a primary defence) and then (as a component of secondary defence) reduce the probability that the prey is injured or killed during any subsequent attack. In this chapter we will consider both the primary and the secondary effects of aposematic signals on prey protection. We begin first by describing the common features of aposematic signals and attempting to show the wide use to which aposematic signalling is deployed across animals (and perhaps plants too). We then review the interesting evolutionary issues aposematic signals raise, including their initial evolution and their integration with sexual and other signals. We also discuss important ecological, co-evolutionary, and macroevolutionary consequences of aposematism.
