Abstract
We evaluated changes in growth, chlorophyll fluorescence and basic physiological and biochemical parameters of the microalgae Thalassiosira weissflogii cells under the influence of the herbicide glyphosate in concentrations 0, 25, 95 and 150μgL-1 . The toxic effect of glyphosate on algae is weakly dependent on the level of cell mineral nutrition. High concentrations of the herbicide do not lead to the death of microalgae but block the process of algae cell division. An increase in the glyphosate concentration in the medium leads to a slowdown or stop of algal growth, a decrease in their final biomass, an increase in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), depolarisation of mitochondrial membranes and metabolic activity of algae. Glyphosate inhibits the photosynthetic activity of cells and inhibits the relative rate of electron transport in the photosynthetic apparatus. Glyphosate at the studied concentrations does not affect the size characteristics of cells and the intracellular content of chlorophyll in T. weissflogii . The studied herbicide or products of its decay retain their toxic properties in the environment for at least 9days. This result shows the need for further in-depth studies to assess the physiological response and possible acclimation changes in the functional state of oxygenic phototrophs in response to the herbicide action. The species specificity of microalgae to the effects of glyphosate in natural conditions is potentially dangerous due to a possible change in the species structure of biocoenoses, in particular, a decrease in the contribution of diatoms.

The Lipid Profile of the Endomyces magnusii Yeast upon the Assimilation of the Substrates of Different Types and upon Calorie Restriction. J Fungi (Basel) 2022; 8:jof8111233. [PMID: 36422054 PMCID: PMC9698397 DOI: 10.3390/jof8111233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 11/16/2022] [Accepted: 11/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The study analyzes the dynamics in the lipid profile of the Endomyces magnusii yeast during the long-lasting cultivation using the substrates of “enzymatic” or “oxidative” type. Moreover, we studied its changes upon calorie restriction (CR) (0.5% glucose) and glucose depletion (0.2% glucose). Di-(DAGs), triacylglycerides (TAGs) and free fatty acids (FFAs) dominate in the storage lipid fractions. The TAG level was high in all the cultures tested and reached 80% of the total lipid amount. While being cultured on 2% substrates, the level of storage lipids decreased at the four-week stage, whereas upon CR their initially low amount doubled. Phosphatidylethanolamines (PE), sterols (St) (up to 62% of total lipids), phosphatidylcholines (PC), and phosphatidic acids (PA) (more than 40% of total lipids) were dominating in the membrane lipids of E magnusii. Upon CR at the late stationary growth stages (3–4 weeks), the total level of membrane lipid was two-fold higher than those on glycerol and 2% glucose. The palmitic acid C16:0 (from 10 to 23%), the palmitoleic acid C16:1 (from 4.3 to 15.9%), the oleic acid C18:1 (from 23.4 to 59.2%), and the linoleic acid C18:2 (from 10.8 to 49.2%) were the dominant fatty acids (FAs) of phospholipids. Upon glucose depletion (0.2% glucose), the total amount of storage and membrane lipids in the cells was comparable to that in the cells both on 2% and 0.5% glucose. High levels of PC and sphingolipids (SL) at the late stationary growth stages and an increased PA level throughout the whole experiment were typical for the membrane lipids composition upon the substrate depletion. There was shown a crucial role of St, PA, and a high share of the unsaturated FAs in the membrane phospholipids upon the adaptation of the E. magnusii yeast to the long-lasting cultivation upon the substrate restriction is shown. The autophagic processes in some fractions of the cell population provide the support of high level of lipid components at the late stages of cultivation upon substrate depletion under the CR conditions. CR is supposed to play the key role in regulating the lipid synthesis and risen resistance to oxidative stress, as well as its possible biotechnological application.

The Regulation of Non-Specific Membrane Permeability Transition in Yeast Mitochondria under Oxidative Stress. MICROBIOLOGY RESEARCH 2021.

Abstract
In this study, the mechanism of non-specific membrane permeability (yPTP) in the Endomyces magnusii yeast mitochondria under oxidative stress due to blocking the key antioxidant enzymes has been investigated. We used monitoring the membrane potential at the cellular (potential-dependent staining) and mitochondrial levels and mitochondria ultra-structural images with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to demonstrate the mitochondrial permeability transition induction due to the pore opening. Analysis of the yPTP opening upon respiring different substrates showed that NAD(P)H completely blocked the development of the yPTP. The yPTP opening was inhibited by 5–20 mM Pi, 5 mM Mg2+, adenine nucleotides (AN), 5 mM GSH, the inhibitor of the Pi transporter (PiC), 100 μM mersalyl, the blockers of the adenine nucleotide transporter (ANT) carboxyatractyloside (CATR), and bongkrekic acid (BA). We concluded that the non-specific membrane permeability pore opens in the E. magnusii mitochondria under oxidative stress, and the ANT and PiC are involved in its formation. The crucial role of the Ca2+ ions in the process has not been confirmed. We showed that the Ca2+ ions affected the yPTP both with and without the Ca2+ ionophore ETH129 application insignificantly. This phenomenon in the E. magnusii yeast unites both mitochondrial unselective channel (ScMUC) features in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria and the classical membrane pore in the mammalian ones (mPTP).

Abstract
The effect of stilbene polyphenols (resveratrol and pinosilvin) and flavonoids (dihydromyricetin, epigallocatechin, and dihydroquercetin) on producing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to cell respiration using the isolated mitochondria of the fungus Dipodascus (Endomyces) magnusii was studied. It was shown that the inhibition of the ROS generation with stilbenes is related to both the oxygen consumption inhibition and their antioxidant properties. The degree of manifestation of polyphenol antioxidant properties depended on the number of hydroxyl groups in a polyphenol molecule. Of the flavonoids tested, dihydromyricetin was most active in reducing the ROS generation, but its inhibitory effect on oxygen consumption by mitochondria was significantly lower as compared to that of the stilbenes. The data obtained show that the mechanism of reducing the ROS generation with polyphenols is associated with both the respiratory inhibition and their antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Microorganisms cope with a wide range of environmental challenges using different mechanisms. Their ability to prosper at extreme ambient pH and high temperatures has been well reported, but the adaptation mechanism often remains unrevealed. In this study, we addressed the dynamics of lipid and sugar profiles upon different cultivation conditions. The results showed that the cells grown at various pH and optimal temperature contained mannitol as the major cytosol sugar alcohol. The elevated temperature of 38 °C led to a two- to three-fold increase in total cytosol sugars with concurrent substitution of mannitol for trehalose. Lipid composition in the cells at optimal temperature changed insignificantly at any pH tested. The increase in the temperature caused some drop in the storage and membrane lipid levels, remarkable changes in their composition, and the degree of unsaturated fatty acids. It was shown that the fatty acid composition of some membrane phospholipids varied considerably at changing pH and temperature values. The data showed a pivotal role and flexibility of the sugar and lipid composition of Y. lipolytica W29 in adaptation to unfavorable environmental conditions.

Ciprofloxacin induces oxidative stress in duckweed (Lemna minor L.): Implications for energy metabolism and antibiotic-uptake ability. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2017; 328:140-149.

Abstract
We investigate the physiological responses and antibiotic-uptake capacity of Lemna minor exposed to ciprofloxacin. Ciprofloxacin (Cipro) induced toxic effects and hormesis in plants by significantly modifying photosynthesis and respiration pathways. A toxic effect was induced by a concentration ≥1.05mg ciprofloxacin l-1 while hormesis occurs at the lowest concentration studied (0.75mg ciprofloxacin l-1). By impairing normal electron flow in the respiratory electron transport chain, ciprofloxacin induces hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production. The ability of plants to cope with H2O2 accumulation using antioxidant systems resulted in stimulation/deleterious effects to photosynthesis by Cipro. Cipro-induced oxidative stress was also associated with the ability of L. minor plants to uptake the antibiotic and, therefore, with plant-uptake capacity. Our results indicate that instead of being a photosystem II binding molecule, Cipro induces oxidative stress by targeting the mitochondrial ETC, which would explain the observed effects of the antibiotic on non-target eukaryotic organisms. The selection of plants species with a high capacity to tolerate oxidative stress may constitute a strategy to be used in Cipro-remediation programs.

Abstract
We investigated the physiological responses of Lemna minor plants exposed to glyphosate. The deleterious effects of this herbicide on photosynthesis, respiration, and pigment concentrations were related to glyphosate-induced oxidative stress through hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) accumulation. By using photosynthetic and respiratory electron transport chain (ETC) inhibitors we located the primary site of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in plants exposed to 500 mg glyphosate l-1. Inhibition of mitochondrial ETC Complex I by rotenone reduced H2O2 concentrations in glyphosate-treated plants. Complex III activity was very sensitive to glyphosate which appears to act much like antimycin A (an inhibitor of mitochondrial ETC Complex III) by shunting electrons from semiquinone to oxygen, with resulting ROS formation. Confocal evaluations for ROS localization showed that ROS are initially produced outside of the chloroplasts upon initial glyphosate exposure. Our results indicate that in addition to interfering with the shikimate pathway, glyphosate can induce oxidative stress in plants through H2O2 formation by targeting the mitochondrial ETC, which would explain its observed effects on non-target organisms.

Could caveolae be acting as warnings of mitochondrial ageing? Mech Ageing Dev 2015; 146-148:81-7.

Abstract
Ageing is a cellular process with many facets, some of which are currently undergoing a paradigm change. It is the case of "mitochondrial theory of ageing", which, interestingly, has been found lately to cross paths with another ageing dysfunctional process - intracellular signalling - in an unexpected point (or place) - caveolae. The latter represent membrane microdomains altered in senescent cells, scaffolded by proteins modified (posttranslational or as expression) with ageing. An important determinant of these alterations is oxidative stress, through increased production of reactive oxygen species that originate at mitochondrial site. Spanning from physical contact points, to shared structural proteins and similar function domains, caveolae and mitochondria might have more in common than originally thought. By reviewing recent data on oxidative stress impact on caveolae and caveolins, as well as possible interactions between caveolae and mitochondria, we propose a hypothesis for senescence-related involvement of caveolins.
