α-Thujone exhibits an antifungal activity against F. graminearum by inducing oxidative stress, apoptosis, epigenetics alterations and reduced toxin synthesis
2021-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Specific mechanisms contributing to the antifungal activity of α-thujone, one of the main compounds of essential oils in herbs, against Fusarium graminearum, which causes various diseases of cereals, were studied for the first time. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of α-thujone was 3.2 μg μL⁻¹ for F. graminearum. Its toxigenic effect was confirmed by WST-1-based cytotoxicity assay. Due to α-thujone tre...
