“…A number of studies have focused on the impact of some herbal extracts on the regulation of the expression of certain genes in honey bees in order to reduce the damage caused by N. ceranae . For example, it has been shown that plant extracts or decoction from Andrographis paniculate promote Wnt and JNK pathways by upregulating the expression of certain genes (including armadillo, basket, frizzled and groucho) in intestinal cells [ 57 ]. These results have demonstrated that this Chinese herb can provide protection from N. ceranae infection under laboratory conditions, suggesting that it can be used in apiculture to control N. ceranae .…”

“…The major advantage is their lower toxicity for both bee colonies and the environment, compared to other chemical compounds [ 47 ]. Many investigations have shown that various organic and aqueous natural products do not show any toxicity to honey bees and lead to a decrease in both parasite load and mortality rate caused by N. ceranae infection [ 56 , 57 , 58 ]. Natural compounds, mostly flavonoids and polysaccharides contained in a number of medicinal plants, demonstrate anti-microsporidian activity in honey bees and are applied most often as alcoholic extracts, although some studies dispute the role of the biological activity of flavonoids against N. ceranae infection [ 58 ].…”

“…To analyse the interaction between A. cerana gut bacteria and Nosema, newly emerged germ-free workers were randomly assigned to four different groups (50 bees per group). GDT: germ-free workers were inoculated individually with 2 µl of a syrup-spore suspension containing 1 × 10 5 Nosema spores [18] and supplied with sterile pollen and sterile sugar water; GDC: germ-free workers were inoculated with PBS and supplied with sterile pollen and sterile sugar water; CVT: germ-free workers were inoculated individually with 2 µl syrup-spore suspension containing 1 × 10 5 Nosema spores and colonized with gut homogenates; CVC: germ-free workers were inoculated with PBS and colonized with gut homogenates. The number of dead bees were recorded daily and removed.…”
