However, there have been few reports of the biosynthesis of BMNPs using endophytic fungi from medicinal plants. The objectives of this study were to isolate endophytic fungi from medicinal plant\n                    <jats:italic>Anemarrhena asphodeloides<\/jats:italic>\n                    to synthesize bimetallic Ag-CuO nanoparticles (Ag-CuO NPs), characterize the biosynthesized Ag-CuO NPs and assess their bioactivity and biosafety. The endophytic fungus ZMS36 capable of biosynthesizing Ag-CuO NPs was isolated from medicinal plant\n                    <jats:italic>A. asphodeloides<\/jats:italic>\n                    and identified as\n                    <jats:italic>Clonostachys rosea<\/jats:italic>\n                    . The Ag-CuO NPs were biosynthesized using endophytic\n                    <jats:italic>C. rosea<\/jats:italic>\n                    ZMS36 and characterized by UV-visible, SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD, and FTIR. The Ag-CuO NPs exhibited good antibacterial activity against\n                    <jats:italic>Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Salmonella typhimurium<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and\n                    <jats:italic>Shigella dysenteriae<\/jats:italic>\n                    . They also significantly inhibited the growth of MRSA and the expression of\n                    <jats:italic>mecA<\/jats:italic>\n                    gene, especially in conjunction with vancomycin, the preferred antibiotic for clinical treatment of MRSA infections. The Ag-CuO NPs showed promising anticancer activity in antiproliferative assays on the tumor cell lines HeLa, PDSF, and A549. Furthermore, the Ag-CuO NPs inhibited the migration of HeLa cells as well as angiogenesis in chicken embryos, helping to inhibit tumor metastasis. Interestingly, the Ag-CuO NPs showed low cytotoxicity, indicating good biocompatibility. This study revealed the potential of endophytic fungi from medicinal plants to synthesize BMNPs and highlighted biosynthetic Ag-CuO NPs as promising novel antibacterial and anticancer nanodrugs for future biomedical applications.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2025.1581486","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,9]],"date-time":"2025-05-09T01:37:47Z","timestamp":1746754667000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Biosynthesis of bimetallic silver\u2013copper oxide nanoparticles using endophytic Clonostachys rosea ZMS36 and their biomedical applications"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Zhijiang","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tianyu","family":"Lv","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuxing","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weitao","family":"Kong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xixian","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siyun","family":"Xie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jiaqi","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Long","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liqing","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jiarong","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhiqi","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xingda","family":"Zeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zujun","family":"Deng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1057","DOI":"10.3390\/ph15091057","article-title":"Zinc oxide nanoparticles as potential delivery carrier: green synthesis by Aspergillus niger endophytic fungus, characterization, and in vitro\/in vivo antibacterial activity","volume":"15","author":"Abdelkader","year":"2022","journal-title":"Pharmaceuticals"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"54","DOI":"10.1186\/s12941-021-00459-2","article-title":"Effect of ZnO nanoparticles on methicillin, vancomycin, linezolid resistance and biofilm formation in Staphylococcus aureus isolates","volume":"20","author":"Abdelraheem","year":"2021","journal-title":"Ann.
