Halorubrum marinum sp. nov., Halorubrum rarum sp. nov., Halorubrum wangae sp. nov., Halorubrum shenae sp. nov., and Halorubrum zhoui sp. nov., halophilic archaea from coastal tidal flats, a saline lake, and a marine solar saltern.

Five novel halophilic archaeal strains, designated DTA46T, DTA98T, HHNYT27T, N11T, and SY-15T, were isolated from diverse saline environments across various regions of China. Amplicon and metagenome analyses revealed that three amplicon reads were affiliated with strains DTA46T, HHNYT27T, and N11T while two MAGs related to strains N11T and SY-15T. The sequence similarities among these five strains and current species of the genus Halorubrum were 93.1%-99.1% and 86.0%-95.9% judged by 16S rRNA and rpoB' genes, respectively. Phylogenomic and comparative genomic analyses revealed their close affiliation with Halorubrum. The average nucleotide identity (ANI), digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), and average amino acid identity (AAI) values between these strains and existing Halorubrum species ranged from 74.9%-93.6%, 22.3%-58.3%, and 68.3%-93.7%, respectively. All are below the recommended thresholds for species delineation, which supports their classification as novel taxa. The growth characteristics of strains DTA46T, DTA98T, HHNYT27T, N11T, and SY-15T were determined as follows: temperature range 20-60 °C (optima: 35, 37-42, 37, 35, and 42 °C), NaCl concentration 1.4-5.5 M (optima: 2.6, 3.1, 3.1, 3.1, and 5.1 M), and pH range 5.5-9.5 (optima: 8.0, 8.0, 7.0, 7.5, and 7.0). Based on the polyphasic characterization integrating phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic, and phylogenomic evidence, strains DTA46T, DTA98T, HHNYT27T, N11T, and SY-15T are proposed to represent five novel species of the genus Halorubrum, for which the names Halorubrum marinum sp. nov., Halorubrum rarum sp. nov., Halorubrum wangae sp. nov., Halorubrum shenae sp. nov., and Halorubrum zhoui sp. nov. are designated, respectively.

Surgery/anesthesia may cause monocytes to promote tumor development.

BACKGROUND: The immune system of patients undergoing major surgery usually has obvious immune responses during the perioperative period, and the patient's immune status would affect the patient's prognosis. In this study single-cell sequencing technology was used to investigate the effect of surgery/anesthesia on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in depth during the perioperative period. METHODS: We performed an in-depth analysis of our previously published data, which included a total of 4 patients were recruited in this study. Their peripheral blood samples were collected pre operation, 0, 24, and 48 h post operation, and then PBMCs were extracted, followed by single cell sequencing. The results of sequencing were analyzed with R packages seurat and scSTAR. Finally, RT-PCR technology was used to verify the expression of key genes in monocyte. RESULTS: The ratio of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and Tregs showed little change, and the function of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells recovered soon. The function of Treg had not been restored 48 h post operation. Non-classical monocyte was impressed after surgery and showed no recovery trend within 48 h. Similar to scRNA-seq, the expression levels of MDM2 and SESN1 in patients with tumor increased significantly after surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Surgery/anesthesia had little effect on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and continued to affect the functional changes of Treg. It had more impact on monocytes, which may cause them to promote tumor development to a certain extent.
