Circular RNAs in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons, with most cases lacking a clear genetic basis. Emerging evidence highlights the involvement of non-coding RNAs, particularly circular RNAs (circRNAs), in disease onset and progression. Here, we investigated circRNAs implicated in ALS and related motor neuron diseases (MNDs). Here, we provide a general overview of circular RNA metabolism and cellular functions. We then present our systematic literature review that identified ALS-associated circRNAs, followed by in silico analyses of 15 circular RNA candidates that were selected based on the most compelling data regarding ALS. Our results revealed that several circular RNAs regulate ALS-related genes, such as unfolded protein response, oxidative stress, cell cycle regulation, and apoptosis. Protein-RNA interaction analysis further showed that ALS-related circRNAs can sponge 20 RNA-binding proteins. Additionally, molecular docking analysis demonstrated that ALS-associated FUS variants significantly alter its binding affinity to circular RNAs. RNA-seq data from ALS patients confirmed significant alterations in the expression of host genes of ALS-related circRNAs and hub proteins in ALS-affected CNS tissues. Collectively, our findings identify circRNAs as potential key contributors to ALS pathogenesis.

Recovery of polysaccharides from marc and pomace through sequential extractions assisted by ultrasound, enzymes and acid maceration.

This study evaluated the pilot-scale recovery of polysaccharides from Vitis vinifera pomace/marc using sequential extraction strategies combining high-power ultrasound (UAE), enzymes (EAE), and acid maceration (AAE). Laboratory-scale trials identified optimal conditions for enzyme dosage and liquid/solid ratio (L/S). Pilot-scale trials demonstrated that the extraction sequence and the processing byproducts influenced extraction efficiency, total soluble polysaccharide in the extract (TSP), and polysaccharide composition. Post-maceration at pH 3.2, with/without the maximum enzyme dose after UAE in a L/S of 1.3/1, improved structural polysaccharide extraction from Viura pomace, while Tempranillo marc showed better recovery of pectic families and TSP with UAE + EAE. Separating grape pomace extract (UAE) from the post-maceration stage at pH 3.2 produced two extracts: E1, with higher yield (19.9%), enriched in structural polysaccharides and oligosaccharides, and E2, enriched in high and medium molecular weight pectic polysaccharides (58.03%), a low degree of esterification (17.1%) and more complex rhamnogalacturan structures.

Proteomics in environmental pollution research: Advances, challenges, and future directions.

Environmental proteomics has emerged as a powerful approach for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying pollutant-induced biological effects. Although this field has developed rapidly, the systematic review of recent proteomics applications in environmental pollution research remains limited. This review explored the emerging roles of toxicoproteomics in biomarker discovery and mechanistic elucidation, as well as ecotoxicoproteomics in ecological risk assessment and bioremediation strategies. Here, we review the field, highlighting recent trends such as the integration of proteomics with genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics to provide a comprehensive view of biological responses to environmental stressors. We further discuss the growing application of artificial intelligence in improving proteomics data interpretation and accelerating biomarker discovery. In addition, recent technological advances in environmental proteomics are highlighted, including next-generation tissue microarray proteomics, nanoscale proteomics, single-cell proteomics, and spatial proteomics. Despite its potential, proteomics faces challenges, such as high operational costs, computational complexity in analysis, and technical limitations in low-abundance protein detection. We propose that the convergence of proteomics with artificial intelligence and multi-omics approaches offers promising solutions to these challenges, enhancing the practical application of proteomics in environmental monitoring and risk assessment.

Genetic diversity and recombination of NA-PRRSV field strains in Vietnam: Implications for vaccine efficacy.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) causes severe reproductive losses in pregnant sows and piglets, resulting in substantial economic impact on the swine industry worldwide. However, due to the significant genetic diversity and rapid evolutionary changes of the pathogen, continuous surveillance and detailed genetic analysis of circulating strains are essential. The current study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of the hypervariable (HV) region of non-structural protein 2 (nsp2) among North American PRRSV strains isolated from swine farms in Vietnam. Phylogenetic analysis and multiple sequence alignment were conducted to determine subtype classification and assess genetic variability. A total of 48 field isolates were obtained, of which 12.5% belonged to classical NA-PRRSV, 16.6% to NADC30-like and 70.9% to HP-PRRSV, primarily distributed across sublineages 1.4, 5.1, 8.7 and 8.9. Amino acid comparisons found multiple insertions, deletions and substitutions at various positions within the hypervariable region of nsp2. The study revealed substantial genetic variation in the HV region of nsp2 among NA-PRRSV field strains, largely associated with recombination and immune escape. These findings highlight epidemiological risks to vaccine efficacy and underscore the need for continuous molecular surveillance to support effective PRRSV control in Vietnam.

Multiomic insights into fungal polylactic acid degradation: Metabolic adaptation and hydrolytic mechanisms of Sporobolomyces pararoseus.

Polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable polyester from renewable resources, is a sustainable alternative to petrochemical plastics. However, its environmental degradation is inefficient naturally, requiring specific microbial activities. While bacterial PLA-degrading mechanisms are well documented, fungal degrading systems-particularly their molecular mechanisms-are underexplored.We isolated Sporobolomyces pararoseus ZRQ01 from the gut microbiota of PLA-fed mealworms. This fungal strain noticeably degraded PLA in PLA-containing medium supplemented with 2% glucose. Biodegradation assays revealed 22.8% loss of the PLA film weight after 35 days of incubation, and scanning electron microscopy confirmed extensive surface erosion and pore formation. Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analyses, together with the reference genome of S. pararoseus ZRQ01, revealed that S. pararoseus ZRQ01 upregulates hydrolytic enzymes at both transcript and protein levels to cleave PLA into lactic acid. After lactic acid is transferred into S. pararoseus ZRQ01 cells by monocarboxylate transporters with increased abundance, it is assimilated by pathways of pyruvate metabolism and the TCA cycle with increased protein abundance. Intriguingly, upregulation of genes in autophagy-related and MAPK signaling pathways underscores an adaptive stress response potentially supporting cellular homeostasis and degradation-related gene expression. Our results highlight S. pararoseus ZRQ01's metabolic potential for bioremediation and offer insights into fungal bioplastic degradation pathways.

Targeted sequencing reveals a distinct genetic alteration landscape in oral multiple primary squamous cell carcinomas.

OBJECTIVE: Oral multiple primary cancers (MPCs) are associated with poor clinical outcomes, yet their genomic characteristics remain insufficiently understood. DESIGN: Fifty-four formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples from 30 patients with oral MPCs were analyzed using high-depth targeted sequencing of a customized 14-gene panel derived from prior whole-exome sequencing data. Detected alterations were analyzed after removal of synonymous mutations. RESULTS: Non-silent genomic alterations were identified in 59.3% (32/54) of samples, involving 19 patients. A total of 70 variant loci across 13 genes were detected. AKAP13 was the most frequently mutated gene at both the sample (22.2%, 12/54), with recurrent mutations observed across multiple patients. In contrast, TP53 mutations occurred at a substantially lower frequency (11.1%, 6/54). Marked inter- and intra-patient mutational heterogeneity was observed. CONCLUSIONS: FFPE-based targeted sequencing enabled an initial characterization of genomic alterations in oral MPCs. Recurrent alterations in AKAP13, GLI2, JMJD1C, and DNAH8, together with the relatively low frequency of TP53 alterations, identify candidate genomic features for further investigation and provide a basis for future studies of the molecular basis of oral MPCs.

Sarcomas: Research on Ultrarare Subtypes Gains Ground.

Rare cancers account for almost one fourth of all cancers. Sarcomas belong to the group of cancerous diseases with an incidence of less than 6 cases per 100,000 inhabitants. Over the past decade, activities were launched worldwide to elucidate the peculiarities of many of the more than 100 sarcoma subtypes described in the World Health Organization handbook. The major contributor to exact diagnosis is molecular pathology. The subgroup of ultrarare sarcomas (URS) poses a significant problem as each URS type has its own morphology, biology, natural history, and prognosis. In 2020, 35 international sarcoma centers agreed to standards of evaluating URS. The threshold was set to an incidence of less than 1 case per 1,000,000 inhabitants, and 77 URS subtypes were defined. Also quality criteria for centers to be selected for retrieving data to registries were consented. This issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention contains the first article to validate these principles of URS using the data from a nationwide cancer database. The authors from Taiwan also pointed out limitations of the approach. Combination with the national death database allowed to calculate overall survival (OS) and identified age as a significant factor for OS per URS type. These new data might foster future research on diagnosis and treatment of URS. See related article by Lee et al., p. 1654.

Identification of aquaporin (AQP) genes in the noble scallop Chlamys nobilis and characterization of their expression under low-temperature stress.

Aquaporins (AQPs) are transmembrane channel proteins essential for water homeostasis and cellular stress responses. In marine bivalves, their roles in cold tolerance remain poorly understood despite frequent winter mortality events in aquaculture. Here, we identified nine AQP genes in the genome of the economically important noble scallop Chlamys nobilis. Phylogenetic analysis revealed strong conservation with other bivalve AQPs, and structural features, including conserved NPA motifs and ar/R selectivity filters, support their canonical water/glycerol transport functions. Tissue-specific expression profiling showed predominant enrichment in osmoregulatory tissues (gills, intestine) and gonads. Under both chronic and acute low-temperature stress from 23 °C to 9 °C, most CnAQP genes exhibited transient upregulation followed by suppression. Notably, CnAQP4 displayed sustained upregulation, implicating it as a key mediator of long-term cold adaptation. Promoter analysis further revealed abundant cis-elements linked to growth and development as well as immune regulation. Our findings provide the first comprehensive characterization of the AQP family in C. nobilis, highlighting its critical role in maintaining cellular integrity during cold stress and offering molecular targets for selective breeding of cold-tolerant scallop strains.

A Multi-omics Regulated Cell Death Framework Defines Immune Phenotypes and Guides Precision Therapy in Colorectal Cancer.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is molecularly and immunologically heterogeneous, contributing to variable treatment response. Because regulated cell death (RCD) intersects with tumor metabolism, immune regulation, and therapeutic susceptibility, we built an RCD-centered framework for CRC stratification. Multi-cohort transcriptomic data were used to infer RCD subtypes with non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) and non-negative least squares (NNLS). Genomic, bulk RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq, and spatial transcriptomic datasets were integrated to characterize subtype-associated biology. Machine-learning models were developed for immunotherapy response and survival-risk estimation. Candidate compounds were screened by GDSC2-based drug-sensitivity modeling and molecular docking, and FSTL3 was functionally assessed in vitro. The framework separated CRC samples into two RCD-related phenotypes resembling immune-hot and immune-cold states. RCD1 showed immune activation and higher mutational burden, whereas RCD2 showed immune-suppressed features, intratumoral heterogeneity, and aggressive biology. RCD-associated signatures showed potential for predicting immunotherapy response and survival risk. Dasatinib was prioritized for immune-cold, high-risk tumors, with preliminary evidence supporting its activity in CRC cells, while functional assays suggested a role for FSTL3 in growth, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and apoptosis regulation. These findings suggest that RCD-based multi-omics analysis may refine CRC stratification and help generate therapeutic hypotheses.

Free polyphenols and multi-omics traits underlying antioxidant variation across Paeonia lactiflora leaf cultivars.

Leaves of Paeonia lactiflora are underutilized by-products with potential as natural antioxidant sources. In this study, 18 cultivars were evaluated for phytochemical composition and in vitro antioxidant capacity. Total phenolic content correlated strongly with DPPH and ABTS activities, and the comprehensive antioxidant index identified 'Coral Charm' and 'Hangshao' as representative high- and low-antioxidant cultivars, respectively. Untargeted metabolomics detected 2677 metabolites and identified 908 differential metabolites between the two cultivars. Targeted phenolic profiling quantified 27 compounds, among which 11 differed significantly between the two cultivars. Catechin and epicatechin were enriched in 'Coral Charm', with contents of 6.62 and 0.397 ng/mg, respectively, compared with 0.012 and 0.002 ng/mg in 'Hangshao'. (+)-Dihydroquercetin was also more abundant in 'Coral Charm', while caffeic acid showed an upward trend. Proteomic analysis identified 423 differentially expressed proteins, mainly associated with secondary metabolite biosynthesis, redox homeostasis, and central carbon metabolism. Integrated analysis identified pyruvate metabolism as the only pathway significantly enriched in both metabolomic and proteomic datasets. Molecular docking predicted favorable binding between representative phenolics and selected proteins. These findings link cultivar-dependent antioxidant variation in peony leaves with free-phenolic accumulation and pathway-level metabolic differences, supporting the selection and utilization of antioxidant-rich peony leaf resources.

Engineering bubble structures as Cas12a activators for highly sensitive monitoring of WRN helicase function.

The Werner syndrome helicase (WRN) is a critical synthetic lethal target in microsatellite instability cancers, essential for resolving complex genomic structures like replication bubbles and R-loops. However, strategies to simultaneously discriminate WRN activity on DNA versus DNA-RNA substrates in living cells are lacking. Here, we developed a structure-specific CRISPR/Cas12a biosensing strategy to visualize WRN functional activity by engineering bubble-structure probes. These probes were rationally designed to structurally mimic DNA replication bubbles and R-loop associated DNA-RNA hybrids. Upon specific unwinding by WRN, the probes release a sequestered activator strand that triggers Cas12a trans-cleavage, effectively converting the unwinding event into an amplified fluorescent signal. This assay achieves low picomolar sensitivity (LODs: 5.6-6.0 pM) and exceptional selectivity against homologous RecQ helicases. Uniquely, this strategy enables the parallel quantification of WRN activity on both substrate types, providing insights into distinct WRN-mediated pathways for resolving genomic stress. We further demonstrated the strategy's utility by visualizing endogenous WRN dynamics in living cells and profiling the efficacy of small-molecule inhibitors. This work offers a powerful molecular toolkit for dissecting WRN biology and facilitating high-throughput drug screening in targeted cancer therapy.

TWIST2-dependent transcriptional activation of TPI1 mediates TGF-β1-driven fibroblast activation in pulmonary fibrosis.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal interstitial lung disease characterized by aberrant profibrotic signaling and excessive extracellular matrix deposition, accompanied by fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition. Despite extensive investigation, the molecular mechanisms underlying IPF pathogenesis remain incompletely understood. Here, we investigated the role of triosephosphate isomerase 1 (TPI1) in IPF progression and its regulation by transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling. Loss-of-function analyses identified TPI1 as a downstream effector of TGF-β1, as its knockdown markedly suppressed fibrotic marker expression, fibroblast proliferation, and migration. Mechanistically, TWIST2 was shown to function as a direct transcriptional regulator of TPI1, binding to its promoter and promoting transcriptional activation. Rescue experiments further confirmed that the TWIST2-TPI1 axis is central to the progression of pulmonary fibrosis. Notably, knockdown of either TPI1 or TWIST2 effectively attenuated TGF-β1-induced fibrotic phenotypes. Collectively, these findings define the TGF-β1/TWIST2/TPI1 signaling axis as an important regulator of pathogenic fibroblast behavior and pro-fibrotic responses through transcriptional control of TPI1, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for IPF.

Comparative analysis of histological and transcriptomic characteristics in caudal muscles of nile crocodiles (Crocodylus niloticus), siamese crocodiles (Crocodylus siamensis), and their hybrids.

Crocodylus niloticus and Crocodylus siamensis are high-value aquaculture species. C. niloticus is large-bodied but less abundant, while C. siamensis grows fast but is small-sized. Their hybrids combine parental advantages, yet relevant research is scarce. This study compared the histological and transcriptomic characteristics of the caudal muscle across the three taxa. HE staining indicated that C. niloticus had significantly larger myofiber diameters (p < 0.05); C. siamensis had the smallest, and the myofiber density of hybrids was much closer to that of C. siamensis. Masson's trichrome staining indicated that C. niloticus had the thickest collagen fibers (p < 0.05), C. siamensis the thinnest, and hybrids exhibited highly similar histological traits to C. siamensis. C. niloticus had higher LDH and SDH activities in caudal muscles, whereas the hybrid crocodile indicated the highest CK activity. Transcriptomic analysis identified numerous differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which were enriched in growth, muscle metabolism, and energy allocation pathways via GO/KEGG annotations. PPI analysis screened 24 hub genes related to energy metabolism. This study systematically reveals caudal muscle differences, providing insights into growth-related molecular mechanisms and theoretical support for crocodile artificial breeding.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the CREB/ATF family and its potential role in melanogenesis in the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum).

Ruditapes philippinarum is an economically important bivalve species in China, and shell color is a trait of ecological and commercial significance. Melanin is a key determinant of shell color, and members of the CREB/ATF family have been reported to participate in melanogenesis in other organisms. In this study, members of the CREB/ATF family were systematically identified at the whole-genome level based on genomic and transcriptomic datasets, followed by analyses of their phylogenetic relationships, gene structures, and expression patterns. A total of six CREB/ATF family members were identified and classified into five subfamilies. Expression profiling and RT-qPCR validation revealed that most CREB/ATF genes were highly expressed in the mantle and displayed clear differences among shell-color phenotypes. Except for RpATF4 and RpCREBZF, most members exhibited relatively high expression levels in dark-colored shell strains, particularly in black and zebra-striped clams. Moreover, most genes showed low expression during early embryonic and larval stages but increased expression at the single-siphon spat and juvenile stages. These results suggest that the CREB/ATF family may be involved in melanin-associated shell-color regulation in R. philippinarum, providing important candidate genes and a theoretical basis for further elucidating the molecular mechanisms of shell-color formation in mollusks.

A translational framework for early-phase inner-ear gene therapy: clinical trial design, regulatory strategy, and ethical considerations.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Hereditary hearing loss has historically been approached as a diagnostic category rather than a therapeutically modifiable disease. Recent advances in molecular genetics, cochlear gene delivery, and first-in-human clinical trials are changing that. This review summarizes contemporary progress in the genetics of hearing loss, with emphasis on emerging gene-based therapies, clinical trial design, regulatory and ethical considerations, and practical implications for otolaryngologists as biologic treatment enters clinical practice. RECENT FINDINGS: Early clinical trials targeting OTOF -related DFNB9 deafness have demonstrated satisfactory safety profiles and meaningful auditory recovery, establishing the first proof-of-concept for cochlear gene therapy in humans, culminating in the April 2026 FDA approval of Otarmeni. Genetic diagnoses are increasingly informing prognosis, cochlear implant counseling, and therapeutic candidacy. Preclinical research continues to expand toward recessive, dominant, and syndromic hearing loss using gene replacement, antisense, RNA interference, and genome-editing strategies. Substantial challenges remain, including heterogeneous outcome measures, uncertain long-term efficacy, regulatory complexity, and inequitable global access. SUMMARY: The genetics of hearing loss is transitioning from a diagnostic modality to an interventional one. Widespread clinical impact will require advances in vector engineering, equitable implementation, multidisciplinary counseling, and integration with established rehabilitation pathways. For otolaryngologists, genetic literacy is becoming essential to contemporary hearing care.

Endocrine-disrupting chemical-induced gene networks confer coronary heart disease risk revealed by causal inference and single-cell analyses.

BACKGROUND: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are linked to coronary heart disease (CHD), but underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to identify EDC-related genes and evaluate their causal roles in CHD. METHODS: We curated EDC-related genes from a compound-gene interaction database and integrated them with CHD genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics and tissue-specific expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) and Bayesian colocalization were applied to infer causality. Functional enrichment, single-cell RNA sequencing of human coronary arteries, and EDC-gene networks were further analyzed. RESULTS: After FDR correction, 39 genes were significantly associated with CHD risk via MR. Four genes-ZNF827, FCHO1, IPO9 (protective), and RPL13 (risk-increasing)-showed strong colocalization (PPH4 > 0.9). Pathway and single-cell analyses of coronary artery tissue indicated that vascular and immune pathways mediate these effects. An interaction network highlighted associations between specific EDCs and candidate genes implicated in CHD susceptibility. CONCLUSION: This integrative genomic study provides evidence that EDCs influence CHD susceptibility through distinct gene networks, revealing potential mechanisms and molecular targets for prevention and therapy.

Revealing potential biomarkers and metabolic mechanisms of ovarian aging in hens during late laying period based on machine learning and metabolomics.

Ovarian function decline during the late laying period represents a major bottleneck for the economic efficiency of the global poultry industry. However, the underlying metabolic mechanisms and reliable early-warning biomarkers for ovarian aging remain poorly understood. In this study, we performed the first untargeted LC-MS/MS metabolomics analysis of ovarian tissues from Taihe silky fowls at peak laying (30 weeks) and late laying (50 weeks) stages, and employed an ensemble machine learning strategy integrating LASSO, random forest, and support vector machine (SVM) algorithms to identify high-confidence core biomarkers of ovarian aging. Gene expression analysis was further conducted to validate the potential molecular mechanisms. Our results showed that the metabolic profiles of ovarian tissues differed significantly between the two groups. A total of 6 core biomarkers were identified, 4 of which were long-chain acylcarnitines. Mechanistic analysis revealed that downregulation of key genes in the carnitine shuttle system led to impaired mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation, which in turn triggered excessive oxidative stress and compromised ovarian endocrine function. In conclusion, this study identifies long-chain acylcarnitines as potential metabolic biomarkers for ovarian aging in Taihe silky fowls. These findings provide novel insights into the metabolic basis of poultry ovarian aging and lay a theoretical foundation for the precise regulation of reproductive performance in indigenous poultry breeds.

Comparative genomics and full-length transcriptome profiling of wing morphs in Tetrix grossus (Orthoptera: Tetrigidae).

Wing polymorphism represents a paradigmatic dispersal-reproduction trade-off, yet its molecular basis remains uncharacterised in the phylogenetically distant pygmy grasshoppers (Tetrigidae). Here we integrate comparative genomics across ten orthopteran species with full-length transcriptomics of long-winged (FL) and short-winged (FS) Tetrix grossus. OrthoFinder recovered 118 orthogroups specific to T. grossus. Against a backdrop of pronounced gene-family contraction (36 expansions versus 222 contractions; net -186, mirrored at the ancestral Tetrix node, +37/-140), we identified an ancestral, Tetrix-specific expansion of hormone-regulation (12 genes; fold enrichment 7.93) and lipid/carbohydrate-metabolic families organised into syntenic clusters, alongside 513 positively selected genes enriched for integrin-mediated cell adhesion (6 genes), a process relevant to epithelial and appendage morphogenesis. Full-length transcriptomics of one long-winged (FL) and one short-winged (FS) adult female detected 7530 (FL) and 7515 (FS) expressed genes, with 794 FL- and 776 FS-restricted transcriptome-derived SNP-associated genes. The FL morph was enriched for an EGFR/Ras-Rho developmental-patterning axis and neuromuscular flight genes, whereas the FS morph was enriched for insulin/peptide-hormone response and growth-regulatory loci. Overall, we present genomic resources and testable hypotheses concerning the evolution and regulation of wing morphs in Tetrigidae rather than a validated genetic architecture of wing-morph determination.
