Multi-omics association study of hexadecane degradation in haloarchaeal strain Halogranum rubrum RO2-11.

Haloarchaea with the capacity to degrade alkanes is promising to deal with petroleum pollution in hypersaline environments. However, only a limited number of haloarchaeal species are investigated, and their pathway and mechanism for alkane degradation remain unclear. In this study, Halogranum rubrum RO2-11, a haloarchaeal strain, verified the ability to degrade kerosene and hexadecane in 184 g/L NaCl, with 53% and 52% degradation rates after 9 and 4 days, respectively. Genome sequencing and gene annotation indicated that strain RO2-11 possesses a complete potential alkane-degrading pathway, of which alkane hydroxylases may include CYP450, AlmA, and LadA. Transcriptome and metabolome analyses revealed that the upregulation of related genes in TCA cycle, lysine biosynthesis, and acetylation may help improve hexadecane degradation. Additionally, an alternative degrading pathway of hexadecane based on dual-terminal β-oxidation may occur in strain RO2-11. It is likely to be the first report of alkane degradation by the genus Halogranum, which may be helpful for applications of oil-pollution bioremediation under high-salt conditions.

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.

Multi-omics analysis reveals stage-associated differences in gut immunity and microbiota between juvenile and adult common carp (Cyprinus carpio).

In vertebrates, the development of intestinal immunity is closely associated with dynamic changes in the gut microbiota. However, stage-associated differences in intestinal immunity and gut microbial communities remain poorly characterized in teleost fish. In this study, transcriptomic analysis combined with 16S rRNA gene sequencing was employed to characterize intestinal immunity and gut microbial communities in juvenile and adult common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Transcriptomic profiling revealed marked developmental differences in intestinal immune function. Juvenile carp exhibited a predominantly innate immune phenotype, characterized by elevated expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, antimicrobial peptides, and lysozyme-related genes. This immune profile was accompanied by enhanced mucosal barrier function and a relatively pro-inflammatory intestinal environment. In contrast, adult carp displayed increased expression of genes associated with adaptive immunity, suggesting that adult common carp exhibit relatively stronger adaptive immune characteristics than juvenile fish. Gut microbiota analysis demonstrated significant stage-dependent differences in microbial diversity and community composition. Juvenile fish were enriched with bacterial taxa potentially associated with innate immune activation, whereas adult fish harbored distinct microbial communities linked to intestinal homeostasis and barrier maintenance. Furthermore, correlation analyses identified significant associations between specific microbial taxa and innate immune-related gene expression, suggesting a close association between gut microbiota composition and intestinal immune characteristics in juvenile and adult common carp. Collectively, these findings reveal stage-associated differences in intestinal immunity and gut microbial communities between juvenile and adult common carp, thereby providing insights into intestinal immune characteristics at different developmental stages in teleost fish.

Multi-omics and spatial transcriptomics reveal that S100A10 drives CD8+ T-cell exhaustion and immune evasion in hepatocellular carcinoma through cPLA2-5-LOX-mediated arachidonic acid metabolism and ferroptosis.

Immune evasion in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a major biological barrier limiting the efficacy of immunotherapy, yet its molecular basis remains incompletely understood. Increasing evidence indicates that tumor metabolic reprogramming and ferroptosis-related signaling play critical roles in shaping an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME); however, the specific regulatory factors involved remain unclear. This study aims to systematically elucidate the functional role of S100 calcium-binding protein A10 (S100A10) in immune evasion in HCC, with a particular focus on the molecular mechanisms by which S100A10 regulates CD8+ T-cell exhaustion through arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism and ferroptosis, as well as its potential therapeutic implications. To this end, data from The Cancer Genome Atlas Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma (TCGA-LIHC) cohort are integrated to analyze the expression patterns of S100A10, its prognostic value, and its association with the immune microenvironment. S100A10 overexpression and knockout models are established in HCCLM3 and MHCC97L cell lines, and S100A10-mediated metabolic pathway reprogramming is characterized using transcriptomic profiling, untargeted metabolomics, and ferroptosis-related functional assays. In parallel, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics are employed to delineate the cell-type specificity and spatial distribution of S100A10. Furthermore, human CD8+ T-cell co-culture systems and orthotopic mouse HCC models are used to evaluate the impact of S100A10 on immune function and responsiveness to anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) therapy. The results demonstrate that S100A10 is significantly upregulated in HCC and is closely associated with poor prognosis and an immunosuppressive state. Mechanistically, S100A10 activates cytosolic phospholipase A2-arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (cPLA2-5-LOX)-mediated AA oxidative metabolism, leading to the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products and ferroptosis-associated signals, thereby driving CD8+ T-cell exhaustion and promoting immune evasion. Significantly, inhibition of S100A10 reshapes the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and enhances the therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD-1 treatment. Collectively, these findings identify S100A10 as a critical regulator of metabolic-immune coupling in HCC and provide a theoretical basis for combinatorial strategies targeting metabolism and immunotherapy.

Integrative Omics Reveals the Metabolic Patterns During Oocyte Growth.

Well-controlled metabolism is associated with high-quality oocytes and optimal development of a healthy embryo. However, the metabolic framework that controls mammalian oocyte growth remains unknown. In the present study, we comprehensively depict the temporal metabolic dynamics of mouse oocytes during in vivo growth through the integrated analysis of metabolomics and proteomics. Many novel metabolic features are discovered during this process. Of note, glycolysis is enhanced, and oxidative phosphorylation capacity is reduced in the growing oocytes, presenting a Warburg-like metabolic program. For nucleotide biosynthesis, the salvage pathway is markedly activated during oocyte growth, whereas the de novo pathway is evidently suppressed. Fatty acid synthesis and channeling into phosphoinositides are specifically elevated in oocytes accompanying primordial follicle activation; nevertheless, fatty acid oxidation is reduced in these oocytes simultaneously. Our data establish the metabolic landscape during in vivo oocyte growth and serve as a broad resource for probing mammalian oocyte metabolism.

Exploring the shared genetic basis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and obstructive sleep apnea: A multi-omics analysis.

BACKGROUND: Observational studies have suggested an association between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but these findings are often inconsistent due to potential biases from medication use, and varying diagnostic criteria. Genetic analyses can help mitigate these confounding factors, providing additional evidence. METHODS: This study evaluated the genetic correlations between ADHD and OSA using Genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary data, applying linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC) and SUPER GeNetic cOVariance Analyzer (SUPERGNOVA). Cross-trait association and colocalization analysis identify potential pleiotropic loci. Tissue enrichment analysis and gene-level analysis of shared genes between OSA and ADHD was conducted. Additionally, bidirectional Mendelian randomization was used to assess potential causal relationships. RESULTS: We found significant genetic correlations between ADHD and OSA (rg = 0.309, p = 3.252E-27), and identified 8 novel pleiotropic loci through cross-trait association analysis. Tissue enrichment analysis showed that these shared genes were primarily concentrated in brain tissues, particularly in deep gray matter regions, and were associated with immune and inflammatory pathways. Forward Mendelian Randomization analysis showed that ADHD was significantly associated with the risk of OSA (OR 1.070, 95 % CI 1.013-1.130, p = 0.016), and reverse analysis showed that OSA was significantly associated with the risk of ADHD (OR 1.240, 95 % CI 1.106-1.390, p = 2.213E-4). CONCLUSION: The findings of this study show a significant positive genetic correlation between ADHD and OSA and each is a risk factor for the other. Inflammation in specific brain regions may be the underlying mechanism for their comorbidity.

Identifying fate-determining transcription factors with single-cell omics.

Single-cell sequencing enables the systematic discovery of cell fate-determining transcription factors (TFs), or key TFs, that define cellular identity or drive cell state transitions. A wide range of computational methods have been developed for this goal, but they differ substantially in the input data and the biological questions they address. In this article, we systematically review computational approaches for key TF identification and organize them from three perspectives: whether they identify TFs defining cell state identity or driving state transitions, whether transitions are modeled as discrete or continuous processes, and whether TFs act individually or combinatorially. We summarize key features and application scenarios of relevant methods to guide tool selection and discuss emerging trends in this field toward programmable and active control of cell fate.

Carbohydrate analysis prepares to enter the "Omics" era.

In this issue, Houseman and Mrksich describe a carbohydrate array preparation method that can be used to analyze protein-carbohydrate interactions and to characterize the substrate specificity of a carbohydrate-modifying enzyme. Carbohydrate chips were prepared by a novel procedure that allows the covalent attachment of carbohydrate-diene conjugates to a specially engineered monolayer surface. The surface presents a precisely controllable ratio of reactive benzoquinone and inert ethylene glycol groups. Nonspecific adsorption of proteins to the surface is extremely low, and the surface is compatible with popular detection techniques. The immobilization technique was demonstrated to be compatible with recently developed automated solid phase carbohydrate synthesis methods, paving the way for the development of highly complex carbohydrate arrays.

Omics Profiling of Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Reveals Risks of Diabetes Mellitus and Cardiovascular Diseases.

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) constitutes a multisystemic disorder often associated with cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Thus, far, the underlying pathophysiological processes are not fully understood. In total, 142 plasma samples were acquired: 50 from controls (CON), 45 from mild/moderate OSA (M-OSA) patients, and 47 from severe OSA (S-OSA) patients. Proteomic and metabolic signatures significantly differed among S-OSA, M-OSA, and CON samples. A novel plasma biomarker panel including two proteins (ACTR2 and ENO1) and three metabolites (2-aminobicyclo[2 2·1], heptane-2-carboxylic acid, 1-O-[2r-hydroxy-hexadecyl]-sn-glycerol, and 1-pentadecene) was developed to identify S-OSA (AUC: 1.000) and distinguish severe cases from nonsevere cases (AUC: 0.813). An independent cohort was used to validate the model by distinguishing S-OSA samples from M-OSA (AUC: 0.729) and CON (AUC: 0.990) samples. Glycolysis pathway activation was identified as a characteristic of OSA; it may contribute to diabetes mellitus onset in OSA patients. Dyslipidaemia, foamy macrophage formation, platelet activation, and actin cytoskeleton might collectively play a key role in vascular damage in OSA patients, contributing to the development of atherosclerosis. These findings reveal molecular bases for OSA-related cardiometabolic complications and provide new diagnostic biomarkers for OSA and the identification of severe cases.

Live-Cell Monitoring and Omics Analysis of Liquid-Solid Transitions of Biomolecular Condensates.

Biomolecular condensates, or so-called membraneless organelles, transition from liquid into more solid-like states over time, contributing to the development of pathological conditions. The present study proposes a simple method using photoactive yellow protein (PYP) and its specific fluorescent covalent ligands to distinguish between the liquid and solid states of protein condensates in live cells. The method, compatible with fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), correlates the stiffness of specific protein condensates with their accessibility to PYP ligands, enabling quantitative multicolor monitoring of condensate solidification. We applied this technique to 12 phase-separating proteins and their mutants, finding that TDP-43, particularly its A315T mutant linked to familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, most readily forms solid aggregates. Furthermore, this FACS-compatible strategy enabled the isolation of distinct cell populations based on condensate states, allowing for subsequent proteomic and transcriptomic analyses. Our findings demonstrate that condensate solidification is accompanied by the upregulated expression of extracellular matrix proteins, suggesting a previously unrecognized link between solid aggregate formation and extracellular matrix hardening.
