De Novo 2.2 Mb 19q13.42-q13.43 Microdeletion Encompassing U2AF2: Support for a Haploinsufficiency Model.

U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 2 (U2AF2) is an essential pre-mRNA splicing factor involved in the early stages of pre-mRNA splicing. To date, multiple individuals have been reported with predominantly heterozygous missense variants presenting intellectual disability, speech and motor delays, seizures, hypotonia, and thin or hypoplastic corpus callosum. Here, we describe a patient with a de novo 2.2 Mb interstitial deletion involving chromosome 19q13.42-q13.43, encompassing U2AF2, presenting with intellectual disability, epilepsy, corpus callosum hypoplasia, dysmorphic features, and congenital heart disease. The patient's clinical features overlap substantially with those reported in individuals harboring heterozygous U2AF2 variants, supporting haploinsufficiency as a plausible disease mechanism. To our knowledge, this represents the first postnatal report of complete U2AF2 gene deletion. In addition, this is the first detailed phenotypic characterization of a distal 19q chromosomal interstitial deletion, further delineating the clinical spectrum associated with this genomic region.

Single-nucleus transcriptomics reveals cell type-specific remodeling and epilepsy-associated microglia.

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most common acquired epilepsy, causing refractory seizures and cognitive deficits. We performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing on hippocampal tissue from mice 3 and 6 weeks following pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus, a robust model of TLE. Epilepsy samples showed reductions in Cck and Lamp5-Lhx6 interneuron subclusters, alongside increases in Cajal-Retzius cells, dentate granule (DG) cell precursors, and a mature DG cell subcluster. Among glia, an astrocyte subcluster and a markedly expanded microglia sublcuster were increased. We term this microglia population epilepsy-associated microglia (EAM). The transcriptomic profile of EAM overlaps with microglia described in models of Alzheimer's disease and traumatic brain injury, including enrichment of Myo1e and Igf1. EAM display amoeboid morphology, can be found in clumps around pyramidal and granule cell body layers, and exhibit enlarged vesicles and mitochondria. Cell-cell interaction analysis predicts DG cells as their primary interaction partners. This dataset defines transcriptomic programs underlying key cellular alterations in TLE, enabling mechanistic dissection of epileptogenesis.

Environmentally relevant concentrations of DCOIT impaired lifespan and healthspan in Caenorhabditis elegans.

DCOIT (4,5-dichloro-2-n-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one) is an antifouling biocide widely used as an alternative to organotin compounds. While previous studies had focused on its effects on energy production, endocrine disruption, and lipid metabolism, its impact on aging and underlying mechanisms remained unclear. Here, we demonstrated that environmentally relevant concentrations of DCOIT (37, 370 and 3700 ng/L) significantly impaired both lifespan and healthspan in Caenorhabditis elegans. RNA-seq and validation assays revealed that DCOIT upregulated comt-4, a key gene in dopamine metabolism, leading to dopamine depletion and subsequent induction of oxidative stress. This redox imbalance critically contributed to accelerated aging phenotypes. Importantly, both genetic (comt-4 RNAi) and pharmacological (opicapone) interventions restored dopamine levels, alleviated oxidative stress, and reversed DCOIT-induced aging deficits. Our study established the comt-4/dopamine/oxidative stress axis as a central mechanism in DCOIT toxicity, suggesting dopamine modulation as a potential countermeasure against environmental toxicant-induced aging.

Signal recognition particle 14 binds to importin α in Plasmodium falciparum.

BACKGROUND: The eukaryotic signal recognition particle (SRP) consists of six proteins and one SRP RNA. This ribonucleoprotein complex assembles inside the nucleus. Nucleocytoplasmic transport is an essential process for the biogenesis of signal recognition particles (SRPs) as well as for the survival of a cell. There are studies on cells that indicate the import receptor is responsible for import of SRP proteins into nucleus, but there is a lack of evidence that SRP proteins directly bind with import receptors. METHODS AND RESULTS: Coding sequences of SRP 14 and importin α were amplified from synthesized cDNA and genomic DNA, respectively, of Plasmodium falciparum cultivated in vitro culture. The amplified products were cloned and expressed in E. coli, followed by purification. A binding study was conducted on glutathione-agarose as well as in a 96-well plate format at different concentrations of SRP 14 with immobilized importin α. CONCLUSION: This is the first report of direct binding between importin α and a eukaryotic signal recognition particle 14 (SRP 14). A cost-effective 96-well plate-based assay has also been developed to study the binding of cargoes of importin α.

Developmental roles of LSD1/KDM1A-like (LDL) proteins in plants.

LYSINE-SPECIFIC DEMETHYLASE 1-like (LDL) proteins are conserved FAD-dependent amine oxidases that serve as pivotal regulators in plants. While animal systems typically rely on a single LSD1/KDM1A enzyme, the Arabidopsis thaliana genome encodes an expanded family of LDL homologues (FLD, LDL1, LDL2, and LDL3), resulting in substantial subfunctionalization and specialized recruitment mechanisms. This review explores the diverse developmental roles of plant LDLs, ranging from flowering time and circadian clock regulation to heterochromatin maintenance and epigenetic regulation. We discuss the redundant roles of FLD, LDL1, and LDL2 in repressing the floral repressor FLC and their nonredundant specialized function within the CCA1/LHY-TOC1 circadian feedback loop. A central focus of our review is the emerging mechanism of transcription-coupled demethylation, in which LDLs associate with the phosphorylated C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II to modify chromatin cotranscriptionally within gene bodies. By integrating findings from Arabidopsis thaliana and crops such as tomato and soybean, we illustrate how the diversified LDL-mediated regulatory toolkit facilitates precise, gene-specific regulation. Ultimately, the LDL family represents a cornerstone of the sophisticated epigenetic strategies that regulate plant phenotypic plasticity in response to developmental and environmental cues.

CAR-T Cell Therapy: Manufacturing Platforms and Clinical Consequences.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has transformed hematological cancer care, yet variability in efficacy, durability, and safety cannot be explained solely by antigen selection or patient factors. We propose that manufacturing platforms are active biological determinants of outcome. Viral vectors, used in all licensed products, provide stable genomic integration and durable expression but are limited by cost, cargo capacity, and centralized production. Nonviral strategies, including transposons, CRISPR knock-ins, and messenger RNA delivery, enable faster, less-expensive manufacturing with larger payloads, while introducing distinct safety and persistence profiles. This review presents a three-layer mechanistic framework that reframes manufacturing as biology: integration biology determines genomic risk and transgene stability; clonal fitness shapes persistence, dominance, and exhaustion; and epigenomic imprinting, influenced by gene transfer method, cytokines, and culture stress, preconfigures functional trajectories. Clinical observations link platform choice to immune recovery, where prolonged B-cell aplasia and delayed T-cell reconstitution contribute to infection-related nonrelapse mortality, and hematopoietic reserve at apheresis emerges as a practical predictor. Finally, manufacturing is positioned as the key to democratizing cell therapy. Decentralized, nonviral production aligned with regulatory standards may enable equitable access and transition CAR-T therapy from innovation to sustainable global care.

In vivo genome-wide CRISPR screens identify FOXR1 as a suppressor of CD8+ T cell antitumor immunity.

T cell dysfunction critically limits the efficacy of T cell-based immunotherapies in solid tumors, yet the intrinsic regulators of T cell dysfunction remain incompletely understood. Through an in vivo genome-wide CRISPR screen in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells, we identified Forkhead Box R1 (FOXR1) as a potent transcriptional suppressor of CD8+ T cell effector functions. Genetic ablation of FOXR1 significantly enhanced cytokine production and cytotoxic capacity in both murine and human CD8+ T cells, whereas its overexpression impaired T cell activation and effector molecule expression. Mechanistically, multiomics integration of RNA-seq, CUT&Tag-seq, and ATAC-seq revealed that FOXR1 binds directly to promoter regions of key effector genes, including IL2, GZMB, and PRF1, and represses their expression. Importantly, FOXR1 deletion in human anti-CD19 CAR T cells improved their efficacy against solid tumors, demonstrating that FOXR1 is a checkpoint of T cell effector function and targeting FOXR1 is a promising strategy to enhance CAR T cell efficacy against solid tumors.

Deciphering CD8+ T cell exhaustion in human cancers through single-cell and spatial transcriptomics.

Exhausted CD8+ T cells (Tex) within the tumor microenvironment (TME) represents a critical barrier limiting anti-tumor immune responses. Tex cells are characterized by upregulated inhibitory immune checkpoint receptors, reduced cytotoxicity, and functional heterogeneity. Their genomic features and regulatory networks remain poorly defined, and only a minority of patients respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), through high-resolution transcriptomic profiling, has revealed diverse Tex subpopulations, identified subpopulation-specific marker genes and regulatory pathways. Spatial transcriptomics has further mapped the spatial distribution of Tex and their interaction networks with immune cells, tumor cells, and stromal cells, elucidating the impact of spatial heterogeneity on Tex functionality. Current studies indicate that the exhausted state of Tex is dynamic and modifiable, with functional differences among subpopulations closely associated with tumor progression and therapeutic response. However, the genomic characteristics, epigenetic regulation, and spatial interaction mechanisms of Tex require further exploration. This review summarizes recent advances in high-resolution omics technologies for precisely dissecting Tex heterogeneity, functional features, and interactions with other cells. It emphasizes the central value of optimizing Tex-targeted tumor immunotherapy strategies, providing theoretical foundations and directional guidance for developing more effective anti-tumor immunotherapies.

Colchicine attenuates cardiac hypertrophy by targeting the macrophage-driven Interleukin-6 suppression.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most prevalent inherited cardiovascular disease, is strongly linked to progressive heart failure and sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, its underlying pathogenic mechanisms remain incompletely understood, and effective therapeutic strategies are still lacking. Here, we established two murine HCM models harboring high SCD risk-associated mutations. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed immune activation and enhanced fibrotic remodeling in the myocardium of these models. Therefore, we hypothesized that colchicine, a widely used anti-inflammatory drug known to reduce cardiovascular events in multiple cardiac disorders, may also represent a promising therapeutic candidate for HCM. As we expected, colchicine treatment attenuated pathological remodeling in our study, as evidenced by reduced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, decreased fibrosis, and downregulation of cardiac stress markers (Anp, Bnp) and fibrotic mediators (Ctgf, Col1a1, Col3a1). In addition, colchicine attenuated pro-inflammatory macrophage populations and suppressed IL-6 expression, thereby contributing to the preservation of cardiac function. These findings provide the first preclinical evidence that colchicine alleviates myocardial inflammation and fibrosis in HCM, underscoring its potential as a novel therapeutic strategy to reduce fibrosis, lower SCD risk, and improve patient outcomes.

Integrated multi-omics analyses identify an RAS-SLC11A2-associated molecular framework linking iron metabolism with PCOS-related cardiometabolic risk.

INTRODUCTION: PCOS is a common endocrine disorder with elevated cardiometabolic risk, yet the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS)-iron metabolism axis in this comorbidity remains unclear. We explored its underlying mechanisms and evaluated the therapeutic potential of gentiopicroside. METHODS: Integrated multi-omics analyses combining transcriptomics, single-cell RNA sequencing, Mendelian randomization, machine learning, molecular docking, and in vitro functional assays were performed to identify shared molecular pathways and therapeutic targets across PCOS, hypertension, NAFLD, and T2DM. RESULTS: SLC11A2 was consistently dysregulated in PCOS transcriptomic datasets, and associated with iron metabolism, inflammatory response and oxidative stress pathways. Genetic analyses validated RAS-related regulation in hypertension susceptibility and revealed shared genetic architecture between PCOS and cardiometabolic traits. Network and single-cell analyses characterized SLC11A2-associated molecular patterns in disease-relevant cell types; machine learning identified disease-classifying molecular signatures. Gentiopicroside alleviated inflammatory and oxidative stress phenotypes, including reduced IL-6 expression and reactive oxygen species accumulation. CONCLUSION: This study defines an RAS-SLC11A2 molecular framework linking iron metabolism dysregulation to PCOS-related cardiometabolic risk, elucidating the mechanisms connecting ovarian dysfunction, inflammation, oxidative stress and hypertension, and supports gentiopicroside as a promising therapeutic candidate.

ER proteostasis failure in HYOU1 deficiency alters B cells, neutrophils, and interferon signalling.

Hypoxia upregulated 1 (HYOU1) is a stress-inducible ER chaperone. We investigated 2 unrelated patients carrying biallelic HYOU1 variants and presenting with primary immunodeficiency. Patient 1, homozygous for p.Pro444His, displayed failure to thrive, hypoglycemia, B cell lymphopenia, and neutropenia. Patient 2, compound heterozygous for p.Arg262Gln and p.Pro757_Glu758insAla, exhibited recurrent infections, enteropathy, and hypogammaglobulinemia. In Patient 1, while HYOU1 transcription was preserved, the protein was severely reduced. Tunicamycin treatment of dermal fibroblasts showed a blunted unfolded protein response and defective induction of ER stress-responsive genes. Immunophenotyping showed near-absence of circulating B cells, and single-cell RNA sequencing of bone marrow identified an arrest at the pro-B cell stage. Neutrophils displayed hypogranulation and dysregulated IFN- and apoptosis-associated transcriptional signatures, unresponsive to G-CSF. HYOU1 deficiency hence results in ER stress-induced proteostasis failure that simultaneously impairs adaptive immunity through B cell developmental arrest and innate immunity through neutrophil dysfunction and IFN pathway imbalance. This work expands the spectrum of HYOU1 deficiency and further identifies ER proteostasis as a central determinant of immune homeostasis.

Tripled-Stranded Antisense Oligonucleotide for Biomarker-Activated Suppression of Essential Genes.

Conditional activation of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) is a promising strategy for selective suppression of cancer cells without affecting normal cells. In this study, we developed a tripled-stranded ASO (tsASO) that is rendered inactive through complexation with two additional oligonucleotides. The key innovation is the use of partial overlap between the parent ASO and the biomarker sequence, combined with toehold-mediated strand displacement, enabling precise conditional activation. The tsASO effectively triggered RNase H-mediated degradation of DYNC1I2 and DARS1 RNAs exclusively in the presence of the ERBB2 sequence. In cell-free systems, the tsASO demonstrated high cleavage efficiency (up to 81%), comparable to the parent ASO efficiency, with minimal background activity in the absence of the biomarker sequence, validating the concept at the molecular level. However, in cells using lipid-based transfection, the tsASO exhibited nonspecific cytotoxicity that did not correlate with biomarker presence or target gene expression. Detailed analysis showed no clear support for known sequence-driven toxicity mechanisms (CpG/TLR9, G-quadruplexes) in the nonimmune cell lines, suggesting that the primary limitation is intracellular delivery rather than the tsASO design. Future work should focus on optimizing delivery platforms to achieve controlled cellular uptake and biomarker-dependent release, unlocking the therapeutic potential of this conditional gene silencing approach.

Transcriptomic insights into exogenous fatty acid-enhanced halotolerance in Zygosaccharomyces rouxii.

BACKGROUND: High salinity restricts microbial growth during brine-based food fermentation. Although exogenous unsaturated fatty acids improve the salt tolerance of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, the associated transcriptional mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the transcriptomic response of Z. rouxii CGMCC 3791 to palmitoleic acid (C16:1) under high salt conditions. RESULTS: Cells were cultured in yeast extract peptone dextrose (YPD) containing 120 g L-1 NaCl, with or without 20 μg mL-1 C16:1. They were analyzed by RNA sequencing. Principal component analysis clearly separated the two treatments. Using q < 0.05 and |log2 fold change| > 1, 23 differentially expressed genes were identified - three upregulated and 20 downregulated. INO1, MLS1, POX1, MEP2, and SOD5 were among the major responsive genes. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses indicated that peroxisome-associated functions, lipid metabolism, oxidative stress responses, nitrogen utilization, and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling were the principal C16:1-responsive processes. CONCLUSION: Exogenous C16:1 elicited a focused transcriptional adjustment rather than broad transcriptome-wide reprogramming in salt-stressed Z. rouxii. The results indicated that peroxisome-linked lipid processes and redox regulation were candidate mechanisms underlying fatty-acid-associated halotolerance and provided targets for improving the robustness of high-salt food fermentation. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.

A First-in-Japanese Phase 1, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Cohort Study of Sefaxersen, an Antisense Oligonucleotide Targeting Complement Factor B, in Healthy Participants.

Increased activity in the complement alternative pathway (AP) plays a key role in diseases such as IgA nephropathy (IgAN). This first-in-Japanese double-blind Phase 1 study investigated the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, and tolerability of sefaxersen (RO7434656), an antisense oligonucleotide targeting complement factor B messenger RNA. Healthy participants were randomized equally into four cohorts: placebo or sefaxersen 20, 40, or 70 mg. The PK, PD, and safety endpoints were monitored throughout the study and during the 90-day follow-up period. All 24 participants completed the study, with no new safety signals or clinically meaningful changes in blood chemistry, electrocardiogram, or vital signs observed. Plasma sefaxersen concentration demonstrated a biphasic PK profile, characterized by an initial rapid decline followed by a slow elimination. Sefaxersen decreased PD markers related to the complement AP selectively, without affecting the classical pathway, in a dose-dependent manner, and the PD effects persisted over 2 to 3 months. Sefaxersen was well tolerated by healthy Japanese participants, with a manageable safety profile. These findings support the inclusion of Japanese patients with IgAN in the global Phase 3 study (IMAGINATION, NCT05797610).

Context matters: coordinated transcriptional regulation and root plasticity under multinutrient conditions.

Plants often encounter simultaneous imbalances in multiple nutrients, but the regulatory logic coordinating their responses remains poorly understood. We aimed to uncover shared transcriptional programs and regulatory nodes underpinning multinutrient adaptation in Arabidopsis thaliana roots. We analyzed publicly available RNA-seq datasets spanning 15 nutrient and beneficial element conditions using differential expression, co-expression network (WGCNA), and gene regulatory network analysis. Selected transcription factors (TFs) were validated via root phenotyping, suberin staining, and ionomic profiling under two-nutrient stress conditions. We identified a core set of 2050 genes responsive to multiple nutrient treatments, enriched for suberin biosynthesis, and structured into modular co-expression clusters. Eight prioritized candidate TFs (ARR10, GBF3, HHO5, NAC32, NF-YA3, NF-YB2, SARD1, and WRKY33) were shown to modulate root system architecture under specific nutrient combinations. WRKY33 and NF-YB2, in particular, regulated nutrient-responsive suberin deposition and ionomic plasticity. These findings reveal suberin remodeling as a shared downstream process in multinutrient responses and suggest that plasticity is not a fixed trait but a modular, polygenic, and context-dependent outcome. Repurposed TFs with pleiotropic functions coordinate structural and physiological traits, providing regulatory entry points for improving nutrient resilience.

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.

Maize ZmMYB59 inhibits post-germinative shoot and root elongation through ZmGA2ox3/10-mediated gibberellin catabolism.

Gibberellin (GA) promotes seed germination, but sustained or excessive GA signaling after germination can lead to aberrant root and shoot elongation. How GA homeostasis is transcriptionally restrained during post-germinative seedling development remains unclear. Using overexpression and gene-edited maize materials, we demonstrate that ZmMYB59 inhibits root and shoot elongation during post-germinative growth. Integrated RNA-Seq and CUT&Tag analyses identified the GA catabolism genes ZmGA2ox3 and ZmGA2ox10 as candidate direct targets of ZmMYB59. Hormone profiling analysis showed elevated bioactive GA1 and GA4 levels in the scutellum and aleurone layer cells of zmmyb59 mutants. Dual-luciferase assays, electrophoretic mobility shift assays, and ChIP-qPCR further confirmed that ZmMYB59 directly binds AC8 cis-elements in the ZmGA2ox3/10 promoters and activates their transcription. The zmga2ox3/10 double mutant, but neither single mutant, exhibited enhanced root and shoot elongation, accompanied by GA4 accumulation. This phenotype was suppressed by exogenous application of the GA biosynthesis inhibitor uniconazole. Transcriptomic and biochemical analyses further revealed enhanced starch degradation, reduced starch content, and increased soluble sugar accumulation in the double mutant. Taken together, these findings reveal that the ZmMYB59-ZmGA2ox3/10 module restrains GA accumulation and starch mobilization after germination, thereby coordinating reserve utilization with post-germinative root and shoot growth in maize.
