Coastal estuaries globally, including the San Francisco Estuary (SFE), are experiencing significant degradation, often resulting in fisheries collapses. The SFE has undergone profound modifications due to population growth, industrialization, urbanization and increasing water exports for human use. These changes have significantly altered the aquatic ecosystem, favouring invasive species and becoming less hospitable to native species such as the longfin smelt ().

Combinatorial signaling by proinflammatory cytokines synergizes to exacerbate toxicity to cells and tissue injury during acute infections. To explore synergism at the gene-regulatory level, we investigated the dynamics of transcription and chromatin signaling in response to dual cytokines by integrating nascent RNA imaging mass spectrometry, RNA sequencing, amplification-independent mRNA quantification, assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq), and transcription factor profiling. Costimulation with interferon-gamma (IFNγ) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) synergistically induced a small subset of genes, including the chemokines , -, and -.
