Alternative splicing (AS) is an important post-transcriptional regulation, which can expand the functional diversity of gene products and is a mechanism for eukaryotes to cope with abiotic stress. However, there are few studies on AS events in rainbow trout under heat stress. In this study, RNA-Seq data were used to clarify the effect of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) on the AS events of rainbow trout head kidney under heat stress.

Alkalinity is regarded as one of the primary stressors for aquatic animals in saline-alkaline water. Alternative splicing (AS) can significantly increase the diversity of transcripts and play key roles in stress response; however, the studies on AS under alkalinity stress of crustaceans are still limited. In the present study, we devoted ourselves to the study of AS under acute alkalinity stress at control (50 mg/L) and treatment groups (350 mg/L) by RNA-seq in pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei).

Thus, an understanding of the molecular response to alkalinity stress is critical for advancing the sustainability of culture in pacific white shrimp. In this study, we aimed to explore the response mechanism to acute high-alkaline stress by RNA-seq at low-alkaline (50 mg/L) and high-alkaline (350 mg/L).

Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is a representative species of cold-water fish. Elevated temperatures during summer often result in significant high mortality rates. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are class of small non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role as post-transcriptional regulators in various biological processes.

The post-modification of Na@Co by ion exchange of Na with Cu on the surface of the octahedron afforded a structurally well-defined Cu@Co cluster. The obtained Cu@Co cluster achieved improved visible-light absorption and selective photoreduction of CO to CO due to the Cu-Co synergistic effect.

With global warming and extreme heat, high summer temperatures are the biggest threat to rainbow trout farming. Rainbow trout initiate stress defense mechanisms in response to thermal stimuli, and competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulation of target genes (mRNAs) mediated by non-coding RNAs (microRNAs [miRNAs], long non-coding RNAs) may be the main strategy for responding to thermal stimuli and enhancing adaptation.
