Pacific white shrimp () is one of the most productive and economically important species globally. However, the development and continuous expansion of the farming scale led to an increase in the risk of disease occurrence in shrimp farming. The application of probiotics as an effective method for controlling diseases in aquaculture has been widely considered.

Background: Geographic, demographic, and socioeconomic differences in health outcomes persist despite the global focus on these issues by health organizations. Barriers to accessing care contribute significantly to these health disparities. Among these barriers, those related to travel time-the time required for patients to travel from their residences to health facilities-remain understudied compared with others.

The skeletal muscle is the major muscle tissue in animals, and its production is subject to a complex and strict regulation. The proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts are important factors determining chicken muscle development. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous RNAs that are widely present in various tissues of organisms.

Breast cancer is a multifactorial heterogeneous disease and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women; its diagnosis and treatment require clinical sensitivity and a comprehensive disciplinary research approach. The expression of different receptors on tumor cells not only provides the basis for molecular typing of breast cancer but also has a decisive role in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of breast cancer. To date, immunohistochemistry (IHC), which uses invasive histological sampling, has been extensively used in clinical practice to analyze the status of receptors and to make an accurate diagnosis of breast cancer.

The quality and quantity of animal meat are closely related to the development of skeletal muscle, which, in turn, is determined by myogenic cells, including myoblasts and skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs). Circular RNA, an endogenous RNA derivative formed through specific reverse splicing in mRNA precursors, has the potential to influence muscle development by binding to miRNAs or regulating gene expression involved in muscular growth at the transcriptional level. Previous high-throughput sequencing of circRNA in chicken liver tissue revealed a circular transcript, circIGF2BP3, derived from the gene encoding insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3).

Esophageal cancer (EC) is the sixth cause of cancer-related deaths and still is a significant public health problem globally. Nitrosamines exposure represents a major health concern increasing EC risks. Exploring the mechanisms induced by nitrosamines may contribute to the prevention and early detection of EC.

Ovulation is a complicated physiological process that is regulated by a multitude of different pathways. In comparison to mammalian studies, there are few reports of ovulation in Muscovy ducks, and the molecular mechanism of ovarian development remained unclear. In order to identify candidate genes and metabolites related to Muscovy duck follicular ovulation, the study combined Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) full-length transcriptome and metabolomics to analyze the differences in gene expression and metabolite accumulation in the ovaries between pre-ovulation (PO) and consecutive ovulation (CO) Muscovy ducks.

Unlike mammals, studies on mechanisms that regulate waterfowl ovulation have been rarely reported. To advance our understanding of the ovulation differences in Muscovy duck, we utilized the Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) to generate transcriptome data from 3 groups of female duck ovaries with ovulation differences (i.e.

Article Synopsis
  • Various bioinformatics methods exist to simplify complex gene and protein networks into relevant subnetworks, but there is limited understanding of how they compare in identifying disease-related modules.
  • The 'Disease Module Identification DREAM Challenge' was launched as an open competition to evaluate these methods across various network types, using data from 180 genome-wide association studies to test the predicted modules' relevance to complex traits and diseases.
  • The assessment of 75 different module identification methods identified top-performing algorithms, revealing that most modules correspond to key disease-related pathways and potential therapeutic targets, providing valuable benchmarks and guidelines for studying human disease biology.

Objective To investigate the effect of Pleurotus ferulae polysaccharide (PFP) as an adjuvant on the infertility induced by canine zona pellucida 3 (CZP3) DNA vaccine (pcDNA3-CZP3). Methods Female mice were intramuscularly immunized with pcDNA3-CZP3 alone or co-immunized with pcDNA3-CZP3 and aluminum adjuvant or PFP for three times. CZP3-specific antibody titers of antiserum were determined by ELISA.
