Using a model of cycloheximide (CHI)-induced expression of nuclear oncogens, a comparative study of metabolism of the major lipid classes in rat liver nuclei and cells was carried out. A short-term activation of sphingomyelinase which preceded on a time scale the maximal accumulation of c-fos and c-myc transcripts was observed both in the cells and in the nuclei. In contrast with the whole cell, the level of phospholipase C activity in the nuclei did not change under conditions of oncogene activation. It was found that the maximal expression of nuclear oncogens coincided in time with cyclic changes in the content of practically all phospholipids and neutral lipids with simultaneous activation of their synthesis both in the cells and in the nuclei. However, in the nuclei the sphingomyelin metabolism activation was predominant. It is concluded that in the nucleus sphingomyelin and its metabolites may influence oncogene expression via nuclear protein kinase C.

To meet the requirements of the biopharmaceutical industry, improving the yield of recombination therapeutic protein (RTP) from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells is necessary. The human cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter is widely used for RTP expression in CHO cells. To further improve RTP production, we truncated the human CMV intron and further evaluated the effect of four synthetic introns, including ctEF-1α first, EF-1α first, chimeric, and β-globin introns combined with the CMV promoter on recombinant expression levels in transient and stably recombinant CHO cells.

Bulk ATAC-seq assays have been used to map and profile the chromatin accessibility of regulatory elements such as enhancers, promoters, and insulators. This has provided great insight into the regulation of gene expression in many cell types in a variety of organisms. To date, ATAC-seq has most often been used to provide an average evaluation of chromatin accessibility in populations of cells.

In mammalian oocytes, large-scale chromatin organization regulates transcription, nuclear architecture, and maintenance of chromosome stability in preparation for meiosis onset. Pre-ovulatory oocytes with distinct chromatin configurations exhibit profound differences in metabolic and transcriptional profiles that ultimately determine meiotic competence and developmental potential. Here, we developed a deep learning pipeline for the non-invasive prediction of chromatin structure and developmental potential in live mouse oocytes.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 mutant (IDHmt) astrocytoma is considered a T cell-deprived tumor, yet little is known regarding the phenotypes underlying T cell exclusion. Using bulk, single nucleus and spatial RNA and protein profiling, we demonstrate that a distinct spatial organization underlies T cell confinement to the perivascular space (T cell cuff) in IDHmt astrocytoma. T cell cuffs are uniquely characterized by a high abundance of gemistocytic tumor cells (GTC) in the surrounding stroma.

Ditylenchus destructor, commonly known as the potato rot nematode, is a significant plant-parasitic pathogen affecting over 120 plant species globally. Effective control measures for D. destructor are limited, underscoring the need a high-quality reference genome to understand its pathogenic mechanisms.
