Gene transfer by electroporation is an indispensable method for the study of developmental biology, especially for the study using chick embryos. Here we briefly review the principles of the method, and its application to chick embryos. Methods of transient misexpression and long-term misexpression by retrovirus vector or transposon system, and knockdown by small interference RNA are reviewed.

Duck viral hepatitis severely threatens the development of the duck industry, leading to economic losses every year. Using selected Pekin duck populations exhibiting varying resistance towards Duck Hepatitis A Virus type 3 (DHAV-3), screening for genetic variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), associated with disease susceptibility will facilitate the breeding of Pekin ducks with enhanced disease resistance. The biological role of fucosyltransferases, which are a type of glycosyltransferase enzymes, is to catalyze the transfer of fucose to molecules such as oligosaccharides, glycoproteins and glycolipids, which is crucial for maintaining immune function by promoting effective pathogen recognition and modulating immune responses through specific fucosylation patterns.

Predicting the patient's response to anticancer drugs is essential in personalized treatment plans. However, due to significant distribution differences between cell line data and patient data, models trained well on cell line data may perform poorly on patient anticancer drug response predictions. Some existing methods use transfer learning strategies to implement domain feature alignment between cell lines and patient data and leverage knowledge from cell lines to predict patient anticancer drug responses.

Identifying the degradation pathway and the final by-products is essential, as their ecological risks are pertinent to the advancement of this technology and its potential application in practical environmental pollution treatment. Elucidating the reaction mechanisms of the degradation system represents the most effective strategy for controlling this process. This study thoroughly revealed that indirect oxidation predominates throughout the electrochemical system, while direct oxidation serves a significant auxiliary role under the synergistic influence.

Campylobacter is a significant foodborne pathogen causing human campylobacteriosis. The optrA gene, which encodes an ABC-F protein, confers cross-resistance to oxazolidinones and phenicols, and recent studies have identified the emergence of optrA in Campylobacter. However, detailed information of optrA- carrying C.

The response mechanism of microorganisms in partial denitrification (PD) system under antibiotic stress, particularly microbial energy metabolism and electron transfer, remain inadequately understood. This knowledge gap hinders the establishment of ecological links between microbial dynamics and macro-level reactor performance. To address this, moving bed biofilm reactors were employed to investigate the dynamic changes of microbial community and metabolism under sulfadiazine (SDZ) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) stress.
