The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Obrium sp. was sequenced, which was the first representation from the longicorn beetle genus Obrium. The whole mitogenome is a typical circular DNA molecule of 15 680 bp, and has similar gene content and gene order to previously reported beetle species. In the sampled subfamilies of Cerambycidae, both Lamiinae and Cerambycinae were recovered with high supports in phylogenetic analysis. And the newly sequenced Obrium sp. was the sister group to Massicus raddei in Lamiinae.

Mitochondrial genomes are a rich source of data for various downstream analyses such as population genetics, phylogeny, and systematics. Today it is possible to assemble rapidly large numbers of mitogenomes, mainly employing next-generation sequencing and third-generation sequencing. However, verification of the correctness of the generated sequences is often lacking, especially for noncoding, length-variable parts.

Dysregulation of genes encoding the homologous to E6AP C-terminus (HECT) E3 ubiquitin ligases has been linked to cancer and structural birth defects. One member of this family, the HECT-domain-containing protein 1 (HECTD1), mediates developmental pathways, including cell signaling, gene expression, and embryogenesis. Through GeneMatcher, we identified 14 unrelated individuals with 15 different variants in HECTD1 (10 missense, 3 frameshift, 1 nonsense, and 1 splicing variant) with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including autism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and epilepsy.

In patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), thrombolytic therapy and revascularization strategies allow complete recanalization of occluded epicardial coronary arteries. However, approximately 35% of patients still experience myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, which contributing to increased AMI mortality. Therefore, an accurate understanding of myocardial I/R injury is important for preventing and treating AMI.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate whether zinc ion (Zn) alleviates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) through the MAM-associated signaling pathway and to explore its impact on ERS and calcium overload.
Methods: H9C2 cells were cultured in a DMEM supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum and 1 % antibiotic solution. A MIRI model was established through simulated ischemia and reoxygenation with Zn treatment in a complete medium.
