Background: Cytochrome P450 (CYPs) are heme proteins involved in the metabolism of a variety of endogenous and exogenous substances and play an important role in the carcinogenesis mechanisms of environmental and hereditary factors. The objective of this study was to investigate how polymorphisms of CYPs correlate with lung cancer (LC) susceptibility.
Methods: Six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped in this study. The chi-square test and unconditional logistic regression model were used to evaluate the correlation between SNPs and LC susceptibility. The expressions and survival data of genes in patients with LC were mined using Oncomine and Kaplan-Meier Plotter database.
Results: Four SNPs were found to be significantly associated with the risk of LC development (P < 0.05). The most significant correlation was that the A allele and AA genotype of CYP2D6 rs1065852 were associated with increased risk of LC development (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 1.35, 95% confidence interval [95%CI] = 1.13-1.60, P = 9.04e-4; OR = 1.83, 95%CI = 1.29-2.59, P = 0.001 respectively). Similar association of this variant was also found in the subgroups of male patients, cases in III-IV stages, positive lymph node, squamous cell carcinomas and adenocarcinomas. Whereas rs1065852 was considered as protective factor in females (adjusted OR = 0.33, 95% CI = 0.16-0.70, P = 0.004). In stratified analyses, the association of CYP24A1 rs2762934, CYP24A1 rs6068816, CYP20A1 rs2043449 polymorphism with LC risk appeared stronger in some subgroups. CYP2D6, CYP24A1 and CYP20A1 are overexpressed in some pathological types of LC (P < 0.05), and high levels of CYP2D6 and CYP20A1 indicate poor and good prognosis of LC, respectively.
Conclusion: This study revealed that rs1065852, rs2043449, rs2762s934, and rs6068816 of CYPs were associated with LC susceptibility in the Northwestern Chinese Han population; CYP2D6 and CYP20A1 were overexpressed and correlated with prognosis of LC.

Calcidiol (25(OH)VD) and calcitriol (1α,25(OH)VD) are active vitamin D with high medicinal value, which can maintain calcium and phosphorus balance and treat vitamin D deficiency. Microbial synthesis is an important method to produce high-value-added compounds. It can produce active vitamin D through the hydroxylation reaction of P450, which can reduce the traditional chemical synthesis steps, and greatly improve the production efficiency and economic benefits.

The bagrada bug, Bagrada hilaris (Burmeister), is an emerging agricultural pest in the Americas, threatening agricultural production in the southwestern United States, Mexico and Chile, as well as in the Old World (including Africa, South Asia and, more recently, Mediterranean areas of Europe). Substantive transcriptomic sequence resources for this damaging species would be beneficial towards understanding its capacity for developing insecticide resistance, identifying viruses that may be present throughout its population and identifying genes differentially expressed across life stages that could be exploited for biomolecular pesticide formulations. This study establishes B.

Helotiales, a diverse fungal order within Leotiomycetes (Ascomycota), comprises over 6000 species occupying varied ecological niches, from plant pathogens to saprobes and symbionts. Despite their importance, their genetic adaptations to temperature and environmental conditions are understudied. This study investigates temperature adaptations in infection genes and substrate degradation genes through a comparative genomics analysis of 129 Helotiales species, using the newly sequenced genomes of and .

is an edible and medicinal macrofungus with significant biological activity and broad pharmaceutical prospects that has received increasing attention in recent years. Although it is an important resource for macrofungi, knowledge of it remains limited. In this study, we sequenced, de novo assembled, and annotated the whole genome of using a PacBio Sequel II sequencer.
