Traditional methods for studying microbial communities have been limited due to difficulties in culturing and sequencing all microbial species. Recent advances in third-generation sequencing technologies, particularly PacBio's high-fidelity (HiFi) sequencing, have significantly advanced metagenomics by providing accurate long-read sequences. This review explores the role of HiFi sequencing in overcoming the limitations of previous sequencing methods, including high error rates and fragmented assemblies.

State Key Laboratory of Cellular Stress Biology, School of Life Sciences, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361102, China.

Cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant tumor that emerges in the intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts. Doramectin (DOR), a third-generation derivative of avermectins (AVMs), is renowned for its low toxicity and high efficiency. However, no research has hitherto focused on the anti-cholangiocarcinoma effects of these drugs.
