Complete mitochondrial genome of the Characiform fish was characterized in the present study. The whole mitogenome was 17,340 bp in size and the proportion of coding sequences with a total length of 11,448 bp was 66.02%, which encodes 3805 amino acids. The base composition of the genome was 30.92% for A, 23.92% for C, 14.88% for G, and 30.28% for T. All protein-coding genes were started with ATG, CO1 and ATP8 ended by AGG, TAG respectively, whereas CO2, ATP6, ND4 ended by a single T, the other PCGs commonly ended by TAA. The length of 12S and 16S ribosomal RNA was 949 bp and 1675 bp, respectively. The control region (D-loop) ranging from 15,654 bp to 17,340 bp was 1687 bp in size. It showed negative GC skew value (-0.2329) and positive AT skewness (0.0105). Phylogenetic analysis showed that was most closely related to . The complete mitochondrial genome sequence would provide a new insight into taxonomic classification, and help to draw a more complete picture of species diversity within the Characidae.

Mitochondrial transplantation is a significant therapeutic approach for addressing mitochondrial dysfunction in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), yet it is limited by rapid mitochondrial deactivation and low transfer efficiency. Here, high-quality mitochondria microfactories (HQ-Mitofactories) were constructed by anchoring Prussian blue nanoenzymes onto mesenchymal stem cells for effective mitochondrial transplantation to treat paralysis from SCI. Notably, the results demonstrated that HQ-Mitofactories could continuously produce vitality-boosting mitochondria with highly interconnected and elongated network structures under oxidative stress by scavenging excessive ROS.

Large-bodied pelagic sharks are key regulators of oceanic ecosystem stability, but highly impacted by severe overfishing. One such species, the shortfin mako shark (), a globally widespread, highly migratory predator, has undergone dramatic population reductions and is now Endangered (IUCN Red List), with Atlantic Ocean mako sharks in particular assessed by fishery managers as overfished and in need of urgent, improved management attention. Genomic-scale population assessments for this apex predator species have not been previously available to inform management planning; thus, we investigated the population genetics of mako sharks across the Atlantic using a bi-organelle genomics approach.

The athlete's paradox phenomenon involves the accumulation of intramuscular triglycerides (IMTG) in both insulin-resistant and insulin-sensitive endurance athletes. Nevertheless, a complete understanding of this phenomenon is yet to be achieved. Recent research indicates that lactate, a common byproduct of physical activity, may increase the accumulation of IMTG in skeletal muscle.
