Abstract
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are indispensable components of the innate immune system, which recognise conserved pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and induce a series of defensive immune responses to protect the host. Biosynthesis, localisation and activation of TLRs are dependent on TLR accessory proteins. In this study, we identified the accessory protein, UNC93B1, from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) whole-genome shotgun (WGS) contigs aided by the conserved gene synteny of genes flanking UNC93B1 in fish, birds and mammals. Phylogenetic analysis showed that salmon UNC93B1 grouped with other vertebrate UNC93B1 molecules, and had highest amino acid identity and similarity to zebrafish UNC93B1. The salmon UNC93B1 gene organisation was also similar in structure to mammalian UNC93B1. Our gene expression studies revealed that salmon UNC93B1 was more highly expressed in spleen, liver and gill tissues but was expressed at a lower level in head kidney tissue in post-smolts relative to parr. Moreover, salmon UNC93B1 mRNA transcripts were up-regulated in vivo in spleen tissue from polyI:C treated salmon and in vitro in polyI:C or IFNγ stimulated Salmon Head Kidney-1 (SHK-1) cells. Initial studies into the functional role of salmon UNC93B1 in fish TLR signalling found that both wild type salmon UNC93B1 and a molecule with a site-directed mutation (H424R) co-immunoprecipitated with salmon TLR19, TLR20a and TLR20d. Overall, these data illustrate the potential importance of UNC93B1 as an accessory protein in fish TLR signalling.

Abstract
1. The expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1) and myostatin (MSTN) mRNA in breast and leg muscle was quantified in 70-d-old Taihu and Wanxi geese by using a Multiplex Competitive Fluorescent-PCR method and the correlations between mRNA levels and carcass traits were analysed. 2. IGF1 mRNA expression in breast muscle in Taihu geese was significantly higher than that in Wanxi geese and the MSTN mRNA level in leg muscle in Taihu geese was significantly higher than that in Wanxi geese. 3. There was no significant difference in breast muscle MSTN or leg muscle IGF1 mRNA expression between the two breeds. 4. Within the same breed, the IGF1 mRNA expression in leg muscle of male geese was significantly higher than that in female geese, and MSTN mRNA expression in leg muscle was significantly higher than that in breast muscle. 5. There was no difference in the IGF1 mRNA expression between tissues. 6. There was a positive correlation between IGF1 mRNA and MSTN mRNA and a negative correlation between IGF1 mRNA expression of breast muscle and leg muscle ratio. 7. In Wanxi geese, MSTN mRNA expression in leg muscle was negatively associated with body weight and leg muscle weight.

Abstract
Teleost fish possess many types of toll-like receptor (TLR) some of which exist in other vertebrate groups and some that do not (ie so-called "fish-specific" TLRs). In this study, we identified in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) whole-genome shotgun (WGS) contigs seven TLRs that are not found in mammals, including six types of fish-specific TLRs (one TLR18, one TLR19, and four TLR20 members (two of which are putative soluble forms (s)) and one TLR21. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that teleost TLR19-21 are closely related with murine TLR11-TLR13, whilst teleost TLR18 groups with mammalian TLR1, 2, 6 and 10. A typical TLR protein domain structure was found in all these TLRs with the exception of TLR20b(s) and TLR20c(s). TLR-GFP expression plasmids transfected into SHK-1 cells showed that salmon TLR19, TLR20a and TLR20d were preferentially localised to the intracellular compartment. Real time PCR analysis suggested that salmon TLR19-TLR21 are mainly expressed in immune related organs, such as spleen, head kidney and gills, while TLR18 transcripts are more abundant in muscle. In vitro stimulation of primary head kidney cells with type I IFN, IFNγ and IL-1β had no impact on TLR expression. Infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) infection, in vivo, down-regulated TLR20a, TLR20b(s), TLR20d and TLR21 in infected salmon kidney tissue. In contrast, up-regulation of TLR19 and TLR20a expression was found in posterior kidney in rainbow trout with clinical proliferative kidney disease (PKD).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various portable monitors for identifying obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have been investigated and reported to enable accurate recording of OSA severity. However, more information is needed from different populations. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of a portable 2-channel sleep apnea device (SleepView) for screening OSA in the Chinese population. METHODS Ninety-three consecutive subjects underwent simultaneous SleepView testing and laboratory polysomnography (PSG) monitoring. Data were collected and blindly analyzed. The efficiency of the SleepView device and a newly established predictive model for identifying OSA was evaluated in comparison with PSG. RESULTS Good agreement was evident between the SleepView and PSG based on the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI; r(2) = 0.84, P < .01). The median AHI yielded by the SleepView was higher than that of PSG: 33.2 (interquartile range of 10.5-53.3) versus 19.2 (interquartile range of 5.2-53.6). The sensitivity and specificity of the SleepView for a PSG AHI of ≥ 5 were 80.28% and 95.45%, respectively, and the cutoff was 16.8. The area under the receiver operating curve for PSG AHIs of ≥ 5, > 15, and > 30 was 0.923, 0.924, and 0.979, respectively. When the AHI and oxygen desaturation index calculated by the SleepView were combined with waist circumference, the new predictive model showed a higher sensitivity of 92.96% and a specificity of 95.45% for a PSG AHI of ≥ 5, and the corresponding area under the receiver operating curve was 0.983. CONCLUSIONS The SleepView device exhibited acceptable diagnostic accuracy for OSA in the Chinese population, especially in the severe OSA group. A practical predictive model comprising waist circumference, AHI, and oxygen desaturation index obtained with the SleepView was highly effective for screening even mild OSA. This simple and practical device may serve as a useful tool to screen for OSA. Further studies are required to validate the diagnostic efficiency of the SleepView in the home environment and in different populations.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common form of primary liver cancer, and is also highly resistant to conventional chemotherapy treatments. In this study, we report that Longikaurin A (LK-A), an ent-kaurane diterpenoid isolated from the plant Isodon ternifolius, induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human HCC cell lines. LK-A also suppressed tumor growth in SMMC-7721 xenograft models, without inducing any notable major organ-related toxicity. LK-A treatment led to reduced expression of the proto-oncogene S phase kinase-associated protein 2 (Skp2) in SMMC-7721 cells. Lower Skp2 levels correlated with increased expression of p21 and p-cdc2 (Try15), and a corresponding decrease in protein levels of Cyclin B1 and cdc2. Overexpression of Skp2 significantly inhibited LK-A-induced cell cycle arrest in SMMC-7721 cells, suggesting that LK-A may target Skp2 to arrest cells at the G2/M phase. LK-A also induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and apoptosis in SMMC-7721 cells. LK-A induced phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), but not extracellular signal-regulated kinase and P38 MAP kinase. Treatment with, the JNK inhibitor SP600125 prevented LK-A-induced apoptosis in SMMC-7721 cells. Moreover, the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine prevented phosphorylation of both JNK and c-Jun. Taken together, these data indicate that LK-A induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells by dampening Skp2 expression, and thereby activating the ROS/JNK/c-Jun signaling pathways. LK-A is therefore a potential lead compound for development of antitumor drugs targeting HCC.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs of approximately 22 nucleotides in length, which play important roles in regulating gene expression post-transcriptionally. Several computational methods and algorithms have been developed to predict miRNA targets. In this study, we described a method that can be used to integrate miRNA target prediction data from multiple sources and gene expression data to predict target genes of particular miRNAs. We used hsa-miR-375 as an example to test the feasibility of our method. A total of 5645 target genes of hsa-miR-375 were identified from five prediction programs, and among them, 2440 target genes were shared by at least 2 of these 5 programs. By using our method, the number was further reduced to 149 and 5 of the 149 target genes had been validated by previous study. This is a simple yet highly effective approach.

Abstract
Marine organisms are commonly exposed to variable environmental conditions, and many of them are under threat from increased sea temperatures caused by global climate change. Generating transcriptomic resources under different stress conditions are crucial for understanding molecular mechanisms underlying thermal adaptation. In this study, we conducted transcriptome-wide gene expression profiling of the scallop Chlamys farreri challenged by acute and chronic heat stress. Of the 13 953 unique tags, more than 850 were significantly differentially expressed at each time point after acute heat stress, which was more than the number of tags differentially expressed (320-350) under chronic heat stress. To obtain a systemic view of gene expression alterations during thermal stress, a weighted gene coexpression network was constructed. Six modules were identified as acute heat stress-responsive modules. Among them, four modules involved in apoptosis regulation, mRNA binding, mitochondrial envelope formation and oxidation reduction were downregulated. The remaining two modules were upregulated. One was enriched with chaperone and the other with microsatellite sequences, whose coexpression may originate from a transcription factor binding site. These results indicated that C. farreri triggered several cellular processes to acclimate to elevated temperature. No modules responded to chronic heat stress, suggesting that the scallops might have acclimated to elevated temperature within 3 days. This study represents the first sequencing-based gene network analysis in a nonmodel aquatic species and provides valuable gene resources for the study of thermal adaptation, which should assist in the development of heat-tolerant scallop lines for aquaculture.

Abstract
Mammalian Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 and 8 are responsible for recognizing viral single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and are activated by anti-viral imidazoquinoline compounds, leading to a series of defensive mechanisms being launched to protect the host against viruses. In this study, we identified two TLR7 (with one probably a pseudogene) and three TLR8 genes, namely TLR8a2, TLR8b1 and TLR8b2 from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) whole-genome shotgun (WGS) contigs. Bioinformatics analysis showed that salmon TLR7 and TLR8a2 are closely related to the corresponding trout orthologs, however, salmon TLR8b1 and TLR8b2 share the highest amino acid sequence similarity to zebrafish TLR8b and formed a subfamily of the piscine TLR8 molecules in phylogenetic tree analysis. A conserved gene synteny was found with the salmon TLR7/8a members as seen in other vertebrate loci. Deduced domain organisation of salmon TLR7 and TLR8 molecules showed similar structural features, with equal numbers of leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) and insertion motifs. Individual TLR molecules were expressed in a similar pattern between parr and post-smolts, with a high expression level in immune tissues. Promoter analysis predicted several transcription factor binding sites in the TLR8a1/2 and TLR8b1 5' flanking regions, namely C/EBP, AP-1, STAT, NFκB, and IRF family, suggesting cytokine regulation of the genes. Hence, three recombinant cytokines, type I IFN, IFNγ and IL-1β were used to study the regulation of the salmon TLR gene expression levels in primary head kidney cells and the Salmon Head Kidney-1 (SHK-1) cell line. Salmon TLR7 and TLR8a1 gene expression was more sensitive to type I IFN and IFNγ treatment in primary head kidney cells and SHK-1 cells respectively, with no significant up-regulation of TLR8a2 and TLR8b2 by any of the treatments. On the other hand, salmon TLR8a1 and TLR8b1 were most sensitive to IL-1β treatment in SHK-1 cells and primary head kidney cells, respectively. TLR8b2 was undetectable in SHK-1 cells under these same conditions.

Abstract
Recent evidence shows that moxifloxacin could exert an antimicrobial effect
against Helicobacter pylori in both in vitro
and in vivo models. To systematically evaluate whether
moxifloxacin-containing triple therapy could improve eradication rates and
reduce side effects in first-line or second-line anti-H. pylori
treatment, eligible articles were identified by searches of electronic
databases. We included all randomized trials comparing moxifloxacin-based triple
therapy with standard triple or quadruple therapy during H.
pylori eradication treatment. Statistical analysis was performed
with Review Manager 5.0.10. Subanalysis/sensitivity analysis was also performed.
We identified seven randomized trials (n=1263). Pooled H.
pylori eradication rates were 79.03% (95%CI: 75.73-82.07) and
68.33% (95%CI: 64.44-72.04) for patients with moxifloxacin-based triple therapy
or with standard triple or quadruple therapy, respectively (intention-to-treat
analysis). The odds ratio (OR) was 1.82 (95%CI: 1.17-2.81), the occurrence of
total side effects was 15.23% (95%CI: 12.58-18.20) and 27.17% (95%CI:
23.64-30.92) for groups with or without moxifloxacin, and the summary OR was
0.45 (95%CI: 0.26-0.77). In subgroup analyses, we noted that the second-line
eradication rate in the moxifloxacin group was significantly higher than that in
the quadruple therapy group (73.33 vs 60.17%, OR: 1.78, 95%CI:
1.16-2.73, P<0.001). However, there was no difference in first-line
eradication treatment. Findings from this meta-analysis suggest that
moxifloxacin-based triple therapy is more effective and better tolerated than
standard triple or quadruple therapy. Therefore, a moxifloxacin-based triple
regimen should be used in the second-line treatment of H.
pylori infection.
