Abstract
Hypoxia is a unique environmental stress, which not only reflects the insufficient oxygen supply of cells and tissues, but also occurs in various physiological and pathological environments. Mitophagy as a selective autophagy can recover and utilize damaged organelles and misfolded proteins to ensure normal cell functions and promote cell survival. Bcl2l13 (B-cell lymphoma-2 like 13) is reported to induce mitophagy as a functional mammalian homolog of Atg32. However, the function of the bcl2l13 gene is still unclear in fish. Here the sequence and structure of the bcl2l13 gene in Megalobrama amblycephala were identified and showed that bcl2l13 contained an open reading frame (ORF) of 1458 bp for encoding 485 aa. Amino acid sequence analysis indicated that Bcl2l13, as a typical anti-apoptotic protein of the Bcl2 family, contained four BH domains, one BHNo domain, and one TM domain. Further study showed that Bcl2l13 was mainly located in the mitochondria, while its localization was changed within the whole cell after the TM domain was deleted. Real-time PCR analysis revealed that bcl2l13 showed higher expression levels in early embryos. After hypoxia treatment, the mRNA levels of the bcl2l13 and autophagy-related genes were significantly up-regulated in most detected tissues, and the bcl2l13 transcription was regulated by Hif-1α mediated pathway. Additionally, the transcription activity of the bcl2l13 promoter was further analyzed using luciferase reporter assays and showed the highest activity in the promoter region from -475 to +111. These results indicated that bcl2l13 may play important roles in embryogenesis and hypoxia mediated autophagy in fish.

Abstract
China boasts a rich diversity of indigenous duck species, some of which exhibit desirable economic traits. Here, we generated transcriptome sequencing datasets of breast muscle tissue samples from 1D of four groups: Pekin duck pure breeding group (P), Jinling White duck breeding group (J), P ♂ × J ♀ orthogonal group (PJ) and J ♂ × P ♀ reciprocal-cross group (JP) (n = 3), chosen based on the distinctive characteristics of duck muscle development during the embryonic period. We identified 5053 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) among the four groups. Network prediction analysis showed that ribosome and oxidative phosphorylation-related genes were the most enriched, and muscular protein-related genes were found in the 14-day-old embryonic group. We found that previously characterized functional genes, such as FN1, AGRN, ADNAMST3, APOB and FGF9, were potentially involved in muscle development in 14-day-old embryos. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that genes that participated in molecular function and cell component and key signaling pathways (e.g., hippo, ribosome, oxidative phosphorylation) were significantly enriched in the development of skeletal muscle at 14 days of embryonic age. These results indicate a possible role of muscle metabolism and myoglobin synthesis in skeletal muscle development in both duck parents and hybrids.

Abstract
DNA methylation is a pivotal epigenetic regulatory mechanism in the development of skeletal muscles. Nonetheless, the regulators responsible for DNA methylation in the development of embryonic duck skeletal muscles remain unknown. In the present study, whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) and transcriptome sequencing were conducted on the skeletal muscles of embryonic day 21 (E21) and day 28 (E28) ducks. The DNA methylation pattern was found to fall mainly within the cytosine-guanine (CG) context, with high methylation levels in the intron, exon, and promoter regions. Overall, 7902 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified, which corresponded to 3174 differentially methylated genes (DMGs). By using integrative analysis of both WGBS with transcriptomics, we identified 1072 genes that are DMGs that are negatively associated with differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed significant enrichment in phosphorylation, kinase activity, phosphotransferase activity, alcohol-based receptors, and binding to cytoskeletal proteins. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGGs) analysis showed significant enrichment in MAPK signaling, Wnt signaling, apelin signaling, insulin signaling, and FoxO signaling. The screening of enriched genes showed that hyper-methylation inhibited the expression of Idh3a, Got1, Bcl2, Mylk2, Klf2, Erbin, and Klhl38, and hypo-methylation stimulated the expression of Col22a1, Dnmt3b, Fn1, E2f1, Rprm, and Wfikkn1. Further predictions showed that the CpG islands in the promoters of Klhl38, Klf2, Erbin, Mylk2, and Got1 may play a crucial role in regulating the development of skeletal muscles. This study provides new insights into the epigenetic regulation of the development of duck skeletal muscles.

Abstract
Muscle cell growth plays an important role in skeletal muscle development. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been proven to be involved in the regulation of skeletal muscle growth and development. In this study, we explored the effect of circTTN on myoblast growth and its possible molecular mechanism. Using C2C12 cells as a functional model, the authenticity of circTTN was confirmed by RNase R digestion and Sanger sequencing. Previous functional studies have showed that the overexpression of circTTN inhibits myoblast proliferation and differentiation. Mechanistically, circTTN recruits the PURB protein on the Titin (TTN) promoter to inhibit the expression of the TTN gene. Moreover, PURB inhibits myoblast proliferation and differentiation, which is consistent with circTTN function. In summary, our results indicate that circTTN inhibits the transcription and myogenesis of the host gene TTN by recruiting PURB proteins to form heterotypic complexes. This work may act as a reference for further research on the role of circRNA in skeletal muscle growth and development.

Abstract
Objective FKBP prolyl isomerase 5 (FKBP5) has been shown to play an important role in metabolically active tissues such as skeletal muscle. However, the expression of FKBP5 in Muscovy duck tissues and its association with body weight are still unclear. Methods In this study, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression of FKBP5 in different tissues of Muscovy duck at different growth stages. Further, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected in the exon region of FKBP5 and were combined analyzed with the body weight of 334 Muscovy ducks. Results FKBP5 was highly expressed in various tissues of Muscovy duck at days 17, 19, 21, 24, and 27 of embryonic development. In addition, the expression of FKBP5 in the tissues of female adult Muscovy ducks was higher than that of male Muscovy ducks. Besides, an association analysis indicated that 3 SNPs were related to body weight trait. At the g.4819252 A>G, the body weight of AG genotype was significantly higher than that of the AA and the GG genotype. At the g.4821390 G>A, the genotype GA was extremely significantly related to body weight. At the g.4830622 T>G, the body weight of TT was significantly higher than GG and TG. Conclusion These findings indicate the possible effects of expression levels in various tissues and the SNPs of FKBP5 on Muscovy duck body weight trait. FKBP5 could be used as molecular marker for muscle development trait using early marker-assisted selection of Muscovy ducks.

Abstract
As the global population grows, we need a stable protein supply to meet the demands. Although plant-derived protein sources are widely available, animal meat maintains its popularity as a high-quality and savory protein source. Recently, cultured meat, also known as in vitro meat, has been suggested as a meat analog produced through in vitro cell culture technology. Cultured meat has several advantages over conventional meat, such as environmental protection, disease prevention, and animal welfare. However, cultured meat manufacturing is an emerging technology; thus, its further and dynamic development would be pivotal. Commercialization of cultured meat to the public will take a long time but cultured meat undoubtedly will come to our table someday. Here, we discuss the social and economic aspects of cultured meat production as well as the recent technical advances in cultured meat technology.

Abstract
The H19 gene promotes skeletal muscle differentiation in mice, but the regulatory models and mechanisms of myogenesis regulated by H19 are largely unknown in pigs. Therefore, the regulatory modes of H19 in the differentiation of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells (PSCs) need to be determined. We observed that H19 gene silencing could decrease the expressions of the myogenin (MYOG) gene, myogenic differentiation (MYOD), and myosin heavy chain (MYHC) in PSCs. Therefore, we constructed and sequenced 12 cDNA libraries of PSCs after knockdown of H19 at two differentiation time points to analyze the transcriptome differences. A total of 11,419 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. Among these DEGs, we found through bioinformatics analysis and protein interaction experiment that SRY-box transcription factor 4 (SOX4) and Drebrin 1 (DBN1) were the key genes in H19-regulated PSC differentiation. Functional analysis shows that SOX4 and DBN1 promote PSC differentiation. Mechanistically, H19 regulates PSC differentiation through two different pathways. On the one hand, H19 functions as a molecular sponge of miR-140-5p, which inhibits the differentiation of PSCs, thereby modulating the derepression of SOX4. On the other hand, H19 regulates PSC differentiation through directly binding with DBN1. Furthermore, MYOD binds to the promoters of H19 and DBN1. The knockdown of MYOD inhibits the expression of H19 and DBN1. We determined the function of H19 and provided a molecular model to elucidate H19’s role in regulating PSC differentiation.

Abstract
Crude oil spills are a worldwide ocean conservation threat. Fish are particularly vulnerable to the oiling of spawning habitats, and crude oil causes severe abnormalities in embryos and larvae. However, the underlying mechanisms for these developmental defects are not well understood. Here, we explore the transcriptional basis for four discrete crude oil injury phenotypes in the early life stages of the commercially important Atlantic haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus). These include defects in (1) cardiac form and function, (2) craniofacial development, (3) ionoregulation and fluid balance, and (4) cholesterol synthesis and homeostasis. Our findings suggest a key role for intracellular calcium cycling and excitation-transcription coupling in the dysregulation of heart and jaw morphogenesis. Moreover, the disruption of ionoregulatory pathways sheds new light on buoyancy control in marine fish embryos. Overall, our chemical-genetic approach identifies initiating events for distinct adverse outcome pathways and novel roles for individual genes in fundamental developmental processes.
