Abstract
Commencing with sperm-egg fusion, the early stages of metazoan development include the cleavage and formation of blastula and gastrula. These early embryonic events play a crucial role in ontogeny and are accompanied by a dramatic remodeling of the gene network, particularly encompassing the maternal-to-zygotic transition. Nonetheless, the gene expression dynamics governing early embryogenesis remain unclear in most metazoan lineages. We conducted transcriptomic profiling on two types of gametes (oocytes and sperms) and early embryos (ranging from the four-cell to the gastrula stage) of an economically valuable flatfish-the Chinese tongue sole Cynoglossus semilaevis (Pleuronectiformes: Cynoglossidae). Comparative transcriptome analysis revealed that large-scale zygotic genome activation (ZGA) occurs in the blastula stage, aligning with previous findings in zebrafish. Through the comparison of the most abundant transcripts identified in each sample and the functional analysis of co-expression modules, we unveiled distinct functional enrichments across different gametes/developmental stages: actin- and immune-related functions in sperms; mitosis, transcription inhibition, and mitochondrial function in oocytes and in pre-ZGA embryos (four- to 1000-cell stage); and organ development in post-ZGA embryos (blastula and gastrula). These results provide insights into the intricate transcriptional regulation of early embryonic development in Cynoglossidae fish and expand our knowledge of developmental constraints in vertebrates.

Abstract
SET (SuVar3-9, Enhancer of Zeste, Trithorax) domain bifurcated histone lysine methyltransferase 1, setdb1, is the predominant histone lysine methyltransferase catalyzing H3K9me3. Prior studies have illustrated that setdb1 and H3K9me3 critically regulate sex differentiation and gametogenesis. However, the molecular details by which setdb1 is involved in these processes in fish have been poorly reported. Here, we cloned and characterized the setdb1 ORF (open reading frame) sequence from Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis). The setdb1 ORF sequence was 3,669 bp, encoding a 1,222-amino-acid protein. Phylogenetic analysis showed that setdb1 was structurally conserved. qRT-PCR revealed that setdb1 had a high expression level in the testes at 12 mpf (months post fertilization). Single-cell RNA-seq data at 24 mpf indicated that setdb1 was generally expressed in spermatogenic cells at each stage except for sperm and was centrally expressed in oogonia. H3K9me3 modification was observed in gonads with the immunofluorescence technique. Furthermore, the overexpression experiment suggested that sox5 was a candidate target of setdb1. sox5 was abundantly expressed in male and pseudomale gonads at 24 mpf. Single-cell RNA-seq data showed that sox5 was mainly expressed in spermatogonia and its expression gradually declined with differentiation. Taken together, our findings imply that setdb1 regulates sox5 transcription in gonads, which provides molecular clues into histone modification-mediated orchestration of sex differentiation and gametogenesis.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who developed checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP) and to explore potential prognostic factors. Methods: NSCLC patients who were complicated with CIP after immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) therapy in our institute were enrolled in this study from 1 July 2018 to 30 November 2022. Clinical data of NSCLC-CIP patients were collected, including clinical and radiological features and their outcomes. Results: Among the 70 enrolled NSCLC-CIP patients, there were 57 males (81%) and 13 females (19%). The mean age at the diagnosis of CIP was (65.2±6.3) years. There were 46 smokers (66%), 26 patients (37%) with emphysema, 19 patients (27%) with previous interstitial lung disease, and 26 patients (37%) with a history of thoracic radiation. The mean interval from the first application of checkpoint inhibitor to the onset of CIP was (122.7±106.9) days (range: 2-458 days). The main chest CT manifestations were coincided with non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern and organizing pneumonia (OP) pattern. Most patients had grade 2 (21 cases) or grade 3 (34 cases) CIP. Seventeen patients had been concurrent with other immune-related adverse events such as rash, hepatitis, colitis, and thyroiditis. Half of the enrolled patients (36 patients/51%) had fever, and most patients had elevated C-reactive protein (52 patients/72%) and all patients had elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (70 patients/100%). Serum lactate dehydrogenase was elevated in 34 CIP patients. Prednisone≥1 mg·kg-1·d-1 (or equivalent) was the most commonly used initial treatment in CIP patients (50 patients/71.4%). Complications with pulmonary infections (OR=4.44, P=0.03), use of anti-fungal drugs (OR=5.10, P=0.03) or therapeutic dose of sulfamethoxazole (OR=4.86, P=0.04), longer duration of prednisone≥1 mg·kg-1·d-1 (or equivalent) (Z=-2.33, P=0.02) were probable potential risk factors for poor prognosis. Conclusions: Older males with smoking history might be predisposed to develop NSCLC-CIPs after ICIs therapy. NSIP pattern and OP pattern were common chest CT manifestations. Complications with pulmonary infections (especially fungal infection or Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia), longer duration, longer duration of high-dose corticosteroids were likely potential risk factors for poor prognosis.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming the most common chronic liver disease in the world. Immunity is the major contributing factor in NAFLD; however, the interaction of immune cells and hepatocytes in disease progression has not been fully elucidated. As a popular species for studying NAFLD, zebrafish, whose liver is a complex immune system mediated by immune cells and non-immune cells in maintaining immune tolerance and homeostasis. Understanding the cellular composition and immune environment of zebrafish liver is of great significance for its application in NAFLD. Here, we established a liver atlas that consists of 10 cell types using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). By examining the heterogeneity of hepatocytes and analyzing the expression of NAFLD-associated genes in the specific cluster, we provide a potential target cell model to study NAFLD. Additionally, our analysis identified two subtypes of distinct resident macrophages with inflammatory and non-inflammatory functions and characterized the successive stepwise development of T cell subclusters in the liver. Importantly, we uncovered the possible regulation of macrophages and T cells on target cells of fatty liver by analyzing the cellular interaction between hepatocytes and immune cells. Our data provide valuable information for an in-depth study of immune cells targeting hepatocytes to regulate the immune balance in NAFLD.

Abstract
Background Glioma (GL), a primary brain tumor, presents significant challenges in patient care due to its complex disease trajectory and psychological impact. Phased nursing interventions, grounded in the Chronic Illness Trajectory Model (CITM), offer a holistic approach to addressing these multifaceted needs. Objective The objective of this study was to assess the impact of phased nursing within the CITM on the psychological well-being, quality of life, and cancer-related fatigue (CRF) of glioma patients. Methods A total of 100 GL patients undergoing treatment at our hospital between February 2020 and February 2021 were enrolled in this randomized controlled trial. Patients were randomly assigned to either the control group, which received standard routine care, or the observation group, which received phased nursing interventions based on the CITM framework. The mental state, quality of life, and CRF scores of the patients were assessed using validated measures at baseline and following the intervention period. Statistical analyses were conducted to compare the outcomes between the two groups. Results The findings revealed that patients in the observation group exhibited significantly higher scores in mental state and quality of life domains compared to those in the control group (P < .05). Additionally, patients receiving phased nursing showed a significant reduction in CRF scores post-intervention. These results indicate that phased nursing within the CITM framework has a beneficial effect on the psychological well-being and overall quality of life of GL patients while also mitigating CRF. Conclusions Our findings suggest that incorporating phased nursing interventions into the care of GL patients can lead to improvements in psychological outcomes, CRF, and quality of life. These findings underscore the importance of adopting holistic approaches to patient care, particularly in chronic disease management.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 infected patients with interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We respectively enrolled ILA patients who had been regularly followed up in Peking Union Medical College Hospital for more than six months since January 2021. Clinical data of these ILA patients were collected after the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic (from December 2022 to January 2023), thirty-eight patients with preexisting ILA were enrolled. Among them, there were 34 ILA patients (20 males and 14 females) who were infected with SARS-CoV-2 during this period, with an average age of (64.0±8.8) years old (range: 41-80). There were 12 (35.3%) ILA patients who were suffered from COVID-19(pneumonia group) and others were the non-pneumonia group. The clinical characteristics, including vaccination status, features of COVID-19 and outcomes of the two groups were compared. Results: Regarding the subcategories of ILA, there were 7 cases of subpleural fibrotic ILA, 10 cases of subpleural non-fibrotic ILA, and 17 cases of non-subpleural ILA. Before SARS-CoV-2 infection, the average pulse oxygen saturation at rest was (97.38±0.87)% (range: 96%-99%); average forced vital capacity (FVC) was (97.6±18.1)% predicted (range: 65%-132%); and average diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) was (76.2±16.3)% predicted (range: 53%-108%). Nineteen patients had been vaccinated with 3 doses of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, and 5 of them developed COVID-19. One patient had received one dose of vaccine and did not develop COVID-19. The other 14 patients had not been vaccinated, and seven of them developed COVID-19. Of the 12 patients with COVID-19, six were diagnosed with severe COVID-19, and the other 6 ILA patients were diagnosed with moderate COVID-19. Among them, 1 patient was complicated by deep vein thrombosis of left lower limb. All 6 patients with severe COVID-19 who were cured after systemic corticosteroids. As for the other six moderate COVID-19 patients, all were cured and/or improved greatly: two were treated with short-term oral corticosteroids, one was prescribed a dose of compound betamethasone, and the other two were not treated with systemic corticosteroids. Conclusion: Patients with ILA were predisposed to develop COVID-19 after infection with SARS-CoV-2, and more than half of them had severe COVID-19.

Abstract
Chinese sea bass (Lateolabrax maculatus) is a highly sought-after commercial seafood species in Asian regions due to its excellent nutritional value. With the rapid advancement of bioinformatics, higher standards for genome analysis compared to previously published reference genomes are now necessary. This study presents a gapless assembly of the Chinese sea bass genome, which has a length of 632.75 Mb. The sequences were assembled onto 24 chromosomes with a coverage of over 99% (626.61 Mb), and telomeres were detected on 34 chromosome ends. Analysis using Merqury indicated a high level of accuracy, with an average consensus quality value of 54.25. The ONT ultralong and PacBio HiFi data were aligned with the assembly using minimap2, resulting in a mapping rate of 99.9%. The study also identified repeating elements in 20.90% (132.25 Mb) of the genome and inferred 22,014 protein-coding genes. These results establish meaningful groundwork for exploring the evolution of the Chinese sea bass genome and advancing molecular breeding techniques.

As a common influencing factor in the environment, temperature greatly influences the fish that live in the water all their life. The essential economic fish Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis), a benthic fish, will experience both physiological and behavioral changes due to increases in temperature. The brain, as the central hub of fish and a crucial regulatory organ, is particularly sensitive to temperature changes and will be affected. However, previous research has mainly concentrated on the impact of temperature on the gonads of C. semilaevis. Instead, our study examines the brain using transcriptomics to investigate specific genes and pathways that can quickly respond to temperature changes. The fish were subjected to various periods of heat stress (1 h, 2 h, 3 h, and 5 h) before extracting the brain for transcriptome analysis. After conducting transcriptomic analyses, we identified distinct genes and pathways in males and females. The pathways were mainly related to cortisol synthesis and secretion, neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions, TGF beta signaling pathway, and JAK/STAT signaling pathway, while the genes included the HSP family, tshr, c-fos, c-jun, cxcr4, camk2b, and igf2. Our study offers valuable insights into the regulation mechanisms of the brain's response to temperature stress.

Abstract
Exosomes are endosome-derived extracellular vesicles about 100 nm in diameter. They are emerging as promising delivery platforms due to their advantages in biocompatibility and engineerability. However, research into and applications for engineered exosomes are still limited to a few areas of medicine in mammals. Here, we expanded the scope of their applications to sex-determining gene studies in early vertebrates. An integrated strategy for constructing the exosome-based delivery system was developed for efficient regulation of dmrt1, which is one of the most widely used sex-determining genes in metazoans. By combining classical methods in molecular biology and the latest technology in bioinformatics, isomiR-124a was identified as a dmrt1 inhibitor and was loaded into exosomes and a testis-targeting peptide was used to modify exosomal surface for efficient delivery. Results showed that isomiR-124a was efficiently delivered to the testes by engineered exosomes and revealed that dmrt1 played important roles in maintaining the regular structure and function of testis in juvenile fish. This is the first de novo development of an exosome-based delivery system applied in the study of sex-determining gene, which indicates an attractive prospect for the future applications of engineered exosomes in exploring more extensive biological conundrums.

Abstract
Lutjanus erythropterus (Bloch, 1790), a Perciformes from the Lutjanidae family, is a commercially important species because of its taste and abundance. Despite the increase in genome resources in recent years, few genome assemblies are available within this fish family for comparative and functional studies. In this study, we determined the chromosomal genome of Crimson snapper using high-throughput Single-Tube Long Fragment Reads sequencing technology and Hi-C data. The final assembly size was 973.04 Mb with contig and scaffold N50 values of 1.51 and 40.65 Mb, respectively. We successfully scaffolded 95.84% of the genome sequence onto 24 chromosomes ranging in length from 19.37 to 49.48 Mb. A total of 22,663 genes and 13,877 gene families were identified in the genome, with 29 gene families being L. erythropterus-specific. A phylogenetic analysis using single-copy gene families showed that L. erythropterus and Larimichthys crocea had the closest genetic relationship with a divergence time of ∼47.7 Ma. This new genomic resource will facilitate comparative genomic studies as well as genetic breeding programs for L. erythropterus.

Abstract
Tiger puffer fish (Takifugu rubripes) has become the main fish species cultured in China since the last century because of its high economic value. Male and female tiger puffer fish need 2 and 3 years each to reach sexual maturity, which limits the development of breeding research for this species. In recent years, in vitro culture of fish spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) have shown potential in aquaculture. In the present study, we established a spermatogenic stem cell line from T. rubripes (TrSSCs). TrSSCs were characterized by polygonal morphology, predominantly retained 44 chromosomes, and grew rapidly at 26 °C and in L-15. TrSSCs were still able to grow stably after more than one year of in vitro culture. TrSSCs showed positive alkaline phosphatase staining. TrSSCs expressed germ cell-associated genes, including dnd, ddx4, piwil, gfra1b, sox2, myca, nanog, ly75, and dazl, as determined by semiquantitative assays, and almost all cells were found to express the germ cell genes ddx4 and gfra1b in a fluorescence in situ hybridization assay. In vitro, induction experiments demonstrated the TrSSCs possessed the ability to differentiate into other types of cells. Our research has enriched the fish spermatogonial stem cell resource bank, which will provide an efficient research model for sex determination and sex control breeding in fish, establishing a foundation for subsequent breeding research.

Abstract
AIM To explore and compare the ultrasonic (US) features of pilomatricoma (PM) and epidermoid cyst (EC) in the differential diagnosis and improve the accuracy of US diagnosis of PM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three hundred and nine patients who underwent US examination before surgery with a histopathological diagnosis of PM or EC after surgery were analysed retrospectively. The patients were categorised into the training and validation sets according to the inspection times. Univariate analysis was undertaken on the US and clinical features of PM and statistically significant variables (p<0.05) were included in the multivariate logistic regression model to establish a diagnostic model. RESULTS The results demonstrated that the multivariate logistic regression model for PM was statistically significant (p<0.001). The risk factors included posterior echo attenuation and hypoechoic halos (odds ratio [OR] = 9.277, 10.254) and the protective factors included age, diameter thickness, and posterior echo enhancement (OR=0.936, 0.302, 0.156). The performance of the diagnostic model was tested using the training set (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] = 0.974, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.955-0.994) and the validation set (AUC = 0.967, 95% CI = 0.926-1.000), which demonstrated good discriminant ability. CONCLUSIONS The diagnostic accuracy for PM was higher than that for EC when the nodule is characterised by posterior echo attenuation, hypoechoic halos, smaller thickness, and younger age. The US diagnostic model developed may be used to guide the diagnosis of PM.

Abstract
Red claw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus) is an aquatic crustacean with considerable potential for the commercial culture and an ideal model for studying the mechanism of sex determination. To provide better genomic resources, we assembled a chromosome-level genome with a size of 5.26 Gb and contig N50 of 144.33 kb. Nearly 90% of sequences were anchored to 100 chromosomes, which represents the high-quality crustacean genome with the largest number of chromosomes ever reported. The genome contained 78.69% repeat sequences and 20,460 protein-coding genes, of which 82.40% were functionally annotated. This chromosome-scale genome would be a valuable reference for assemblies of other complex genomes and studies of evolution in crustaceans.

Abstract
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is Earth's most abundant wild animal, and its enormous biomass is vital to the Southern Ocean ecosystem. Here, we report a 48.01-Gb chromosome-level Antarctic krill genome, whose large genome size appears to have resulted from inter-genic transposable element expansions. Our assembly reveals the molecular architecture of the Antarctic krill circadian clock and uncovers expanded gene families associated with molting and energy metabolism, providing insights into adaptations to the cold and highly seasonal Antarctic environment. Population-level genome re-sequencing from four geographical sites around the Antarctic continent reveals no clear population structure but highlights natural selection associated with environmental variables. An apparent drastic reduction in krill population size 10 mya and a subsequent rebound 100 thousand years ago coincides with climate change events. Our findings uncover the genomic basis of Antarctic krill adaptations to the Southern Ocean and provide valuable resources for future Antarctic research.

Abstract
The germline mutation rate determines the pace of genome evolution and is an evolving parameter itself1. However, little is known about what determines its evolution, as most studies of mutation rates have focused on single species with different methodologies2. Here we quantify germline mutation rates across vertebrates by sequencing and comparing the high-coverage genomes of 151 parent-offspring trios from 68 species of mammals, fishes, birds and reptiles. We show that the per-generation mutation rate varies among species by a factor of 40, with mutation rates being higher for males than for females in mammals and birds, but not in reptiles and fishes. The generation time, age at maturity and species-level fecundity are the key life-history traits affecting this variation among species. Furthermore, species with higher long-term effective population sizes tend to have lower mutation rates per generation, providing support for the drift barrier hypothesis3. The exceptionally high yearly mutation rates of domesticated animals, which have been continually selected on fecundity traits including shorter generation times, further support the importance of generation time in the evolution of mutation rates. Overall, our comparative analysis of pedigree-based mutation rates provides ecological insights on the mutation rate evolution in vertebrates.

Abstract
Fish sex determination can be affected by environmental temperature. This process relies on temperature-sensitive proteins such as heat shock proteins (HSPs). Our previous work found that heat shock cognate proteins (HSCs) may participate in high-temperature associated sex reversal of Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis). However, the role of hsc genes in responding to high temperature and affecting sex determination/differentiation remains unclear. Here, by using C. semilaevis as model, we identified hsc70 and hsc70-like. hsc70 was abundant in the gonads with a testicular-higher expression at all gonadal development stages except for 6 months post fertilization (mpf). Intriguingly, hsc70-like showed higher expression in testes from 6 mpf on. Both long-term heat treatment during the temperature-sensitive sex-determining period and short-term heat stress at the end of this period caused different expression of hsc70/hsc70-like between sexes. The dual-luciferase assay results also suggested that these genes can respond to high temperature rapidly in vitro. Heat treatment of C. semilaevis testis cells overexpressed with hsc70/hsc70-like could affect the expression of sex-related genes sox9a and cyp19a1a. Our results indicated that hsc70 and hsc70-like were key regulators linking external high-temperature signals with sex differentiation in vivo and provide a new idea for understanding the mechanism by which high temperature affects sex determination/differentiation in teleosts.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics and prognosis of lung cancer concomitant with interstitial lung disease (LC-ILD), and to understand the current status of knowledge of LC-ILD by physicians in the departments related to the treatment of the disease. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of in-hospitalized pathology identified lung cancer (LC) patients who were admitted to our hospital between January 2014 and December 2018. After reviewing their chest CT imagings and pathological reports, 70 patients who were concomitant with interstitial lung disease (ILD) were enrolled in our study. On the other hand, a cross-sectional survey using an online questionnaire was conducted in LC-ILD management doctors who came from 29 provincial hospitals. The perceptions of demographic features, LC characteristics and management, ILD characteristics and management, and the prognosis of LC-ILD were investigated. Results: Among the 70 enrolled LC-ILD cases, there were 52 males, and the mean age was (64.3±7.63) years (ranged from 49 years to 84 years). There were 51 patients who were older than 59 years. The most common pathological pattern of LC was adenocarcinoma. Most of them were diagnosed with LC and ILD simultaneously, and they were usually treated with chemotherapy while unresectable. There were 11 patients (15.7%) with positive EGFR or ALK mutation. Forty-five patients (64.3%) died during the follow-up, and 33 were died from LC progression. There were no significant differences between the surgical group and non-surgical group on age, pathological patterns, EGFR or ALK mutation. However, LC-ILD patients in the surgical group were diagnosed with earlier TNM classification and with better prognosis. A total of 1 014 doctors answered the questionnaire completely. In the feedback, patients aged 60 years and older (785 doctors/77.4%), and male patients (720 doctors/71%) were the predominant LC-ILD patients. Adenocarcinoma (390 doctors/38.5%), adenocarcinoma or squamous-cell cancer (SCC) (182 doctors/17.9%), and SCC (151 doctors/14.9%) were considered as the common pathological patterns of LC-ILD patients. In most doctors' feedback, the EGFR or ALK mutation was not common for LC-ILD: low (646 doctors/63.7%) or hardly (306 doctors/30.5%) positive mutation. The diagnosis of ILD was earlier than LC (506 doctors/49.9%) or there was no identified precedence of LC and ILD diagnosis (208 doctors/20.5%). Most of the doctors (693 doctors/68.3%) agreed that the vital factor for surgery or not was the severity of ILD for LC-ILD patients. There were great divergences on the treatment protocol both for the advanced LC and ILD. The patients with LC-ILD were died mostly from LC progression and ILD exacerbation (542 doctors/53.5%), followed by ILD exacerbation (237 doctors/23.4%) or LC progression (226 doctors/22.3%). Conclusions: The elderly male patients were predisposed to LC-ILD, and adenocarcinoma was the common pathological pattern. The LC-ILD patients with non-advanced LC who were performed with surgery had better prognosis. However, it is recommended to consider whether to perform surgery in combination with the severity of the ILD.

Abstract
AbstractTwo-dimensional high-throughput data have become increasingly common in functional genomics studies, which raises new challenges in data analysis. Here, we introduce a new statistic called Zeta, initially developed to identify global splicing regulators from a two-dimensional RNAi screen, a high-throughput screen coupled with high-throughput functional readouts, and ZetaSuite, a software package to facilitate general application of the Zeta statistics. We compare our approach with existing methods using multiple benchmarked datasets and then demonstrate the broad utility of ZetaSuite in processing public data from large-scale cancer dependency screens and single-cell transcriptomics studies to elucidate novel biological insights.

Abstract
Female-to-male sex reversals (pseudomales) are common in lower vertebrates and have been found in natural populations, which is a concern under rapid changes in environmental conditions. Pseudomales can exhibit altered spermatogenesis. However, the regulatory mechanisms underlying pseudomale spermatogenesis remain unclear. Here, we characterized spermatogenesis in Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis), a species with genetic and environmental sex determination, based on a high-resolution single-cell RNA-seq atlas of cells derived from the testes of genotypic males and pseudomales. We identified five germ cell types and six somatic cell types and obtained a single-cell atlas of dynamic changes in gene expression during spermatogenesis in Chinese tongue sole, including alterations in pseudomales. We detected decreased levels of Ca2+ signaling pathway-related genes in spermatogonia, insufficient meiotic initiation in spermatocytes, and a malfunction of somatic niche cells in pseudomales. However, a cluster of CaSR genes and MAPK signaling factors were upregulated in undifferentiated spermatogonia of pseudomales. Additionally, we revealed that Z chromosome-specific genes, such as piwil2, dhx37, and ehmt1, were important for spermatogenesis. These results improve our understanding of reproduction after female-to-male sex-reversal and provide new insights into the adaptability of reproductive strategies in lower vertebrates.

Abstract
Kinetochore assembly on centromeres is central for chromosome segregation, and defects in this process cause mitotic errors and aneuploidy. Besides the well-established protein network, emerging evidence suggests the involvement of regulatory RNA in kinetochore assembly; however, it has remained elusive about the identity of such RNA, let alone its mechanism of action in this critical process. Here, we report CCTT, a previously uncharacterized long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) transcribed from the arm of human chromosome 17, which plays a vital role in kinetochore assembly. We show that CCTT highly localizes to all centromeres via the formation of RNA-DNA triplex and specifically interacts with CENP-C to help engage this blueprint protein in centromeres, and consequently, CCTT loss triggers extensive mitotic errors and aneuploidy. These findings uncover a non-centromere-derived lncRNA that recruits CENP-C to centromeres and shed critical lights on the function of centromeric DNA sequences as anchor points for kinetochore assembly.

Abstract
Objectives: To describe the underlying diseases, microbiologic examination and severity of hospitalized patients with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in a tertiary Chinese hospital. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 485 identified PJP patients who were admitted to our hospital between January 2013 and December 2021. Results: Among the 485 enrolled PJP cases, there were 237 males and 248 females, aging (53.3±16.2) years (range from 14 y to 88 y). They were divided into 8 subgroups with variable underlying diseases. There were 209 cases with connective tissue diseases(CTD), 27 cases with non-hematologic malignancies, 38 cases with hematologic malignancies, 81 cases with kidney diseases, 33 cases with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia(IIP), 30 cases infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and 42 cases with miscellaneous underlying diseases. In the CTD group, there was more females than males, while male patients were predominant in both the malignant and the HIV groups. The Pneumocystis was identified in 44.95%(218/485) sputum samples and 92.01%(265/288) bronchoscopic samples. Pneumocystis asci were observed at direct microscopic examination with Grocott's methenamine silver stain in 4.95%(24/485)sputum samples and 9.72%(28/288)bronchoscopic samples. Pneumocystis DNA fragments were identified by PCR analysis in 43.09%(209/485)sputum samples and 90.63%(261/288)bronchoscopic samples. Among the 8 groups, cytomegaviremia and respiratory failure were most common in the HIV-infected PJP group, but the rates of mechanic ventilation, intensive care unit (ICU) admission and death were the lowest. There were less PJP patients in the IIP group (IIP-PJP) who received mechanic ventilation and admitted to ICU than the other groups except HIV-infected PJP group. However, the mortality rate was highest for the IIP-PJP group. Conclusions: CTD was the most common predisposed underlying disease for our enrolled PJP cases. Cytomegaviremia and respiratory failure were common in HIV-infected PJP patients, but the prognosis of HIV-PJP was slightly better than the others. The disease was more severe, rapidly progressive and fatal in the IIP-PJP group.

Abstract
Exosomes are a class of extracellular vesicles with diameters ranging from ~50 to 150 nm. Incorporating diverse biological substances and being present extensively in biofluids, exosomes are involved in intracellular communication in various physiological and pathological processes and emerging as promising biomarkers for the prognosis and diagnosis of many diseases. Accumulating evidence shows that exosomes also play important roles in the inflammatory and immune responses to bacterial infection. However, the study of exosomes in teleost fish remains scarce. In the present study, we focused on the exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) in the plasma of Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) in response to Vibrio harveyi infection. After bacterial challenge, the plasma was sampled at both the early (6 and 16 h) and late stages. (48, 72, and 96 h) of infection, followed by exosome isolation and exosomal miRNA sequencing. Results showed that the expression profile of 85 exosomal miRNAs was significantly different among the control, early-, and late-infection groups. The predictive genes targeted by exosomal miRNAs were extensively involved in various inflammatory and immune processes by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses, suggesting that a series of processes were regulated by exosomal miRNAs in the plasma, including the pathogen invasion and recognition and the activation and regulation of signaling pathways related to cytokine production. Moreover, the spleen was found to be a preference for exosome enrichment and the underlying mechanism of interleukin-6 production regulated by ZC3H12A, ARID5A, and exosomal ssa-miR-146a-5p were probably present in Chinese tongue sole. Additionally, the enhanced levels of ssa-miR-146a-5p and nbr-miR-731 in plasma exosomes and the spleen of the infection groups were identified, indicating their application as biomarkers in favor of the prognosis and diagnosis of V. harveyi infection in Chinese tongue sole. Therefore, the collective results in the present study indicated the pleiotropic roles of exosomal miRNAs in the regulation of inflammatory and immune responses and their potential utilization as biomarkers in teleost fish.

Abstract
Objectives: To describe the clinical characteristics of patients with autoimmune diseases associated interstitial lung diseases (AID-ILD) initially presented with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in a tertiary Chinese hospital. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 14 patients diagnosed with AID-ILD during the IPF follow-up between January 2016 and December 2021. Among the 14 enrolled AID-ILD cases, there were 13 males and 1 female, (69.71±9.07) years old (range from 55 y to 87 y). Results: Detailed clinical consultation and further laboratory analysis were performed during the follow-up when the IPF patients showed exaggerated dyspnea (7 cases), fever of unknown causes (6 cases), microscopic hematuria (5 cases), arthralgia and swelling (4 cases), arthralgia (2 cases), morning stiffness (2 cases) and renal failure (2 cases). Finally, 6 patients showed positive MPO-ANCA, one patient showed positive PR3-ANCA and 7 patients showed positive anti-CCP. During the IPF periods, 7 patients had received antifibrotic agents and 5 patients had been prescribed with N-acetylcysteine, and 1 patient had received antifibrotic agents after N-acetylcysteine. Among them, no medication was prescribed for one IPF patient. After they were diagnosed with AID-ILD, glucocorticoids and/or immunosuppressants were added for 13 of them. Thirteen of cases improved or stable after these treatments, but one didn't show significant changes. Conclusions: AID-UIP, especially ANCA-UIP, AAV-UIP or RA-UIP should be considered when the IPF patients showed fever of unknown origin, microscopic hematuria and/or arthritis related symptoms. They might benefit from the add-on glucocorticoids and/or immunosuppressants.

Abstract
Competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) are vital regulators of gene networks in mammals. The involvement of noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) as ceRNA in genotypic sex determination (GSD) and environmental sex determination (ESD) in fish is unknown. The Chinese tongue sole, which has both GSD and ESD mechanisms, was used to map the dynamic expression pattern of ncRNAs and mRNA in gonads during sex determination and differentiation. Transcript expression patterns shift during the sex differentiation phase, and ceRNA modulation occurs through crosstalk of differentially expressed long ncRNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and sex-related genes in fish. Of note was the significant up-regulation of a circRNA from the sex-determining gene dmrt1 (circular RNA dmrt1) and a lncRNA, called AMSDT (which stands for associated with male sex differentiation of tongue sole) in Chinese tongue sole testis. These two ncRNAs both share the same miRNA response elements with gsdf, which has an up-regulated expression when they bind to miRNA cse-miR-196 and concurrent down-regulated female sex-related genes to facilitate testis differentiation. This is the first demonstration in fish that ceRNA crosstalk mediated by ncRNAs modulates sexual development and unveils a novel regulatory mechanism for sex determination and differentiation.

Abstract
Maternal effector genes (MEGs) encode maternal RNA and protein, accumulating in the cytoplasm of oocytes. During oocyte development, MEGs participate in oocyte meiosis and promote oocyte development. And MEGs can also regulate maternal transcriptome stability and promote maternal–zygotic transition (MTZ) in early embryonic development. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), as new epigenetic regulators, can regulate gene expression at both the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels through cis- or trans-regulation. The oogenesis-related gene org is a germ-cell-specific gene in fish, but the role of org in embryonic development and oogenesis has rarely been studied, and the knowledge of the lncRNA-mediated regulation of org is limited. In this study, we cloned and identified the org gene of Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis), and we identified a lncRNA named lncRNA ORG-anti-sequence (ORG-AS), located at the reverse overlapping region of org. The results of qRT-PCR and FISH demonstrated that org was highly expressed during the early stages of embryonic development and oogenesis and was located in the cytoplasm of oocytes. ORG-AS was expressed at low levels in the ovary and colocalized with org in the cytoplasm of oocytes. In vitro experiments showed that overexpression of ORG-AS inhibited org expression. These results suggest that org, as a MEG in C. semilaevis, participates in the MTZ and the oogenesis. The lncRNA ORG-AS negatively regulates the gene expression of org through trans-regulation. These new findings broaden the function of MEGs in embryonic development and the oogenesis of bony fish and prove that lncRNAs are important molecular factors regulating org.

Abstract
Understanding the evolutionary history of the highly diverse ray-finned fishes has been challenging, and the development of more universal primers for phylogenetic analyses may help overcoming these challenges. We developed FishPIE, a nested PCR primer set of 82 phylogenetically informative exon markers, and tested it on 203 species from 31 orders of Actinopterygii. We combined orthologous sequences of the FishPIE markers obtained from published genomes and transcriptomes and constructed the phylogeny of 710 species belonging to 190 families and 60 orders. The resulting phylogenies had topologies comparable to previous phylogenomic studies. We demonstrated that the FishPIE markers could address phylogenetic questions across broad taxonomic levels. By incorporating the newly sequenced taxa, we were able to shed new light on the phylogeny of the highly diverse Cypriniformes. Thus, FishPIE holds great promise for generating genetic data for broad taxonomic groups and accelerating our understanding of the fish tree of life. FishPIE is a nested PCR primer set of 82 markers for fish phylogenetic analysis The markers can be broadly applied to all orders of ray-finned fishes Their phylogenetic performance is comparable to that of genomic analyses

Abstract
The diverse functions of WASP, the deficiency of which causes Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), remain poorly defined. We generated three isogenic WAS models using patient induced pluripotent stem cells and genome editing. These models recapitulated WAS phenotypes and revealed that WASP deficiency causes an upregulation of numerous RNA splicing factors and widespread altered splicing. Loss of WASP binding to splicing factor gene promoters frequently leads to aberrant epigenetic activation. WASP interacts with dozens of nuclear speckle constituents and constrains SRSF2 mobility. Using an optogenetic system, we showed that WASP forms phase-separated condensates that encompasses SRSF2, nascent RNA and active Pol II. The role of WASP in gene body condensates is corroborated by ChIPseq and RIPseq. Together our data reveal that WASP is a nexus regulator of RNA splicing that controls the transcription of splicing factors epigenetically and the dynamics of the splicing machinery through liquid-liquid phase separation.

Abstract
Objective: Our study aims to determine histological regression and clinical improvement after long-term antiviral therapy in hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis patients. Methods: Treatment-naïve chronic hepatitis B patients with histologically or clinically diagnosed liver cirrhosis were enrolled. Liver biopsies were performed after 5 years entecavir-based antiviral treatment. Patients were followed up every 6 months. Cirrhosis regression was evaluated based on Metavir system and P-I-R score. Clinical improvement was evaluated before and after the long-term treatment. Kruskal Wallis test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for continuous variables, Fisher's exact test was used for categorical variables and multivariate analysis was performed using logistic regression analysis. Results: Totals of 73 patients with HBV-related liver cirrhosis were enrolled. Among them, 30 (41.1%) patients were biopsy proved liver cirrhosis and the remaining 43 (58.9%) cirrhotic patients were diagnosed by clinical features. Based on Metavir system and P-I-R score, 72.6% (53/73) patients attained histological regression. Furthermore, 30.1% (22/73) were defined as significant regression (Metavir decrease ≥2 stage), 42.5% (31/73) were mild regression (Metavir decrease 1 stage or predominantly regressive by P-I-R system if still cirrhosis after treatment) and 27.4% (20/73) were the non-regression. Compared to levels of clinical characteristics at baseline, HBV DNA, ALT, AST, liver stiffness(decreased from 12.7 to 6.4 kPa in significant regression, from 18.1 to 7.3 kPa in mild regression and from 21.4 to 11.2 kPa in non-regression)and Ishak-HAI score significantly decreased after 5 years of anti-HBV treatment, while serum levels of platelets and albumin improved remarkably (P<0.05). In multivariate analysis, only the pre-treatment liver stiffness level was associated with significant regression (OR=0.887, 95%CI: 0.802-0.981, P=0.020). Conclusions: After long-term antiviral therapy, patients with HBV-related cirrhosis are easily to attain improvements in clinical parameters, while a certain percentage of these patients still cannot achieve histological reversal.

Abstract
Simple Summary Limited understanding of molecular mechanisms of immune response constrains marine fish farming. Analyzing the dynamic gene expression profile of fish in response to pathogen infection is gaining interest. We analyzed the expression changes of the Chinese tongue sole kidney after Vibrio harveyi infection with a series of transcriptome data. Notably, we observed rapid up-regulation of IL-17, TNF and TLR signaling pathways, indicating treatment measures should be taken in the early stage after infection. We also found a close connection between the immune system and neuroendocrine system, which may be the new strategy to improve immune function. Our research provides insights into disease prevention and treatment in fish farming. Abstract Pathogenic infection of fishes is an important constraining factor affecting marine aquaculture. Insufficient understanding of the molecular mechanisms has affected the diagnosis and corresponding treatment. Here, we reported the dynamic changes of gene expression patterns in the Chinese tongue sole kidney at 16 h, 48 h, 72 h and 96 h after Vibrio harveyi infection. In total, 366, 214, 115 and 238 differentially expressed genes were obtained from the 16 h−vs. −C, 48 h−vs. −C, 72 h−vs. −C and 96 h−vs. −C group comparisons, respectively. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed rapid up-regulation of several immune-related pathways, including IL-17, TNF and TLR signaling pathway. More importantly, time-series analyses of transcriptome showed that immune genes were specifically up-regulated in a short period of time and then decreased. The expression levels of chemokines increased after infection and reached a peak at 16 h. Specifically, Jak-STAT signaling pathway played a crucial role in the regulation during Vibrio harveyi infection. In the later stages of infection, genes in the neuroendocrine pathway, such as glucocorticoid-related genes, were activated in the kidney, indicating a close connection between the immune system and neuroendocrine system. Our dynamic transcriptome analyses provided profound insight into the gene expression profile and investigation of immunogenetic mechanisms of Chinese tongue sole.

Abstract
Mammals have limited regenerative capacity, whereas some vertebrates, like fish and salamanders, are able to regenerate their organs efficiently. The regeneration in these species depends on cell dedifferentiation followed by proliferation. We generate a mouse model that enables the inducible expression of the four Yamanaka factors (Oct-3/4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc, or 4F) specifically in hepatocytes. Transient in vivo 4F expression induces partial reprogramming of adult hepatocytes to a progenitor state and concomitantly increases cell proliferation. This is indicated by reduced expression of differentiated hepatic-lineage markers, an increase in markers of proliferation and chromatin modifiers, global changes in DNA accessibility, and an acquisition of liver stem and progenitor cell markers. Functionally, short-term expression of 4F enhances liver regenerative capacity through topoisomerase2-mediated partial reprogramming. Our results reveal that liver-specific 4F expression in vivo induces cellular plasticity and counteracts liver failure, suggesting that partial reprogramming may represent an avenue for enhancing tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) has been speculated to induce mineralization, but there has been no convincing evidence of its ability to induce intrafibrillar mineralization. Polymers play a critical role in biomimetic mineralization as stabilizers/inducers of amorphous precursors. Hence, MDP-induced biomimetic mineralization without polymer additives has not been fully verified or elucidated. By combining 3-dimensional stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy, surface zeta potentials, contact angle measurements, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with circular dichroism, we show that amphiphilic MDP can not only demineralize dentin by releasing protons as an acidic functional monomer but also infiltrate collagen fibrils (including dentin collagen), unwind the triple helical structure by breaking hydrogen bonds, and finally immobilize within collagen. MDP-bound collagen functions as a huge collagenous phosphoprotein (HCPP), in contrast to chemical phosphorylation modifications. HCPP can induce biomimetic mineralization itself without polymer additives by alternatively attracting calcium and phosphate through electrostatic attraction. Therefore, we herein propose the dual functions of amphiphilic MDP monomer with de- and remineralizing ability. MDP in the free state can demineralize dentin substrates by releasing protons, whereas MDP in the collagen-bound state as HCPP can induce intrafibrillar mineralization. The dual functions of MDP monomer with de- and remineralization properties might create a new epoch in adhesive dentistry and preventive dentistry.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in regulated gene expression and miRNA biogenesis is also subject to regulation, together constituting critical regulatory circuitries in numerous physiological and pathological processes. As a dsRNA binding protein, interleukin enhancer binding factor 3 (ILF3) has been implicated as a negative regulator in miRNA biogenesis, but the mechanism and specificity have remained undefined. Here, combining small-RNA-seq and CLIP-seq, we showed that ILF3 directly represses many miRNAs or perhaps other types of small RNAs annotated in both miRBase and MirGeneDB. We demonstrated that ILF3 preferentially binds to A/U-enriched motifs, which tend to lengthen and/or stabilize the stem-loop in pri-miRNAs, thereby effectively competing with the Microprocessor to block miRNA biogenesis. Focusing on the biological function of ILF3-suppressed miR-582-3p, we discovered that this LINE-derived miRNA targets a critical interferon-inducible gene RIG-I for repression, thus establishing a novel ILF3/miR-582/RIG-I axis in the antiviral response.

Abstract
Oogenesis is a highly orchestrated process that depends on regulation by autocrine/paracrine hormones and growth factors. However, many details of the molecular mechanisms that regulate fish oogenesis remain elusive. Here, we performed a single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of the molecular signatures of distinct ovarian cell categories in adult Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis). We characterized the successive stepwise development of three germ cell subtypes. Notably, we identified the cellular composition of fish follicle walls, including four granulosa cell types and one theca cell type, and we proposed important transcription factors (TFs) showing high activity in the regulation of cell identity. Moreover, we found that the extensive niche–germline bidirectional communications regulate fish oogenesis, whereas ovulation in fish is accompanied by the coordination of simultaneous and tightly sequential processes across different granulosa cells. Additionally, a systems biology analysis of the homologous genes shared by Chinese tongue sole and macaques revealed remarkably conserved biological processes in germ cells and granulosa cells across vertebrates. Our results provide key insights into the cell-type-specific mechanisms underlying fish oogenesis at a single-cell resolution, which offers important clues for exploring fish breeding mechanisms and the evolution of vertebrate reproductive systems.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics of sarcoidosis patients with arrhythmia as the primary or main manifestation. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of arrhythmia-onset sarcoidosis cases between January 2017 and December 2020. Their clinical manifestations, radiological features, treatment and prognosis were reviewed and analyzed. Results: This study consisted of 3 females and 1 male, with a mean age of 51 years (range from 42 to 58 years old). Arrhythmia was the first or main clinical manifestation for all 4 cases, involving Ⅲ° atrioventricular block (AVB) (n=1), Ⅱ° type Ⅱ AVB (n=1), and frequent ventricular premature beats and short array ventricular tachycardia (n=2). Three cases were diagnosed with respiratory sarcoidosis simultaneously during the diagnostic evaluation for arrhythmia. One case was diagnosed with sarcoidosis because of abnormal chest CT images due to cervical lymph node enlargement 5 years after arrhythmia. All 4 cases were confirmed as presenting epithelioid cell granulomatous inflammation by bronchoscopic biopsies. Late gadolinium enhancement with cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) imaging was arranged for two cases. Both of them had typical imaging findings of cardiac sarcoidosis. Three cases were confirmed of cardiac involvement through positron emission computed tomography (PET)-CT. None of the enrolled four cases were arranged with endomyocardial biopsy. All four cases were improved with oral corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and anti-arrhythmic medications. Two cases underwent cardiac pacemaker implantation. Conclusions: The possibility of cardiac sarcoidosis should be considered in middle-aged and elderly patients with unexplained high-degree AVB or ventricular arrhythmia. Chest CT is recommended for routine screening for those cases. LGE-CMR and/or PET-CT is recommended for them to confirm the diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis. Corticosteroids and immunosuppressants are effective for these patients.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and lethal primary malignant brain tumor, containing GBM stem cells (GSCs) that contribute to therapeutic resistance and relapse. Exposing potential GSC vulnerabilities may provide therapeutic strategies against GBM. Here, we interrogated the role of Adenosine-to-Inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing mediated by ADAR1 (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1) in GSCs and found that both ADAR1 and global RNA editomes were elevated in GSCs compared to normal neural stem cells (NSCs). ADAR1 inactivation or blocking the upstream JAK/STAT pathway through TYK2 inhibition impaired GSC self-renewal and stemness. Downstream of ADAR1, RNA editing of the 3'UTR of GM2A, a key ganglioside catabolism activator, proved to be critical, as interfering with ganglioside catabolism showed similar functional impact on GSCs as ADAR1 disruption. These findings reveal RNA editing links ganglioside catabolism to GSC self-renewal and stemness, exposing a potential vulnerability of GBM for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) is a pelagic marine piscivore with a circumglobal distribution. It is particularly suitable for open ocean aquaculture owing to its large body size, fast swimming, rapid growth, and high economic value. A high-precision genome is of great significance for future genetic breeding research and large-scale aquaculture in the open ocean. PacBio, Illumina, and Hi-C data were combined to assemble chromosome-level reference genome with the size of 648.34 Mb (contig N50: 28.52 Mb). 175 contigs was anchored onto 24 chromosomes with lengths ranging from 12.28 to 34.59 Mb, and 99.79% of the whole genome sequence was covered. The BUSCOs of genome and gene were 94.20 and 95.70%, respectively. Gene families associated with adaptive behaviors, such as olfactory receptors and HSP70 gene families, expanded in the genome of S. lalandi. An analysis of selection pressure revealed 652 fast-evolving genes, among which mkxb, popdc2, dlx6, and ifitm5 may be related to rapid growth traits. The data generated in this study provide a valuable resource for understanding the genetic basis of S. lalandi traits.

Abstract
The Jinjiang oyster Crassostrea ariakensis, naturally distributing in estuarine regions with low salinity, is an important economic and ecological species in China. However, studies on its genomics and population genetics remain lacking. Here, we assembled the chromosome-level genome of a female C. ariakensis and re-sequenced 261 individuals from five locations in China representing three typical habitats. The C. ariakensis genome was 662.9 Mb with contig N50 length of 5.9 Mb using PacBio HiFi-CCS long reads, and 99.83% sequences were anchored onto 10 pseudochromosomes using Hi-C data. A total of 26,354 protein-coding genes were predicted. We identified three significantly expanded gene families which are closely associated with osmotic pressure regulation, including CDO, SLC13 and SDR. Population structure analysis revealed that the C. ariakensis from five locations were clustered into three typical groups (northern, southern and Shanghai) (K = 3) and their phylogenetic relationship was consistently correlated to their geographical distribution. Furtherly, the differentiation between northern and southern groups was clearly demonstrated by estimated population differentiation coefficient (FST = 0.1154), and the PSMC distribution showed the two groups of effective population size separated at 0.1 Ma. Meanwhile gene flow from southern to Shanghai was detected. Selective sweep analysis between northern and southern group detected genes associated with heat response and salinity adaptation. This study could provide valuable genomic resources and information for further research on the molecular evolution, genetic breeding, biological function and evolutionary adaptation of C. ariakensis.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) contribute to gonadal development in animals. However, there is little information about miRNA regulation function involved in gonadal development in fish. Our group previously identified sex-related miRNAs of Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) during sex determination and differentiation by small RNA sequencing. In the present study, we characterized ssa-mir-196a-4 and its expression in testis and verified its interaction with lgr8. miRNA ssa-mir-196a-4 precursor was predicted to have a typical hairpin structure and highly conserved among various fish species. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) of ssa-mir-196a-4 in the testis of Chinese tongue sole showed that it is mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of Sertoli cells. We determined that ssa-mir-196a-4 interacted with lgr8 by bioinformatics analysis using miRanda software. According to the dual-luciferase gene reporter assay, lgr8 is a direct target of ssa-mir-196a-4. Overexpression of ssa-mir-196a-4 in the cells of the testis cell line of Chinese tongue sole decreased the expression levels of lgr8 messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein by targeting its coding sequence (CDS) region. These results suggest that ssa-mir-196a-4 acts as a post-transcriptional regulator of lgr8 and plays an important role in developing testes of Chinese tongue sole.

Abstract
The maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a crucial event in embryo development. While the features of the MZT across species are shared, the stage of this transition is different among species. We characterized MZT in a flatfish species, Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). In this study, we analyzed the 551.57 GB transcriptome data of two types of gametes (sperms and eggs) and 10 embryo developmental stages in Japanese flounder. We identified 2512 maternal factor-related genes and found that most of those maternal factor-related genes expression decreased at the low blastula (LB) stage and remained silent in the subsequent embryonic development period. Meanwhile, we verified that the zygotic genome transcription might occur at the 128-cell stage and large-scale transcription began at the LB stage, which indicates the LB stage is the major wave zygotic genome activation (ZGA) occurs. In addition, we indicated that the Wnt signaling pathway, playing a diverse role in embryonic development, was involved in the ZGA and the axis formation. The results reported the list of the maternal genes in Japanese flounder and defined the stage of MZT, contributing to the understanding of the details of MZT during Japanese flounder embryonic development.

Abstract
Global warming results in high temperature stress (HTS), which presents severe challenges worldwide for modern agricultural production and will have significant impacts on the yield and quality of crops. Accumulation of photosynthetic products, activity of enzymes involved in sucrose-starch metabolism, phytohormone levels and metabolic profiling using LC-MS were analysed in the flag leaves and/or developing grains subjected to HTS during the grain-filling stage of an indica rice. HTS induced significant yield loss and reduced the grain quality, with lower amylose content. HTS reduced photosynthetic product accumulation in flag leaves and reduced starch accumulation in developing grains, compared to growth under normal temperatures. The activity of enzymes related to sucrose-starch metabolism were dis-regulated in developing grains grown under high temperature (HT). Moreover, phytohormone homeostasis in flag leaves and developing grains was also dramatically disturbed by HT. Metabolic profiling detected many metabolites with remarkably different relative fold abundances at different time points in the developing grain at HT versus normal temperatures, these metabolites were enriched in several HTS response pathways. The change in phytohormone ratio and auxin level might be associated with the reduction in photosynthetic products and their translocation, and ultimately with reduced starch accumulation in the developing grain. The detected metabolites might have different roles in response to the HTS in developing grain at different development stages. These results provide a theoretical reference and basis for future rice production towards higher quality and yield when grown under HTS.

Abstract
Simple Summary Aberrant alternative splicing (AS) regulation plays a pivotal role in breast cancer development, progression, and resistance to therapeutical interventions. Indeed, cancer cells can adapt their own transcriptome by changing different AS programs, thus generating cancer-specific AS isoforms involved in every hallmark of cancer. Here, we investigated global AS errors occurring in human breast cancer cells by using RNA-mediated oligonucleotide annealing, selection, and ligation coupled with next-generation sequencing. Our results identified several dysregulated AS events potentially relevant for breast cancer-related biological processes and that provide a better comprehension of the molecular mechanisms that orchestrate the malignant transformation. Abstract Breast cancer is the most frequently occurred cancer type and the second cause of death in women worldwide. Alternative splicing (AS) is the process that generates more than one mRNA isoform from a single gene, and it plays a major role in expanding the human protein diversity. Aberrant AS contributes to breast cancer metastasis and resistance to chemotherapeutic interventions. Therefore, identifying cancer-specific isoforms is the prerequisite for therapeutic interventions intended to correct aberrantly expressed AS events. Here, we performed RNA-mediated oligonucleotide annealing, selection, and ligation coupled with next-generation sequencing (RASL-seq) in breast cancer cells, to identify global breast cancer-specific AS defects. By RT-PCR validation, we demonstrate the high accuracy of RASL-seq results. In addition, we analyzed identified AS events using the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database in a large number of non-pathological and breast tumor specimens and validated them in normal and breast cancer samples. Interestingly, aberrantly regulated AS cassette exons in cancer tissues do not encode for known functional domains but instead encode for amino acids constituting regions of intrinsically disordered protein portions characterized by high flexibility and prone to be subjected to post-translational modifications. Collectively, our results reveal novel AS errors occurring in human breast cancer, potentially affecting breast cancer-related biological processes.
