Long-term hypoxia and reoxygenation induced oxidative stress lead to immunosuppression and apoptosis in golden pompano (Trachinotus blochii) - Yue Gu; Jun Long Sun; Fu Cheng Yao; Tian Jiang; Chun Xiu Jin; Li Ping Shi; Shu Kui Sun; Fei Biao Song; Jian Luo (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The fluctuations of dissolved oxygen (DO) often lead to hypoxia in aquaculture, which has a huge adverse impact on fish. This study mainly investigated the effects of long-term hypoxia on oxidative stress, immune response, and cell apoptosis in the liver of golden pompano ( Trachinotus blochii ), which is not tolerant to hypoxia. So we conducted a 14 day low oxygen stress experiment on the golden pompano with a DO of 3.0 ± 0.2 mg/L, then restore the DO to normal levels and continue the 14 day reoxygenation experiment. Results showed that hypoxia and reoxygenation led to significant changes in liver structure. During hypoxia and reoxygenation, the expression of oxidative stress related genes ( SOD1 , SOD2 , GSH-Px , and CAT ) and levels of antioxidant enzymes (CAT and MDA) in the liver were increased. Liver lysozyme activity and the relative expression of the pro-inflammatory factors interleukin ( IL)-1β were significantly increased, but the expression of IL-34 was down-regulated during hypoxia. The expression of IL-12β was significantly increased during reoxygenation. The expression of anti-inflammatory factor IL -11 was decreased duringreoxygenation. The expression of toll like receptors ( TLRs ) -7, -8, and -9 increases after hypoxia and decreases after reoxygenation, indicating that both hypoxia and reoxygenation affect the immune response. In addition, during hypoxia and reoxygenation, TUNEL-positive signals increased, the bcl2/bax ratio decreased, the expression levels of caspases-3 and -8 were significantly up-regulated during hypoxia, and expression levels of caspases-9 was up-regulated during reoxygenation. In summary, hypoxia and reoxygenation can cause oxidative stress, induce inflammatory reactions, inhibit immune processes, activate apoptosis, and lead to liver damage of the golden pompano, which may be irreversible.

RETRACTED ARTICLE: MiR-125 family improves the radiosensitivity of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma - Qi-Wei Wang; Ya-Nan Sun; Li-Jun Tan; Jian-Nan Zhao; Xiao-Jie Zhou; Tian-Jiao Yu; Jiang-Tao Liu (Molecular Biology Reports, 2023)
Background MiRNAs can affect the radiosensitization of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). We aimed to analyze the function of miR-125 family members in HNSCC using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and determine their effect on radiation in laryngeal squamous cell cancer (LSCC). Methods First, we systematically analyzed the role of the miR-125 family in HNSCC using the TCGA database and found that miR-125a-5p is associated with radiotherapy. We then performed comprehensive enrichment analysis of miR-125a-5p and predicted target genes. Then, we performed transfection, cell proliferation assays, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, apoptosis assays, micronucleus tests, and western blotting on hep-2 cells selected with puromycin. Results MiR-125 family members exhibited significantly different expression in HNSCC. They were significantly associated with tumor–node–metastasis staging, clinical stages, and histological grades. Radiation therapy had a statistically effect on miR-125 family members, except miR-125a-3p. Moreover, miR-125a-5p was related to overall survival in LSCC. Thus, we predicted 110 target genes and seven hub genes of miR-125a-5p. The proliferation rate of cells transfected with lentivirus vector expressing miR-125a-5p was significantly reduced compared to the other groups. The radiation effect was enhanced in cells transfected with miR-125a-5p. The ratio of apoptotic cells transfected and exposed to X-rays (10 Gy) was distinctly higher than that of the Ad-control group. Western blotting analysis revealed that miR-125a-5p upregulated the apoptotic regulators P53 and rH2AX. Thus, miR-125a-5p may increase radiosensitivity in LSCC via upregulation of pro-apoptotic genes. Conclusions MiR-125 family members could be prognostic biomarkers of HNSCC and improve HNSCC sensitivity to radiotherapy by activating P53. Upregulating miR-125a-5p via lentivirus vectors may be a novel strategy to strengthen the effect of radiotherapy on LSCC.

Carp stocking and climate change are potentially more important factors than nutrient enrichment driving water quality deterioration in subtropical freshwater lakes in China - Haojie Su; Jianfeng Chen; Yun Li; Qingyang Rao; Congqiang Luo; Xuwei Deng; Hong Shen; Renhui Li; Jun Chen; Yuanfeng Sun; Jiamin Pan; Suhui Ma; et al. (Limnology and Oceanography, 2023)
Freshwater lakes across the world have undergone dramatic changes in biological components and water quality over the past several decades. Previous studies focused on potential drivers mainly on nutrient enrichment in the catchment. However, the relative importance of climate change and the top‐down cascade effects of fish stocking on water quality is not fully understood. Here, by compiling 155 lakes data with four periods of field investigation in subtropical lakes in China, we found no significant changes in water total nitrogen and total phosphorus in the past two decades. However, the phytoplankton abundance increased significantly, and the water clarity declined by 44.1%. We further found that carp stocking and climate change are potentially more important than nutrients driving water quality change, which is also evidenced in two lakes (Lake Donghu and Qiandao) with long‐term monitoring histories. Specifically, carp stocking can decrease the water clarity directly by stirring up sediment and indirectly by trophic cascade along the food web. For climatic factors, mean annual temperature (MAT) has a positive effect on phytoplankton abundance, while mean annual precipitation has a negative one, with climates overall having little effect on water clarity. In addition, nutrient enrichment and climate change also have strong interactions with carp stocking, which may enhance the top‐down effects on water quality. Our findings highlight that either MAT or carp stocking may become an overwhelming driver of water clarity decline, which provides new insights into the conservation strategy for water quality management in the subtropical lakes in China.

Catillopecten is a small genus of deep-sea glass scallops, but its diversity is poorly known in many parts of the world ocean. We described C. margaritatus n. sp. (Pectinoidea: Propeamussiidae), and performed morphological analyses and DNA sequencing, and estimated the divergence time of scallops based on samples collected from Haima cold seep in the South China Sea. Morphologically, the new species can be distinguished from congeneric species by its large shell size, relatively small auricle length, absence of monocrystal aerials, presence of longitudinal radial ridges on the left valve, and the alternated rounded striae and distal and proximal growth lines of prisms on the right valve. Anatomically, this new species can be distinguished from C. vulcani by its anteriorly located auriculate gills, compared to the centrally located lamellar gills of the latter, and the different locations of the pericardium. Sequence comparison and phylogenetic analysis based on the 18S rRNA fragments supported the placement of the new species in Catillopecten . We also report the mitogenome of C. margaritatus n. sp. as the only reported mitogenome of the family Propeamussiidae, which differs from those of other scallops substantially in gene order arrangement. Divergence time estimation revealed that Propeamussiidae and Pectinidae diverged in the early Carboniferous, while Catillopecten and Parvamussium diverged during the late Cretaceous to early Eocene. Finally, we presented a key to the species of Catillopecten .

Loss-of-Function of xpc Sensitizes Zebrafish to Ultraviolet Irradiation - Kai Liu; Zhaoxiang Sun; Chun Yang; Li Jan Lo; Jun Chen (Fishes, 2023)
Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) protein recognizes bulky DNA adducts to initiate global genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER). Humans carrying germline mutations in the XPC gene display strong susceptibility to skin and certain internal cancers. In addition to its role in NER, recent studies have indicated that XPC is also involved in other DNA damage repair pathways and transcription regulation. In this report, we generated a zebrafish xpc knockout mutant. Zebrafish xpc−/− mutant fish develop relative normally and are fertile. However, the mutant embryos were more sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Upon UV irradiation, compared with the wild type embryos, mutant embryos accumulated significantly higher levels of unrepaired DNA damages and apoptotic cells, which led to more severe abnormal development. Transcriptome analysis showed that the p53 signal pathway and apoptosis were enriched in the over upregulated genes in UV-irradiated mutant embryos, suggesting that high levels of unrepaired DNA lesions activated p53 to trigger apoptotic activity in mutant embryos. More interestingly, up to 972 genes in the untreated mutant embryos were differentially expressed, compared with those in the untreated WT. Among these differentially expressed genes (DEGs), 379 genes did not respond to UV irradiation, indicating that Xpc plays a role in addition of DNA damage repair. Our results demonstrate that Xpc is an evolutionally conserved factor in NER repair. Zebrafish xpc−/− mutant also provides a platform to study other functions of Xpc beyond the DNA damage repair.

Examining iron (Fe) speciation in marine sediments is critical to understand Fe and carbon biogeochemical cycling in polar regions. In this study, we investigated the speciation of Fe in sediments from Prydz Bay and the adjacent Southern Ocean, and examined the factors controlling Fe speciation and its relationship with total organic carbon (TOC). Our results reveal that unreactive silicate Fe (Fe U ) is the dominant pool of total Fe (Fe T ), followed by poorly reactive sheet silicate Fe (Fe PRS ), reducible crystalline Fe oxides (Fe ox2 ), easily reducible amorphous/poorly crystalline Fe oxides (Fe ox1 ), and magnetite (Fe mag ), with carbonate-associated ferrous Fe (Fe carb ) being the smallest pool. The highly reactive Fe (Fe HR )/Fe T ratios (0.13 ± 0.06) in our study area are among the lowest end-member globally, primarily due to weak bedrock weathering and slow glacier melting. The Fe ox1 /Fe T ratios are similar to those in continental shelf and marginal seas containing highly weathered materials, while the Fe ox2 /Fe T ratios are significantly lower. This result implicates that low temperature inhibits the aging of iceberg melting-sourced Fe ox1 potentially, and accordingly the regulation of weathering on the Fe HR /Fe T ratio is mainly reflected in Fe ox2 /Fe T ratio. There are no significant correlations between TOC and Fe HR , Fe carb , Fe ox1 or Fe ox2 in the research region. Four distinct patterns of TOC/Fe HR ratio can be discerned by summarizing the global data set: (a) high TOC/Fe HR ratios (> 2.5) are likely the result of high marine primary productivity and low chemically weathered source materials; (b) low TOC/Fe HR ratios (< 0.6) are caused by high rates of Fe HR inputs and OC remineralization; (c) mid-range TOC/Fe HR ratios (0.6 – 2.5) typical of most river particulates and marginal sea sediments indicate the same Fe HR and OC sources and/or interactions between each other; (d) both low TOC and Fe HR content is the result of low marine primary productivity and weak chemical weathering. Our findings provide new insights into the relationship between Fe HR and TOC in polar sediments.

Air-Backed Aluminum Shells Subjected to Underwater Penetration: Torpedo Interception Simulations - Chucai Peng; Chufan Ding; Bin Chen; Xichen Sun; Weibing Li; Taotao Qin; Jun Feng (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Underwater torpedoes have become a serious threat to ocean liners and warships, and the interception against attacking torpedoes is always the hotspot in marine engineering. To simulate the underwater torpedo interception by a high velocity projectile, this work numerically deals with the process of projectile water entry and sequent penetration into underwater aluminum shells, whereby conical and ogival nose projectiles are comparatively studied. With the arbitrary Lagrange–Euler (ALE) algorithm adopted to describe fluid medium, the projectile water entry model is developed and validated against the test data. Similarly, the penetration model validation is made by modeling a tungsten ball perforation on an aluminum plate. Covered by water fluid, the air-backed aluminum shell is utilized to simulate an underwater torpedo subjected to projectile impact. The numerical predictions of underwater penetration reveal that ogival nose projectiles have a superior performance in underwater motion and perforation while conical nose counterparts deteriorate the shell targets more severely. For 20 cm, 40 cm and 60 cm underwater depth scenarios, a numerical prediction suggests that the energy consumed by water is proportional to the water depth, meanwhile aluminum shell perforation absorbs almost the identical projectile kinetic energy. Such findings may shed some light on the nose shape optimization design of high velocity projectile intercepting underwater torpedoes.

Biomass prediction method of nuclear power cold source disaster based on deep learning - Jianling Huo; Chao Li; SongTang Liu; Lei Sun; Lei Yang; Yuze Song; Jun Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Given the insufficient early warning capacity of nuclear cold source biological disasters, this paper explores prediction methods for biomass caused by nuclear cold source disasters based on deep learning. This paper also uses the correlation analysis method to determine the main environmental factors. The adaptive particle swarm optimization method was used to optimize the depth confidence network model of the Gaussian continuous constrained Boltzmann machine (APSO-CRBM-DBN). To train the model, the marine environmental factors were used as the main input factors and the biomass after a period of time was used as the output for training. Optimal prediction results were obtained, and thus, the prediction model of biomass caused by the nuclear cold source disaster was established. The model provides an accurate scientific basis for the early warning of cold source disasters in nuclear power plants and has important practical significance for solving the problem of biological blockage at the inlet of cold source water in nuclear power plants.

Review on the Antiviral Organic Agents against Fish Rhabdoviruses - Shuang-Shuang Sun; Shi-Wei Ma; Jun Li; Qin Zhang; Guang-Zhou Zhou (Fishes, 2023)
Fish rhabdoviruses are harmful single-stranded RNA viruses with high mortality rates which cause considerable economic losses in aquaculture. It is imperative to explore and develop new antiviral compounds against them. In recent years, in addition to inorganic antiviral substances, more than 50 different organic compounds have been confirmed to be effective in the prevention and treatment of rhabdovirus infection and its dissemination in fish. The main types of extracts or agents and their trial designs are here considered for review. This review reveals the reported antiviral activities of extracts from organisms, proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, coumarin derivatives, arctigenin derivatives, and other antiviral organic molecules against fish rhabdoviruses, respectively. Additionally, their antiviral mechanisms of action include direct virucidal effects, inhibiting virus-induced host cell apoptosis, the blocking of the viral replication cycle, affecting gene expression and innate antiviral immune responses, and so on. This review also gives perspectives on how to comprehensively explore the potential applications of the candidate molecules, which lay the foundation for the future development of new compounds or strategies for the prevention and control of fish rhabdoviruses in aquaculture.

The lytic bacteriophage JC01 was isolated using a strain of Cronobacter sakazakii previously isolated from powdered infant formula (PIF). The complete genome sequence of phage JC01 was determined. The double-stranded DNA genome of phage JC01 is composed of 61,736 bp with a G + C content of 58.9%, and it contains 76 putative open reading frames (ORFs) without any tRNA genes. The predicted ORFs were classified into functional groups, including DNA manipulation, transcription, phage packaging, phage structure, host lysis, and hypothetical proteins. Based on overall nucleotide sequence comparisons, calculation of phage intergenomic similarities, and phylogenetic analysis, JC01 appears to be a novel bacteriophage infecting C. sakazakii .

Speed Optimization of Container Ship Considering Route Segmentation and Weather Data Loading: Turning Point-Time Segmentation Method - Xiaohe Li; Baozhi Sun; Jianhai Jin; Jun Ding (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
As one of the ship energy efficiency optimization measures with the most energy saving and emission reduction potential, ship speed optimization has been recommended by the International Maritime Organization. In ship speed optimization, considering the influence of weather conditions, route segmentation and weather data loading methods significantly affect the reliability of speed optimization results. Therefore, taking the ocean-going container ship as the research object, on the basis of constructing the main engine fuel consumption prediction model and shaft speed prediction model based on machine learning methods, a route segmentation and weather loading-speed optimization iterative algorithm is proposed in this study. Single-objective speed optimization research is then conducted based on the algorithm. The research results show that the proposed algorithm effectively reduces the difference between optimized fuel consumption and actual fuel consumption, and can achieve a fuel-saving rate between 2.1% and 5.2%. This study achieves an accurate and reliable prediction of ship fuel consumption and shaft speed, and solves the strong coupling problem between route segmentation, weather loading, and speed optimization by iterative optimization of ship speed. The proposed algorithm provides strong technical support for ships to achieve the goal of energy saving and emission reduction.

Soybean genetic resources contributing to sustainable protein production - Bingfu Guo; Liping Sun; Siqi Jiang; Honglei Ren; Rujian Sun; Zhongyan Wei; Huilong Hong; Xiaoyan Luan; Jun Wang; Xiaobo Wang; Donghe Xu; Wenbin Li; et al. (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2022)
Key message Genetic resources contributes to the sustainable protein production in soybean. Abstract Soybean is an important crop for food, oil, and forage and is the main source of edible vegetable oil and vegetable protein. It plays an important role in maintaining balanced dietary nutrients for human health. The soybean protein content is a quantitative trait mainly controlled by gene additive effects and is usually negatively correlated with agronomic traits such as the oil content and yield. The selection of soybean varieties with high protein content and high yield to secure sustainable protein production is one of the difficulties in soybean breeding. The abundant genetic variation of soybean germplasm resources is the basis for overcoming the obstacles in breeding for soybean varieties with high yield and high protein content. Soybean has been cultivated for more than 5000 years and has spread from China to other parts of the world.

Sexual size dimorphism in golden pompano (Trachinotus blochii): Potential roles of changes in energy allocation and differences in muscle metabolism - Jun Long Sun; Fei Biao Song; Lei Wang; Wei Wei Zhang; You Ming Chen; Li Zhou; Jian Fang Gui; Jian Luo (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Golden pompano ( Trachinotus blochii ) is becoming increasingly popular and produces high yields, but the growth differences between males and females are a concern. In this study, the differences between the growth of males and females were compared, and the transcriptome analysis of muscle tissues was performed. A significant difference between the growth of males and females was observed; females were found to be 17% larger than males after reaching 7 months of age. Gonadal histological analysis revealed that the ovaries were arrested in 7- to 9-month-old golden pompano, whereas the testes continued to develop. The AMPK and adipocytokine signaling pathways were also found to be involved in the regulation of muscle growth and metabolism. After reaching 7 months of age, the expression levels of glut1 , glut4 , ldh , gys, acsl and cpt2 in the muscle of females were lower than those in males, but the hk gene, which is involved in glycolysis, was found to remain highly expressed in females. Additionally, in females, the synthesis of arginine and ornithine and the production of carnosine were found to be inhibited, but the breakdown of glutamine was found to be enhanced and OXPHOS ability was found to be stronger in females after reaching 7 months of age. These results support a certain negative correlation between gonadal development and muscle metabolism depending on differences in energy distribution. Clearly, the faster growth in females after reaching 7 months of age was found to be associated with the more active metabolism of glucose, and amino acids, as well as stronger oxidative phosphorylation levels.

IGFBP2 function as a novel biomarker for active lupus nephritis - Hui Li; Jun Liang; Yingying Gao; Min Liu; Nan Xia; Wei Kong; Lisha Zheng; Yikun Zhang; Zutong Li; Hongwei Chen; Shanshan Liu; Lingyun Sun (Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2022)
In search for new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of lupus nephritis (LN), we employed TMT-liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (TMT-LC–MS/MS) combined with RNA-seq and identified a panel of proteins that was dysregulated both at protein level and mRNA level in active LN patients compared with healthy controls. We chose to study the role of IGFBP2 since it is a relatively understudied protein in the context of LN. We further validated that IGFBP2 significantly increased and correlated with SLE activity index in active LN patients. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve suggested that plasma IGFBP2 had a high diagnostic efficiency for distinguishing between inactive and active LN patients (AUC = 0.992; 95% CI = 0.974–1.000; P < 0.001). We demonstrated neutralizing IGFBP2-downregulated CD4 + T cell activation, upregulated the ratio of Treg, downregulated AKT/mTOR/4E-BP1 pathway, and significantly improved nephritis in MRL/lpr mice. In all, our work demonstrated IGFBP2 as a biomarker specific for active LN and blocking IGFBP2 could be a new target for treating LN. Key messages Plasma IGFBP2 is a promising diagnostic marker for distinguishing stable LN from active LN, and it is also a predictor for the poor prognosis of LN. Blockade of IGFBP2 can significantly improve the pathological damage of LN. IGFBP2 may regulate activation of CD4 + T and Treg ratio. Neutralizing IGFBP2 downregulates AKT/mTOR/4E-BP1 pathway.

Study on the seasonal variations of dimethyl sulfide, its precursors and their impact factors in the Bohai Sea and North Yellow Sea - Yu Guo; Liying Peng; Zishi Liu; Xiaoting Fu; Guicheng Zhang; Ting Gu; Danyang Li; Jun Sun (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is one of the most important volatile biogenic sulfur compounds and plays a significant role in global climate change. Studying the seasonal variations and the environmental factors that affect the concentration of DMS would aid in understanding the biogeochemical cycle of sulfur compounds. Using benzene-assisted photoionization positive ion mobility spectrometry (BAPI-PIMS), the seasonal distribution and the key impact factors of DMS and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) in the Bohai Sea and North Yellow Sea were investigated in the summer and autumn of 2019. The concentrations of DMS and its precursors, DMSPp and DMSPd, in the surface seawater were 0.11–23.90, 0.67–41.38, and 0.03–12.28 nmol/L, respectively, in summer, and 0.10–20.79, 0.39–13.51, and 0.18–20.58 nmol/L, respectively, in autumn. The air-to-sea exchange flux of DMS was 43.05 ± 44.52 and 34.06 ± 63.38 μmol/(m·d), respectively, in summer and autumn. The results demonstrated that the temperature was the most dominant environmental factor, and the abundance of dinoflagellates was the most dominant biological factor that affected the distribution of DMS and DMSP in summer. The abundance of diatoms was the most dominant biological factor, and the levels of PO 4 3- , NO 2 - , NO 3 - , and SiO 3 2- were the dominant environmental factors that affected the distribution of DMS and DMSP in autumn. These results of this study would be of great significance in understanding the biochemical cycle of DMS in BS and NYS.

Spatiotemporal variation of precipitation on a global scale from 1960 to 2016 in a new normalized daily precipitation dataset - Jun Liu; Dongyou Wu; Yue Li; Hongli Ren; Yongtao Zhao; Xiaoyu Sun; Haitao Zhang; Mingxia Ji (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
Increases in total and extreme precipitation have been investigated worldwide using limited spatiotemporal data based on surface observations and satellite remote sensing during recent decades. However, it remains unclear whether rain gauge daily precipitation records also show a significant increase in global precipitation. In this study, we first apply the transformed version of the penalized maximum F test (“transPMFred”) to homogenize daily precipitation (P) records from 10,629 stations around the world during 1960–2016 from a dataset (GHCN‐CMA) that combines the daily precipitation data from the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN‐Daily) dataset and the China Meteorological Administration (CMA), and then utilize the homogenized data to study the frequency of daily precipitation on a global scale. The results indicate that precipitation frequency exhibited significant increasing trends from 1960 to 2016 across most of the globe, except for East Asia. Moreover, the variability of global precipitation frequency was more pronounced in wet regions than dry regions, especially in North America, Europe and East Asia based multiple daily precipitation datasets. The regional average frequency for moderate (30th 90th percentile) precipitation increased in North America and Europe. Changes in precipitation frequency decreased for light (P ≤ 30th percentile) and moderate precipitation but increased for heavy and very heavy precipitation, which mainly occurs in dry regions of Australia. Moreover, precipitation frequency in wet and dry regions of East Asia showed opposite trends, with a decrease in wet regions and an increase in dry regions.

Response of Size-Fractionated Chlorophyll a to Upwelling and Kuroshio in Northeastern South China Sea - Danyang Li; Shuang Yang; Yuqiu Wei; Xingzhou Wang; Yingjie Mao; Congcong Guo; Jun Sun (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The variability of size-fractionated chlorophyll a (Chl a) biomass and related environmental variables was investigated in a survey conducted in the northeastern South China Sea (NESCS), to assess their responses to upwelling, Kuroshio, and nutrients in the summer of 2017. The depth-weighted total Chl a concentration varied from 0.057 to 0.496 μg/L. The contribution of size-fractionated Chl a to total Chl a biomass was determined, with the contributions of pico-Chl a (0.2–2 μm), nano-Chl a (2–20 μm), and micro-Chl a (>20 μm) found to be 52.87%, 38.54%, and 8.59%, respectively. We found that nano-Chl a contributes more to total-Chl a than pico-Chl a in areas affected by upwelling. In addition, the results indicated an upward shift in the deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM) content in the upwelling area and the Kuroshio intrusion area. The Chl a biomass was increased in the physical process. Overall, correlation analysis showed that environmental variables (temperature, salinity, phosphate, silicate, nitrate, nitrite, ammonium) significantly influenced the phytoplankton biomass. However, physical processes determined the changes in environmental variables, with upwelling and Kuroshio being the main factors regulating the distribution of Chl a.

Improved and Flexible HDR Editing by Targeting Introns in iPSCs - Juan Fu; Ya-Wen Fu; Juan-Juan Zhao; Zhi-Xue Yang; Si-Ang Li; Guo-Hua Li; Zi-Jun Quan; Feng Zhang; Jian-Ping Zhang; Xiao-Bing Zhang; Chang-Kai Sun (Stem Cell Reviews and Reports, 2022)
Highly efficient gene knockout (KO) editing of CRISPR–Cas9 has been achieved in iPSCs, whereas homology-directed repair (HDR)-mediated precise gene knock-in (KI) and high-level expression are still bottlenecks for the clinical applications of iPSCs. Here, we developed a novel editing strategy that targets introns. By targeting the intron before the stop codon, this approach tolerates reading frameshift mutations caused by nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated indels, thereby maintaining gene integrity without damaging the non-HDR-edited allele. Furthermore, to increase the flexibility and screen for the best intron-targeting sgRNA, we designed an HDR donor with an artificial intron in place of the endogenous intron. The presence of artificial introns, particularly an intron that carries an enhancer element, significantly increased the reporter expression levels in iPSCs compared to the intron-deleted control. In addition, a combination of the small molecules M3814 and trichostatin A (TSA) significantly improves HDR efficiency by inhibiting NHEJ. These results should find applications in gene therapy and basic research, such as creating reporter cell lines.
