Transcriptomic evidence suggesting a Trojan horse‐like synergistic effect in exposures to nanoplastics and benzo[a]pyrene on a yellowfin sea bream muscle derived cell line - Xuezhu Lee; Shina Wei; Kecheng Zhu; Min Guo; Honglin Han; Dikuang Peng; Chuchu Lai; Jiayan Wang; Xinyu Wang; Qiwei Qin; Min Yang; Jun Wang (Journal of Fish Biology, 2026)
In this study, a new cell line named yellowfin sea bream muscle (YSBM) was successfully established by using muscle tissue from yellowfin seabream, Acanthopagrus latus , a widespread saline fish cultivated in China. The YSBM cell line was subcultured more than 100 passages and appeared to be suitable for researching gene functions in vitro, as it was able to be transfected successfully with pEGFP‐N3 plasmid. Additionally, YSBM cells were found to be susceptible to red‐spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV), suggesting that this cell line can be a valuable resource for fish virology research. Further, YSBM cells were employed in environmental pollutant exposure experiments to investigate the mechanisms of damage caused by these pollutants to muscle tissue of aquatic organisms. We exposed YSBM cells to nanoplastics (NPs), benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and a mixture of both, and performed transcriptome analysis on the samples. Our transcriptome analyses revealed discernible variations in the effects on the cells between the groups where BaP and NPs were processed separately. Interestingly, joint treatment with the two pollutants resulted in a synergistic toxicity, an effect reminiscent of the hypothesized ‘Trojan horse’ mechanism, where the mixture of BaP and NPs demonstrated mutually augmenting toxicities on aquatic organisms. Overall, our results suggest that the YSBM cell line could be a valuable tool in aquatic environmental pollution toxicological analysis. It is particularly useful for evaluating the effects of environmental pollutants on fish and their potential impact on humans via the food chain. A graphical abstract is provided to illustrate the methodology and key findings of this study. Thus, our study sheds new light on the potential risks of environmental contaminants and illustrates the usefulness of YSBM cells for environmental toxicology research.

Pseudostellaria heterophylla Extract Enhances the Immune Responses in Larimichthys crocea Against Pseudomonas plecoglossicida Infection - Kun Huang Han; Zi Min Li; Li Zhou; Dong Ling Zhang; Ying Li; Zhao Han Sun; Jia Chen; Zhi Deng Lin; Yan Bin Dai; Peng Fei Zou (Fishes, 2026)
Visceral white spot disease caused by Pseudomonas plecoglossicida poses a severe threat to large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) aquaculture. This study investigated the immunomodulatory effects and underlying mechanisms of Pseudostellaria heterophylla extract against P. plecoglossicida infection in L. crocea. Fish were fed a basal diet supplemented with 1% P. heterophylla extract for 30, 45, and 60 days, followed by intraperitoneal injection with 200 μL P. plecoglossicida (1 × 104 CFU/mL). When the control group reached about 50% mortality, transcriptome sequencing of head kidney tissues was performed on the 45 and 60 days post-feeding of the treatment groups to analyze gene expression changes following bacterial infection. Survival rates of the treatment groups were 33.33%, 13.33%, and 20% higher than those of the control group at 30, 45, and 60 days post-feeding, respectively. Transcriptomic analysis revealed time-dependent transcriptional responses: in one group, 45 days post-feeding, 10 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified (2 up-regulated and 8 down-regulated), whereas in another group, 60 days post-feeding, 893 DEGs were detected (417 up-regulated and 476 down-regulated). Functional enrichment analysis (GO, KEGG, and GSEA) demonstrated that DEGs were significantly enriched in immune-related pathways, including Toll-like receptor signaling, chemokine activity, Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation, hematopoietic cell lineage, and cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction. Key immune genes, including chemokines, Toll-like receptors, and T cell regulators, were significantly up-regulated. These findings indicate that P. heterophylla extract enhances both the specific and non-specific immune capabilities of L. crocea in a time-dependent manner, with prolonged supplementation eliciting more robust transcriptional activation of immune defense pathways. This study provides a scientific foundation for developing immunological prevention strategies against P. plecoglossicida infection in aquaculture.

Governing the digital transition: the role of protection and indemnity associations in China’s green and sustainable maritime transformation - Tiexiong Wang; Nan Jiang; Salvatore Antonio Biancardo; Min Zhang; Shiwen Zhu; Han Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2026)
Under the backdrop of data-driven maritime era and the shipping industry’s green and low-carbon transition, the China Shipowners’ Mutual Assurance Association is confronted with unclear legal status, insufficient operational capacity and delayed internationalization. Emerging risks including shore power, alternative fuels and emission control have posed systemic challenges to its traditional governance framework, with risk scenarios expanding from navigation to port berthing and liability identification shifting from single party to multi-party coordination. While digital tools like big data and AI are reshaping risk assessment and governance paradigms internationally, this paper adopts methodologies of legal characteristic analysis, comparative study of domestic and international practices, and case studies to clarify the core roles of Protection and Indemnity Associations (P&I Clubs) in areas such as accident investigation, oil pollution claims, and security provision. The findings indicate that international P&I clubs have formed mature governance and risk-sharing mechanisms, while Chinese counterparts are hampered by legislative gaps, traditional risk control models, incomplete global networks and limited international influence. To address these gaps and position the association to leverage future data-centric governance models, this study puts forward a four-pronged strategy based on institutional construction, capacity building and international expansion: formulating special legislation, advancing digital transformation and talent training, and participating in the formulation of technical standards and international rules to boost green port governance collaboration. This will help the association transform from passive adaptation to active leadership, so as to support the high-quality, data-aware, and sustainable development of China’s shipping industry.

Association between obesity and subsequent risk of myasthenia gravis: a nationwide population-based cohort study - Soonwook Kwon; Ye Bin Park; Kyung-Do Han; Yeon Hak Chung; Eun Bin Cho; Dong Wook Shin; Ju-Hong Min (Acta Neurologica Belgica, 2026)
Background Obesity causes a pro-inflammatory environment and is an established risk factor for a variety of autoimmune diseases. However, the association with the subsequent risk of myasthenia gravis (MG) was unclear. Methods This nationwide cohort study evaluated 3,937,214 adults over 20 years old, using data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service. Participants were categorized by body mass index (BMI) into underweight (BMI Results During about 10-year follow-up, 799 individuals developed MG (mean age 47.3 years old [SD, 14.02 years], male 54.6%, and BMI ≥ 25 kg/m 2 32.6%). The incidence rate was highest in the obese class II group (3.39/100,000 person-years). Obese class I (aHR 1.20, 95% CI 1.00–1.43) and class II (aHR 1.88, 95% CI 1.37–2.56) groups demonstrated significantly elevated MG risks compared to the normal BMI group. In subgroup analyses, underweight males had a notably increased risk (aHR 2.16, 95% CI 1.24–3.78). Conclusion Obesity has an association with an increased risk of subsequent MG, suggesting a potential risk factor of MG. Further studies are needed to elucidate the association between obesity and MG.

Feasibility of home-based, remotely delivered exercise training to improve physical function in older sepsis survivors: a pilot randomized controlled trial - Yi Lin; Rola S. Zeidan; Rezvan Ghaderpanah; Margaret K. Ohama; Min-Han Jung; Naveen Baskaran; Juan Sarmiento Delgado; Stephen D. Anton; Barbara K. Smith; Christiaan Leeuwenburgh; Fang-Chi Hsu; Philip A. Efron; et al. (GeroScience, 2026)
Sepsis survivors frequently experience post-discharge physical function decline and encounter logistical barriers to participation in traditional outpatient rehabilitation. This pilot study examined the feasibility, safety, and preliminary efficacy of a remotely delivered, home-based exercise program on physical function in older sepsis survivors. In this single-blinded, randomized controlled trial (RCT), sepsis survivors aged ≥ 55 years were randomized to (a) 12 weeks of avatar-guided, progressive exercise training group (EX) or (b) a standard care control group (CO). Primary outcomes were feasibility (retention, adherence) and safety (adverse events), whereas secondary outcomes were changes in the 30-s Sit-to-Stand (30SSTS), 4-Stage Balance Test (4SBT), Timed Up-and-Go (TUG) tests, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group/Zubrod's (ECOG/Zubrod) performance status score. Twenty-one participants were randomized to either EX ( n = 10, mean age = 69.6 ± 8.5 years, 40% females) or CO ( n = 11, mean age = 72.3 ± 7.9 years, 45% females). Mean retention was 95% and adherence to exercise training was 76%. Thirty-four adverse events (AEs) occurred (EX = 11; CO = 16; consented but not randomized = 7 events), including four serious AEs that were unrelated to the study. The EX group showed trends toward improvements in lower-extremity strength (30SSTS: 1.14 ± 2.91 repetitions, Cohen’s d = 0.393) and balance (4SBT: 5.07 ± 4.75 s, d = 1.07), whereas the CO group showed no change in balance on the 4SBT (0.01 ± 4.38 s, d = 0.003) and trends toward decline in lower-extremity strength on the 30SSTS (− 0.88 ± 0.99 repetitions, d = − 0.883). TUG performance showed modest trends toward reductions in completion time in both groups (EX: − 1.42 ± 6.58 s, d = − 0.216; CO: − 1.27 ± 2.73 s, d = − 0.466). ECOG/Zubrod scores showed a modest trend toward improvement in the EX group subset. This pilot RCT demonstrated that a 12-week, remotely delivered exercise program was safe and feasible for older sepsis survivors and showed preliminary signals of positive change in lower-extremity strength, balance, and functional status, which warrants testing efficacy in an adequately powered Phase IIb RCT.

Animal gut microbes and microbiomes in the 21st century and beyond - Zhigang Zhang; Feng Jiang; Zhipeng Li; Limei Lin; Bin Qi; Dandan Han; Chao Ran; Shengyong Mao; Junjun Wang; Zhigang Zhou; Min Wang; Jilian Li; et al. (Science China Life Sciences, 2026)
Animal gut microbiomes—comprising bacteria, archaea, fungi, viruses, and protozoa—are fundamental to host evolution, physiology, and ecosystem resilience. This review synthesizes 21st-century advances in their diversity, spatiotemporal dynamics, and functional roles across the animal kingdom. Although high-throughput metagenomics has transformed the field, major biases remain: most studies still focus on domesticated vertebrates and fecal samples, leaving substantial “microbial dark matter” in wild hosts, invertebrates, and non-bacterial domains unexplored. We highlight how gut microbiomes mediate adaptation to environmental extremes, including hypoxia, temperature stress, and toxins, and how industrialization disrupts these communities, contributing to biodiversity loss and disease risk. We further integrate eco-evolutionary theory, multi-omics, and spatial modeling to clarify cross-kingdom interactions and functional networks. Finally, we discuss translational applications—including probiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), phage therapy, and synthetic consortia—and emphasize the need for global collaborative initiatives, artificial intelligence (AI)-driven discovery, and standardized databases to unlock the full potential of animal gut microbiomes for biodiversity conservation, climate resilience, and planetary health in the coming decades.

Multi-Scale Temporal Uncertainty-Aware Hierarchical Adaptive Ensemble for Intelligent Ship Emission Monitoring and Prediction - Duc-Anh Pham; Kyeong-Ju Kong; Jung-Min Kim; Hee-Sung Yoon; Seung-Hun Han (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2026)
This paper presents a novel Multi-Scale Temporal Uncertainty-aware Hierarchical Adaptive Ensemble (MSTU-HAE) algorithm for intelligent ship emission monitoring and prediction in maritime environmental compliance applications. The maritime shipping industry contributes approximately 3% of global CO2 emissions and significant amounts of nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides, necessitating advanced predictive monitoring systems. The proposed MSTU-HAE algorithm integrates three key innovations: multi-scale temporal feature extraction using causal convolutions at short-term (5 samples), medium-term (20 samples), and long-term (60 samples) windows; gas-specific attention mechanisms that automatically weight temporal scales based on individual emission gas characteristics; and three-level hierarchical uncertainty quantification encompassing individual model uncertainty, ensemble disagreement, and regulatory compliance risk assessment. Experimental validation was conducted using emission data collected from a fishing vessel over 3 operational days (1732 original samples), augmented to 17,320 samples via controlled replication with noise injection to support model training. Rigorous temporal data splitting with 70%/15%/15% train/validation/test partitioning ensures no data leakage. Comparative analysis against six baseline methods (XGBoost, LSBoost, AdaBoost, Ridge Regression, Random Forest, and K-Nearest Neighbors) demonstrates that MSTU-HAE achieves superior average performance, with R2 = 0.9670 and NSE = 0.9670 across all emission gases. This research contributes a robust, interpretable, and scalable prediction framework that advances the state of the art in maritime environmental monitoring through novel algorithmic innovations in temporal feature learning and uncertainty quantification.

NOD‐like receptors (NLRs) serve as crucial innate immune sensors in multicellular organisms, recognizing diverse pathogen‐associated components and regulating immune responses such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) signalling and inflammatory pathways. To elucidate the roles of NLRC3 , NLRC5 and NLRX1 in the innate immunity of the Mastacembelus armatus , this study first characterized these genes and examined their response to Aeromonas veronii infection. We identified the three NLR genes from the M. armatus transcriptome and analysed their evolutionary relationships through domain architecture and maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenetic reconstruction. All three NLR proteins contained conserved NACHT and leucine‐rich repeat (LRR) domains, and ML phylogenetic analysis grouped M. armatus with other Synbranchiformes and Perciformes, consistent with established taxonomy. Tissue expression profiling in healthy fish revealed constitutive expression of all three genes across nine examined tissues, with significantly higher levels in gills, suggesting their involvement in frontline mucosal immunity. Temporal expression analysis in spleen, liver and kidney following A. veronii challenge showed distinct organ‐specific patterns: although all three genes were downregulated in the liver, they were significantly upregulated in spleen and kidney, indicating these as primary sites for NLR‐mediated immune responses in M. armatus . Selection pressure analysis using CodeML identified widespread purifying selection across teleost NLRs, alongside multiple positively selected sites in NLRC5 (7 sites in site model, 5 in branch‐site model) and NLRX1 (2 sites in site model, 22 in branch‐site model). These findings provide fundamental insights into NLR‐mediated immunity in M. armatus and contribute to understanding the evolution and function of NLR genes in teleosts.
