Background: One of the most promising approaches for early and more precise disease prediction and diagnosis is through the inclusion of proteomics data augmented with clinical data. Clinical proteomics data is often characterized by its high dimensionality and extremely limited sample size, posing a significant challenge when employing machine learning techniques for extracting only the most relevant information. Although there is a wide array of statistical techniques and numerous analysis pipelines employed in proteomics data analysis, it is unclear which of these methods produce the most efficient, reproducible, and clinically meaningful results.

Results: In this study, we compared 9 unique analysis schemes comprised of different machine learning and dimensionality reduction methods for the analysis of simulated proteomics data consisting of 1317 proteins measured in 26 subjects (i.e., 13 controls and 13 cases). In scenarios where the sample size is extremely small (i.e., n < 30), all schemes resulted in an exceptionally high level of performance metrics, indicating potential overfitting. While performance metrics did not exhibit significant differences across schemes, the set of proteins selected to be discriminatory between groups demonstrated a substantial level of heterogeneity. However, despite heterogeneity in the selected proteins, their biological pathways and genetic diseases exhibited similarities. A sensitivity analysis conducted using varying sample sizes indicated that the stability of a set of selected biomarkers improves with larger sample sizes within a scheme.

Conclusions: When the aim of the study is to identify a statistical model that best distinguishes between cohort groups using proteomics data and to uncover the biological pathways and disorders common among the selected proteins, the majority of widely used analysis pipelines perform similarly. However, if the main objective is to pinpoint a set of selected proteins that wield significant influence in discriminating cohort groups and utilize them for subsequent investigations, meticulous consideration is necessary when opting for statistical models, due to the possibility of heterogeneity in the sets of selected proteins.

背景:将蛋白质组学数据与临床数据相结合,是进行早期和更精确疾病预测与诊断的最有前途的方法之一。临床蛋白质组学数据通常具有高维度和样本量极其有限的特点,这给采用机器学习技术提取最相关信息带来了巨大挑战。虽然在蛋白质组学数据分析中使用了大量的统计技术和分析管道,但目前还不清楚哪种方法能产生最有效、可重复和有临床意义的结果:在这项研究中,我们比较了 9 种独特的分析方案,这些方案由不同的机器学习和降维方法组成,用于分析模拟蛋白质组学数据,这些数据包括在 26 个受试者(即 13 个对照组和 13 个病例)中测量的 1317 个蛋白质。在样本量极小的情况下(即 n 个结论:当研究的目的是利用蛋白质组学数据找出最能区分同组人群的统计模型,并发现所选蛋白质中常见的生物通路和疾病时,大多数广泛使用的分析管道都有类似的表现。然而,如果主要目的是找出一组在区分队列组别方面具有显著影响的选定蛋白质,并将其用于后续研究,那么在选择统计模型时就必须进行缜密的考虑,因为选定蛋白质组中可能存在异质性。

Background: Visium is a widely-used spatially-resolved transcriptomics assay available from 10x Genomics. Standard Visium capture areas (6.5mm by 6.5mm) limit the survey of larger tissue structures, but combining overlapping images and associated gene expression data allow for more complex study designs. Current software can handle nested or partial image overlaps, but is designed for merging up to two capture areas, and cannot account for some technical scenarios related to capture area alignment.

Results: We generated Visium data from a postmortem human tissue sample such that two capture areas were partially overlapping and a third one was adjacent. We developed the R/Bioconductor package visiumStitched, which facilitates stitching the images together with Fiji (ImageJ), and constructing SpatialExperiment R objects with the stitched images and gene expression data. visiumStitched constructs an artificial hexagonal array grid which allows seamless downstream analyses such as spatially-aware clustering without discarding data from overlapping spots. Data stitched with visiumStitched can then be interactively visualized with spatialLIBD.

Conclusions: visiumStitched provides a simple, but flexible framework to handle various multi-capture area study design scenarios. Specifically, it resolves a data processing step without disrupting analysis workflows and without discarding data from overlapping spots. visiumStitched relies on affine transformations by Fiji, which have limitations and are less accurate when aligning against an atlas or other situations. visiumStitched provides an easy-to-use solution which expands possibilities for designing multi-capture area study designs.

背景:Visium 是一种广泛使用的空间分辨转录组学检测方法,可从 10x Genomics 购买。标准 Visium 捕获区域(6.5 毫米乘 6.5 毫米)限制了对较大组织结构的调查,但将重叠图像和相关基因表达数据结合在一起可实现更复杂的研究设计。目前的软件可以处理嵌套或部分图像重叠,但最多只能合并两个捕获区域,而且不能考虑与捕获区域对齐相关的一些技术方案:结果:我们从死后人体组织样本中生成了 Visium 数据,其中两个捕获区域部分重叠,第三个捕获区域相邻。我们开发了R/Bioconductor软件包visiumStitched,它有助于用Fiji(ImageJ)将图像拼接在一起,并用拼接后的图像和基因表达数据构建SpatialExperiment R对象。visiumStitched构建了一个人工六边形阵列网格,可以进行无缝的下游分析,如空间感知聚类,而不会丢弃重叠点的数据。结论:visiumStitched 提供了一个简单而灵活的框架,可处理各种多捕获区研究设计方案。visiumStitched 依赖于 Fiji 的仿射变换,这种方法有其局限性,在与地图集或其他情况对齐时准确性较低。visiumStitched 提供了一种易于使用的解决方案,为设计多捕获区研究设计提供了更多可能性。

Background: Heat stress has deleterious effects on physiological and performance traits in livestock. Within this context, using tropically adapted cattle breeds in pure herds or terminal crossbreeding schemes to explore heterosis is attractive for increasing animal production in warmer climate regions. This study aimed to identify biological processes, pathways, and potential biomarkers related to thermotolerance in Caracu, a tropically adapted beef cattle breed, by proteomic analysis of blood plasma. To achieve this goal, 61 bulls had their thermotolerance evaluated through a heat tolerance index. A subset of 14 extreme animals, including the seven most thermotolerant (HIGH group) and the seven least thermotolerant (LOW group), had their blood plasma samples used for proteomic analysis by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The differentially regulated proteins detected between HIGH and LOW groups were used to perform functional enrichment analysis and a protein-protein interaction network analysis.

Results: A total of 217 proteins were detected only in the HIGH thermotolerant group and 51 only in the LOW thermotolerant group. In addition, 81 and 87 proteins had significantly higher and lower abundancies in the HIGH group, respectively. Regarding proteins with the highest absolute log-fold change values, we highlighted those encoded by DUSP5, IGFALS, ROCK2, RTN4, IRAG1, and NNT genes based on their functions. The functional enrichment analysis detected several biological processes, molecular functions, and pathways related to cellular responses to stress, immune system, complement system, and hemostasis in both HIGH and LOW groups, in addition to terms and pathways related to lipids and calcium only in the HIGH group. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network revealed as important nodes many proteins with roles in response to stress, hemostasis, immune system, inflammation, and homeostasis. Additionally, proteins with high absolute log-fold change values and proteins detected as essential nodes by PPI analysis highlighted herein are potential biomarkers for thermotolerance, such as ADRA1A, APOA1, APOB, APOC3, C4BPA, CAT, CFB, CFH, CLU, CXADR, DNAJB1, DNAJC13, DUSP5, FGA, FGB, FGG, HBA, HBB, HP, HSPD1, IGFALS, IRAG1, KNG1, NNT, OSGIN1, PROC, PROS1, ROCK2, RTN4, RYR1, TGFB2, VLDLR, VTN, and VWF.

Conclusions: Identifying potential biomarkers, molecular mechanisms and pathways that act in response to heat stress in tropically adapted beef cattle contributes to developing strategies to improve performance and welfare traits in livestock under tropical climates.

背景:热应激对家畜的生理和性能特征具有有害影响。在这种情况下,在纯种牛群或终端杂交计划中使用适应热带气候的牛种来探索异质性,对于提高气候较暖地区的动物产量很有吸引力。本研究旨在通过对血浆进行蛋白质组分析,确定与卡拉库(一种适应热带气候的肉牛品种)耐热性相关的生物过程、途径和潜在生物标志物。为了实现这一目标,61 头公牛通过耐热指数评估了它们的耐热性。14头极端动物(包括7头耐热性最强的动物(HIGH组)和7头耐热性最差的动物(LOW组))的血浆样本通过液相色谱-串联质谱(LC-MS/MS)进行了蛋白质组分析。对高低组之间检测到的差异调控蛋白质进行了功能富集分析和蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用网络分析:结果:高耐热组共检测到 217 个蛋白质,低耐热组检测到 51 个蛋白质。此外,高耐热组中分别有81个和87个蛋白质的丰度明显较高和较低。关于绝对对数值变化最大的蛋白质,我们根据其功能突出了由 DUSP5、IGFALS、ROCK2、RTN4、IRAG1 和 NNT 基因编码的蛋白质。功能富集分析在高组和低组中都发现了与细胞应激反应、免疫系统、补体系统和止血有关的一些生物过程、分子功能和通路,此外,只有在高组中发现了与脂质和钙有关的术语和通路。蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用(PPI)网络显示,许多在应激反应、止血、免疫系统、炎症和稳态中发挥作用的蛋白质是重要的节点。APOA1、APOB、APOC3、C4BPA、CAT、CFB、CFH、CLU、CXADR、DNAJB1、DNAJC13、DUSP5、FGA、FGB、FGG、HBA、HBB、HP、HSPD1、IGFALS、IRAG1、KNG1、NNT、OSGIN1、PROC、PROS1、ROCK2、RTN4、RYR1、TGFB2、VLDLR、VTN 和 VWF。结论确定适应热带气候的肉牛对热应激反应的潜在生物标志物、分子机制和途径有助于制定战略,改善热带气候下牲畜的性能和福利特征。

Background: Phloem protein 2 (PP2), a dimeric lectin, is known for its involvement in plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, research on PP2 proteins in Moso bamboo is lacking.

Results: In this study, comprehensive genome-wide analysis of the PP2-like gene family was conducted in Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis), which has a significant economic and ecological value. Using HMMER3 search and InterPro domain analysis, 23 PP2-like genes (PhePP2-1 to PhePP2-23) were identified in the P. edulis genome. These genes were distributed across 12 chromosomal scaffolds, with proteins ranging from 216 to 556 amino acids in length. Phylogenetic analysis, including 163 PP2 proteins from eight plant species, revealed six distinct groups, with Group III and Group V being the largest. Gene structure and motif analyses indicated conserved domains across the PhePP2 proteins. In addition, Cis-element analysis of the promoter regions highlighted their potential regulatory roles in hormone, stress, and light responses. Expression pattern analysis using RNA-seq data showed differential expression of PhePP2 genes under drought, salt, salicylic acid, and abscisic acid treatments, indicating their involvement in stress response pathways. Furthermore, qPCR validation in different tissues and organs of Moso bamboo confirmed the expression profiles of the selected PhePP2 genes.

Conclusions: This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the functional roles of PP2-like genes in Moso bamboo and insights into their potential applications in enhancing stress tolerance and growth in plants.

背景:韧皮部蛋白2(PP2)是一种二聚凝集素,因其参与植物对生物和非生物胁迫的反应而闻名。然而,有关毛竹中 PP2 蛋白的研究还很缺乏:结果:本研究对具有重要经济和生态价值的毛竹(Phyllostachys edulis)中的 PP2 类基因家族进行了全面的全基因组分析。利用 HMMER3 搜索和 InterPro 域分析,在毛竹基因组中发现了 23 个 PP2 样基因(PhePP2-1 至 PhePP2-23)。这些基因分布在 12 个染色体支架上,蛋白质长度从 216 到 556 个氨基酸不等。系统进化分析包括来自 8 个植物物种的 163 个 PP2 蛋白,发现了 6 个不同的组,其中第 III 组和第 V 组最大。基因结构和主题分析表明,PhePP2 蛋白的结构域是一致的。此外,启动子区域的顺式元素分析突出了它们在激素、胁迫和光反应中的潜在调控作用。利用 RNA-seq 数据进行的表达模式分析显示,在干旱、盐、水杨酸和脱落酸处理下,PhePP2 基因的表达存在差异,表明它们参与了胁迫响应途径。此外,毛竹不同组织和器官中的 qPCR 验证也证实了所选 PhePP2 基因的表达谱:本研究全面了解了毛竹中 PP2 类基因的功能作用,并深入了解了它们在提高植物抗逆性和生长方面的潜在应用。

In the rapidly expanding domain of scientific research, tracking and synthesizing information from the rapidly increasing volume of publications pose significant challenges. To address this, we introduce a novel high-throughput pipeline that employs ChatGPT to systematically extract and analyze connectivity information from the full-texts and abstracts of 24,237 and 150,538 research publications concerning Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster, respectively. This approach has effectively identified 200,219 and 1,194,587 interactions within the C. elegans and Drosophila biomaps, respectively. Utilizing Cytoscape Web, we have developed a searchable online biomaps that link relevant keywords to their corresponding PubMed IDs, thus providing seamless access to an extensive knowledge network encompassing C. elegans and Drosophila. Our work highlights the transformative potential of integrating artificial intelligence with bioinformatics to deepen our understanding of complex biological systems. By revealing the intricate web of relationships among key entities in C. elegans and Drosophila, we offer invaluable insights that promise to propel advancements in genetics, developmental biology, neuroscience, longevity, and beyond. We also provide details and discuss significant nodes within both biomaps, including the insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS) and the notch pathways. Our innovative methodology sets a robust foundation for future research aimed at unravelling complex biological networks across diverse organisms. The two databases are available at worm.bio-map.com and drosophila.bio-map.com.

在快速发展的科学研究领域,从数量迅速增加的出版物中跟踪和综合信息是一项重大挑战。为了解决这个问题,我们引入了一个新颖的高通量管道,利用 ChatGPT 系统地提取和分析分别来自 24,237 篇和 150,538 篇有关秀丽隐杆线虫和黑腹果蝇的研究论文全文和摘要中的连接性信息。这种方法在秀丽隐杆线虫和果蝇的生物图谱中分别有效地发现了 200,219 和 1,194,587 种相互作用。利用 Cytoscape Web,我们开发了一个可搜索的在线生物图谱,将相关关键词与其对应的 PubMed ID 相链接,从而提供了对包括秀丽隐杆线虫和果蝇在内的广泛知识网络的无缝访问。我们的工作凸显了将人工智能与生物信息学相结合以加深我们对复杂生物系统理解的变革潜力。通过揭示线虫和果蝇关键实体之间错综复杂的关系网,我们提供了宝贵的见解,有望推动遗传学、发育生物学、神经科学、长寿学等领域的进步。我们还详细介绍并讨论了两个生物图谱中的重要节点,包括胰岛素/IGF-1 信号传导(IIS)和缺口通路。我们的创新方法为未来的研究奠定了坚实的基础,旨在揭示不同生物体的复杂生物网络。这两个数据库分别位于 worm.bio-map.com 和 drosophila.bio-map.com。

Background: Novel technologies are needed to combat anopheline vectors of malaria parasites as the reductions in worldwide disease incidence has stalled in recent years. Gene drive-based approaches utilizing Cas9/guide RNA (gRNA) systems are being developed to suppress anopheline populations or modify them by increasing their refractoriness to the parasites. These systems rely on the successful cleavage of a chromosomal DNA target site followed by homology-directed repair (HDR) in germline cells to bias inheritance of the drive system. An optimal drive system should be highly efficient for HDR-mediated gene conversion with minimal error rates. A gene-drive system, AgNosCd-1, with these attributes has been developed in the Anopheles gambiae G3 strain and serves as a framework for further development of population modification strains. To validate AgNosCd-1 as a versatile platform, it must perform well in a variety of genetic backgrounds.

Results: We introduced or introgressed AgNosCd-1 into different genetic backgrounds, three in geographically-diverse Anopheles gambiae strains, and one each in an An. coluzzii and An. arabiensis strain. The overall drive inheritance, determined by presence of a dominant marker gene in the F2 hybrids, far exceeded Mendelian inheritance ratios in all genetic backgrounds that produced viable progeny. Haldane's rule was confirmed for AgNosCd-1 introgression into the An. arabiensis Dongola strain and sterility of the F1 hybrid males prevented production of F2 hybrid offspring. Back-crosses of F1 hybrid females were not performed to keep the experimental design consistent across all the genetic backgrounds and to avoid maternally-generated mutant alleles that might confound the drive dynamics. DNA sequencing of the target site in F1 and F2 mosquitoes with exceptional phenotypes revealed drive system-generated mutations resulting from non-homologous end joining events (NHEJ), which formed at rates similar to AgNosCd-1 in the G3 genetic background and were generated via the same maternal-effect mechanism.

Conclusions: These findings support the conclusion that the AgNosCd-1 drive system is robust and has high drive inheritance and gene conversion efficiency accompanied by low NHEJ mutation rates in diverse An. gambiae s.l. laboratory strains.

背景:近年来,全球疟疾发病率的下降停滞不前,因此需要采用新技术来对付疟原虫病媒。目前正在开发基于基因驱动的方法,利用 Cas9/guide RNA(gRNA)系统来抑制疟原虫种群,或通过增加它们对寄生虫的耐受性来改变它们。这些系统依赖于染色体 DNA 目标位点的成功裂解,然后在生殖细胞中进行同源定向修复(HDR),使驱动系统偏向遗传。最佳的驱动系统应能高效地进行 HDR 介导的基因转换,并将错误率降至最低。具有这些特性的基因驱动系统 AgNosCd-1 已在冈比亚按蚊 G3 株系中开发出来,并作为进一步开发群体改造株系的框架。为了验证 AgNosCd-1 作为一个多功能平台的有效性,它必须在各种遗传背景下表现良好:结果:我们在不同的遗传背景中引入或导入了 AgNosCd-1,其中三个是在地理位置不同的冈比亚按蚊品系中,另一个是在科鲁兹按蚊和阿拉伯按蚊品系中。根据 F2 杂交种中显性标记基因的存在情况确定,在所有产生可存活后代的遗传背景中,总体驱动遗传率远远超过孟德尔遗传率。在将 AgNosCd-1 导入阿拉伯疟原虫 Dongola 株系时,霍尔丹法则得到了证实,F1 杂交雄性的不育性阻止了 F2 杂交后代的产生。为了使所有遗传背景的实验设计保持一致,并避免母本产生的突变等位基因可能对驱动力动态产生干扰,没有对 F1 杂交雌性进行回交。对具有特殊表型的 F1 和 F2 蚊子的目标位点进行 DNA 测序,发现了由非同源末端连接事件(NHEJ)导致的驱动系统产生的突变,这些突变的形成速度与 G3 遗传背景中的 AgNosCd-1 相似,并且是通过相同的母体效应机制产生的:这些发现支持以下结论:AgNosCd-1驱动系统是稳健的,在不同的冈比亚蚂蚁实验室菌株中具有高驱动遗传和基因转换效率以及低NHEJ突变率。

Mangiferin, a C-glucosyl xanthone, is a biologically active glycoside naturally synthesized in mango. Glycosyltransferase can catalyze the biosynthesis of mangiferin. In this study, we identified 221 members of the UGT glycosyltransferase family in mango. The 221 MiUGT genes were grouped into 13 subfamilies through phylogenetic tree analysis with Arabidopsis, Chinese bayberry, and mango. All UGT family members in mango were unevenly distributed on 17 chromosomes and found that tandem duplication dominated the expansion of UGT family members in mango. Purification selection primarily influenced the evolution of the mango UGT family members. In addition, cis-element analysis of the mango UGT gene family revealed the presence of MYB binding sites, which are involved in flavonoid biosynthesis; which further supports the role of UGT family members in the synthesis of flavonoids. To verify these results, we analyzed the expression of UGT family members in mango leaves, stems, and different developmental stages of fruit peel. The RNA-seq and qRT-PCR results showed significant differences in the expression patterns of MiUGT genes in various tissues and developmental stages of mango. We identified MiUGT gene-specific expression at different stages of fruit development. These results lay a theoretical foundation for research on the relationship between members of the mango UGT family and the synthesis of flavonoids, mangiferin.

芒果苷是一种 C-葡糖基黄酮,是芒果中天然合成的具有生物活性的糖苷。糖基转移酶可催化芒果苷的生物合成。在这项研究中,我们在芒果中发现了 221 个 UGT 糖基转移酶家族成员。通过与拟南芥、杨梅和芒果的系统发生树分析,将这221个MiUGT基因分为13个亚科。芒果中的所有UGT家族成员不均匀地分布在17条染色体上,发现串联复制主导了芒果中UGT家族成员的扩展。纯化选择主要影响了芒果 UGT 家族成员的进化。此外,对芒果 UGT 基因家族的顺式元素分析表明,其中存在参与类黄酮生物合成的 MYB 结合位点;这进一步支持了 UGT 家族成员在类黄酮合成中的作用。为了验证这些结果,我们分析了 UGT 家族成员在芒果叶、茎和果皮不同发育阶段的表达情况。RNA-seq和qRT-PCR结果显示,MiUGT基因在芒果不同组织和发育阶段的表达模式存在显著差异。我们确定了 MiUGT 基因在果实不同发育阶段的特异性表达。这些结果为研究芒果 UGT 家族成员与黄酮类化合物芒果素合成之间的关系奠定了理论基础。

Background: As the inflorescence of wheat, spike architecture largely determines grain productivity. Dissecting the genetic basis for the spike morphology of wheat can contribute to the designation of ideal spike morphology to improve grain production.

Results: The present study characterizes a dense spike1 (ds1) mutant, derived from Nongda3753, induced by EMS treatment, which exhibits a dense spike and reduced plant height. Through bulked segregant analysis sequencing (BSA-Seq) of two segregating populations, ds1 was mapped to the short arm of chromosome 7B. Further genotypic and phenotypic analyses of the residual heterozygous lines from F3 to F6 of Yong3002×ds1 revealed that there was a 0-135 Mb deletion in chromosome 7B associated with the dense spike phenotype. The reads count analysis of the two bulks in BSA-Seq, along with the cytological analysis of ds1, ND3753, NIL-ds1 and NIL-Y3002, confirmed that the partial unidirectional translocation of 5AL (543-713 Mb) to 7BS (0-135 Mb) exists in ds1. This translocation led to an increase in both copy number and expression of the Q gene, which is one of the reasons for the dense spike phenotype observed in ds1.

Conclusion: Partial unidirectional translocation from 5AL to 7BS was identified in the EMS-induced mutant ds1, which exhibits dense spike phenotype. This research illustrates the effect of one chromosome structure variation on wheat spike morphology, and provides new materials with several chromosome structure variations for future wheat breeding.

背景:作为小麦的花序,穗的结构在很大程度上决定了谷物的产量。剖析小麦穗形态的遗传基础有助于确定理想的穗形态,从而提高谷物产量:本研究描述了一个密穗 1(ds1)突变体的特征,该突变体来源于农达 3753,由 EMS 处理诱导,表现出密穗和植株高度降低。通过对两个分离群体进行大量分离分析测序(BSA-Seq),ds1被映射到7B染色体的短臂上。对Yong3002×ds1的F3至F6残余杂合子品系进行的进一步基因型和表型分析表明,7B染色体上有一个0-135 Mb的缺失与密穗表型有关。BSA-Seq 中对两个突变体的读数分析以及对 ds1、ND3753、NIL-ds1 和 NIL-Y3002 的细胞学分析证实,ds1 中存在 5AL(543-713 Mb)到 7BS(0-135 Mb)的部分单向易位。这种易位导致 Q 基因的拷贝数和表达量增加,这也是在 ds1 中观察到密穗表型的原因之一:结论:在 EMS 诱导的突变体 ds1 中发现了从 5AL 到 7BS 的部分单向易位,该突变体表现出密穗表型。该研究说明了一个染色体结构变异对小麦穗形态的影响,为今后小麦育种提供了具有多个染色体结构变异的新材料。

Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) function as essential regulatory elements with pivotal roles in various biological processes. However, their expression profiles and functional regulation during the differentiation of goat myoblasts have not been thoroughly explored. This study conducts an analysis of circRNA expression profiles during the proliferation phase (cultured in growth medium, GM) and differentiation phase (cultured in differentiation medium, DM1/DM5) of skeletal muscle satellite cells (MuSCs) in goats.

Results: A total of 2,094 circRNAs were identified, among which 84 were differentially expressed as determined by pairwise comparisons across three distinct groups. Validation of the expression levels of six randomly selected circRNAs was performed using reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR), with confirmation of their back-splicing junction sites. Enrichment analysis of the host genes associated with differentially expressed circRNAs (DEcircRNAs) indicated significant involvement in biological processes such as muscle contraction, muscle hypertrophy, and muscle tissue development. Additionally, these host genes were implicated in key signaling pathways, including Hippo, TGF-beta, and MAPK pathways. Subsequently, employing Cytoscape, we developed a circRNA-miRNA interaction network to elucidate the complex regulatory mechanisms underlying goat muscle development, encompassing 21 circRNAs and 47 miRNAs. Functional assays demonstrated that circTGFβ2 enhances myogenic differentiation in goats, potentially through a miRNA sponge mechanism.

Conclusion: In conclusion, we identified the genome-wide expression profiles of circRNAs in goat MuSCs during both proliferation and differentiation phases, and established that circTGFβ2 plays a role in the regulation of myogenesis. This study offers a significant resource for the advanced exploration of the biological functions and mechanisms of circRNAs in the myogenesis of goats.

背景:环状 RNA(circRNA)是在各种生物过程中起关键作用的重要调控元件。然而,它们在山羊成肌细胞分化过程中的表达谱和功能调控尚未得到深入探讨。本研究对山羊骨骼肌卫星细胞(MuSCs)增殖期(在生长培养基 GM 中培养)和分化期(在分化培养基 DM1/DM5 中培养)的 circRNA 表达谱进行了分析:结果:共鉴定出 2,094 个 circRNA,其中 84 个在三个不同组别中通过配对比较确定为差异表达。利用反转录 PCR(RT-PCR)和定量 RT-PCR(qRT-PCR)对随机选择的六个 circRNA 的表达水平进行了验证,并确认了它们的反向剪接连接点。对与差异表达的 circRNAs(DEcircRNAs)相关的宿主基因进行的富集分析表明,这些基因在肌肉收缩、肌肉肥大和肌肉组织发育等生物过程中有重要参与。此外,这些宿主基因还与关键信号通路有关,包括 Hippo、TGF-beta 和 MAPK 通路。随后,我们利用Cytoscape开发了一个circRNA-miRNA相互作用网络,以阐明山羊肌肉发育的复杂调控机制,其中包括21个circRNA和47个miRNA。功能测试表明,circTGFβ2可通过miRNA海绵机制增强山羊肌肉分化:总之,我们鉴定了山羊MuSCs在增殖和分化阶段的全基因组circRNA表达谱,并确定了circTGFβ2在调控成肌过程中的作用。这项研究为进一步探索circRNA在山羊肌生成过程中的生物学功能和机制提供了重要资源。
