编辑人员丨1周前
坏死性小肠结肠炎(necrotizing enterocolitis,NEC)是新生儿最具破坏性的肠道炎症性疾病之一,目前其发病率及病死率居高不下。本文总结近年来关于NEC诊治方面的研究进展,提出单一或多组学研究可能有助于NEC的预测与早期诊断,肠道超声在提高NEC的诊断准确性方面显示出新希望;强调要重视NEC小肠造瘘术后的营养支持;羊水干细胞(amniotic fluid-derived stem cells,AFSCs)治疗有望成为预防新生儿NEC的新策略。

特应性皮炎的部位异质性
编辑人员丨1周前
特应性皮炎(AD)是一种高度异质性皮肤病,以往在年龄、严重度、炎症模式等方面的分型较为成熟,而对不同部位皮损特征的关注较少。最近发现不同部位AD对度普利尤单抗治疗的应答存在差异,表明不同部位皮损可能具有不同的炎症模式。因此本文提出AD部位异质性的概念,结合生理条件下不同部位皮肤的细胞生物学和微生态特点,分析不同部位AD临床表现、多组学研究及治疗应答的特征,探讨AD的发病机制,为AD个体化治疗提供依据。

Engineering the future cereal crops with big biological data:toward intelligence-driven breeding by design
编辑人员丨3周前
How to feed 10 billion human populations is one of the challenges that need to be addressed in the following decades,especially under an unpredicted climate change.Crop breeding,initiating from the phenotype-based selection by local farmers and developing into current biotechnology-based breeding,has played a critical role in securing the global food supply.However,regarding the changing environment and ever-increasing human population,can we breed outstanding crop varieties fast enough to achieve high productivity,good quality,and widespread adaptability?This review outlines the recent achievements in understanding cereal crop breeding,including the current knowledge about crop agronomic traits,newly developed techniques,crop big biological data research,and the possibility of integrating them for intelligence-driven breeding by design,which ushers in a new era of crop breeding practice and shapes the novel architecture of future crops.This review focuses on the major cereal crops,including rice,maize,and wheat,to explain how intelligence-driven breeding by design is becoming a reality.

Systematic identification of wheat spike developmental regulators by integrated multi-omics,transcriptional network,GWAS,and genetic analyses
编辑人员丨2024/7/6
The spike architecture of wheat plays a crucial role in determining grain number,making it a key trait for optimization in wheat breeding programs.In this study,we used a multi-omic approach to analyze the transcriptome and epigenome profiles of the young spike at eight developmental stages,revealing co-ordinated changes in chromatin accessibility and H3K27me3 abundance during the flowering transition.We constructed a core transcriptional regulatory network(TRN)that drives wheat spike formation and experimentally validated a multi-layer regulatory module involving TaSPL15,TaAGLG1,and TaFUL2.By integrating the TRN with genome-wide association studies,we identified 227 transcription factors,including 42 with known functions and 185 with unknown functions.Further investigation of 61 novel transcription factors using multiple homozygous mutant lines revealed 36 transcription factors that regulate spike architecture or flowering time,such as TaMYC2-A1,TaMYB30-A1,and TaWRKY37-A1.Of particular interest,TaMYB30-A1,downstream of and repressed by WFZP,was found to regulate fertile spikelet number.Notably,the excellent haplotype of TaMYB30-A1,which contains a C allele at the WFZP binding site,was enriched during wheat breeding improvement in China,leading to improved agronomic traits.Finally,we constructed a free and open access Wheat Spike Multi-Omic Database(http://39.98.48.156:8800/#/).Our study identifies novel and high-confidence regulators and offers an effective strategy for dissecting the genetic basis of wheat spike development,with practical value for wheat breeding.

作物全基因组选择育种技术研究进展
编辑人员丨2024/4/27
全基因组选择(GS)育种是根据训练群体全基因组上的分子标记基因型和表型之间的关联构建遗传模型,进而对基因型已知的待选群体进行育种值估计或表型预测,以实现对育种群体高效和精确的选择.相比于常用的分子标记辅助选择育种,GS育种无需进行标记显著性测验,特别适用于微效多基因控制的数量性状,可以缩短育种周期,降低育种成本,现已成为动、植物育种领域的一项前沿技术.然而,对受环境影响较大的作物产量等数量性状而言,仍面临着基因组预测准确性难以提升的瓶颈问题.本文首先分析了影响作物GS功效的主要因素,继而从非加性效应模型、群体构建方案、多性状与多环境预测、多组学预测和育种芯片技术现状等方面阐述了GS技术在作物育种中的研究进展,并指出研究所面临的问题和发展前景,为推动作物GS育种技术的进一步深入研究提供策略和思路.

Emerging role of galectin 3 in neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration
编辑人员丨2024/2/3
Neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration are key processes that mediate the development and progression of neurological diseases.However,the mechanisms modulating these processes in different diseases remain incompletely understood.Advances in single cell based multi-omic analyses have helped to identify distinct molecular signatures such as Lgals3 that is associated with neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration in the central nervous system(CNS).Lgals3 encodes galectin-3(Gal3),a β-galactoside and glycan binding glycoprotein that is frequently upregulated by reactive microglia/macrophages in the CNS during various neurological diseases.While Gal3 has previously been associated with non-CNS inflammatory and fibrotic diseases,recent studies highlight Gal3 as a prominent regulator of inflammation and neuroaxonal damage in the CNS during diseases such as multiple sclerosis,Alzheimer's disease,and Parkinson's disease.In this review,we summarize the pleiotropic functions of Gal3 and discuss evidence that demonstrates its detrimental role in neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration during different neurological diseases.We also consider the challenges of translating preclinical observations into targeting Gal3 in the human CNS.

New omic and network paradigms for deep understanding of therapeutic mechanisms for Fangji of traditional Chinese medicine
编辑人员丨2023/8/6
Combination therapy with multi-drug regimen as an integrated intervention of several pharmacological compounds that interact with multiple targets, rather than monotherapy using a single compound that targets at a single molecule, is a common strategy for combating complex disease in both Western and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)[1-3]. But each is based on different mechanistic principles.
