Xu Q, Jiang Y, Wang J, Deng R, Yue Z. Temperature-Driven Activated Sludge Bacterial Community Assembly and Carbon Transformation Potential: A Case Study of Industrial Plants in the Yangtze River Delta. Microorganisms 2024; 12:1454. [PMID: 39065222 PMCID: PMC11278906 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms12071454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Temperature plays a critical role in the efficiency and stability of industrial wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This study focuses on the effects of temperature on activated sludge (AS) communities within the A2O process of 19 industrial WWTPs in the Yangtze River Delta, a key industrial region in China. The investigation aims to understand how temperature influences AS community composition, functional assembly, and carbon transformation processes, including CO2 emission potential. Our findings reveal that increased operating temperatures lead to a decrease in alpha diversity, simplifying community structure and increasing modularity. Dominant species become more prevalent, with significant decreases in the relative abundance of Chloroflexi and Actinobacteria, and increases in Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes. Moreover, higher temperatures enhance the overall carbon conversion potential of AS, particularly boosting CO2 absorption in anaerobic conditions as the potential for CO2 emission during glycolysis and TCA cycles grows and diminishes, respectively. The study highlights that temperature is a major factor affecting microbial community characteristics and CO2 fluxes, with more pronounced effects observed in anaerobic sludge. This study provides valuable insights for maintaining stable A2O system operations, understanding carbon footprints, and improving COD removal efficiency in industrial WWTPs.

Abstract
An early diagnosis of salivary gland tumors (SGTs) and determination of their malignancy are conducive to developing individualized therapeutic strategies and thus improving prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the difference of serum metabolic profiles in patients with SGTs to better understand the mechanism of this disease and disease risk stratification. We used ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography Q Exactive mass spectrometry and multivariate statistical analyses to conduct a comprehensive analysis of serum metabolites in a population with normal control and SGTs. 32 differentially expressed metabolites were identified, while the level of serine and lactic acid were investigated to gradually upregulate in benign SGTs and malignant SGTs. Then, the expression of serine and lactic acid were assessed in validation cohort using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) based targeted metabolite analysis. A risk score formula based on the amount of serine and lactic acid was developed and explored to be significantly related to benign SGTs and malignant SGTs in discovery and validation cohort. Our work highlights the possible use of the risk score assessment based on the serum metabolites not only reveal in the early diagnosis of SGTs but also assist in enhancing current therapeutic strategies in the clinic.

Front Microbiol 2022; 13:842893.

Abstract
Gastrodia elata is an entirely heterotrophic plant, the growth of which is completely reliant on Armillaria gallica, an orchid mycorrhizal fungus. To avoid damaging ecosystems, G. elata cultivation is shifting from woodland to farmland. However, whether the microbial community structure remains stable during this conversation is unknown. Here, we cultivated G. elata in woodland or farmland and found that woodland-cultivated G. elata produced a greater yield and larger tuber size. The relative abundance of Rahnella was 22.84- and 122.25-fold higher in woodland- and farmland-cultivated soil samples, respectively, than that in uncultivated soil samples. To investigate how Rahnella impacts the growth of G. elata and establishes symbiosis with Armillaria gallica, three Rahnella spp. strains (HPDA25, SBD3, and SBD11) were isolated from mycorrhizosphere soil samples. It was found that these strains, especially HPDA25, promoted the growth of A. gallica. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometry analysis detected the indole-3-acetic acid with 16.24 ng/ml in HPDA25 fermentation solution. Co-culturing with the strain HPDA25 or exogenous indole-3-acetic acid increased the branching and fresh weight of rhizomorphs and the growth rate and extracellular laccase activity of A. gallica, compared with A. gallica cultured alone. The results of RNA-seq and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that co-culturing A. gallica with HPDA25 increased the expression level of the genes including hydrophobin, SUR7/PalI family, and pectin methylesterase, whereas decreased the expression levels of glycolysis-related genes. Furthermore, co-culturing with the strain HPDA25, A. gallica promotes the growth of G. elata and enhances the tuber size of G. elata. These results provide new insights into an orchid mycorrhizal symbiosis and the cultivation of G. elata.

Abstract
The C2H2-type zinc finger proteins (C2H2-ZFPs) regulate various developmental processes and abiotic stress responses in eukaryotes. Yet, a comprehensive analysis of these transcription factors which could be used to find candidate genes related to the control the development and abiotic stress tolerance has not been performed in Pleurotus ostreatus. To fill this knowledge gap, 18 C2H2-ZFs were identified in the P. ostreatus genome. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that these proteins have dissimilar amino acid sequences. In addition, these proteins had variable protein characteristics, gene intron-exon structures, and motif compositions. The expression patterns of PoC2H2-ZFs in mycelia, primordia, and young and mature fruiting bodies were investigated using qRT-PCR. The expression of some PoC2H2-ZFs is regulated by auxin and cytokinin. Moreover, members of PoC2H2-ZFs expression levels are changed dramatically under heat and cold stress, suggesting that these genes may participate in abiotic stress responses. These findings could be used to study the role of P. ostreatus-derived C2H2-ZFs in development and stress tolerance.

Abstract
Background Trehalose, an intracellular protective agent reported to mediate defense against many stresses, can alleviate high-temperature-induced damage in Pleurotus ostreatus. In this study, the mechanism by which trehalose relieves heat stress was explored by the addition of exogenous trehalose and the use of trehalose-6-phosphate synthase 1 (tps1) overexpression transformants. Results The results suggested that treatment with exogenous trehalose or overexpression of tps1 alleviated the accumulation of lactic acid under heat stress and downregulated the expression of the phosphofructokinase (pfk) and pyruvate kinase (pk) genes, suggesting an ameliorative effect of trehalose on the enhanced glycolysis in P. ostreatus under heat stress. However, the upregulation of hexokinase (hk) gene expression by trehalose indicated the involvement of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) in heat stress resistance. Moreover, treatment with exogenous trehalose or overexpression of tps1 increased the gene expression level and enzymatic activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pdh) and increased the production of both the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and glutathione (GSH), confirming the effect of trehalose on alleviating oxidative damage by enhancing PPP in P. ostreatus under heat stress. Furthermore, treatment with exogenous trehalose or overexpression of tps1 ameliorated the decrease in the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) caused by heat stress, suggesting a relationship between trehalose and mitochondrial function under heat stress. Conclusions Trehalose alleviates high-temperature stress in P. ostreatus by inhibiting glycolysis and stimulating PPP activity. This study may provide further insights into the heat stress defense mechanism of trehalose in edible fungi from the perspective of intracellular metabolism.

Abstract
The growth of the well-known fungus Ganoderma lucidum is influenced by temperature, which has an impact on the associated microbial structure in the substrate. In this study, we analyzed the bacterial diversity of the substrate at different temperatures using next-generation sequencing technology. A total of 513 733 sequences from 15 samples were assigned to 19 bacterial phyla. The samples were dominated by Proteobacteria, followed by Firmicutes; the 2 phyla exhibited opposite changes with elevated temperature. Bacterial genera showed different abundances at different temperatures, in which Sediminibacterium maintained a stable abundance below 40 °C, while Ochrobactrum and Rhodococcus were enriched with elevated temperature and both showed their highest abundances at 40 °C. Functional prediction uncovered 39 identified KEGG pathways, and bacterial genes involved in the membrane transport pathway exhibited the highest abundance subject to heat (40 °C) during the growth of G. lucidum. In general, our findings illustrated the influence of temperatures on G. lucidum mycelial morphology and the bacterial community in the substrate, and the results will facilitate cultivation of this fungus.
