Abstract
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have become more frequent, intense and extreme in oceanic systems in the past decade, resulting in mass mortality events of marine invertebrates and devastating coastal marine ecosystems. While metabolic homeostasis is a fundamental requirement in stress tolerance, little is known about its role under intensifying MHWs conditions. Here, we investigated impacts of MHWs on the metabolism in pearl oysters (Pinctada maxima) - an ecologically and economically significant bivalve species in tropical ecosystems. Activities of digestive enzymes (gastric proteases, lipases, and amylases) did not significantly respond to various scenario of recurrent MHWs varying from 24 °C to 28 °C (moderate) and 32 °C (severe). The metabolomics analysis revealed nine and five key metabolism pathways under both MHWs scenarios. Specifically, pathways associated with energy metabolism were impaired by moderate MHWs, manifesting in downregulation of differential metabolite (The nicotinic acid and N-acetyl-glutamic acid). The content of CDP-ethanolamine was significantly decrease, and the perturbations of oxidative stress caused by the decreased of content of D-glutamine. Metabolites related to a suite of body functions (e.g., the lipid metabolism, biomineralization, and antioxidant defenses) showed significantly negative responses by severe MHWs. These findings reveal the metabolic impairments of marine bivalves when subjected to MHWs varying in intensity and frequency, implying cascading consequences which deserve further investigation.

Abstract
Co-occurrence and mutual exclusivity of genomic alterations may reflect the existence of genetic interactions, potentially shaping distinct biological phenotypes and impacting therapeutic response in breast cancer. However, our understanding of them remains limited. Herein, we investigate a large-scale multi-omics cohort (n = 873) and a real-world clinical sequencing cohort (n = 4,405) including several clinical trials with detailed treatment outcomes and perform functional validation in patient-derived organoids, tumor fragments, and in vivo models. Through this comprehensive approach, we construct a network comprising co-alterations and mutually exclusive events and characterize their therapeutic potential and underlying biological basis. Notably, we identify associations between TP53mut-AURKAamp and endocrine therapy resistance, germline BRCA1mut-MYCamp and improved sensitivity to PARP inhibitors, and TP53mut-MYBamp and immunotherapy resistance. Furthermore, we reveal that precision treatment strategies informed by co-alterations hold promise to improve patient outcomes. Our study highlights the significance of genetic interactions in guiding genome-informed treatment decisions beyond single driver alterations.

MARINE ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 195:106345. [PMID: 38224626 DOI: 10.1016/j.marenvres.2024.106345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
To evaluate the physiological responses to titanium dioxide nanoparticles exposure in pearl oysters (Pinctada fucata martensii), pearl oysters were exposed for 14 days to different levels (0.05, 0.5, and 5 mg/L) of nano-TiO2 suspensions, while a control group did not undergo any nano-TiO2 treatment. And then recovery experiments were performed for 7 days without nano-TiO2 exposure. At days 1, 3, 7, 14, 17, and 21, hepatopancreatic tissue samples were collected and used to examine the activities of protease, amylase, lipase, catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD), lysozyme (LYS), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), and acid phosphatase (ACP). The microstructure of the nacreous layer in shell was also analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. Results showed that pearl oysters exposed to 5 mg/L of TiO2 nanoparticles had significantly lower protease, amylase, and lipase activities and significantly higher CAT, SOD, GPx, LYS, ACP, and AKP activities than control pearl oysters did even after 7-day recovery (P-values <0.05). Pearl oysters exposed to 0.5 mg/L or 0.05 mg/L of TiO2 nanoparticles had lower protease, amylase, and lipase activities and higher CAT, SOD, GPx, LYS, ACP, and AKP activities than control pearl oysters did during the exposure period. After 7-day recovery, no significant differences in protease, lipase, SOD, GPx, CAT, ACP, AKP, or LYS activities were observed between pearl oysters exposed to 0.05 mg/L of TiO2 nanoparticles and control pearl oysters (P-values >0.05). In the period from day 7 to day 14, indistinct and irregular nacreous layer crystal structure in shell was observed. This study demonstrates that TiO2 nanoparticles exposure influences the levels of digestion, immune function, oxidative stress, and biomineralization in pearl oysters, which can be partially and weakly alleviated by short-term recovery. These findings contribute to understanding the mechanisms of action of TiO2 nanoparticles in bivalves. However, studies should evaluate whether a longer recovery period can restore to their normal levels in the future.

Abstract
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have increased in frequency, intensity, and duration in recent years causing significant impacts on marine organisms and fisheries. This study explores the physiological changes of juvenile greater amberjacks (Seriola dumerili) that cope with MHWs. Results showed that physiological parameters were significantly affected by the intensity, duration of MHWs or interaction of two factors (P < 0.05). Repeated MHWs in which water temperatures were increased (24 °C to 28 °C and 32 °C) resulted in changes in enzyme activity levels (catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione (GSH)), as well as the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) for antioxidant defense, immune function (acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lysozyme (LYZ)), and energy metabolism (including triglycerides (TG), glucose (GLU), aspartate aminotransferase (GOT), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH)). The activities of enzymes, including those associated with antioxidant defense, immune function, and energy metabolism, changed significantly in relation to short-term MHWs, indicating a thermal stress response. When S. dumerili were exposed to repeated-MHWs, thermal stress responses increased at 28 °C (T28) and decreased at 32 °C (T32). These results exhibited the inability of S. dumerili to acclimate to severe thermal stress from MHWs. This study examined S. dumerili responses to MHWs and assessed the physiological adaptation of juvenile greater amberjacks to MHWs.

Abstract
Introduction In the pearl culture industry, a major challenge is the overactive immunological response in pearl oysters resulting from allotransplantation, leading to shell-bead rejection and death. To better understand the molecular mechanisms of postoperative recovery and the regulatory role of DNA methylation in gene expression, we analyzed the changes in DNA methylation levels after allotransplantation in pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii, and elucidated the regulatory function of DNA methylation in promoter activity of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) gene. Methods We constructed nine DNA methylomes at different time points after allotransplantation and used bisulfite genomic sequencing PCR technology (BSP) to verify the methylation status in the promoter of nAChR. We performed Dual luciferase assays to determine the effect of the dense methylation region in the promoter on transcriptional activity and used DNA pull-down and mass spectrometry analysis to assess the capability of transcription factor binding with the dense methylation region. Result The DNA methylomes reveal that CG-type methylation is predominant, with a trend opposite to non-CG-type methylation. Promoters, particularly CpG island-rich regions, were less frequently methylated than gene function elements. We identified 5,679 to 7,945 differentially methylated genes (DMGs) in the gene body, and 2,146 to 3,385 DMGs in the promoter at each time point compared to the pre-grafting group. Gene ontology and pathway enrichment analyses showed that these DMGs were mainly associated with "cellular process", "Membrane", "Epstein-Barr virus infection", "Notch signaling pathway", "Fanconi anemia pathway", and "Nucleotide excision repair". Our study also found that the DNA methylation patterns of the promoter region of nAChR gene were consistent with the DNA methylomics data. We further demonstrated that the dense methylation region in the promoter of nAChR affects transcriptional activity, and that the methylation status in the promoter modulates the binding of different transcription factors, particularly transcriptional repressors. Conclusion These findings enhance our understanding of the immune response and regulation mechanism induced by DNA methylation in pearl oysters after allotransplantation.

Abstract
Biologists monitoring freshwater mussel (order Unionida) populations rely on behavioral, often subjective, signs to identify moribund ("sick") or stressed mussels, such as gaping valves and slow response to probing, and they lack clinical indicators to support a diagnosis. As part of a multi-year study to investigate causes of reoccurring mortality of pheasantshell (Ortmanniana pectorosa; synonym Actinonaias pectorosa) in the Clinch River, Virginia and Tennessee, USA, we analyzed the hemolymph metabolome of a subset of mussels from the 2018 sampling period. Mussels at the mortality sites were diagnosed in the field as affected (case) or unaffected (control) based on behavioral and physical signs. Hemolymph was collected in the field by non-lethal methods from the anterior adductor muscle for analysis. We used ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectroscopy to detect targeted and untargeted metabolites in hemolymph and compared metabolomic profiles by field assessment of clinical status. Targeted biomarker analysis found 13 metabolites associated with field assessments of clinical status. Of these, increased gamma-linolenic acid and N-methyl-l-alanine were most indicative of case mussels, while adenine and inosine were the best indicators of control mussels. Five pathways in the targeted analysis differed by clinical status; two of these, purine metabolism and glycerophospholipid metabolism, were also indicated in the untargeted analysis. In the untargeted nalysis, 22 metabolic pathways were associated with clinical status. Many of the impacted pathways in the case group were catabolic processes, such as degradation of amino acids and fatty acids. Hierarchical clustering analysis matched clinical status in 72% (18 of 25) of mussels, with control mussels more frequently (5 of 16) not matching clinical status. Our study demonstrated that metabolomic analysis of hemolymph is suitable for assessing mussel condition and complements field-based indicators of health.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 is believed to be a contributing factor to innate immunity. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) has a positive effect on inhibiting nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)-mediated inflammation. The underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear, particularly in mollusks. Consequently, this study will investigate the process of vitamin D3/VDR regulating NF-κB pathway and further explore their functions on inflammation, autophagy, and apoptosis in abalone Haliotis discus hannai. Results showed that knockdown of VDR by using siRNA and dsRNA of VDR in vitro and in vivo led to more intense response of NF-κB signaling to lipopolysaccharide and higher level of apoptosis and autophagy. In addition, 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulation after VDR silencing could partially alleviate apoptosis and induce autophagy. Overexpression of VDR restricted the K48-polyubiquitin chain-dependent inhibitor of κB (IκB) ubiquitination and apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing CARD (ASC) oligomerization. Besides, VDR silencing resulted in increase of ASC speck formation. In further mechanistic studies, we showed that VDR can directly bind to IκB and IKK1 in vitro and in vivo. In the feeding trial, H&E staining, TUNEL, and electron microscope results showed that vitamin D3 deficiency (0 IU/kg) could recruit more basophilic cells and increase more TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells and lipid droplets (LDs) than vitamin D3 supplement (1000 IU/kg and 5000 IU/kg). In summary, abalone VDR plays a negative regulator role in NF-κB-mediated inflammation via interacting with IκB and inhibiting ubiquitin-dependent degradation of IκB. Vitamin D3 in combination with VDR is essential to establish a delicate balance between autophagy and apoptosis in response to inflammation.

AQUACULTURE NUTRITION 2023; 2023:3061649.

Abstract
Vitamins D and K are essential fat-soluble nutrients that intervene in bone development processes among other biological functions. The present study is aimed at investigating the potential combined effect of dietary supplementation with vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and vitamin K3 (menadione) in gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) larvae. For that purpose, seabream diets were supplemented with different combinations of vitamin D3/vitamin K3 (mg/kg diet) as follows: 0.00/0, 0.06/70, 0.06/170, 0.13/70, 0.13/170, 0.40/70, and 0.40/170. Feeding gilthead seabream larvae (22 days post hatch) for 21 days with the diets supplemented with 0.06-0.13 mg/kg vitamin D3 and 70 mg/kg vitamin K3 (diets 0.06/70 and 0.13/70) led to the highest larval growth and survival and the highest expression of important biomarkers of both bone development and health, such as bmp2, osx, and mgp, and calcium homeostasis, such as pthrp and casr. However, the increased supplementation with both vitamins at 0.40 mg/kg vitamin D3 and 170 mg/kg vitamin K3 (diet 0.40/170) reduced larval growth and survival, downregulated bmp2 and pthrp expressions, and upregulated osx and mgp, causing an unbalance in the relative expression of these genes. The results of the present study have shown the interaction between vitamin D3 supplementation and vitamin K3 supplementation in larval performance and gene expression related to bone development and calcium homeostasis, denoting the significance of a correct balance between both vitamins in larval diets.

Abstract
The Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) is widely used in monitoring programs and in ecotoxicological studies to examine the biological effects of physicochemical parameter changes and the impact of chemical pollutants. Metabolomics has recently demonstrated high potential to gain further insight into the molecular effects of chemical exposure and the success of its application is dependent on the extent of prior metabolomics knowledge available on the target organism. Therefore, the purpose of this study was the investigation of the metabolites of five different functional tissues of male and female Mediterranean mussels (digestive gland, foot, gill and gonad tissues and in the remaining soft tissues) accessible to the analysis using the most common sample preparation recommended for tissue analysis (i.e. Bligh & Dyer). Metabolic fingerprints were acquired via liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry and the identification was based on an internal database developed in the laboratory. It led to the identification of 110 metabolites, among which amino acids, carboxylic acids, purine and pyrimidine metabolites were often the most abundant. The metabolic contents of the five tissues quantitatively and qualitatively differed, with a clear distinction between male and female contents observed in the gonads and digestive glands. These results underline the importance of selecting the most suitable tissue and sex to study the impact of contamination on metabolism and the need for further research to deeper characterize the metabolome of this organism.

Abstract
Analyses of the transcriptome and metabolome were conducted to clarify alterations of key genes and metabolites in pearl oysters following exposure to short-term hypoxic treatment. We totally detected 209 DEGs between the control and hypoxia groups. Enrichment analysis indicated the enrichment of GO terms including "oxidation-reduction process", "ECM organization", "chaperone cofactor-dependent protein refolding", and "ECM-receptor interaction" KEGG pathway by the DEGs. In addition, between the two groups, a total of 28 SDMs were identified, which were implicated in 13 metabolic pathways, such as "phenylalanine metabolism", "D-amino acid metabolism", and "aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis". Results suggest that pearl oysters are exposed to oxidative stress and apoptosis under short-term hypoxia. Also, pearl oysters might adapt to short-term hypoxic treatment by increasing antioxidant activity, modulating immune and biomineralization activities, maintaining protein homeostasis, and reorganizing the cytoskeleton. The results of our study help unveil the mechanisms by which pearl oysters respond adaptively to short-term hypoxia.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that the bile acid regulates type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) through gut microbiota-host interactions. However, the mechanisms underlying such interactions have been unclear. Here, we found that glycoursodeoxycholic acid (GUDCA) positively regulates gut microbiota by altering bile acid metabolism. GUDCA in mice resulted in higher taurolithocholic acid (TLCA) level and Bacteroides vulgatus abundance. Together, these changes resulted in the activation of the adipose G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor, GPBAR1 (TGR5) and upregulated expression of uncoupling protein UCP-1, resulting in elevation of white adipose tissue thermogenesis. The anti-T2DM effects of GUDCA are linked with the regulation of the bile acid and gut microbiota composition. This study suggests that altering bile acid metabolism, modifying the gut microbiota may be of value for the treatment of T2DM.

Abstract
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) have increased in intensity and frequency in global oceans, causing deleterious effects on many marine organisms and ecosystems they support. Bivalves are among the most vulnerable taxonomic groups to intensifying MHWs, yet little is known about the underlying mechanisms. Here, we investigated the impact of MHWs on the digestive metabolism of pearl oysters (Pinctada maxima). Two moderate and severe scenarios of MHWs were performed by increasing seawater temperature respectively from 24 °C to 28 °C and 32 °C for 3 days. When subjected to MHWs and with increasing intensity, pearl oysters significantly enhanced their digestive enzymatic activities, such as lipase and amylase. LC-MS-based metabolomics revealed negative responses in the lipid metabolism (e.g., steroid biosynthesis, glycerophospholipid metabolism, and sphingolipid metabolism), the amino acid metabolism (e.g., glutamate, histidine, arginine, and proline), and the B-vitamins metabolism. These findings indicate that the digestive metabolism of marine bivalves can likely succumb to intensifying MHWs events.

Abstract
During pearl culture, the excess immune responses may induce nucleus rejection and death of pearl oysters after transplantation. To better understand the immune response and pearl formation, lipidomic analysis was applied to investigate changes in the serum lipid profile of pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii following transplantation. In total, 296 lipid species were identified by absolute quantitation. During wound healing, the content of TG and DG initially increased and then decreased after 3 days of transplantation with no significant differences, while the level of C22:6 decreased significantly on days 1 and 3. In the early stages of transplantation, sphingosine was upregulated, whereas PC and PUFAs were downregulated in transplanted pearl oyster. PI was upregulated during pearl sac development stages. GP and LC-PUFA levels were upregulated during pearl formation stage. In order to identify enriched metabolic pathways, pathway enrichment analysis was conducted. Five metabolic pathways were found significantly enriched, namely glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor biosynthesis, glycerophospholipid metabolism, alpha-linolenic acid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism and arachidonic acid metabolism. Herein, results suggested that the lipids involved in immune response, pearl sac maturation, and pearl formation in the host pearl oyster after transplantation, which might lead to an improvement in the survival rate and pearl quality of transplanted pearl oyster.

Abstract
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary vitamin D3 supplementation on the growth performance, tissue Ca and P concentrations, antioxidant capacity, immune response and lipid metabolism in Litopenaeus vannamei larvae. A total of 720 shrimp (initial weight 0·50 ± 0·01 g) were randomly distributed into six treatments, each of which had three duplicates of forty shrimp per duplicate. Six isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets were formulated to contain graded vitamin D3 (0·18, 0·23, 0·27, 0·48, 0·57 and 0·98 mg/kg of vitamin D3, measured) supplementation levels. The results revealed that L. vannamei fed diet containing 0·48 mg/kg of vitamin D3 achieved the best growth performance. Compared with the control group, supplementing 0·48 mg/kg of vitamin D3 significantly increased (P < 0·05) the activities of catalase, total antioxidative capacity, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase in serum and hepatopancreas. Expression levels of antioxidant and immune-related genes were synchronously increased (P < 0·05). Carapace P and Ca concentrations were increased (P < 0·05) with the increased vitamin D3 supplementation levels. Further analysis of lipid metabolism-related genes expression showed that shrimp fed 0·48 mg of vitamin D3 per kg diet showed the highest value in the expression of lipid synthesis-related genes, while shrimp fed 0·98 mg of vitamin D3 per kg diet showed the highest value in the expression of lipolysis-related genes. In conclusion, the results of present study indicated that dietary supplementation of 0·48 mg/kg of vitamin D3 could increase Ca and P concentrations, improve antioxidant capacity and immune response, and influence lipid metabolism in L. vannamei.

Abstract
Air pollution, especially PM2.5 (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter ≤2.5 µm) in China, is severe and related to a variety of diseases while the potential mechanisms have not been clearly clarified yet. This study was conducted using a randomized crossover trial protocol among young and healthy college students. Plasma samples were collected before, during, and post two typical air pollution waves with a washout interval of at least 2 weeks under true and sham air purification treatments, respectively. A total of 144 blood samples from 24 participants were included in the final analysis. Metabolomics analysis for the plasma samples was completed by Ultrahigh Performance Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS). Orthogonal Partial Least Squares Discrimination Analysis (OPLS-DA) and linear mixed-effect models were used to identify the differentially expressed metabolites and their associations with PM2.5 exposure. MetaboAnalyst 5.0 was further used to conduct pathway enrichment analysis and correlation analysis of differentially expressed metabolites. A total of 40 metabolites were identified to be differentially expressed between the true and sham air purification treatments, and eleven metabolites showed consistent significant changes upon outdoor, indoor, and time-weighted personal PM2.5 exposures. Short-term exposure to PM2.5 may cause disturbances in metabolic pathways such as linoleic acid metabolism, arachidonic acid metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism.

Abstract
AP-1 is an important transcription factor for cell proliferation/differentiation and animal immunity/development; however, its role in research in shellfish is poorly understood. Here, the cDNA of AP-1 gene from Pinctada fucata martensii was characterized. Its expression was detected in all six examined tissues, and a high level was observed in the gill and hepatopancreas. Analysis of the developmental transcriptomes showed that the PmAP-1 gene expression levels were high during D-stage larval and spat stages. The gene also exhibited a significantly high expression under cold tolerance stress. SNP analysis of the exon region and 5' flanking region of PmAP-1 revealed 19 SNPs of which 8 showed significant differences between cold tolerance selection line and base stock. Furthermore, three haplotypes generated by the SNPs of PmAP-1 were significantly associated with cold tolerance, respectively.These results suggest that the PmAP-1 gene plays an important role in the response of P. f. martensii to low temperature stress. These SNPs and haplotypes of PmAP-1 may be related to the cold tolerance of P. f. martensii, and could be candidate markers potentially for further selective breeding.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 (vit-D3), as an indispensable and fat-soluble nutrient, is associated with skeletal mineralization and health in mammals. However, such associations have not been well studied in economically important crustaceans. Six levels of vit-D3 with isonitrogenous and isolipidic diets were used to feed Eriocheir sinensis. The range of optimal vit-D3 requirements is 5685.43-10,000 IU/kg based on growth. The crabs fed 9000 IU/kg vit-D3 showed the best growth performance. This vit-D3 dose significantly increased antioxidant capacity in the hepatopancreas and intestine and was optimal for molting and innate immunity via quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. Transcriptomics analyses indicate that vit-D3 could alter protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, steroid biosynthesis, and antigen processing and presentation. As shown by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, vit-D3 could improve vitamin D receptor, retinoic acid receptor, and C-type lectins concentrations. The 1α,25-dihydroxy vit-D3 content in serum was significantly higher in 3000-9000 IU/kg vit-D3. The study suggests that dietary vit-D3 and its metabolites can regulate molting and innate immunity in crabs.

Abstract
The biological processes of Chlamys farreri (C. farreri), an economically important shellfish, are affected when exposed to Cd2+. In this study, changes to biological processes and metabolite levels in C. farreri were examined when exposed to Cd2+. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem TOF mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF/MS)-based untargeted metabolomics was used to examine changes in the metabolism of C. farreri gill tissue exposed to 0.050 mg/L Cd2+ for 96 h in a natural environment. Sixty-eight metabolites with significant differences were screened by multivariate statistical analysis. Eleven enriched functional pathways displayed significant changes in inactivity. Differential metabolites, mainly C00157 and C00350, have a significant impact on functional pathways and can be used as potential major biomarkers. Lipid phosphorylation, disruption of signal transduction, and autophagy activation were observed to change in C. farreri when exposed to Cd. The metabolome information supplements research on C. farreri exposure to heavy metals and provides a platform for further multi-omics analysis.

J Immunother Cancer 2021; 9:jitc-2021-002383.

Abstract
Purpose Regulatory T cells (Tregs) heavily infiltrate triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and their accumulation is affected by the metabolic reprogramming in cancer cells. In the present study, we sought to identify cancer cell-intrinsic metabolic modulators correlating with Tregs infiltration in TNBC. Experimental design Using the RNA-sequencing data from our institute (n=360) and the Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium TNBC cohort (n=320), we calculated the abundance of Tregs in each sample and evaluated the correlation between gene expression levels and Tregs infiltration. Then, in vivo and in vitro experiments were performed to verify the correlation and explore the underlying mechanism. Results We revealed that GTP cyclohydrolase 1 (GCH1) expression was positively correlated with Tregs infiltration and high GCH1 expression was associated with reduced overall survival in TNBC. In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that GCH1 increased Tregs infiltration, decreased apoptosis, and elevated the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)-positive fraction. Metabolomics analysis indicated that GCH1 overexpression reprogrammed tryptophan metabolism, resulting in L-5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) accumulation in the cytoplasm accompanied by kynurenine accumulation and tryptophan reduction in the supernatant. Subsequently, aryl hydrocarbon receptor, activated by 5-HTP, bound to the promoter of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and thus enhanced the transcription of IDO1. Furthermore, the inhibition of GCH1 by 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine (DAHP) decreased IDO1 expression, attenuated tumor growth, and enhanced the tumor response to PD-1 blockade immunotherapy. Conclusions Tumor-cell-intrinsic GCH1 induced immunosuppression through metabolic reprogramming and IDO1 upregulation in TNBC. Inhibition of GCH1 by DAHP serves as a potential immunometabolic strategy in TNBC.

Abstract
This study investigates the effects of vitamin D3 (VD3) on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, immunity and molting of larval Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis. A total of 6,000 larvae (7.52 ± 0.10 mg) were fed with six isonitrogenous and isolipidic experimental diets with different levels of dietary VD3 (0, 3000, 6000, 9000, 12000 and 36000 IU/kg) respectively for 23 days. The highest survival and molting frequency were found in crabs fed 6000 IU/kg VD3. Weight gain, specific growth rate, and carapace growth significantly increased in crabs fed 3000 and 6000 IU/kg VD3 compared to the control. Broken-line analysis of molting frequency, weight gain and specific growth rate against dietary VD3 levels indicates that the optimal VD3 requirement for larval crabs is 4825-5918 IU/kg. The highest whole-body VD3 content occurred in the 12000 IU/kg VD3 group, and the 25-dihydroxy VD3 content decreased with the increase of dietary VD3. The malonaldehyde content was lower than the control. Moreover, the superoxide dismutase activity, glutathione peroxidase and total antioxidant capacity of crab fed 6000 IU/kg VD3 were significantly higher than in control. Crabs fed 9000 IU/kg showed the highest survival after 120 h of salinity stress, and the relative mRNA expressions indicate vitamin D receptor (VDR) is the important regulatory element in molting and innate immunity. The molting-related gene expressions showed that the response of crab to salinity was self-protective. This study would contribute to a new understanding of the molecular basis underlying molting and innate immunity regulation by vitamin D3 in E. sinensis.

Abstract
The protein inhibitor of activated STAT (PIAS) functions in diverse aspects, including immune response, cell apoptosis, cell differentiation, and proliferation. In the present study, the PIAS in the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii was characterized. The sequence features of PmPIAS were similar to that of other PIAS sequences with PIAS typical domains, including SAP, Pro-Ile-Asn-Ile-Thr (PINIT), RLD domain, AD, and S/T-rich region. Homologous analysis showed that PmPIAS protein sequence showed the conserved primary structure compared with other species. Ribbon representation of PIAS protein sequences also showed a conserved structure among species, and the PINIT domain and RLD domain showed the conserved structure compared with the sequence of Homo sapiens. The expression pattern of PmPIAS in different tissues showed significant high expression in the gonad. PmPIAS also exhibited a significantly higher expression in the 1 and 2 days after cold tolerance stress (17°C) and showed its potential in the cold tolerance. The SNP analysis of the exon region of PmPIAS obtained 18 SNPs, and among them, 11 SNPs showed significance among different genotypes and alleles between cold tolerance selection line and base stock, which showed their potential in the breeding for cold tolerance traits.

Abstract
Pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii is widely recognized for biomineralization and has been cultured for high-quality marine pearl production. To ascertain how dietary vitamin D3 (VD3) levels affect the features of pearl production by P. f. martensii and discover the mechanisms regulating this occurrence, five experimental diets with variable levels of VD3 were used with inclusion levels of 0, 500, 1,000, 3,000, and 10,000 IU/kg. The distinct inclusion levels were distributed into five experimental groups (EG1, EG2, EG3, EG4, and EG5). All the experimental groups were reared indoors except the control group (CG) reared at the sea. Pearl oysters, one year and a half old, were used in the grafting operation to culture pearls. During the growing period that lasted 137 days, EG3 had the highest survival rate, retention rate, and high-quality pearl rate. A similar trend was found for EG3 and CG with significantly higher pearl thickness and nacre deposition rates than other groups, but no significant differences were observed between them. A metabolomics profiling using GC–MS and LC–MS of pearl oysters fed with low quantities of dietary VD3 and optimal levels of dietary VD3 revealed 135 statistically differential metabolites (SDMs) (VIP > 1 and p < 0.05). Pathway analysis indicated that SDMs were involved in 32 pathways, such as phenylalanine metabolism, histidine metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, alanine aspartate and glutamate metabolism, arginine and proline metabolism, glycerolipid metabolism, amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism, and tyrosine metabolism. These results provide a theoretical foundation for understanding the impacts of VD3 on pearl production traits in pearl oyster and reinforce forthcoming prospects and application of VD3 in pearl oyster in aquaculture rearing conditions.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 18 (FGF18) plays an important functional role in skeletal growth and development. The FGF18 gene was characterized in pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii (PmFGF18) with the full-length sequence containing an open reading frame of 714 bp encoding 237 amino acids. The domain analysis of PmFGF18 showed a distinctive FGF domain, with a high similarity to FGF18 protein sequences from Crassostrea gigas (43.35%) and C. virginica (37.43%). PmFGF18 expression was revealed in all analyzed tissues with a significantly higher expression level in the fast-growing group than the slow-growing group. The analysis of PmFGF18 polymorphism demonstrated 33 SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the CDS and promoter region of PmFGF18 sequence. Association analysis revealed 19 SNPs (2 SNPs from CDS and 17 SNPs from the promoter region) associating significantly with growth traits. Among the associated SNPs, one SNP g.50918198 A > C was verified in the other breeding line. Therefore, PmFGF18 can be utilized as a candidate gene for growth, and its related SNPs could be used in selective breeding of P. f. martensii for the improvement of growth traits.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a highly heterogeneous disease, and metabolomics plays a hub role in predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM) related to COPD. This study thus aimed to reveal the role of induced sputum metabolomics in predicting COPD severity. In this pilot study, a total of 20 COPD patients were included. The induced sputum metabolites were assayed using a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) system. Five oxidative stress products (myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), neutrophil elastase (NE), and 8-iso-PGF2α) in induced sputum were measured by ELISA, and the metabolomic profiles were distinguished by principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) was used for pathway enrichment analysis, and a significant difference in induced sputum metabolomics was observed between moderate and severe COPD. The KEGG analysis revealed that the glycerophospholipid metabolism pathway was downregulated in severe COPD. Due to the critical role of glycerophospholipid metabolism in oxidative stress, significant negative correlations were discovered between glycerophospholipid metabolites and three oxidative stress products (SOD, MPO, and 8-iso-PGF2α). The diagnostic values of SOD, MPO, and 8-iso-PGF2α in induced sputum were found to exhibit high sensitivities and specificities in the prediction of COPD severity. Collectively, this study provides the first identification of the association between induced sputum metabolomic profiles and COPD severity, indicating the potential value of metabolomics in PPPM for COPD management. The study also reveals the correlation between glycerophospholipid metabolites and oxidative stress products and their value for predicting COPD severity.

Abstract
Edwardsiella ictaluri (E. ictaluri) causes severe infections in yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco), which leads to a massive loss in the aquaculture industry especially in catfish commercial production. Previous studies have confirmed that vitamin D3 is essential in immune regulation in mammals. Based on next-generation sequencing, this study explored the immunomodulatory effects of dietary vitamin D3 on the head kidney of yellow catfish after E. ictaluri challenge. Current results showed that increasing the content of dietary vitamin D3 within the experimental concentration range (1120IU/kg-16600IU/kg) could reduce the mortality of the yellow catfish after E. ictaluri challenge. Results of the next-generation sequencing showed that dietary vitamin D3 regulates the immune mechanism of the head kidney mainly through three pathways i.e. negative regulation of interferon-β production, negative regulation of interleukin-6 production and neutrophil chemotaxis. Proteins HSPA8, MAP4K4 and MRC1 may be involved in vitamin D3-mediated immunoregulation in the head kidney. qPCR results showed that increasing the content of dietary vitamin D3 can improve the immune function of the yellow catfish by down-regulating ifn-β and pro-inflammatory factors tnf-α, il1-β, il-6, il-8 and up-regulating the anti-inflammatory factor il-10. The above results indicated that dietary addition of vitamin D3 regulated the immune response in head kidney of yellow catfish and helped the fish to resist the negative effects of infection by E. ictaluri in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
We have developed a black shell colored selected line observed to have higher survival ability. In this study, to understand its immune capacity, total carotenoid content (TCC) of the black shell colored line (BG) and the control group (CG) were compared. Survival and retention rates, immunity and antioxidant capacity of BG were compared relative to CG at different times after grafting operation. The results showed that BG had significantly larger TCC than CG (P < 0.05). BG had significantly higher survival and retention rates than CG on days 7, 30 and 360 after grafting (P < 0.05). On days 360, BG had significantly larger pearl thickness than CG (P < 0.05). BG exhibited increased ACP, AKP, SOD, CAT, TAOC and LZ activity than the CG on 0 h, 12 h, 1 d, 3 d, 5 d, 7 d and 30 d after grafting. BG had higher expression levels of Fascin, SOD, CDK-7, CDAP-1, IRAK-1, α2m, GST-1, TRAF-3 and Caspase-2 than CG. The results suggested that BG had higher immune competence and pearl production performances, which is promising to improve pearl quality and production.

Abstract
The pearl oyster, Pinctada fucata martensii, produces high-quality pearls. During pearl production, excess immune and inflammatory response after transplantation will lead to nucleus rejection, pearl sac formation failure, and death of the host pearl oyster. The hemocyte transcriptome and fatty acid (FA) contents in the adductor muscle before and after transplantation were analyzed to investigate the response of pearl oyster P. f. martensii to allograft-induced stress from lipid metabolism. The hemocyte transcriptome analysis detected 193 lipid metabolism-related genes, such as the elongation of very long-chain FA protein 5, acyl-CoA 6-desaturase, cytochrome P450, phospholipase A2, glycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase, and prostaglandin-H2 d-isomerase. Pathway enrichment analyses revealed that these genes were mainly involved in the "biosynthesis of unsaturated FAs," "FA biosynthesis," "ARA metabolism," and "glycerolipid metabolism." An analysis of FA contents in the adductor muscle indicated no significant difference in the contents of lauric acid, myristic acid, pentadecanoic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid, heptadecanoic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, vaccenic acid, linoleic acid, arachidic acid, α-linolenic acid, eicosadienoic acid, docosadienoic acid, and 11,14,17-eicosatrienoic acid. However, ARA, DHA, and EPA in the adductor muscle after transplantation were significantly greater than those processed without grafting surgery. These results suggest that pearl oysters require more polyunsaturated FAs (PUFAs) to regulate their inflammatory and immune response after transplantation. However, their ability to biosynthesize unsaturated FAs is limited. Given these results, the addition of PUFA-containing diets or selection of a line with strong ability to biosynthesize unsaturated FAs may be valuable for pearl oyster recovery after transplantation.
