Abstract
Although thermosonication (TS) treatment has been widely used in food sterilization, the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) of bacteria with TS treatment has still concerned potential food safety and public health. The molecular mechanism of VBNC status of bacteria with TS treatment is not clearly known. Therefore, in this study, we used Shewanella putrefaciens, which was a common putrefactive bacteria in aquatic products, to study the VBNC state of bacteria with TS treatment. Firstly, our results revealed that S. putrefaciens still could enter the VBNC state after TS treatments: 50 kHz, 300 W, 30 min ultrasonic treatment and 70 °C heating; Subsequently, we found the VBNC state of S. putrefaciens can resist the damage of TS treatment, such as cell wall break, DNA degradation, etc; Finally, four-dimensional data-independent acquisition-based proteomics showed that under VBNC state, S. putrefaciens upregulated functional proteins to resist TS treatment, such as: ribosomal proteins to accelerate the synthesis of stress proteins to counteract TS treatments, ornithine decarboxylase SpeF and MraY to repair TS treatment-induced damage, etc. Meanwhile, S. putrefaciens downregulates metabolic and transport functional proteins such as dehydrogenase to reduce the metabolism. Importantly, among those proteins, the ribosomal transcriptional regulatory protein family, such as rpsB, etc, may be the key proteins for S. putrefaciens entering VBNC state. This finding can provide some new strategies for preventing VBNC status of bacteria with TS treatment, such as: inhibition of key proteins, etc.

Abstract
Despite intense research towards the understanding of abiotic stress adaptation in tomato, the physiological adjustments and transcriptome modulation induced by combined salt and low nitrate (low N) conditions remain largely unknown. Here, three traditional tomato genotypes were grown under long-term single and combined stresses throughout a complete growth cycle. Physiological, molecular, and growth measurements showed extensive morphophysiological modifications under combined stress compared to the control, and single stress conditions, resulting in the highest penalty in yield and fruit size. The mRNA sequencing performed on both roots and leaves of genotype TRPO0040 indicated that the transcriptomic signature in leaves under combined stress conditions largely overlapped that of the low N treatment, whereas root transcriptomes were highly sensitive to salt stress. Differentially expressed genes were functionally interpreted using GO and KEGG enrichment analysis, which confirmed the stress and the tissue-specific changes. We also disclosed a set of genes underlying the specific response to combined conditions, including ribosome components and nitrate transporters, in leaves, and several genes involved in transport and response to stress in roots. Altogether, our results provide a comprehensive understanding of above- and below-ground physiological and molecular responses of tomato to salt stress and low N treatment, alone or in combination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the clinical application of PARP inhibitors has brought hope to ovarian cancer, the problem of its resistance has become increasingly prominent. Therefore, clinical experts have been focused on finding specific indicators and therapeutic targets that can be used for resistance monitoring of PARP inhibitors. RESULTS By cfDNA detecting during Olaparib maintenance therapy in platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer, we found the presence of MRE11:p.K464R mutation was strongly associated with acquired Olaparib resistance. Structural analysis revealed that the MRE11:p.K464R mutation is situated at a critical site where the MRE11 protein interacts with other biomolecules, leading to potential structural and functional abnormalities of MRE11 protein. Functionally, MRE11:p.K464R mutation enhanced the tolerance of Olaparib by reducing the DNA damage. Mechanistically, MRE11:p.K464R mutation improved the efficiency of DNA damage repair and induce Olaparib resistance by enhancing its binding activity with the interacting proteins (including RAD50 and RPS3). Among them, the enhanced binding of MRE11:p.K464R mutation to RAD50/RPS3 facilitated non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) repair in tumor cells, thereby expanding the scope of research into acquired resistance to PARP inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS Our findings provide a theoretical basis for MRE11:p.K464R mutation as a specific indicator of resistance monitoring in Olaparib treatment, and the exploration of its resistance mechanism provides a novel insights for the formulation of combination ther therapies after Olaparib resistance.

Abstract
Smoking has been recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as the fifth highest threat to humanity. Smoking, a leading disease promoter, is a major risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases. NCDs account for 63% of all deaths worldwide. Passive smoking is also a health risk. Globally, more than a third of all people are regularly exposed to harmful smoke. Air pollution is a common global problem in which pollutants emitted into the atmosphere undergo a series of physical or chemical reactions to produce various oxidation products, which are often referred to as secondary pollutants. Secondary pollutants include ozone (O3), sulfur trioxide (SO3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and respirable particulate matter (PM). It is worth mentioning that third-hand smoke (THS), formed by the reaction of nicotine with second-hand smoke (SHS) caused by indoor O3 or nitrous acid (HONO), is a major indoor secondary pollutant that cannot be ignored. As a form of indoor air pollution that is relatively difficult to avoid, THS exists in any corner of the environment where smokers live. In this paper, we summarize the important research progress on the main components, detection, and toxicity of THS and look forward to future research directions. Scientific understanding of THS and its hazards will facilitate smoking bans in indoor and public places and raise public concern for how to prevent and remove THS.

Abstract
Re-establishment of desiccation tolerance is essential for the survival of germinated seeds facing water deficit in the soil. The molecular and ultrastructural features of desiccation tolerance maintenance and loss within the nuclear compartment are not fully resolved. In the present study, the impact of desiccation-induced genotoxic stress on nucleolar ultrastructure and ribogenesis was explored along the rehydration-dehydration cycle applied in standard seed vigorization protocols. Primed and overprimed Medicago truncatula seeds, obtained through hydropriming followed by desiccation (dry-back), were analysed. In contrast to desiccation-tolerant primed seeds, overprimed seeds enter irreversible germination and do not survive dry-back. Reactive oxygen species, DNA damage and expression profiles of antioxidant/DNA Damage Response genes were measured, as main hallmarks of the seed response to desiccation stress. Nuclear ultrastructural features were also investigated. Overprimed seeds subjected to dry-back revealed altered rRNA accumulation profiles and up-regulation of genes involved in ribogenesis control. The signal molecule PAP (3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate) accumulated during dry-back only in primed seeds, as a distinctive feature of desiccation tolerance. The presented results show the molecular and ultrastructural landscapes of the seed desiccation response, including substantial changes in nuclear organization.

Abstract
The foodborne pathogen Staphylococcus aureus continues to challenge the food industry due to the pathogenicity and tolerance of the bacterium. As a common storage condition for frozen food during transportation, distribution, and storage, freezing does not seem to be entirely safe due to the cold tolerance of S. aureus. In addition, our study indicated that the biofilm formation ability of S. aureus was significantly increased in response to freezing stress. To explore the molecular mechanism regulating the response to freezing stress, the proteomics signature of S. aureus after freezing stress based on tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was analyzed. Gene Ontology and pathway analysis revealed that ribosome function, metabolism, RNA repair, and stress response proteins were differentially regulated (P < 0.05). Furthermore, transpeptidase sortase A, biofilm operon icaADBC HTH-type negative transcriptional regulator IcaR, and HTH-type transcriptional regulator MgrA were involved in the modulation of increased biofilm formation in response to freezing stress (P < 0.05). Moreover, significant lysine acetylation and malonylation signals in the S. aureus response to freezing stress were observed. Collectively, the current work provides additional insight for comprehending the molecular mechanism of S. aureus in response to freezing stress and presents potential targets for developing strategies to control S. aureus. KEY POINTS: • TMT proteomic analysis was first used on S. aureus in response to freezing stress. • Ribosome-, metabolism-, and biofilm-related proteins change after freezing stress. • Increased biofilm formation in S. aureus responded to freezing stress.

Abstract
Ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3), a member of 40S small ribosomal subunit, is a multifunctional protein with various extra-ribosomal functions including DNA repair endonuclease activity and is secreted from cancer cells. Therefore, antibodies with high specificity against rpS3 protein could be useful cancer biomarkers. In this study, polyclonal antibody (pAb) and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were raised against rpS3 protein and epitope mapping was performed for each antibody; the amino acid residues of rpS3 were scanned from amino acid 185 to 243 through peptide scanning to reveal the epitopes of each mAb. Results showed that pAb R2 has an epitope from amino acid 203 to 230, mAb M7 has an epitope from amino acid 213 to 221, and mAb M8 has an epitope from amino acid 197 to 219. Taken together, novel mAbs and pAb against rpS3 were raised and mapped against rpS3 with different specific epitopes.

Abstract
Described by Guido Fanconi almost 100 years ago, Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disease characterized by developmental abnormalities, bone marrow failure (BMF) and cancer predisposition. The proteins encoded by FA-mutated genes (FANC proteins) and assembled in the so-called FANC/BRCA pathway have key functions in DNA repair and replication safeguarding, which loss leads to chromosome structural aberrancies. Therefore, since the 1980s, FA has been considered a genomic instability and chromosome fragility syndrome. However, recent findings have demonstrated new and unexpected roles of FANC proteins in nucleolar homeostasis and ribosome biogenesis, the alteration of which impacts cellular proteostasis. Here, we review the different cellular, biochemical and molecular anomalies associated with the loss of function of FANC proteins and discuss how these anomalies contribute to BMF by comparing FA to other major inherited BMF syndromes. Our aim is to determine the extent to which alterations in the DNA damage response in FA contribute to BMF compared to the consequences of the loss of function of the FANC/BRCA pathway on the other roles of the pathway.

Abstract
Tobacco smoke is an environmental pollutant that can cause follicle destruction and oocyte dysfunction. Thirdhand smoke (THS) is residual tobacco smoke existing in the environment long after cigarettes have been extinguished, which can react with other environmental compounds to produce secondary pollutants. THS contains a variety of toxic and harmful chemicals, such as nicotine and 1-(N-methyl-N-nitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridinyl)-4-butanal (NNA), a logical biomarker of THS exposure. The health hazards of THS exposure and its components have been researched in recent years. In this review, we have summarized research progress on the effects of THS exposure on organs in mice and humans especially on the reproductive system. This review may help evaluate the health risks of THS, in particular reproduction and offspring health. We hope this review will guide public health education on the dangers of THS exposure and promotion of healthy living habits.
