Abstract
Third-generation sequencing technology has found widespread application in the genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenetic research of both human and livestock genetics. This technology offers significant advantages in the sequencing of complex genomic regions, the identification of intricate structural variations, and the production of high-quality genomes. Its attributes, including long sequencing reads, obviation of PCR amplification, and direct determination of DNA/RNA, contribute to its efficacy. This review presents a comprehensive overview of third-generation sequencing technologies, exemplified by single-molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT) and Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT). Emphasizing the research advancements in livestock genomics, the review delves into genome assembly, structural variation detection, transcriptome sequencing, and epigenetic investigations enabled by third-generation sequencing. A comprehensive analysis is conducted on the application and potential challenges of third-generation sequencing technology for genome detection in livestock. Beyond providing valuable insights into genome structure analysis and the identification of rare genes in livestock, the review ventures into an exploration of the genetic mechanisms underpinning exemplary traits. This review not only contributes to our understanding of the genomic landscape in livestock but also provides fresh perspectives for the advancement of research in this domain.

[PMID: 38181838 DOI: 10.1016/j.toxicon.2024.107604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
Ustiloxins is a mycotoxin produced by the metabolism of Rice false smut. Studies have shown that Ustiloxins may be toxic to animals, but there is still a lack of toxicological evidence. The liver, as the main organ for the biotransformation of foreign chemicals, may be the direct target organ of Ustiloxins toxicity. In this study, we found that cell viability decreased in a dose- and time-dependent manner when BNL CL.2 cells were treated with different concentrations of Ustiloxins (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 100, 150 and 200 μg/mL) for 24 and 48 h. In addition, scanning electron microscope observation showed that the cell membrane of the experimental group was damaged, with the appearance of apoptotic bodies. Moreover, the ROS and GSH levels were significantly increased in cells exposed to Ustiloxins. We analyzed the key action targets of Ustiloxins on hepatocyte injury using full-length transcriptomics. A total of 1099 differentially expressed genes were screened, of which 473 genes were up-regulated, and 626 genes were down-regulated. Besides, we also found that the expression of MCM7 and CDC45 in BNL CL.2 cells treated with Ustiloxins decreased, and the expression of CCl-2, CYP1b1, CYP4f13, and GSTM1 increased according to qRT-PCR. Ustiloxins might change CYP450 and GST-related genes, affect DNA replication and cell cycle, and lead to oxidative stress and liver cell injury.
