    Abstract: This study aimed to explore the targeted regulation of microRNA-214-3p (miR-214-3p) on sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase 2a (SERCA2a) and its mechanism on heart failure (HF). In this study, a rat model of HF was established by injecting ... ...

    Abstract This study aimed to explore the targeted regulation of microRNA-214-3p (miR-214-3p) on sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase 2a (SERCA2a) and its mechanism on heart failure (HF). In this study, a rat model of HF was established by injecting isoproterenol to detect the changes in heart function. Then the primary rat cardiomyocytes were extracted and cultured. The cells were divided into the normal group, HF model group, miR-214-3p mimic group, and inhibitor group according to treatment methods. The expression differences of SERCA2a in each group were detected. The binding sites of miR-214-3p and SERCA2a were predicted, wild-type or mutant SERCA2a was prepared and co-transfected into cardiomyocytes with mimic, and the targeting effect was detected by the dual-luciferase reporter gene. Finally, the systolic function of each group was detected by a single-cell systolic dynamic edge detection system. The results showed that cardiac output and left ventricular ejection fraction of HF rats were significantly lower than those of normal rats (P<0.05). The results of the cell test showed that messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression levels of SERCA2a in the model group and the mimic group were significantly lower than those in the mimic group (P<0.05), but there were no differences between normal group and inhibitor group (P>0.05). Target prediction revealed that miR-214-3p had a complementary pairing of 6 bases with the SERCA2a 3'non-coding region. After co-transfection with miR-214-3p mimic and wild-type SERCA2a expression vector, the dual-luciferase activity was significantly decreased (P<0.05). The percentage of maximal contraction amplitude, peak contraction time, and 50% diastolic time of cells in the model group and mimic group decreased significantly. The mimic group was significantly smaller (P<0.05), but there were no differences between the normal group and the inhibitor group (P>0.05). These results indicated that SERCA2a expression was significantly reduced in HF cells, and miR-214-3p could inhibit SERCA2a expression by targeting the SERCA2a 3'UTR region. Inhibition of miR-214-3p could promote the expression of SERCA2a, which in turn promoted the contractile function of HF rat cardiomyocytes.

    Abstract As the essential technical support for Metaverse, Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) has attracted the attention of many researchers. MAR applications rely on real-time processing of visual and audio data, and thus those heavy workloads can quickly drain the battery of a mobile device. To address such problem, edge-based solutions have appeared for handling some tasks that require more computing power. However, such strategies introduce a new trade-off: reducing the network latency and overall energy consumption requires limiting the size of the data sent to the edge server, which, in turn, results in lower accuracy. In this paper, we design an edge-based MAR system and propose a mathematical model to describe it and analyze the trade-off between latency, accuracy, server resources allocation and energy consumption. Furthermore, an algorithm named LEAO is proposed to solve this problem. We evaluate the performance of the LEAO and other related algorithms across various simulation scenarios. The results demonstrate the superiority of the LEAO algorithm. Finally, our work provides insight into optimization problem in edge-based MAR system for Metaverse.

    Abstract The Proboscidea, which includes modern elephants, were once the largest terrestrial animals among extant species. They suffered mass extinction during the Ice Age. As a unique branch on the evolutionary tree, the Proboscidea are of great significance for the study of living animals. In this study, we generate chromosome-scale and haplotype-resolved genome assemblies for two extant Proboscidea species (Asian Elephant, Elephas maximus and African Savannah Elephant, Loxodonta africana) using Pacbio, Hi-C, and DNBSEQ technologies. The assembled genome sizes of the Asian and African Savannah Elephant are 3.38 Gb and 3.31 Gb, with scaffold N50 values of 130 Mb and 122 Mb, respectively. Using Hi-C technology ~97% of the scaffolds are anchored to 29 pseudochromosomes. Additionally, we identify ~9 Mb Y-linked sequences for each species. The high-quality genome assemblies in this study provide a valuable resource for future research on ecology, evolution, biology and conservation of Proboscidea species.

    Abstract Snakes are a vital component of wildlife resources and are widely distributed across the globe. The many-banded krait Bungarus multicinctus is a highly venomous snake found across Southern Asia and central and southern China. Snakes are an ancient reptile group, and their genomes can provide important clues for understanding the evolutionary history of reptiles. Additionally, genomic resources play a crucial role in comprehending the evolution of all species. However, snake genomic resources are still scarce. Here, we present a highly contiguous genome of B. multicinctus with a size of 1.51 Gb. The genome contains a repeat content of 40.15%, with a total length exceeding 620 Mb. Additionally, we annotated a total of 24,869 functional genes. This research is of great significance for comprehending the evolution of B. multicinctus and provides genomic information on the genes involved in venom gland functions.

    Abstract For guided bone regeneration (GBR) in clinical orthopedics, the importance of a suitable scaffold which can provide the space needed for bone regeneration and simultaneously promotes the new bone formation cannot be overemphasized. Due to its excellent biocompatibility, mechanical strength, and similarity in structure and composition to natural bone, the mineralized collagen-based scaffolds have been increasingly considered as promising GBR scaffolds.

    Abstract Background: Research on genetic diversity based on mitochondrial DNA of giant pandas mainly focused on a single marker or a few genes.
    Objective: To provide a more comprehensive assessment of the genetic diversity on giant pandas based on 13 mitochondrial protein coding genes.
    Methods: We assembled 13 protein coding genes in the mitochondrial genome of the giant panda based on the whole genome sequencing data, including ND1, ND2, COX1, COX2, ATP8, ATP6, COX3, ND3, ND4L, ND4, ND5, ND6 and Cyt b.
    Results: We successfully obtained long sequence of 11,416 base pairs with all 13 genes for 110 giant panda individual, accounting for 67.93% in length of the mitochondrial reference genome. Haplotype diversity was 0.9518 ± 0.009 and nucleotide diversity (π) was 0.00157 ± 0.00014. We detected three new haplotypes, including GPC10 and GPC21 for the CR sequence and GPB12 for the Cyt b gene.
    Conclusion: These multi-gene sequences provided more genetic variable information to compare captive and wild giant panda population.
