    Abstract CircRNAs are covalently closed-loop single-stranded RNA molecules ubiquitously expressing in eukaryotes. As an important member of the endogenous ncRNA family, circRNAs are associated with diverse biological processes and can regulate transcription, modulate alternative splicing, and interact with miRNAs or proteins. Compared to abundant advances in animals, studies of circRNAs in plants are rapidly emerging. The databases and analysis tools for plant circRNAs are constantly being developed. Large numbers of circRNAs have been identified and characterized in plants and proved to play regulatory roles in plant growth, development, and stress responses. Here, we review the biogenesis, characteristics, bioinformatics resources, and biological functions of plant circRNAs, and summarize the distinct circularization features and differentially expression patterns comparison with animal-related results.

    Abstract Plant transcriptomes encompass a large number of functional non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), only some of which have protein-coding capacity. Since their initial discovery, ncRNAs have been classified into two broad categories based on their biogenesis and mechanisms of action, housekeeping ncRNAs and regulatory ncRNAs. With advances in RNA sequencing technology and computational methods, bioinformatics resources continue to emerge and update rapidly, including workflow for in silico ncRNA analysis, up-to-date platforms, databases, and tools dedicated to ncRNA identification and functional annotation. In this review, we aim to describe the biogenesis, biological functions, and interactions with DNA, RNA, protein, and microorganism of five major regulatory ncRNAs (miRNA, siRNA, tsRNA, circRNA, lncRNA) in plants. Then, we systematically summarize tools for analysis and prediction of plant ncRNAs, as well as databases. Furthermore, we discuss the silico analysis process of these ncRNAs and present a protocol for step-by-step computational analysis of ncRNAs. In general, this review will help researchers better understand the world of ncRNAs at multiple levels.

    Abstract For multi-temporal high resolution remote sensing images, the image registration is important but difficult due to the high resolution and low-stability land-cover. Especially, the changing of land-cover, solar altitude angle, radiation intensity, and terrain fluctuation distortion in the overlapping areas can represent different image characteristics. These time-varying properties cause traditional registration methods with known reference information to fault. Therefore, in this paper we propose a comprehensive coarse-to-fine registration (CCFR) algorithm. First, we design a low-rank constraint-based batch reference extraction (LRC-BRE) method. Under the low-rank constraint, the stable features with highly spatial co-occurrence can be reconstructed via matrix decomposition, and are set as reference images to batch registration. Second, we improve the general feature registration with block feature matching and local linear transformation (BFM-LLT) operators including match outlier filtering (MOF) on regional mutual information and dual-weighted block fitting (DWBF). Finally, based on combining LRC-BRE and BFM-LLT, CCFR is integrated. Experimental results show that the proposed method has a good batch alignment effect, especially in the registration of large difference image pairs. The proposed CCFR achieves a significant performance improvement over many state-of-the-art registration algorithms.

    Abstract Increased dependence on aerobic glycolysis is characteristic of most cancer cells, whereas the mechanism underlying the promotion of aerobic glycolysis in metastatic breast cancer cells under ambient oxygen has not been well understood. Here, we demonstrated that aberrant expression of signal-induced proliferation-associated 1 (SIPA1) enhanced aerobic glycolysis and altered the main source of ATP production from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis in breast cancer cells. We revealed that SIPA1 promoted the transcription of EPAS1, which is known as the gene encoding hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α) and up-regulated the expression of multiple glycolysis-related genes to increase aerobic glycolysis. We also found that blocking aerobic glycolysis by either knocking down SIPA1 expression or oxamate treatment led to the suppression of tumor metastasis of breast cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, aberrant expression of SIPA1 resulted in the alteration of glucose metabolism from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis even at ambient oxygen levels, which might aggravate the malignancy of breast cancer cells. The present findings indicate a potential target for the development of therapeutics against breast cancers with dysregulated SIPA1 expression.

    Abstract The recent discovery of circular RNAs (circRNAs) and characterization of their functional roles have opened a new avenue for understanding the biology of genomes. circRNAs have been implicated to play important roles in a variety of biological processes, but their precise functions remain largely elusive. Currently, a few approaches are available for novel circRNA prediction, but almost all these methods are intended for animal genomes. Considering that the major differences between the organization of plant and mammal genomes cannot be neglected, a plant-specific method is needed to enhance the validity of plant circRNA identification. In this study, we present CircPlant, an integrated tool for the exploration of plant circRNAs, potentially acting as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs), and their potential functions. With the incorporation of several unique plant-specific criteria, CircPlant can accurately detect plant circRNAs from high-throughput RNA-seq data. Based on comparison tests on simulated and real RNA-seq datasets from Arabidopsis thaliana and Oryza sativa, we show that CircPlant outperforms all evaluated competing tools in both accuracy and efficiency.

    Abstract Abstract A deeper understanding of genetic regulation and functional mechanisms underlying genetic associations with complex traits and diseases is impeded by cellular heterogeneity and linkage disequilibrium. To address these limits, we introduce Huatuo, a framework to decode genetic variation of gene regulation at cell type and single-nucleotide resolutions by integrating deep-learning-based variant predictions with population-based association analyses. We apply Huatuo to generate a comprehensive cell type-specific genetic variation landscape across human tissues and further evaluate their potential roles in complex diseases and traits. Finally, we show that Huatuo’s inferences permit prioritizations of driver cell types associated with complex traits and diseases and allow for systematic insights into the mechanisms of phenotype-causal genetic variation.

    Abstract We report a readily and cheap method to build taper optical fiber-Er 3+ doped microsphere platform to investigate upconversion fluorescence emission and down-conversion laser oscillation with low threshold pump power. We demonstrate to dope Er 3+ into silica microsphere surface by dipping a single-taper optical fiber into a certain concentration of erbium nitrate solution (Er(NO 3 )) , then dry it and use the electrical-arc of the optical fiber splicer to melt the tip of taper fiber to form the Er 3+ -doped silica microsphere due to surface tension induced. We also present a HF acid etching setup to fabricate low loss biconical optical taper fibers. We demonstrate the Er 3+ doped silica mic r osphere triple photons and dual photons absorption process of up-conversion fluorescence emission and down-conversion laser oscillation spectra by using the optical tapered fiber to couple 976 nm/1534 nm pump light source.
