    Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has ravaged the world since December 2019. Up to now, it is still prevalent around the world. Vaccines are an important means to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and reduce severe disease and mortality. Currently, different types of novel coronavirus vaccines are still being developed and improved, and the relevant vaccines that have been approved for marketing have been widely vaccinated around the world. As vaccination coverage continues to grow, concerns about the efficacy and safety of vaccines after real-world use have grown. Some clinical studies have shown that vaccine effectiveness is closely related to antibody response after vaccination. Among them, the advantages of COVID-19 messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine, such as better adaptability to variant strains and better immune response ability, have attracted great attention. However, different populations with different genders, ages, previous COVID-19 infection history, underlying diseases and treatments will show different antibody responses after mRNA vaccination, which will affect the protection of the vaccine. Based on this, this paper reviews the reports related severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 mRNA vaccines, and summarizes the effectiveness of vaccines in different populations and different disease states and looked forward to the precise vaccination strategy of the vaccine in the future.

    Abstract Ganoderma lucidum is a mushroom widely used for its edible and medicinal properties. Primary bioactive constituents of G. lucidum are ganoderic triterpenoids (GTs), which exhibit important pharmacological activity. Abscisic acid (ABA), a plant hormone, is associated with plant growth, development, and stress responses. ABA can also affect the growth, metabolism, and physiological activities of different fungi and participates in the regulation of the tetracyclic triterpenes of some plants. Our findings indicated that ABA treatment promoted GT accumulation by regulating the gene expression levels (squalene synthase (sqs), 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (hmgr), and lanosterol synthase (ls)), and also activated cytosolic Ca

    Abstract Pregnancy is a unique type of immunological process. Healthy pregnancy is associated with a series of inflammatory events: implantation (inflammation), gestation (anti-inflammation), and parturition (inflammation). As the most abundant leukocytes during pregnancy, natural killer (NK) cells are recruited and activated by ovarian hormones and have pivotal roles throughout pregnancy. During the first trimester, NK cells represent up to 50-70% of decidua lymphocytes. Differently from peripheral-blood NK cells, decidual natural killer (dNK) cells are poorly cytolytic, and they release cytokines/chemokines that induce trophoblast invasion, tissue remodeling, embryonic development, and placentation. NK cells can also shift to a cytotoxic identity and carry out immune defense if infected

    Abstract The therapeutic outcomes for bladder cancer (BLCA) remain suboptimal. Concurrently, there is a growing appreciation for the role of neoantigens in tumors. In this study, we explored the mechanisms underlying the involvement of neoantigen-associated genes in BLCA and their impact on prognosis. Our analysis incorporated both single-cell sequencing and bulk sequencing data sourced from publicly available databases. By employing a comprehensive set of 10 machine learning algorithms, we generated 101 algorithm combinations. The optimal combination, determined based on consistency indices, was utilized to construct a prognostic model comprising nine genes (CAPG, ACTA2, PDIA6, AKNA, PTMS, SNAP23, ID2, CD3G, SP140). Subsequently, we validated this model in an independent cohort, demonstrating its robust testing efficacy. Moreover, we explored the correlations between various clinical traits, model scores, and genes. Leveraging extensive public data resources, we conducted a drug sensitivity analysis to provide insights for targeted drug screening. Additionally, consensus clustering analysis and immune infiltration analysis were performed on bulk sequencing datasets and immunotherapy cohorts. These analyses yield valuable insights into the role of neoantigens in BLCA, guiding future research endeavors.

    Abstract With the advancement of urbanization, the structure and connectivity of river networks have been changed by the interference of human activities, resulting in a series of water environment problems. Numerous studies have indicated that river networks are associated with water quality; unfortunately, few studies have revealed the contributions of the structure and connectivity of river networks to variations in water quality. Taking one water conservancy region with dense and braided rivers on the Taihu Plain as an example, we depicted the spatial aggregations of water quality using the Getis-Ord Gi* index, quantified the variations in polluted regions using the standard deviational ellipse method, and quantified the influence of river density and connectivity on water quality during the different seasons. The results showed that (1) the water quality during the flood season was better than that during the non-flood season, especially in the western region; (2) the spatial aggregations of most water quality indicators were higher and the polluted regions increased in size during the flood period compared to the non-flood period; and (3) the relative contribution rates of the river density and connectivity exhibited mean values of 62.5% (61.2%) and 37.5% (38.8%) in the flood (non-flood) period. Our results provide theoretical support for enhancing water environment management.

    Abstract Domoic acid (DA)-producing algal blooms have been the issue of worldwide concerns in recent decades, but there has never been any attempt to investigate the effects of DA on microbial ecology in marine environments. Protists are considered to be key regulators of microbial activity, community structure and evolution, we therefore explore the effect of DA on the ecology of protists via metagenome in this work. The results indicate that trace amounts of DA can act as a stressor to alter alpha and beta diversity of protistan community. Among trophic functional groups, consumers and phototrophs are negative responders of DA, implying DA is potentially capable of functional-level effects in the ocean. Moreover, microecological theory reveals that induction of DA increases the role of deterministic processes in microbial community assembly, thus altering the biotic relationships and successional processes in symbiotic patterns. Finally, we demonstrate that the mechanism by which DA shapes protistan ecological network is by acting on phototrophs, which triggers cascading effects in networks and eventually leading to shifts in ecological succession of protists. Overall, our results present the first perspective regarding the effects of DA on marine microbial ecology, which will supplement timely information on the ecological impacts of DA in the ocean.

    Abstract Epidiolex, the first FDA-approved drug with cannabis extract, treats Dravet and Lennox-Gastaut syndromes. Using data from the FAERS database between 2018 and 2023, this study analyzed 13,275 Epidiolex-related adverse events. Through computational methods (ROR, PRR, BCPNN, EBGM), we found that real-world adverse reactions largely align with those in Epidiolex's drug leaflet. However, Seizure cluster, Blood ketone body decrease, Cortical visual impairment, Hyperactive pharyngeal reflex, and Poverty of speech emerged as potential new side effects not previously listed, warranting further attention for drug safety.

    Abstract High carbonate alkalinity is one of the major stress factors for survival of aquatic animals in saline-alkaline water. Exopalaemon carinicauda is a good model for studying the saline-alkaline adaption mechanism in crustacean because of its great adaptive capacity to alkalinity stress. In this study, non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) metabolomics analyses based on high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) were used to study the metabolomic responses of hepatopancreas in E. carinicauda at 12 h and 36 h after acute carbonate alkalinity stress. The results revealed that most of the significantly differential metabolites were related to the lipid metabolism. In particular, the sphingolipid metabolism was observed at 12 h, the glycerophospholipid metabolism was detected at 36 h, and the linoleic acid metabolic pathway was significantly enriched at both 12 h and 36 h. The combined transcriptome and metabolome analysis showed that energy consumption increased at 12 h, resulting in significant enrichment of AMPK signaling pathways, which contributed to maintain energy homeostasis. Subsequently, the hepatopancreas provided sufficient energy supply through cAMP signaling pathway and glycerophosphate metabolism to maintain normal metabolic function at 36 h. These findings might help to understand the molecular mechanisms of the E. carinicauda under carbonate alkalinity stress, thereby promote the research and development of saline-alkaline resistant shrimp.

    Abstract Tigecycline is a tetracycline-class antibacterial indicated for the treatment of complicated skin and skin-structure infections, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. It has a broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. It has identified gastrointestinal side-effects, particularly nausea and vomiting. With the increasing clinical use of tigecycline, its associated acute pancreatitis has been frequently reported in adults. However, cases of tigecycline-induced acute pancreatitis have rarely been described in children. In this study, we report a case of acute pancreatitis caused by the use of tigecycline in a child with pulmonary cystic fibrosis. In this case, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting occurred on the 5
