Musk, secreted by the musk gland of adult male musk-secreting mammals, holds significant pharmaceutical and cosmetic potential. However, understanding molecular mechanisms secretion remains limited, largely due to lack comprehensive multiomics analyses available platforms for relevant species, such as muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus Linnaeus) Chinese forest deer (Moschus berezovskii Flerov). We generated chromosome-level genome assemblies 2 species Flerov), along with 168 transcriptomes from...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer worldwide. It more prevalent in men than women. Related to this, recent genetic studies have revealed a causal role for androgen receptor (AR) hepatocarcinogenesis, but underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we used genome-wide location and functional analyses identify critical mediator of AR signaling — cell cycle–related kinase (CCRK) that drives hepatocarcinogenesis via pathway dependent on β-catenin T factor...
Abstract Male musk deer secrete from the gland located between their naval and genitals. Unmated male forest generate a greater amount of than mated males, potentially allowing them to attract number females. In this study, we used gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) explore chemical composition pods captive unmated sexually mature Chinese next-generation sequencing intensively survey bacterial communities within them. Analysis showed that males have more muscone cholesterol....
<h3>Objective</h3> Using genome-wide promoter methylation assay, B cell CLL/lymphoma 6 member <i>(BCL6B)</i> was found to be preferentially methylated in cancer.

Promoter methylation was evaluated methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) bisulfite genomic sequencing (BGS)....
RING finger protein 135 has an important role in the occurrence of many cancers; however its regulation and function RNF135 hepatocellular carcinoma remains unknown. The promoter methylation status mRNA expression was evaluated by methylation-specific PCR, semi-quantitative RT-PCR, real-time quantitative PCR HCC tissues cell lines, further analyzed from Cancer Genome Atlas database. Wound healing assay, transwell migration, viability, colony formation assay were performed to investigate...
Background The Chinese forest musk deer, a solitary ungulate renowned for its secretion, is under extinction threat despite extensive use in traditional medicine and perfumery. demand significantly outstrips natural supply. Purpose This study aimed to explore the differences peptide profiles between cultured gland cells develop sustainable alternatives production aid conservation of deer. Materials Methods Musk samples from deer were collected analyzed using EASY-nLC 1000 system. Peptide...
Proteinases play critical roles in both intra and extracellular processes by binding cleaving their protein substrates. The cleavage can either be non-specific as part of degradation during catabolism or highly specific proteolytic cascades signal transduction events. Identification these targets is extremely challenging. Current computational approaches for predicting sites are very limited since they mainly represent the amino acid sequences patterns frequency matrices. In this work, we...
Animal gut microbiota begins to colonize after birth and is functionally indispensable for maintaining the health of host. It has been reported that gender age influence composition intestinal microbiome. However, effects on microorganism forest musk deer (FMD) remain unclear. The aim this study was establish relationship between structure fecal male female with age. Here, Illumina Miseq 300PE sequencing platform targeting 16S rRNA V3–V4 hypervariable region applied define FMD two groups,...
Forest musk deer is the most important animal for natural production, and composition changes periodically during secretion, accompanied by variation in com-position of deer-symbiotic bacteria. GC-MS 16S rRNA sequencing were conducted this study, dynamic to correlated chemical microbiota across secretion periods (prime period, vigorous period late period) investigated integrating its serum testosterone level different mating states. Results showed that level, changed with annual cycle...
AIM:To improve the outcome of orthotopic transplantation in a mouse model, we used an absorbable gelatin sponge (AGS) nude mice to establish implantation tumor model.
β654-thalassemia is a prominent Chinese subtype of b-thalassemia, representing 17% all cases β-thalassemia in China. The molecular mechanism underlying this involves the IVS-2-654 C→T mutation leading to aberrant β-globin RNA splicing. This results an additional 73-nucleotide exon between exons 2 and 3 leads severe thalassemia syndrome. Herein, we explored CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing approach eliminate 73- nucleotide by targeting both cryptic acceptor splice site at IVS-2-579 order correct...
BACKGROUND Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder characterized by chronic or recurrent symptoms. Lurasidone was licensed in China 2019 for the treatment of adult schizophrenia adults with maximum dose 80 mg/d. However, post-market surveillance (PMS) an adequate sample size required further validation drug’s safety profile and effectiveness. AIM To conduct PMS real-world clinical settings evaluate effectiveness lurasidone Chinese population. METHODS A prospective, multicenter, open-label,...
