Neurotropic virus-based tracers have been extensively applied in mapping and manipulation of neural circuits. However, their neurotropic neurotoxic properties remain to be fully characterized.Through circuit tracing, we systematically compared the neurotropism discrepancy among different multi-trans-synaptic mono-synaptic retrograde viral including pseudorabies virus (PRV), rabies (RV), newly engineered retro adeno-associated (rAAV2-retro) tracers. The (single-cell) RNA sequencing analysis...

Bumblebees are a diverse group of globally important pollinators in natural ecosystems and for agricultural food production. With both eusocial solitary life-cycle phases, some social parasite species, they especially interesting models to understand evolution, behavior, ecology. Reports many species decline point pathogen transmission, habitat loss, pesticide usage, global climate change, as interconnected causes. These threats bumblebee diversity make our reliance on handful well-studied...

Abstract In the unprecedented single-cell sequencing and spatial multiomics era of biology, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technologies with higher sensitivity robustness, especially for detecting short RNAs other biomolecules, are greatly desired. Here, we develop robust multiplex π-FISH rainbow method to detect diverse biomolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins, neurotransmitters) individually or simultaneously high efficiency. This versatile is successfully applied gene expression...

Connectivity determines the function of neural circuits. Historically, circuit mapping has usually been viewed as a problem microscopy, but no current method can achieve high-throughput entire circuits with single neuron precision. Here we describe novel approach to determining connectivity. We propose BOINC ("barcoding individual neuronal connections"), for converting connectivity into form that be read out by DNA sequencing. The appeal using sequencing is its scale—sequencing billions...

Acquisition of drug-resistant phenotypes is often associated with chemotherapy in osteosarcoma. A number studies have demonstrated a critical role for autophagy osteosarcoma development, therapy and drug resistance. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying autophagy-mediated resistance cells remain largely unknown. In present study, we determined microRNA-140 (miR-140-5p, miRBase ID: MIMAT0000431) expression induced by chemotherapeutic drugs cells. Then promotory miR-140-5p to...

Abstract Background Data visualization, especially the genome track plots, is crucial for genomics researchers to discover patterns in large-scale sequencing dataset. Although existing tools works well producing a normal view of input data, they are not convenient when users want create customized data representations. Such gap between visualization and processing, prevents uncover more hidden structure Results We developed CoolBox—an open-source toolkit visual analysis data. This...

Abstract Immunocytes dynamically reprogram their gene expression profiles during differentiation and immunoresponse. However, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, we develop a single-cell Hi-C method systematically delineate 3D genome dynamic epigenetic atlas of macrophages these processes. We propose “degree disorder” to measure organizational patterns inside topologically-associated domains, which is correlated with chromatin states, expression, structure variability in...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is predominantly associated with HPV-related cancers, however, the precise mechanisms underlying HPV-host epigenetic architectures in HPV carcinogenesis remain elusive. Here, we employed high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) to comprehensively map HPV16/18-host chromatin interactions. Our study identified transcription factor Sp1 as a pivotal mediator programming By targeting Sp1, active histone modifications (H3K27ac, H3K4me1, and H3K4me3)...
