Identification of pro-fibrotic macrophages populations by scRNA-seq in West Highland white terriers affected with canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Project description:We used the scRNA-seq to characterize disease-related heterogeneity within cell populations of macrophages/monocytes in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from West Highland white terriers either healthy or affected with canine idioapthic pulmonary fibrosis. The disease is still not well understood, occurs in old West Highland white terriers and results from deposition of fibrotic tissue in the lung parenchyma causing respiratory failure.

Genome Resequencing Identifies Unique Adaptations of Tibetan Chickens to Hypoxia and High-dose Ultraviolet Radiation in High-altitude Environments

Project description:Tibetan chickens exhibit specific adaptations to high-altitude conditions compared with their lowland counterparts. To illustrate the genetic mechanisms of such adaptations in highland chickens, the genomes of four highland and four lowland chicken populations were resequenced. Our results showed that genes under positive selection in highland populations were related to cardiovascular and respiratory system development, DNA repair, response to radiation, inflammation, and immune response, indicating a strong adaptation to oxygen scarcity and high-intensity solar radiation. The distribution of allele frequencies of non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms between highland and lowland populations was also analyzed by chi-square test. The results showed that several differentially distributed genes with missense mutations were enriched in several functional categories, especially in blood vessel development, which were related to adaptations to hypoxia and intense radiation. RNA sequencing also revealed that several differentially expressed genes were enriched in gene ontology terms related to blood vessel and respiratory system development. Additionally, an evident admixture found in Tibetan chickens suggested a history of introgression from lowland gene pools. Overall, our data provided new insights into the unique adaptation of highland animals to extreme environments.

Geographic variation in epigenetic responses to hypoxia in deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) distributed along an elevational gradient

Project description:Spatially varying environments can pose distinct costs and benefits on traits under selection, such that a beneficial trait in one environment may be counter-productive in another. As an example, lowland and highland Peromyscus maniculatus populations display divergent, locally adapted physiological mechanisms shaped by altitudinal differences in oxygen availability. Particularly, lowland mice leverage ancestral plasticity derived from acute episodic bouts of low internal oxygen triggered by causes such as blood loss, anemia or tissue ischemia. These responses can be maladaptive under persistent low-oxygen conditions, as they could lead to physiological complications such as pulmonary hypertension. Therefore, highland ancestry is associated with traits promoting chronic hypoxia tolerance. Given each population’s distinct adaptive histories and reliance on plasticity for hypoxia tolerance, we hypothesized that upon hypoxia exposure lowland mice would have a more robust epigenetic response, driving trait plasticity, than highland mice. Using DNA methylation data collected from left ventricle tissues, we show that upon hypoxia exposure, lowland mice can chemically modulate the epigenetic landscape to a greater extent than highland mice, especially at key hypoxia-relevant genes such as Egln3, a regulator of Epas1- a gene frequently targeted for positive selection at high elevation. In addition, lowland mice show greater enrichment of DNA methylation change concentrated at hypoxia-relevant biological pathways, particularly those related to Notch ligands. These findings exemplify each population’s distinct reliance on molecular plasticity driven by their unique evolutionary histories.

Environmental stress to Ethiopia indigenous chicken breeds induce immune signaling response among transcriptomic changes in heart, breast muscle and spleen tissues

Project description:Ethiopia indigenous chicken breeds are typically divided into low and high altitude chicken breeds. Firstly, representative city of low altitude such as Awash is an altitude of around 950 meters above sea level and have a climate which is humidity and high temperature with 37℃ between May and June. Secondly, representative city of high altitude such as Addis Ababa is the capital of Ethiopia in eastern Africa and this city is an altitude of over 2,400 meters above sea level and has a climate which is generally comparable with the average annual temperature of around 16℃. These chicken breeds are adapted to the environmental (climate, temperature and altitude) on the city. Moreover, in Awash, chicken breed is more adapted to heat resistance. So we generated RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data of Ethiopia indigenous chicken breeds such as low altitude chicken breed (adapted heat) and high altitude chicken breed (Non-adapted heat) to compare the gene expression profiling induced by heat stress (HS). Therefore, we identified 13 hub differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using cuffdiff within cufflinks, which validated by real-time quantitative-PCR (qRT-PCR) in Kenya chicken breed for biological and technical validation. These hub DEGs were subjected to pathway enrichment, protein/protein interaction, and the partial correlation coefficient with information theory (PCIT) to determine their involvement in heat stress and immune response. Our findings suggest that not only hub DEGs but also many others DEGs may play a role in heat stress and immune response.

The first application of biological pretreatment in Chinese spirits, utilizing cellulose-degrading probiotics from Jiangshui to improve the quality of Highland Barely Liquor

Project description:Highland barley liquor is a distilled spirit made from highland barley on the Tibetan Plateau, but its alcohol yield is limited by the high fiber content of the raw material. In the field of biomass resources, functional microorganisms are commonly used in pretreatment to degrade cellulose and other substances, improving fermentation output. In this study, we isolated the cellulose-degrading probiotic Lactobacillus delbrueckii GR-8 (CMCase 6.21 U/mL) from the traditional vegetable-based fermented food "Jiangshui" and applied biological pretreatment to the fermentation of highland barley liquor. During pretreatment, probiotics enhanced cellulase and amylase activities in the fermented grains, resulting in a 25% reduction in cellulose content and a 112% increase in free reducing sugar content. The pretreatment significantly altered the microbial community structure, enhancing microbial diversity. After distillation, alcohol yield increased by 3.5%, and total acid and ester contents rose by 25% and 23%, respectively. Pyrazine compounds increased by 1290%, while higher alcohols like nonanol, phenylethanol, and hexanol decreased. The treated liquor caused less harm to mice, who showed improved memory, motor skills, and lower oxidative liver damage. This study demonstrates that biological pretreatment enhances both fermentation and the quality of Chinese spirits.
