RESUMEN

Vortioxetine is a novel multimodal antidepressant, but its precise efficacy and dose-response relationship for treating different symptoms in major depressive disorder (MDD) is still unclear. This umbrella review aims to assess the effectiveness, tolerability, and dose-response relationship of vortioxetine across a comprehensive range of clinical features in adults with MDD, including cognition, depression, anxiety, quality of life, and side effects. We meticulously searched eight electronic databases and included systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyses (MAs) of vortioxetine. The methodological quality of each included SR was independently assessed using the AMSTAR2 tool. To evaluate the credibility of the evidence, we utilized the GRADE framework and the Ioannidis criteria. In total, 35 SRs with 278 MAs met the inclusion criteria and based on these studies we performed 56 MAs of interest. While vortioxetine has been consistently shown to have positive effects on various domains, the evidence regarding cognitive performance and depression symptoms is notably robust compared to placebo, despite of relatively overall low quality of evidence. Finally, a dose-response relationship was observed across all categories within the treatment range of 5-20 mg/d and a dosage of vortioxetine 20 mg/d is recommended for adult MDD patients to achieve full functional recovery.

RESUMEN

Nitrite is a common environmental pollutant in intensive aquaculture systems. In this study, physiological and transcriptomic analyses were performed to investigate nitrite stress responses in the swimming crab Portunus trituberculatus, an important aquaculture species in China. The results revealed that nitrite can affect neurotransmitter signaling via the expression of neurotransmitter receptors such as octopamine receptor (OAR) and 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor (5-HTR), and depress ecdysteroid signaling by downregulating ecdysteroid receptor (EcR) as well as its downstream transcription factors in hepatopancreas. In addition, nitrite suppressed the expression of hemocyanins, the oxygen-transporting protein, which at least partly contributed to tissue hypoxia, resulting in a switchover of energy metabolism from aerobic to anaerobic pathway. To meet the energy demand, glycogens and lipids were mobilized and transported to the hemolymph, and the catabolism of amino acids and fatty acids was enhanced to provide energy for hepatopancreas. ß-oxidation of fatty acids, the major process by which fatty acids are oxidized to generate energy, seems to occur mainly not in mitochondria but in peroxisomes. Although the cellular protective mechanisms, including antioxidant defense, heat shock response (HSR), unfolded protein response (UPR), and autophagy, were activated, nitrite-induced cellular stress overwhelmed the repairing capacity and caused significant increase in the levels of apoptosis. These results indicated that nitrite stress influences neurotransmitter and endocrine signaling, disturbs energy metabolism, damages cellular components, and induces apoptosis in P. trituberculatus. The findings of this study provide new insights into nitrite stress response in the swimming crab and provide valuable information for aquaculture management of this species.

RESUMEN

M. japonicus is an important specie for factory farming, and factory farming requires an environment with sand at the bottom of the pond. However, the physiological responses as well as survival in the process of factory farming without laying sand are currently unknown. In the present study, we explored the effect of sand substrate removal on the intestinal histomorphology, antioxidant enzyme activity, and metabolic profile of M. japonicus. Our results indicate a gradual increase in the mortality rate of kuruma shrimp in ponds lacking sand substrate. The intestinal mucosa exhibited necrosis and the presence of vacuoles, with their number gradually increasing over time. The intestinal villi showed significant erosion, accompanied by a decrease in intestinal superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and catalase (CAT) activity, and consistent with an upregulation in the expression of apoptosis-related genes such as caspase-3, indicating an adaptive response to the adverse environmental conditions. Additionally, the metabolomic analysis revealed that most significantly differential metabolites were linked to amino acid and lipid metabolism. These findings enhance our understanding of the sand substrate removal on the intestinal health of kuruma shrimp, which provides a basis for the factory farming.

RESUMEN

Metabolomics has been used extensively to identify crucial molecules and biochemical effects induced by environmental factors. To understand the effects of acute low-salinity stress on Fenneropenaeus chinensis, intestinal histological examination and untargeted metabonomic analysis of F. chinensis were performed after exposure to a salinity of 15 ppt for 3, 7, and 14 d. The histological examination revealed that acute stress resulted in most epithelial cells rupturing, leading to the dispersion of nuclei in the intestinal lumen after 14 days. Metabolomics analysis identified numerous differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) at different time points after exposure to low-salinity stress, in which some DEMs were steadily downregulated at the early stage of stress and then gradually upregulated. We further screened 14 overlapping DEMs, in which other DEMs decreased significantly during low-salinity stress, apart from L-palmitoylcarnitine and vitamin A, with enrichments in phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, fatty acid and retinol metabolism, and ABC transporters. ABC transporters exhibit significant abnormalities and play a vital role in low-salinity stress. This study provides valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the responses of F. chinensis to acute salinity stress.

RESUMEN

The rapid development of the mariculture industry has been hindered by limited coastal aquaculture space. To utilize the abundant inland saline-alkaline water, we studied the physiological effects of high carbonate alkalinity stress and high pH stress on Fenneropenaeus chinensis. The study employed quantitative proteomics by tandem mass tag (TMT) and non-targeted metabolomics analysis using a liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer (LC-MS) to understand the physiological and biochemical adaptive mechanisms of the hepatopancreas of F. chinensis in response to saline-alkaline stress at the molecular level. We designed two stress groups as follows: a high carbonate alkalinity (CA) group and a combined high carbonate alkalinity and high pH (CP) group. The study found that the protein and metabolic profiles of the two stress groups were changed, and the CP group, which was exposed to dual stresses, incurred more severe damage to the hepatopancreas compared to that of the CA group. After exposure to CA and CP, the hepatopancreas of F. chinensis showed significant alterations in 455 proteins and 50 metabolites, and 1988 proteins and 272 metabolites, respectively. In addition, F. chinensis upregulated the level of energy metabolism in the hepatopancreas to defend against osmotic imbalance caused by CA or CP stress, which was demonstrated by the significant upregulation of important proteins and metabolites in glycolysis, pyruvate metabolism, TCA cycle, and fatty acid oxidation. Additionally, pattern recognition receptors, the phenol oxidase system, and various immune-related metabolic enzymes and metabolites were also affected. The immune homeostasis of F. chinensis was affected by the alteration of the antioxidant system following exposure to CA or CP. These findings provide valuable information for F. chinensis saline-alkaline water cultivation practices.

RESUMEN

The nanozyme-linked aptamer-sorbent assay (NLASA) is a rapid way to screen and characterize aptamer binding to targets. In this paper, a MnO2@AuNPs@aptamer (Apt) based NLASA coupled with colorimetric-SERS dual-mode for Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) detection is presented. Cu,Fe-CDs were used as the reducing agent to synthesize MnO2 and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Then, they were fabricated to obtain MnO2@AuNPs with oxidase (OXD)-like and SERS activities. The S. aureus aptamer was conjugated to MnO2@AuNPs and enhanced the OXD-like activity, which realized the specific capture of S. aureus in food matrices. In addition, S. aureus improves the oxidation of 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) but inhibits 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to generate Raman-active oxTMB with MnO2@AuNPs@Apt. This sensor was used for detections of S. aureus in a concentration ranged from 101 to 107 CFU/mL with a detection limit of 0.926 CFU/mL (colorimetric) and 1.561 CFU/mL (SERS), and the recovery is 85%-105% in real samples.

RESUMEN

Recent conservation efforts to protect rare and endangered aquatic species have intensified. Nevertheless, the ornate spiny lobster (Panulirus ornatus), which is prevalent in the Indo-Pacific waters, has been largely ignored. In the absence of a detailed genomic reference, the conservation and population genetics of this crustacean are poorly understood. Here, We assembled a comprehensive chromosome-level genome for P. ornatus. This genome-among the most detailed for lobsters-spans 2.65 Gb with a contig N50 of 51.05 Mb, and 99.11% of the sequences with incorporated to 73 chromosomes. The ornate spiny lobster genome comprises 65.67% repeat sequences and 22,752 protein-coding genes with 99.20% of the genes functionally annotated. The assembly of the P. ornatus genome provides valuable insights into comparative crustacean genomics and endangered species conservation, and lays the groundwork for future research on the speciation, ecology, and evolution of the ornate spiny lobster.

RESUMEN

Studying the ecological niches of species and their responses to climate change can provide better conservation strategies for these species. Myrothamnaceae is endemic to Africa, comprising only two species that belong to Myrothamnus (M. flabellifolius and M. moschatus). These closely related species exhibit allopatric distributions, positioning them as ideal materials for studying the species ecological adaptation. This study explores the ecological niche differentiation between M. flabellifolius and M. moschatus and their response capabilities to future climate change. The results indicate that M. flabellifolius and M. moschatus have undergone niche differentiation. The main drivers of niche differences are the minimum temperature of the coldest month (Bio6) for M. flabellifolius, precipitation of the driest month (Bio14), and precipitation of the coldest quarter (Bio19) for M. moschatus. M. flabellifolius demonstrated a stronger adaptation to environments characterized by lower precipitation, relatively lower temperatures, and greater annual temperature variations compared to M. moschatus. Under future climate scenarios (SSP5-8.5, 2081-2100 years), the results show that approximately 85% of the total suitable habitat for M. flabellifolius will be lost, with an 85% reduction in high-suitability areas and almost complete loss of the original mid-low suitability areas. Concurrently, about 29% of the total suitable habitat for M. moschatus will be lost, with a 34% reduction in high suitability areas and roughly 60% of the original mid-low suitability areas becoming unsuitable. This suggests that M. flabellifolius will face greater threats under future climate change. This study contributes novel insight into niche differentiation in Myrothamnaceae and provides useful information for the conservation of this distinctive African lineage.

RESUMEN

Exopalaemon carinicauda, a eurythermal and euryhaline shrimp, contributes one third of the total biomass production of polyculture ponds in eastern China and is considered as a potential ideal experimental animal for research on crustaceans. We conducted a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly of E. carinicauda combining PacBio HiFi and Hi-C sequencing data. The total assembly size was 5.86 Gb, with a contig N50 of 235.52 kb and a scaffold N50 of 138.24 Mb. Approximately 95.29% of the assembled sequences were anchored onto 45 pseudochromosomes. BUSCO analysis revealed that 92.89% of 1,013 single-copy genes were highly conserved orthologs. A total of 44, 288 protein-coding genes were predicted, of which 70.53% were functionally annotated. Given its high heterozygosity (2.62%) and large proportion of repeat sequences (71.49%), it is one of the most complex genome assemblies. This chromosome-scale genome will be a valuable resource for future molecular breeding and functional genomics research on E. carinicauda.

RESUMEN

This paper addresses robust fault detection observer design for a class of discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno nonlinear systems. A novel design method is presented based on finite-frequency H-/H∞ indices and peak-to-peak analysis. The finite-frequency H- and H∞ indices are utilized to characterize fault sensitivity and disturbance robustness, respectively. The peak-to-peak analysis is used to derive a dynamic threshold. An iterative algorithm is further developed to reduce conservatism. Theoretical proof shows that the performance of the proposed method is not worse than some existing works. Simulation results demonstrate the validity and viability of the proposed method.

RESUMEN

Obtaining a microorganism strain with a broad-spectrum resistance property and highly efficient antifungal activity is important to the biocontrol strategy. Herein, a marine Streptomyces sp. HNBCa1 demonstrated a broad-spectrum resistance to 17 tested crop pathogenic fungi and exhibited a high biocontrol efficiency against mango anthracnose and banana fusarium wilt. To uncover the critical bioactive secondary metabolites basis, genome assembly and annotation, metabolomic analysis, and a semipreparative HPLC-based activity-guide method were employed. Finally, geldanamycin and ectoine involved in codifferential secondary metabolites were also found to be related to biosynthetic gene clusters in the genome of HNBCa1. Reblastatin and geldanamycin were uncovered in response to broad-spectrum resistance to the 17 crop pathogenic fungi. Our results suggested that reblastatin and geldanamycin were critical to maintaining the broad-spectrum resistance property and highly efficient antifungal activity of HNBCa1, which could be further developed as a biological control agent to control crop fungal diseases.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: As a central hub in cognitive and emotional brain circuits, the striatum is considered likely to be integrally involved in the psychopathology of bipolar disorder (BD). However, it remains unclear how alterations in striatal function contribute to distinct symptomatology of BD during different mood states. METHODS: Behavioral assessment (i.e., emotional symptoms and cognitive performance) and neuroimaging data were collected from 125 participants comprising 31 (hypo)manic, 31 depressive, and 31 euthymic patients with BD, and 32 healthy control participants. We compared the functional connectivity (FC) of striatal subregions across BD mood states with healthy control participants and then used a multivariate data-driven approach to explore dimensional associations between striatal connectivity and behavioral performance. Finally, we compared the FC and behavioral composite scores, which reflect the individual weighted representation of the associations, among different mood states. RESULTS: Patients in all mood states exhibited increased FC between the bilateral ventral rostral putamen and ventrolateral thalamus. Bipolar (hypo)mania uniquely exhibited increased ventral rostral putamen connectivity and superior ventral striatum connectivity. One latent component was identified, whereby increased FCs of striatal subregions were associated with distinct psychopathological symptomatology (more manic symptoms, elevated positive mood, less depressive symptoms, and worse cognitive performance). Patients with bipolar (hypo)mania had the highest FC and behavioral composite scores while bipolar patients with depression had the lowest scores. CONCLUSIONS: Our data demonstrated both trait features of BD and state features specific to bipolar (hypo)mania. The findings underscored the fundamental role of the striatum in the pathophysiological processes underlying specific symptomatology across all mood states.

RESUMEN

MAIN CONCLUSION: Genome-wide identification revealed 79 BpNAC genes belonging to 16 subfamilies, and their gene structures and evolutionary relationships were characterized. Expression analysis highlighted their importance in plant selenium stress responses. Paper mulberry (Broussonetia papyrifera), a deciduous arboreal plant of the Moraceae family, is distinguished by its leaves, which are abundant in proteins, polysaccharides, and flavonoids, positioning it as a novel feedstock. NAC transcription factors, exclusive to plant species, are crucial in regulating growth, development, and response to biotic and abiotic stress. However, extensive characterization of the NAC family within paper mulberry is lacking. In this study, 79 BpNAC genes were identified from the paper mulberry genome, with an uneven distribution across 13 chromosomes. A comprehensive, genome-wide analysis of BpNACs was performed, including investigating gene structures, promoter regions, and chromosomal locations. Phylogenetic tree analysis, alongside comparisons with Arabidopsis thaliana NACs, allowed for categorizing these genes into 16 subfamilies in alignment with gene structure and motif conservation. Collinearity analysis suggested a significant homologous relationship between the NAC genes of paper mulberry and those in Morus notabilis, Ficus hispida, Antiaris toxicaria, and Cannabis sativa. Integrating transcriptome data and Se content revealed that 12 BpNAC genes were associated with selenium biosynthesis. Subsequent RT-qPCR analysis corroborated the correlation between BpNAC59, BpNAC62 with sodium selenate, and BpNAC55 with sodium selenite. Subcellular localization experiments revealed the nuclear functions of BpNAC59 and BpNAC62. This study highlights the potential BpNAC transcription factors involved in selenium metabolism, providing a foundation for strategically breeding selenium-fortified paper mulberry.

RESUMEN

The pathogenic bacteria induced foodborne disease has been detrimental to public health worldwide. Herein, the peroxidase (POD)-like Fe3O4/MWCNTs@Mo-CDs (FMMC) nanozyme was applied for the detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli). The E. coli aptamer was conjugated with the surface of the FMMC, which effectively enhanced the POD-like activity attributing to the higher affinity to the substrate, and then specific capture of E. coli in food matrices, leading to the reduction of POD-like activity. Therefore, a robust and facile colorimetric aptasensor was developed for detecting E. coli with a wide linear range of 101-106 CFU/mL, low LOQ of 101 CFU/mL and LOD of 0.978 CFU/mL. The aptasensor demonstrated the satisfied selectivity for E. coli compared to the other strains. This method possessed the potential application for fast in situ screening of foodborne pathogens in food products.

RESUMEN

Trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) is an intracellular expressed G-protein-coupled receptor that is widely expressed in major dopaminergic areas and plays a crucial role in modulation of central dopaminergic neurotransmission and function. Pharmacological studies have clarified the roles of dopamine D1 receptor (D1R) in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in cognitive function and social behaviors, and chronic stress can inhibit D1R expression due to its susceptibility. Recently, we identified TAAR1 in the mPFC as a potential target for treating chronic stress-induced cognitive and social dysfunction, but whether D1R is involved in mediating the effects of TAAR1 agonist remains unclear. Combined genomics and transcriptomic studies revealed downregulation of D1R in the mPFC of TAAR1-/- mice. Molecular dynamics simulation showed that hydrogen bond, salt bridge, and Pi-Pi stacking interactions were formed between TAAR1 and D1R indicating a stable TAAR1-D1R complex structure. Using pharmacological interventions, we found that D1R antagonist disrupted therapeutic effect of TAAR1 partial agonist RO5263397 on stress-related cognitive and social dysfunction. Knockout TAAR1 in D1-type dopamine receptor-expressing neurons reproduced adverse effects of chronic stress, and TAAR1 conditional knockout in the mPFC led to similar deficits, along with downregulation of D1R expression, all of these effects were ameliorated by viral overexpression of D1R in the mPFC, suggesting the functional interaction between TAAR1 and D1R. Collectively, our data elucidate the possible molecular mechanism that D1R in the mPFC mediates the effects of TAAR1 activation on chronic stress-induced cognitive and social deficits.

RESUMEN

Fenneropenaeus chinensis is a commercially important shrimp species cultured in China. This study investigated eight F. chinensis populations in China, including four geographical populations, three commercial breeds, and one wild population captured from the Yellow Sea. Population stratification analysis revealed that the Hebei geographical population and commercial breeding "Huanghai No. 4" were relatively independent and stable, reflecting a relatively closed breeding environment, whereas gene introgression was present between other populations. Selective signature analysis detected artificial selection for vision, growth, and disease resistance in the Hebei population. Neuronal development-related genes were detected to be under selection in the Changyi and Rizhao populations. Fertility of the Rizhao population was also investigated. Additionally, genes in the glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis-chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate pathway were involved in the high pH tolerance of the "Huanghai No. 4" population. This study provided support for the genetic mechanism of parsing economic traits and the development of molecular breeding technologies.

RESUMEN

Trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) is a classical type of G-protein-coupled receptor, which is widely distributed in the brain of mammals, especially in the limbic system and the region rich in monoaminergic neurons, and it is a highly conserved TAAR subtype in all species. TAAR1 can specifically respond to endogenous trace amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues, and plays an important role in the pathophysiological mechanisms involving the dysregulation of monoamine system and glutamate system leading to mental disorders. In addition, TAAR1 modulator can act on inwardly rectifying potassium channels and regulate synaptic transmission and neuronal activity. According to the latest research findings, TAAR1 exerts a series of functions by regulating signal pathways and substrate phosphorylation, which is related to emotion, cognition, fear and addiction. Therefore, we conducted a detailed review of relevant studies on the TAAR1 signaling pathways, aiming at revealing the great potential of TAAR1 as a new target for drug treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders.

RESUMEN

Multiple lines of evidence suggest that the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1) holds promise as a potential target for stress-related disorders, such as treating major depressive disorder (MDD). The role of TAAR1 in the regulation of adult neurogenesis is recently supported by transcriptomic data. However, it remains unknown whether TAAR1 in dentate gyrus (DG) mediate chronic stress-induced negative effects on hippocampal plasticity and related behavior in mice. The present study consisted of a series of experiments using RNAscope, genetic approaches, behavioral tests, immunohistochemical staining, Golgi-Cox technique to unravel the effects of TAAR1 on alterations of dentate neuronal plasticity and cognitive function in the chronic social defeat stress model. The mice subjected to chronic defeat stress exhibited a noteworthy decrease in the mRNA level of TAAR1 in DG. Additionally, they exhibited compromised social memory and spatial object recognition memory, as well as impaired proliferation and maturation of adult-born dentate granule cells. Moreover, the selective knockout TAAR1 in DG mostly mimicked the cognitive function deficits and neurogenesis impairment induced by chronic stress. Importantly, the administration of the selective TAAR1 partial agonist RO5263397 during stress exposure attenuated the adverse effects of chronic stress on cognitive function, adult neurogenesis, dendritic arborization, and the synapse number of dentate neurons in DG. In summary, our findings suggest that TAAR1 plays a crucial role in mediating the detrimental effects of chronic stress on hippocampal plasticity and cognition. TAAR1 agonists exhibit therapeutic potential for individuals suffering from cognitive impairments associated with MDD.

RESUMEN

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with functional disturbances in subcortical regions. In this naturalistic prospective study (NCT03294525), we aimed to investigate relationships among subcortical functional connectivity (FC), mood symptom profiles and treatment outcome in MDD using multivariate methods. Medication-free participants with MDD (n = 135) underwent a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan at baseline and completed posttreatment clinical assessment after 8 weeks of antidepressant monotherapy. We used partial least squares (PLS) correlation analysis to explore the association between subcortical FC and mood symptom profiles. FC score, reflecting the weighted representation of each individual in this association, was computed. Replication analysis was undertaken in an independent sample (n = 74). We also investigated the relationship between FC score and treatment outcome in the main sample. A distinctive subcortical connectivity pattern was found to be associated with negative affect. In general, higher FC between the caudate, putamen and thalamus was associated with greater negative affect. This association was partly replicated in the independent sample (similarity between the two samples: r = 0.66 for subcortical connectivity, r = 0.75 for mood symptom profile). Lower FC score predicted both remission and response to treatment after 8 weeks of antidepressant monotherapy. The emphasis here on the role of dorsal striatum and thalamus consolidates prior work of subcortical connectivity in MDD. The findings provide insight into the pathogenesis of MDD, linking subcortical FC with negative affect. However, while the FC score significantly predicted treatment outcome, the low odds ratio suggests that finding predictive biomarkers for depression remains an aspiration.

RESUMEN

Witnessing violent or traumatic events is common during childhood and adolescence and could cause detrimental effects such as increased risks of psychiatric disorders. This stressor could be modeled in adolescent laboratory animals using the chronic witnessing social defeat (CWSD) paradigm, but the behavioral consequences of CWSD in adolescent animals remain to be validated for cognitive, anxiety-like, and depression-like behaviors and, more importantly, the underlying neural mechanisms remain to be uncovered. In this study, we first established the CWSD model in adolescent male mice and found that CWSD impaired cognitive function and increased anxiety levels and that these behavioral deficits persisted into adulthood. Based on the dorsal-ventral functional division in hippocampus, we employed immediate early gene c-fos immunostaining after behavioral tasks and found that CWSD-induced cognition deficits were associated with dorsal CA3 overactivation and anxiety-like behaviors were associated with ventral CA3 activity reduction. Indeed, chemogenetic activation and inhibition of dorsal CA3 neurons mimicked and reversed CWSD-induced recognition memory deficits (not anxiety-like behaviors), respectively, whereas both inhibition and activation of ventral CA3 neurons increased anxiety-like behaviors in adolescent mice. Finally, chronic administration of vortioxetine (a novel multimodal antidepressant) successfully restored the overactivation of dorsal CA3 neurons and the cognitive deficits in CWSD mice. Together, our findings suggest that dorsal CA3 overactivation mediates CWSD-induced recognition memory deficits in adolescent male mice, shedding light on the pathophysiology of adolescent CWSD-induced adverse effects and providing preclinical evidence for early treatment of stress-induced cognitive deficits.
