Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Zinc Sulfate Alleviate Boron Toxicity in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.).

Boron toxicity significantly hinders the growth and development of cotton plants, therefore affecting the yield and quality of this important cash crop worldwide. Limited studies have explored the efficacy of ZnSO4 (zinc sulfate) and ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) in alleviating boron toxicity. Nanoparticles have emerged as a novel strategy to reduce abiotic stress directly. The precise mechanism underlying the alleviation of boron toxicity by ZnO NPs in cotton remains unclear. In this study, ZnO NPs demonstrated superior potential for alleviating boron toxicity compared to ZnSO4 in hydroponically cultivated cotton seedlings. Under boron stress, plants supplemented with ZnO NPs exhibited significant increases in total fresh weight (75.97%), root fresh weight (39.64%), and leaf fresh weight (69.91%). ZnO NPs positively affected photosynthetic parameters and SPAD values. ZnO NPs substantially reduced H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) by 27.87% and 32.26%, MDA (malondialdehyde) by 27.01% and 34.26%, and O2- (superoxide anion) by 41.64% and 48.70% after 24 and 72 h, respectively. The application of ZnO NPs increased the antioxidant activities of SOD (superoxide dismutase) by 82.09% and 76.52%, CAT (catalase) by 16.79% and 16.33%, and POD (peroxidase) by 23.77% and 21.66% after 24 and 72 h, respectively. ZnO NP and ZnSO4 application demonstrated remarkable efficiency in improving plant biomass, mineral nutrient content, and reducing boron levels in cotton seedlings under boron toxicity. A transcriptome analysis and corresponding verification revealed a significant up-regulation of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes, photosynthesis pathway, and ABC transporter genes with the application of ZnO NPs. These findings provide valuable insights for the mechanism of boron stress tolerance in cotton and provide a theoretical basis for applying ZnO NPs and ZnSO4 to reduce boron toxicity in cotton production.

Relationship between nitrate, heavy metal, and sterols contents in Japanese agricultural soils with risk of groundwater pollution.

In Japanese agricultural lands, nitrate-nitrogen contamination of soil and groundwater often occurs due to the application of livestock excrements and compost. Therefore, rural soils in Japan were sampled and analyzed for nitrate-nitrogen leaching, heavy metal content, and sterols associated with livestock excrement and compost to calculate contamination risk indicators. The results were analyzed using self-organizing maps and cluster analysis. Nitrate-nitrogen content using water extraction was detected in most of the sampled soils. In addition, many samples from areas that were already severely contaminated with nitrate-nitrogen showed particularly high concentrations. Coprostanol, an indicator of fecal contamination, was detected in more than half of the samples. The main source of nitrate-nitrogen contamination in these areas is livestock excrement and compost. Self-organization maps showed that areas with high nitrate-nitrogen contamination also corresponded to areas with high copper and zinc soil contents. The self-organization maps and cluster analysis resulted in five clusters: a nitrate-contaminated group mainly originating from livestock excrement and compost, a heavy metal-contaminated group, a general group, a nitrate-contaminated group mainly originating from chemical fertilizers, and a contaminated group with potentially hazardous substances requiring attention. Authorities and decision-makers can use the results to prioritize areas requiring remediation.

Experimental observation of current-driven antiskyrmion sliding in stripe domains.

Magnetic skyrmions are promising as next-generation information units. Their antiparticle-the antiskyrmion-has also been discovered in chiral magnets. Here we experimentally demonstrate antiskyrmion sliding in response to a pulsed electric current at room temperature without the requirement of an external magnetic field. This is realized by embedding antiskyrmions in helical stripe domains, which naturally provide one-dimensional straight tracks along which antiskyrmion sliding can be easily launched with low current density and without transverse deflection from the antiskyrmion Hall effect. The higher mobility of the antiskyrmions in the background of helical stripes in contrast to the typical ferromagnetic state is a result of intrinsic material parameters and elastic energy of the stripe domain, thereby smearing out the random pinning potential, as supported by micromagnetic simulations. The demonstration and comprehensive understanding of antiskyrmion movement along naturally straight tracks offers a new perspective for (anti)skyrmion application in spintronics.

Structural basis for phage-mediated activation and repression of bacterial DSR2 anti-phage defense system.

Silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) proteins typically catalyze NAD+-dependent protein deacetylation. The recently identified bacterial Sir2 domain-containing protein, defense-associated sirtuin 2 (DSR2), recognizes the phage tail tube and depletes NAD+ to abort phage propagation, which is counteracted by the phage-encoded DSR anti-defense 1 (DSAD1), but their molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we determine cryo-EM structures of inactive DSR2 in its apo form, DSR2-DSAD1 and DSR2-DSAD1-NAD+, as well as active DSR2-tube and DSR2-tube-NAD+ complexes. DSR2 forms a tetramer with its C-terminal sensor domains (CTDs) in two distinct conformations: CTDclosed or CTDopen. Monomeric, rather than oligomeric, tail tube proteins preferentially bind to CTDclosed and activate Sir2 for NAD+ hydrolysis. DSAD1 binding to CTDopen allosterically inhibits tube binding and tube-mediated DSR2 activation. Our findings provide mechanistic insight into DSR2 assembly, tube-mediated DSR2 activation, and DSAD1-mediated inhibition and NAD+ substrate catalysis in bacterial DSR2 anti-phage defense systems.

Integrating PANoptosis insights to enhance breast cancer prognosis and therapeutic decision-making.

Background: Despite advancements, breast cancer outcomes remain stagnant, highlighting the need for precise biomarkers in precision medicine. Traditional TNM staging is insufficient for identifying patients who will respond well to treatment. Methods: Our study involved over 6,900 breast cancer patients from 14 datasets, including in-house clinical data and single-cell data from 8 patients (37,451 cells). We integrated 10 machine learning algorithms in 55 combinations and analyzed 100 existing breast cancer signatures. IHC assays were conducted for validation, and potential immunotherapies and chemotherapies were explored. Results: We pinpointed six stable Panoptosis-related genes from multi-center cohorts, leading to a robust Panoptosis-model. This model outperformed existing clinical and molecular features in predicting recurrence and mortality risks, with high-risk patients showing worse outcomes. IHC validation from 30 patients confirmed our findings, indicating the model's broader applicability. Additionally, the model suggested that low-risk patients benefit more from immunotherapy, while high-risk patients are sensitive to specific chemotherapies like BI-2536 and ispinesib. Conclusion: The Panoptosis-model represents a major advancement in breast cancer prognosis and treatment personalization, offering significant insights for effectively managing a wide range of breast cancer patients.

Electron-Assisted Generation and Straight Movement of Skyrmion Bubble in Kagome TbMn6Sn6.

Topological magnetic textures are promising candidates as binary data units for the next-generation memory device. The precise generation and convenient control of nontrivial spin topology at zero field near room temperature endows the critical advantages in skyrmionic devices but is not simultaneously integrated into one material. Here, in the Kagome plane of quantum TbMn6Sn6, the expedient generation of the skyrmion bubbles in versatile forms of lattice, chain, and isolated one by converging the electron beam, where the electron intensity gradient contributes to the dynamic generation from local anisotropy variation near spin reorientation transition (SRT) is reported. Encouragingly, by utilizing the dynamic shift of the SRT domain interface, the straight movement is actualized with the skyrmion bubble slave to the SRT domain interface forming an elastic composite object, avoiding the usual deflection from the skyrmion Hall effect. The critical contribution of the SRT domain interface via conveniently electron-assisted heating is further theoretically validated in micromagnetic simulation, highlighting the compatible application possibility in advanced devices.

Transpupillary-Guided Trans-Scleral Transplantation of Subretinal Grafts in a Retinal Degeneration Mouse Model.

Transplantation of photoreceptor cells and retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells provide a potential therapy for retinal degeneration diseases. Subretinal transplantation of therapeutic donor cells into mouse recipients is challenging due to the limited surgical space allowed by the small volume of the mouse eye. We developed a trans-scleral surgical transplantation platform with direct transpupillary vision guidance to facilitate the subretinal delivery of exogenous cells in mouse recipients. The platform was tested using retinal cell suspensions and three-dimensional retinal sheets collected from rod-rich Rho::EGFP mice and cone-rich OPN1LW-EGFP;NRL-/- mice, respectively. Live/dead assay showed low cell mortality for both forms of donor cells. Retinal grafts were successfully delivered into the subretinal space of a mouse model of retinal degeneration, Rd1/NS, with minimum surgical complications as detected by multimodal confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope (cSLO) imaging. Two months post-transplantation, histological staining demonstrated evidence of advanced maturation of the retinal grafts into 'adult' rods and cones (by robust Rho::EGFP, S-opsin, and OPN1LW:EGFP expression, respectively) in the subretinal space. Here, we provide a surgical platform that can enable highly accurate subretinal delivery with a low rate of complications in mouse recipients. This technique offers precision and relative ease of skill acquisition. Furthermore, the technique could be used not only for studies of subretinal cell transplantation but also for other intraocular therapeutic studies including gene therapies.

DNAJA1 positively regulates amino acid-stimulated milk protein and fat synthesis in bovine mammary epithelial cells.

Several cellular processes, including the recovery of misfolded proteins, the folding of polypeptide chains, transit of polypeptides across the membrane, construction and disassembly of protein complexes, and modulation of protein control, are carried out by DnaJ homolog subfamily A member 1 (DNAJA1), which belongs to the DnaJ heat-shock protein family. It is unknown if DNAJA1 regulates the production of milk in bovine mammary epithelium cells (BMECs). Methionine and leucine increased DNAJA1 expression and nuclear location, as seen by us. In contrast to DNAJA1 knockdown, overexpression of DNAJA1 boosted the production of milk proteins and fats as well as mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c). As a result of amino acids, mTOR and SREBP-1c gene expression are stimulated, and DNAJA1 is a positive regulator of BMECs' amino acid-induced controlled milk protein and fat production.

Development of a quadruple qRT-PCR assay for simultaneous identification of hypervirulent and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.

IMPORTANCE: Globally, the increasing number of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) and carbapenem-resistant Kp (CR-Kp) infections poses a huge public health challenge with high morbidity and mortality. Worrisomely, due to the mobility of elements carrying virulence and drug-resistance genes, the increasing prevalence of CR-hvKp has also been found with an overwhelming mortality rate in recent years. However, the current detection methods for hvKp and CR-Kp have many disadvantages, such as long turnaround time, complex operation, low sensitivity, and specificity. Herein, a more sensitive, rapid, single-reaction, and multiplex quantitative real-time PCR was developed and validated to differentiate the circulating lineages of Kp with excellent performance in sensitivity and specificity, providing a useful tool for the differential diagnosis and the surveillance of the circulating Kp.

Wrinkle Structure Regulating Electromagnetic Parameters in Constructed Core-shell ZnFe2O4@PPy Microspheres as Absorption Materials.

Structure engineering of magnetic-dielectric multi-components is emerging as an effective approach for presuming high-performance electromagnetic (EM) absorption, but still faces bottlenecks due to the ambiguous regulation mechanism of surface morphology. Here, a novel wrinkled surface structure is tailored on the ZnFe2O4 microsphere via a spray-pyrolysis induced Kirkendall diffusion effect, the conductivity of the sample is affected, and a better impedance matching is adjusted by modulating the concentration of metal nitrate precursors. Driven by a vapor phase polymerization, conductive polypyrrole (PPy) shell are in situ decorated on the ZnFe2O4 microsphere surfaces, ingeniously constructing a core-shell ZnFe2O4@PPy composites. Moreover, a systematic investigation reveals that this unique wrinkled surface structure is highly dependent on the metal salt concentration. Optimized wrinkle ZnFe2O4@PPy composite exhibits a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) reached -41.0 dB and the effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) can cover as wide as 4.1 GHz. The enhanced interfacial polarization originated from high-density ZnFe2O4-PPy heterostructure, and the conduction loss of PPy contributes to the boosted dielectric loss capability. This study gives a significant guidance for preparing high-performance EM composites by tailoring the surface wrinkle structure.

Comparison of the Glucocorticoid Receptor Binding and Agonist Activities of Typical Glucocorticoids: Insights into Their Endocrine Disrupting Effects.

Over the past decades, the synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs) have been widely used in clinical practice and animal husbandry. Given the health hazard of these toxic residues in food, it is necessary to explore the detailed interaction mechanisms of typical GCs and their main target glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Hence, this work compared the GR binding and agonist activities of typical GCs. Fluorescence polarization assay showed that these GCs were potent ligands of GR. Their GR binding affinities were in the order of methylprednisolone>betamethasone≈prednisolone>dexamethasone, with IC50 values of 1.67, 2.94, 2.95, and 5.58 nM. Additionally, the limits of detection of dexamethasone, betamethasone, prednisolone, and methylprednisolone were 0.32, 0.14, 0.19, and 0.09 µg/kg in fluorescence polarization assay. Reporter gene assay showed that these GCs induced GR transactivation in a dose-dependent manner, confirming their GR agonist activities. Among which, dexamethasone at the concentration of 100 nM produced a maximal induction of more than 11-fold over the blank control. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations suggested that hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions played an important role in stabilizing the GC-GR-LBD complexes. In summary, this work might help to understand the GR-mediated endocrine disrupting effects of typical GCs.

Targeting the DNA repair pathway for breast cancer therapy: Beyond the molecular subtypes.

DNA repair is a vital mechanism in cells that protects against DNA damage caused by internal and external factors. It involves a network of signaling pathways that monitor and transmit damage signals, activating various cellular activities to repair DNA damage and maintain genomic integrity. Dysfunctions in this repair pathway are strongly associated with the development and progression of cancer. However, they also present an opportunity for targeted therapy in breast cancer. Extensive research has focused on developing inhibitors that play a crucial role in the signaling pathway of DNA repair, particularly due to the remarkable success of PARP1 inhibitors (PARPis) in treating breast cancer patients with BRCA1/2 mutations. In this review, we summarize the current research progress and clinical implementation of BRCA and BRCAness in targeted treatments for the DNA repair pathway. Additionally, we present advancements in diverse inhibitors of DNA repair, both as individual and combined approaches, for treating breast cancer. We also discuss the clinical application of DNA repair-targeted therapy for breast cancer, including the rationale, indications, and summarized clinical data for patients with different breast cancer subtypes. We assess their influence on cancer progression, survival rates, and major adverse reactions. Last, we anticipate forthcoming advancements in targeted therapy for cancer treatment and emphasize prospective areas of development.

In vitro, in vivo, and in silico evaluation of the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist activity of 3,6-dibromocarbazole.

3,6-Dibromocarbazole is a novel environmental contaminant which is currently detected in several environmental media worldwide. This work aims to investigate the anti-glucocorticoid potency and endocrine disrupting effects of 3,6-dibromocarbazole. In vitro experiments indicated that 3,6-dibromocarbazole possessed glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonistic activity and inhibited dexamethasone-induced GR nuclear translocation. 3,6-Dibromocarbazole reduced the expression levels of glucocorticoid responsive genes including glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), fatty acid synthase (FAS), and tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT), and further disrupted the protein expression of two key enzymes PEPCK and FAS in gluconeogenesis. In vivo experiments showed that 3,6-dibromocarbazole induced abnormal development of zebrafish embryos and disrupted the major neurohormones involved in activation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis in zebrafish larvae. The results of molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation contributed to explain the antagonistic effect of 3,6-dibromocarbazole. Taken together, this work identified 3,6-dibromocarbazole as a GR antagonist, which might exert endocrine disrupting effects by interfering the pathway of gluconeogenesis.

A bioinformatics analysis of potential cellular communication networks in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and colorectal adenoma using scRNA-seq and bulk-seq.

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the global most common chronic liver disease. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an inflammatory subtype of NAFLD, has been shown to significantly increase the risk of colorectal adenoma (CRA). Therefore, from the perspective of bioinformatics analysis, the potential mechanisms of NASH/NAFLD-CRA can be explored. Methods: In this study, we screened the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and core effect pathways between NASH and CRA by analyzing the single-cell data of CRA patients and the high-throughput sequencing data (GSE37364 and GSE89632) in the online database. We screened therapeutic targets and biomarkers through gene function classification, pathway enrichment analysis, and protein-protein interaction network analysis. In terms of single cell data, we screened the core effect pathway and specific signal pathway of cell communication through cell annotation and cell communication analyses. The purpose of the study was to find potential biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and related effect pathways of NASH-CRA. Results: NASH-CRA comorbidities were concentrated in inflammatory regulation-related pathways, and the core genes of disease progression included IL1B, FOSL1, EGR1, MYC, PTGS2, and FOS. The results suggested the key pathway of NASH-CRA might be the WNT pathway. The main cell signal communication pathways included WNT2B - (FZD6 + LRP5) and WNT2B - (FZD6 + LRP6). The send-receive process occurred in embryonic stem cells. Conclusions: The core genes of NASH-CRA (FOS, EGR1, MYC, PTGS2, FOSL1, and IL1B) may participate in inflammation and immune responses through up-regulation in the process of disease occurrence, interfering with the pathophysiological process of CRA and NASH. NASH-CRA produces cell signal communication in the WNT pathway sent by WNT2B and received by FZD6, LRP5, and LRP6 in embryonic stem cells. These findings may help formulate early diagnosis and treatment strategies for CRA in NAFLD/NASH patients, and further explore corresponding prognostic markers and potential approaches. The significance of scRNA-seq in exploring tumor heterogeneity lies in promoting our understanding of the expression program of tumor related genes in tumor development patterns. However, the biggest challenge is that this analysis may miss out on some biologically significant gene expression programs.

Evaluating the potential of nanofiltration membranes for removing ammonium, nitrate, and nitrite in drinking water sources.

Advanced drinking water treatment process using nanofiltration (NF) membranes has gained attention recently because it removes many challenging constituents in contaminated surface waters, such as dissolved organics and heavy metals. However, much literature has reported high variations and uncertainties of NF membranes for removing nitrogen compounds in the contaminated water-ammonium (NH4+), nitrates (NO3-), and nitrites (NO2-). This study aimed to identify the ability of commercial NF membranes to remove NH4+, NO2-, and NO3- and clarify the mechanisms underlying their transport through NF membranes. This was examined by evaluating their rejection by three commercial NF membranes using artificial and actual river waters under various conditions (variable permeate flux, temperature, pH, and ionic strength). Ammonium commonly showed the highest removal among the three nitrogen compounds, followed by nitrites and nitrates. Interestingly, ammonium removal varied considerably from 6% to 86%, depending on the membrane type and operating conditions. The results indicated that the selected nitrogen compounds (NH4+, NO2-, and NO3-) could be highly rejected depending on the clearance between their hydrated radius and the membrane's pore walls. Further, the rejection of the lowest molecular-weight nitrogen compound (NH4+) could be higher than NO2- and NO3- due to its highest energy barrier and larger hydrated radius. This study suggests that compliance with the drinking water regulations of NH4+, NO2-, and NO3- can be reliably achieved by selecting appropriate membrane types and predicting the range of their removal under various feed water quality and operating conditions.

Inhibition of GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis triggered by Trichinella spiralis intervention contributes to the alleviation of DSS-induced ulcerative colitis in mice.

BACKGROUND: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is increasing worldwide. Although there is currently no completely curative treatment, helminthic therapy shows certain therapeutic potential for UC. Many studies have found that Trichinella spiralis (T.s) has a protective effect on UC, but the specific mechanism is still unclear. METHODS: Balb/c mice drank dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) to induce acute colitis and then were treated with T.s. In vitro experiments, the LPS combination with ATP was used to induce the pyroptosis model, followed by intervention with crude protein from T.s (T.s cp). Additionally, the pyroptosis agonist of NSC or the pyroptosis inhibitor vx-765 was added to intervene to explore the role of pyroptosis in DSS-induced acute colitis. The degree of pyroptosis was evaluated by western blot, qPCR and IHC, etc., in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS: T.s intervention significantly inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation and GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis by downregulating the expression of pyroptosis-related signatures in vitro (cellular inflammatory model) and in vivo (DSS-induced UC mice model). Furthermore, blockade of GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis by the caspase-1 inhibitor vx-765 has a similar therapeutic effect on DSS-induced UC mice with T.s intervention, thus indicating that T.s intervention alleviated DSS-induced UC in mice by inhibiting GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis. CONCLUSION: This study showed that T.s could alleviate the pathological severity UC via GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis, and it provides new insight into the mechanistic study and application of helminths in treating colitis.

Rapid synthesis of Palladium-Platinum-Nickel ultrathin porous nanosheets with high catalytic performance for alcohol electrooxidation.

Bimetallic two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are widely used in electrocatalysis owing to their unique physicochemical properties, while trimetallic 2D materials of porous structures with large surface area are rarely reported. In this paper, a one-pot hydrothermal synthesis of ternary ultra-thin PdPtNi nanosheets is developed. By adjusting the volume ratio of the mixed solvents, PdPtNi with porous nanosheets (PNSs) and ultrathin nanosheets (UNSs) was prepared. The growth mechanism of PNSs was investigated through a series of control experiments. Notably, thanks to the high atom utilization efficiency and fast electron transfer, the PdPtNi PNSs have remarkable activity of methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) and ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR). The mass activities of the well-tuned PdPtNi PNSs for MOR and EOR were 6.21 A mg-1 and 5.12 A mg-1, respectively, much higher than those of commercial Pt/C and Pd/C. In addition, after durability test, the PdPtNi PNSs exhibited desirable stability with the highest retained current density. Therefore, this work provides a significant guidance for designing and synthesizing a new 2D material with excellent catalytic performance toward direct fuel cells applications.

Effects of 24-Epibrassinolide, melatonin and their combined effect on cadmium tolerance in Primula forbesii Franch.

This study aimed to investigate the interaction between 24-Epibrassinolide (EBR) and melatonin (MT) and their effects on cadmium (Cd)-stressed Primula forbesii Franch. P. forbesii seedlings were hydroponically acclimatized at 6-7 weeks, then treated with Cd (200 µmol L-1), 24-EBR (0.1 µmol L-1), and MT (100 µmol L-1) after two weeks. Cd stress significantly reduced crown width, shoot, root length, shoot fresh weight, and fresh and dry root weights. Herein, 24-EBR, MT, and 24-EBR+MT treatments attenuated the growth inhibition caused by Cd stress and improved the morphology, growth indexes, and ornamental characteristics of P. forbesii under Cd stress. 24-EBR had the best effect by effectively alleviating Cd stress and promoting plant growth and development. 24-EBR significantly increased all growth parameters compared to Cd treatment. In addition, 24-EBR significantly improved the gas exchange parameters, activities of antioxidant enzymes, and the cycle efficiency of AsA-GSH. Furthermore, 24-EBR increased the activities of ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), and monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) by 127.29%, 61.31%, 61.22%, and 51.04%, respectively, compared with the Cd treatment. Therefore, 24-EBR removed the reactive oxygen species produced by stress, thus protecting plants against stress damage. These results indicate that 24-EBR can effectively enhance the tolerance of P. forbesii to Cd stress.

Dynamic viral integration patterns actively participate in the progression of BK polyomavirus-associated diseases after renal transplantation.

The classical lytic infection theory along with large T antigen-mediated oncogenesis cannot explain the BK polyomavirus (BKPyV)-associated tumor secondary to BKPyV-associated nephropathy (BKVAN), viremia/DNAemia, and viruria after renal transplantation. This study performed virome capture sequencing and pathological examination on regularly collected urine sediment and peripheral blood samples, and BKVAN and tumor biopsy tissues of 20 patients with BKPyV-associated diseases of different stages. In the early noncancerous stages, well-amplified integration sites were visualized by in situ polymerase chain reaction, simultaneously with BKPyV inclusion bodies and capsid protein expression. The integration intensity, the proportion of microhomology-mediated end-joining integration, and host PARP-1 and POLQ gene expression levels increased with disease progression. Furthermore, multiomics analysis was performed on BKPyV-associated urothelial carcinoma tissues, identifying tandem-like structures of BKPyV integration using long-read genome sequencing. The carcinogenicity of BKPyV integration was proven to disturb host gene expression and increase viral oncoprotein expression. Fallible DNA double-strand break repair pathways were significantly activated in the parenchyma of BKPyV-associated tumors. Olaparib showed an antitumor activity dose-response effect in the tumor organoids without BRCA1/2 genes mutation. In conclusion, the dynamic viral integration patterns actively participate in the progression of BKPyV-associated diseases and thus could be a potential target for disease monitoring and intervention.
