The myostatin (mstn) and myostatinb (mstnb) gene of Cranoglanis bouderius were cloned and sequenced and their expressions under nutritional restriction were characterized. The full cDNA sequences of mstn and mstnb were 1878 bp and 1928 bp, containing an open reading frame of 1170 bp and 1119 bp, which encoded 390 and 373 amino acids, respectively. The deduced mstn and mstnb sequence structures were similar to other members of TGF-beta superfamily, including the TGF beta pro-peptide, TGF beta domain, proteolytic processing site and nine conserved cysteines in the C-terminal. In addition, four mstn gene duplications were found in Cranoglanis bouderius. Sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree analyses indicated that the mstn gene and mstnb gene had a close relationship with Siluriformes fish, and the mstn and mstnb genes were roughly classified into two groups. RT-PCR analysis revealed that the mstn and mstnb were expressed in a variety of tissues in Cranoglanis bouderius although the mstn was highly expressed in skeletal muscle and the mstnb was mainly expressed in brain. We speculate that the mstn gene but not mstnb is likely to play a key role in managing muscle growth. A fasting-re-feeding experiment was used to evaluate the effects of starvation on mstn and mstnb expressions in juvenile Cranoglanis bouderius for 5 weeks. The result showed that the mstn and mstnb transcript levels varied among tissues. The mRNA expression levels of mstn in muscle, brain and liver gradually decreased during starvation and returned to the normal level after re-feeding. The mstnb mRNA levels in muscle, brain, liver, spleen, intestine and kidney increased during an early fast time but ultimately decreased with prolonged fasting time. The mstnb transcript levels in muscle, brain and liver increased significantly after re-feeding. In summary, the results supported that the mstn and mstnb may not be limited to control of muscle growth in fish but could also be involved in other biological functions.

Xiangge Meng, Chengping Li, Yu Hei, Xiang Zhou, Guoli Zhou

Summary: The study used IVT-SAPAS sequencing to analyze the dynamic changes of APA sites during adipogenesis in bovine subcutaneous preadipocytes and intramuscular preadipocytes. The results showed that APA plays an important role in adipocyte differentiation, and UTR-APA switching genes have different trends, with intramuscular preadipocytes tending to use shorter 3'UTR for differentiation. TRIB3, WWTR1, and INSIG1 play important roles in intramuscular preadipocyte differentiation.

Genome-wide regulation of Pol II, FACT, and Spt6 occupancies by RSC in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Emily Biernat, Mansi Verma, Chhabi K. Govind

Summary: RSC is an essential ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It regulates nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs) by sliding flanking nucleosomes away from NDRs. Depletion of RSC leads to nucleosome encroachment in NDRs and transcription initiation defects. The study compared the effects of catalytic-dead Sth1 and rapid depletion of Sth1 on transcription. Rapid depletion of Sth1 reduces recruitment of TBP and Pol II, while the catalytic-dead mutant exhibits a severe reduction in TBP binding but accumulates Pol II in coding regions. The results suggest a role for RSC in transcription elongation and termination processes.

miR-124-3p regulates the involvement of Ptpn1 in testicular development and spermatogenesis in mouse

Lvjing Luo, Lishuang Sun, Shu Li, Huiting Liu, Zhengyu Chen, Shi Huang, Yinyin Mo, Genliang Li

Summary: This study analyzed the expression of Ptpn1 and miR-124-3p in testicular tissues of mice and investigated their regulatory relationship. The results showed that Ptpn1 expression was up-regulated in adult mouse testis compared to juvenile mouse testis, while miR-124-3p expression showed an opposite pattern. Further analysis suggested that the down-regulation of miR-124-3p may contribute to the high expression of Ptpn1 in adult mouse testis.

Age-different BMSCs-derived exosomes accelerate tendon-bone interface healing in rotator cuff tears model

Jianping Zhang, Zhijun Cai, Fanzhe Feng, Yufeng Peng, Yi Cui, Yongiqing Xu

Summary: This study found that exosomes secreted by young BMSCs can promote the healing of tendon-bone interface after rotator cuff tears. These exosomes can improve extracellular matrix remodeling, osteogenic differentiation, angiogenesis, and stemness of tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs). The exosomes from young BMSCs have better effects compared to those from aged BMSCs.
