| 2 | A transceptor-channel complex couples nitrate sensing to calcium signaling in Ambidopsis显示文摘Nitrate-induced Ca^(2+) signaling is crucial for the primary nitrate response in plants.However,the molecular mechanism underlying the generation of the nitrate-specific calcium signature remains unknown.We report here that a cyclic nucleotide-gated channel(CNGC)protein,CNGC15,and the nitrate transceptor(NRT1.1)constitute a molecular switch that controls calcium influx depending on nitrate levels.The expression of CNGC15 is induced by nitrate,and its protein is localized at the plasma membrane after establishment of young seedlings.We found that disruption of CNGC15 results in the loss of the nitrate-induced Ca^(2+) signature(primary nitrate response)and retards root growth,reminiscent of the phenotype observed in the nrt1.1 mutant.We further showed that CNGC15 is an active Ca^(2+)-permeable channel that physically interacts with the NRT1.1 protein in the plasma membrane.Importantly,we discovered that CNGC15-NRT1.1 interaction silences the channel activity of the heterocomplex,which dissociates upon a rise in nitrate levels,leading to reactivation of the CNGC15 channel.The dynamic interactions between CNGC15 and NRT1.1 therefore control the channel activity and Ca^(2+) influx in a nitrate-dependent manner.Our study reveals a new nutrient-sensing mechanism that utilizes a nutrient transceptor-channel complex assembly to couple nutrient status to a specific Ca^(2+) signature. | Xiaohan Wang Changxin Feng LiLi Tian Congcong Hou Wang Tian Bin Hu Qian Zhang Zhijie Ren Qi Niu Jiali Song Dongdong Kong Liangyu Liu Yikun He Ligeng Ma Chengcai Chu Sheng Luan Legong Li | 2021 | Molecular Plant2021，14，5： | 5 |
| 3 | The interaction of CaM7 and CNGC14 regulates root hair growth in Arabidopsis显示文摘Oscillations in cytosolic free calcium determine the polarity of tip-growing root hairs.The Ca2+channel cyclic nucleotide gated channel 14(CNGC14)contributes to the dynamic changes in Ca^2+concentration gradient at the root hair tip.However,the mechanisms that regulate CNGC14 are unknown.In this study,we detected a direct interaction between calmodulin 7(CaM7)and CNGC14 through yeast two-hybrid and bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays.We demonstrated that the third EF-hand domain of CaM7 specifically interacts with the cytosolic C-terminal domain of CNGC14.A two-electrode voltage clamp assay showed that CaM7 completely inhibitsCNGC14-mediated Ca2+influx,suggesting that CaM7 neg-atively regulates CNGC14-mediated calcium signaling.Fur-thermore,CaM7 overexpressing lines phenocopy the short root hair phenotype of a cngc14 mutant and this phenotype is insensitive to changes in external Ca^2+concentrations.We,thus,identified CaM7-CNGC14 as a novel interacting module that regulates polar growth in root hairs by con-trolling the tip-focused Ca2+signal. | Qudsia Zeb Xiaohan Wang Congcong Hou Xiwen Zhang Mengqi Dong Sisi Zhang Qian Zhang Zhijie Ren Wang Tian Huifen Zhu Legong Li Liangyu Liu | 2020 | Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2020，62，7： | 3 |

| 5 | RALF signaling pathway activates MLO calcium channels to maintain pollen tube integrity显示文摘Pollen tube tip growth requires intricate Ca^(2+)signaling.Recent studies have also identified rapid alkalization factor(RALF)-family peptides and their receptors as critical components for pollen tube tip growth and integrity.The functional relationship of RALF and calcium signaling modules remains largely unclear.Here we report that disruption of RALF signaling pathway abolished the cytosolic Ca^(2+)gradient in the pollen tube,indicating that Ca^(2+)signaling is downstream of the RALF signaling pathway.We identified MILDEW RESISTANCE LOCUS O(MLO)family proteins MLO1,5,9,15,as Ca^(2+)channels required for Ca^(2+)influx and pollen tube integrity.We further reconstituted the biochemical pathway in which signaling via RALF and RALF receptors activated MLO1/5/9/15 calcium channels.Together,we conclude that RALF peptides derived from pollen tube bind to their receptors to establish pollen tube Ca^(2+)gradient through activation of the MLO channels.Our finding has thus provided a mechanistic link between the RALF signaling pathway and Casignaling in controlling pollen tube integrity and growth.^(2+) | Qifei Gao Chao Wang Yasheng Xi Qiaolin Shao Congcong Hou Legong Li Sheng Luan | 2023 | Cell Research2023，33，1： | 1 |

| 7 | Evidence for the role of KIF17 in fish spermatid reshaping:expression pattern of KIF17 in Larimichthys polyactis spermiogenesis显示文摘The homodimeric kinesin-2 protein KIF17 functions in intracellular transport and spermiogenesis in mammals.However,its role in fish spermiogenesis has not been reported.Here,we aimed to clone full-length kif17 cDNA and determine the molecular characteristics and expression patterns of KIF17 in Larimichthys polyactis spermiogenesis.The full-length cDNA of L.polyactis kif17(Lp-kif17)was sequenced and found to contain a 332-bp 5′untranslated region,480-bp 3′untranslated region,and 2433-bp open reading frame encoding 810 amino acids.Bioinformatics analyses showed that L.polyactis KIF17(Lp-KIF17)shared high sequence similarity with homologs in other animals and possessed an N-terminal motor domain with microtubule-binding sites and adenosine triphosphate(ATP)hydrolysis sites,a stalk domain containing two coiled-coil regions,and a C-terminal tail domain.The Lp-kif17 mRNA was widely expressed in various tissues,with the highest level in the brain,followed by that in the testis.Fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH)analysis revealed that Lp-kif17 was continuously expressed in spermiogenesis,showing that it had potential functions in this process.Using immunofluorescence(IF)analysis,we found that Lp-KIF17 colocalized with tubulin and was transferred from the perinuclear cytoplasm to the side of spermatid where the tail forms during spermiogenesis.These findings suggested that KIF17 is involved in L.polyactis spermiogenesis.In particular,it may participate in nuclear shaping and tail formation by interacting with perinuclear microtubules during spermatid reshaping.In addition to providing evidence for the role of KIF17 in fish spermatid reshaping,this study provides important data for studies of reproductive biology in L.polyactis. | Jingqian WANG Xinming GAO Xuebin ZHENG Chen DU Congcong HOU Qingping XIE Bao LOU Feng LIU Shan JIN Junquan ZHU | 2021 | Journal of Oceanology and Limnology2021，39，6： | 1 |
| 8 | A chloride efflux transporter,BIG RICE GRAIN 1,is involved in mediating grain size and salt tolerance in rice显示文摘Grain size is determined by the size and number of cells in the grain.The regulation of grain size is crucial for improving crop yield;however,the genes and molecular mechanisms that control grain size remain elusive.Here,we report that a member of the detoxification efflux carrier/Multidrug and Toxic Compound Extrusion(DTX/MATE)family transporters,BIG RICE GRAIN 1(BIRG1),negatively influences grain size in rice(Oryza sativa L.).BIRG1 is highly expressed in reproductive organs and roots.In birg1 grain,the outer parenchyma layer cells of spikelet hulls are larger than in wild-type(WT)grains,but the cell number is unaltered.When expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes,BIRG1 exhibits chloride efflux activity.Consistent with this role of BIRG1,the birg1 mutant shows reduced tolerance to salt stress at a toxic chloride level.Moreover,grains from birg1 plants contain a higher level of chloride than those of WT plants when grown under normal paddy field conditions,and the roots of birg1 accumulate more chloride than those of WT under saline conditions.Collectively,the data suggest that BIRG1 in rice functions as a chloride efflux transporter that is involved in mediating grain size and salt tolerance by controlling chloride homeostasis. | Zhijie Ren Fenglin Bai Jingwen Xu Li Wang Xiaohan Wang Qian Zhang Changxin Feng Qi Niu Liying Zhang Jiali Song Fang Bao Liangyu Liu Yikun He Ligeng Ma Wang Tian Congcong Hou Legong Li | 2021 | Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2021，63，12： | 1 |
| 9 | Effects of Low Temperature Stress on the Morphology and hsp70 and hsp90 Gene Expression of Phascolosoma esculenta显示文摘Phascolosoma esculenta is an intertidal organism that has recently attracted attention because of its ability to survive at relatively low temperatures.However,the gene regulation in P.esculenta in relation to its response to low temperatures is unclear.To explore the low temperature adaptability of P.esculenta,this study analyzed the changes in the morphology and hsp70 and hsp90 gene expression of P.esculenta exposed to a low temperature gradient.At 5℃,P.esculenta stretched and softened,and some individuals moved apart from the group.Histological analysis revealed cuticle breaches,myofiber scattering,disruption of the body wall,and epithelial layer dispersion and muscle fiber rupturing in the nephridium.Furthermore,the mRNA expression levels of hsp70 and hsp90 increased under acute low temperature stress,suggesting that these genes function in low temperature tolerance.Overall,low temperature stress causes morphological changes and histological damage in P.esculenta,and hsp70 and hsp90 potentially function in the low temperature adaptability of P.esculenta.Our results provide new insights into the adaptive strategies of P.esculenta under low temperature environments. | SHEN Weiliang LIU Cheng NI Jie GAO Xinming NI Junjie WANG Jianping JIN Shan HOU Congcong WU Xiongfei ZHU Junquan | 2021 | Journal of Ocean University of China2021，20，1： | 0 |
| 10 | Percolation-induced resistivity drop in lutetium dihydride with controllable electrical conductivity over six orders of magnitude显示文摘The recent report of near-ambient superconductivity in the nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride has attracted considerable attention.Subsequent follow-up studies confirmed the pressure-induced color changes in both N-free and N-doped LuH_(2) but failed to reproduce superconductivity. It remains a puzzle why the samples in the original report exhibited pronounced resistance anomaly reminiscent of the superconducting transition. Here, we show that percolation of metallic grains with high conductivity through the insulating surfaces in cold-pressed LuH_(2) samples can occasionally produce sharp resistance drops, which even display magnetic field and/or current dependences but stay far from zero resistance. The insulating surface of LuH2grain should be attributed to the modification of hydrogen stoichiometry or the contamination by oxygen/nitrogen, resulting in an increase of resistance by over six orders of magnitude. Such an effect is more significant than that discovered recently in LaH_(3±x), which may indicate that LuH_(2) can be a potential superionic conductor. Our results call for caution in asserting the resistivity drops as superconductivity and invalidate the background subtraction in analyzing the corresponding resistance data. | Ningning Wang Jun Hou Ziyi Liu Tenglong Lu Pengfei Shan Congcong Chai Shifeng Jin Liang Ma Lifen Shi Xiao Wang Youwen Long Yue Liu Hua Zhang Xiaoli Dong Sheng Meng Miao Liu Jinguang Cheng | 2023 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2023，66，9： | 0 |
| 11 | Comprehensive and deep profiling of the plasma proteome with protein corona on zeolite NaY显示文摘Proteomic characterization of plasma is critical for the development of novel pharmacodynamic biomarkers.However,the vast dynamic range renders the profiling of proteomes extremely challenging.Here,we synthesized zeolite NaY and developed a simple and rapid method to achieve comprehensive and deep profiling of the plasma proteome using the plasma protein corona formed on zeolite NaY.Specifically,zeolite NaY and plasma were co-incubated to form plasma protein corona on zeolite NaY(NaY-PPC),followed by conventional protein identification using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.NaY was able to significantly enhance the detection of low-abundance plasma proteins,minimizing the“masking”effect caused by high-abundance proteins.The relative abundance of middleand low-abundance proteins increased substantially from 2.54%to 54.41%,and the top 20 highabundance proteins decreased from 83.63%to 25.77%.Notably,our method can quantify approximately 4000 plasma proteins with sensitivity up to pg/mL,compared to only about 600 proteins identified from untreated plasma samples.A pilot study based on plasma samples from 30 lung adenocarcinoma patients and 15 healthy subjects demonstrated that our method could successfully distinguish between healthy and disease states.In summary,this work provides an advantageous tool for the exploration of plasma proteomics and its translational applications. | Congcong Ma Yanwei Li Jie Li Lei Song Liangyu Chen Na Zhao Xueping Li Ning Chen Lixia Long Jin Zhao Xin Hou Li Ren Xubo Yuan | 2023 | Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis2023，13，5： | 0 |
| 12 | Overview of epigenetic degraders based on PROTAC, molecular glue, and hydrophobic tagging technologies显示文摘Epigenetic pathways play a critical role in the initiation, progression, and metastasis of cancer. Over the past few decades, significant progress has been made in the development of targeted epigenetic modulators(e.g., inhibitors). However, epigenetic inhibitors have faced multiple challenges,including limited clinical efficacy, toxicities, lack of subtype selectivity, and drug resistance. As a result,the design of new epigenetic modulators(e.g., degraders) such as PROTACs, molecular glue, and hydrophobic tagging(Hy T) degraders has garnered significant attention from both academia and pharmaceutical industry, and numerous epigenetic degraders have been discovered in the past decade. In this review,we aim to provide an in-depth illustration of new degrading strategies(2017-2023) targeting epigenetic proteins for cancer therapy, focusing on the rational design, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, clinical status, and crystal structure information of these degraders. Importantly, we also provide deep insights into the potential challenges and corresponding remedies of this approach to drug design and development. Overall, we hope this review will offer a better mechanistic understanding and serve as a useful guide for the development of emerging epigenetic-targeting degraders. | Xiaopeng Peng Zhihao Hu Limei Zeng Meizhu Zhang Congcong Xu Benyan Lu Chengpeng Tao Weiming Chen Wen Hou Kui Cheng Huichang Bi Wanyi Pan Jianjun Chen | 2024 | Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B2024，14，2： | 0 |
| 13 | Molecular Characterization, Tissue Distribution and Localization of Larimichthys crocea Kif3a and Kif3b and Expression Analysis of Their Genes During Spermiogenesis显示文摘KIF3A and KIF3B are two N-terminal motor proteins belonging to the kinesin-II superfamily that play essential roles in spermiogenesis.To understand the roles played by KIF3 A/3B during spermatogenesis of large yellow croaker Larimichthys crocea,we studied the testis characteristics at different developmental stages of L.crocea,and determined the spatiotemporal expression patterns of kif3a and kif3b during spermiogenesis.Quantitative real-time PCR(qR T-PCR)showed that the overall trends of kif3 a/3 b m RNA abundance during testis development are similar.From stage Ⅱ to stage V,kif3a/3b m RNA abundances first increased and then fell after reaching a peak at stage IV.Interestingly,the m RNA abundances of both genes at stage V were higher than those at stages Ⅱ and Ⅲ.In addition,it is worth of noting that kif3 b m RNA abundance was higher than that of kif3a at all stages.Fluorescence in situ hybridization results revealed that kif3a/3b m RNA abundance dynamics were consistent with the migration of mitochondria,the deformation of nucleus,and the formation of tail.The m RNA hybridization signals of both genes first appeared either around the nuclear periphery or on the side of the nuclei,then appeared at one side of nuclei,and finally were mainly on the tail during spermiogenesis.Our findings contributed to better understanding the molecular mechanisms of spermiogenesis in fish;and suggested that KIF3A and KIF3B may participate in the intracellular transport of mitochondria,nuclear deformation,and the formation of tail during the spermiogenesis in L.crocea. | MU Danli DU Chen FU Suyan WANG Jingqian HOU Congcong TANG Daojun ZHU Junquan | 2019 | Journal of Ocean University of China2019，18，6： | 0 |
| 14 | Characterization,expression dynamics,and potential function of OPA1 for regulation of mitochondrial morphology during spermiogenesis in Phascolosoma esculenta显示文摘Mitochondria undergo morphological changes during spermatogenesis in some animals.The mechanism and role of mitochondrial morphology regulation,however,remain somewhat unclear.In this study,we analyzed the molecular characteristics,expression dynamics and subcellular localization of optic atrophy protein 1(OPA1),a mitochondrial fusion and cristae maintenance-related protein,to reveal the possible regulatory mechanisms underlying mitochondrial morphology in Phascolosoma esculenta spermiogenesis.The full-length cDNA of the P.esculenta opa1 gene(Pe-opa1)is 3743 bp in length and encodes 975 amino acids.The Pe-OPA1 protein is highly conservative and includes a transmembrane domain,a GTPase domain,two helical bundle domains,and a lipid-interacting stalk.Gene and protein expression was higher in the coelomic fluid(a site of spermatid development)of male P.esculenta and increased first and then decreased from March to December.Moreover,their expression during the breeding stage was significantly higher than during the non-breeding stage,suggesting that Pe-OPA1 is involved in P.esculenta reproduction.The Pe-OPA1 protein was more abundant in components consisting of many spermatids than in components without,indicating that Pe-OPA1 mainly plays a role in the spermatid in coelomic fluid.Moreover,Pe-OPA1 was mainly detected in the spermatid mitochondria.Immunofluorescence experiments showed that the Pe-OPA1 are constitutively expressed and co-localized with mitochondria during spermiogenesis,suggesting its involvement in P.esculenta spermiogenesis.These results provide evidence for Pe-OPA1's involvement in the regulation of mitochondrial morphology during spermiogenesis. | Xinming GAO Binbin FENG Chen DU Congcong HOU Shan JIN Daojun TANG Junquan ZHU | 2024 | Journal of Oceanology and Limnology2024，42，1： | 0 |
| 15 | Influence of advanced engineering measures on displacement and stress field of surrounding rock in tunnels crossing active strike-slip faults显示文摘Based on significant improvements in engineering materials,three advanced engineering measures have been proposed-super anchor cables,high-strength concrete anti-fault caverns,and grouting modification using high-strength concrete-to resist fault dislocation in the surrounding rock near tunnels crossing active strike-slip faults.Moreover,single-or multiple-joint advanced engineering measures form the local rock mass-anti-fault(LRAF)method.A numerical method was used to investigate the influence of LRAF methods on the stress and displacement fields of the surrounding rock,and the anti-fault effect was evaluated.Finally,the mechanism of action of the anchor cable was verified using a three-dimensional numerical model.The numerical results indicated that the anchor cable and grouting modification reduced the displacement gradient of the local surrounding rock near the tunnels crossing fault.Furthermore,anchor cable and grouting modifications changed the stress field of the rock mass in the modified area.The tensile stress field of the rock mass in the modified anchor cable area was converted into a compressive stress field.The stress field in the modified grouting area changed from shear stress in the fault slip direction to tensile stress in the axial tunnel direction.The anti-fault cavern resisted the dislocation displacement and reduced the maximum dislocation magnitude,displacement gradient,and shear stress.Among the three advanced engineering measures,the anchor cable was the core of the three advanced engineering measures.An anchor cable,combined with other LRAF measures,can form an artificial safety island at the cross-fault position of the rock mass to protect the tunnel.The research results provide a new supporting idea for the surrounding rock of tunnels crossing active strike-slip faults. | Hui ZHOU Jiancheng XIAO Manchao HE Jingjing LU Zhigang TAO Futong XU Congcong HOU | 2023 | Frontiers of Structural and Civil Engineering2023，17，10： | 0 |
| 16 | Prohibitin Protein Expression During Spermatogenesis in the Large Yellow Croaker, Larimichthys crocea显示文摘Mitochondria are important for animals’fertility,and their morphologies and functions during spermatogenesis are un-der investigation.However,the molecular mechanism that regulates the mitochondrial dynamic during spermatogenesis is still un-known.In this study,the cytological features of spermatogenesis were investigated in Larimichthys crocea.In addition,the structure and function of prohibitin(PHB),which is associated with mitochondrial structure and dynamic,was also investigated.The full-length cDNA and protein(Lc-PHB)from the L.crocea phb gene(Lc-phb)contained 1625 base pairs and 271 amino acids,respec-tively.Lc-PHB had a conserved primary structure that resulted in a transmembrane,SPFH(the analogous region of proteins stomat-ins,prohibitins,flotillins and HflK/C),and coiled-coil domains.It was detected at high levels in the muscle,liver,and heart,and at intermediate levels in the testis,gill,and brain.Lc-phb mRNA expression was detected in spermatogenic cells by fluorescence in situ hybridization.An immunofluorescence assay revealed that PHB protein was localized in the mitochondria during spermatogenesis.Specifically,PHB expression was detected in the perinuclear cytoplasm of spermatogonia,spermatocytes,and spermatids in the early developmental stage,and mainly localized on one side of the nuclei in the cytoplasm of spermatids in a middle developmental stage,and finally on the sperm midpiece.Western blotting showed that PHB was located in the extracted mitochondria protein fraction but not in the cytoplasm protein fraction of testes.Conclusively,these results indicated that PHB was expressed in the mitochondria dur-ing spermatogenesis.In addition,the study explained the mitochondrial dynamic during fish spermatogenesis and proposed a possi-ble relationship among PHB,spermatogenesis,and male fertility. | LIN Chenwen GAO Xinming NI Jie ZHANG Shengshuo LIU Cheng LUO Shengyu DU Chen ZHENG Xuebin HOU Congcong TANG Daojun ZHANG Chundan ZHU Junquan | 2022 | Journal of Ocean University of China2022，21，5： | 0 |

| 18 | Physiological and histological responses of Phascolosoma esculenta (Sipuncula: Phascolosomatidea) to acute heat stress显示文摘Temperature is an important factor affecting the growth,development,and survival of organisms.The effects of temperature stress on aquatic organisms have received increasing attention,as these organisms are mostly poikilotherms and their body temperature are directly corresponding changes with ambient temperature,resulting in they are easily exposed in temperature stress.However,little is known about the effects of high temperature on Sipuncula.In this study,we investigated the effects of acute heat stress on malondialdehyde(MDA)concentration,the activities of antioxidant(superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase)and immunity-related(acidic and alkaline phosphatase)enzymes,heat shock protein 70(hsp70)and hsp90 gene expression,and the histological structure of the sipunculid Phascolosoma esculenta.Within the coelom fl uid,the MDA concentration and all detected antioxidant enzyme activities increased during high temperature stress;signifi cant increases were also observed here and in the intestine in the hsp70 and hsp90 mRNA expression levels.These results indicated that acute heat stress caused oxidative stress;antioxidants and heat shock proteins probably act to protect P.esculenta against oxidative damage,constituting part of its physiological mechanism for adaptation to high temperatures.In addition,the increased activity of the acidic and alkaline phosphatases indicated eff ects on its nonspecifi c immune system.Furthermore,damaged tissue structures were observed in the body wall,retractor muscle,intestine,and nephridium after 96 h of 40-℃ stress.The damaged cells of these tissues showed obvious condensed chromatin around the nuclear membrane.This histological damage suggests that heat stress could affect movement,food absorption,digestion,and excretion in P.esculenta.These results elucidate the effects of temperature stress on P.esculenta and its physiological response mechanisms and provide practical indicators for assessing heat stress status and determining suitable culture temperatures for P.esculenta. | Xinming GAO Haiyan YANG Daojun TANG Chen DU Shan JIN Congcong HOU Chundan ZHANG Junquan ZHU Jianping WANG | 2022 | Journal of Oceanology and Limnology2022，40，2： | 0 |
| 19 | Environmental hypoxia induces apoptosis in large yellow croaker Larimichthys crocea via both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways显示文摘Hypoxia has become an unfavorable factor affecting the sustainable development of the large yellow croaker Larimichthys crocea,an economically important mariculture fish in China.Apoptosis is a consequence of hypoxia on fish.However,the effects of hypoxia stress on apoptosis in L.crocea remain largely unknown.We investigated the effect of environmental hypoxia on apoptosis in L.crocea.Results show that hypoxia induced apoptosis in L.crocea both in vivo and in vitro.The mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly reduced in large yellow croaker fry(LYCF)cells.The expression levels of Bcell lymphoma/leukemia-2(Bcl-2)m RNA and protein were also significantly decreased in the liver and LYCF cells during 96 h and 48 h of hypoxia stress,respectively,whereas the expression level of Bcl-2 associated X(Bax)mRNA,Casp3 mRNA,and activity of caspase-3/7/9 were significantly increased,indicating that hypoxia induced caspase-dependent intrinsic apoptosis in L.crocea.The expression level of the apoptosis-inducing factor(AIF)protein was significantly increased in the liver and LYCF cells.The level of AIF protein was significantly decreased in the cytoplasm but increased in the nuclei of L.crocea,demonstrating that hypoxia induced the AIF-mediated caspase-independent intrinsic apoptosis.In addition,the activity of caspase-8 was significantly increased,indicating that hypoxia stress induced extrinsic apoptosis in L.crocea.Therefore,hypoxia induced apoptosis in L.crocea through both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways.The present study accumulated basic biological information to help elucidate the mechanism of hypoxia response in marine fish. | Shengyu LUO Cheng LIU Xinming GAO Jingqian WANG Yibo ZHANG Jie DING Congcong HOU Junquan ZHU Bao LOU Weiliang SHEN Xiongfei WU Chundan ZHANG | 2023 | Journal of Oceanology and Limnology2023，41，6： | 0 |
| 20 | Testis Development and Ultrastructural Features During Spermatogenesis in Cultured Small Yellow Croaker,Larimichthys polyactis显示文摘The small yellow croaker Larimichthys polyactis is an economically important marine fish in Northeast Asia.Currently,its natural resources are threatened by overfishing and environmental pollution.Therefore,research on the reproductive system of the fish is crucial.Here,we studied the testis development and ultrastructural features of spermatogenesis in cultured L.polyactis using anatomical,histological,and ultrastructural techniques.A pair of testes,consisting of a central sperm duct and radial seminiferous lobules,were observed.The reproduction cycle of testes can be divided into stages I–VI.March to May was confirmed as the breeding season for male L.polyactis,while April is the ideal period for artificial breeding.The male L.polyactis can attain sexual maturity within 1 year.The spermatogenesis of L.polyactis comprised spermatogonium,spermatocyte,spermatid,and mature spermatozoon.The morphology of spermatogenic cells changed obviously during spermiogenesis,including nuclear shaping,midpiece and flagellum formation.The mature sperms consist of an ellipsoidal head,a short midpiece,and a long flagellum.The anterior of the head with a kidney-shaped nucleus can be distinguished.The midpiece is located posterior to the head and includes four to six spherical mitochondria.The flagellum has irregular lateral fins.The testis of L.polyactis is an unrestricted lobular type,with cystic spermatogenesis,type II spermiogenesis,and type II spermatozoa.These features are highly similar to those of other Sciaenid species.Our findings provide useful insights into the mechanism underlying testis development and spermatogenesis of L.polyactis,which can facilitate the artificial breeding of this species. | ZHENG Xuebin WANG Jingqian GAO Xinming DU Chen HOU Congcong XIE Qingping LIU Feng ZHU Junquan LOU Bao | 2023 | Journal of Ocean University of China2023，22，5： | 0 |
