Single-nucleus RNA sequencing defines adipose tissue subpopulations that contribute to Tibetan pig cold adaptation by Jiali Liu, Yao Jiang, Tianxia Liu, Chuanhe Chen, Linya Chui, Along Cui, Xueping Zhang, Xiao Wang, Yu Wang, Chunhuai Yang, Ying Zhang, Tianwen Wu, Shulin Yang, Jiaojiao Huang, Cong Tao, Jianguo Zhao, Yanfang Wang

“…Abstract Background Thermogenic beige adipocyte displays a remarkable ability in mammals to adapt to cold environments, but the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear, especially in pigs that lack functional UCP1. Results Multilocular beige adipocytes were observed in both Tibetan pigs (cold-tolerant) and Bama pigs (cold-sensitive) after short-term cold exposure (4 ℃ for 3 days). …”

Comparative study of nosZI and nosZII clade isolates: insights into their responses to environmental variables and soil fertilization types by Haoran Li, Qishi Luo, Lichao Sun, Huicui Xu, Xiaodong Hao, Kai Zhu, Ming Li, Bao Li, Wei Jiao, Jibiao Geng, Zhiqun Chen, Lihua Huang, Zongwei Xia

“…In contrast, the nosZI strain tended to increase emissions, except under the mixed fertilization regime.DiscussionThese findings highlight the importance of selecting N2O-reducing microbial strains based on their functional capacity and environmental tolerance. This work advances the development of targeted microbial strategies for mitigating N2O emissions, supporting more sustainable and climate-resilient agricultural practices.…”

Obesity-Derived Biomolecules Promote the Differentiation of THP1 Monocytes to Macrophages In Vitro by Luis I. Terrazas, Valeria Gutiérrez-Almaraz, Valentina García-Garay, Victoria Hernández-Gómez, Nohemí Salinas-Jazmín, Mónica Graciela Mendoza-Rodríguez, Jonadab Efraín Olguín

“…Background: It is well known that the microenvironment in which an immune response develops, generally pro-inflammatory or immunosuppressive, along with other overproduced biomolecules recognized by pattern recognition receptors, may promote the stimulation and differentiation of monocytes into macrophages with effector functions. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a fundamental role in cholesterol transport. …”
