- Genetic regulation of splicing uniquely contributes to trait-associated genome-wide association studies (GWAS) signals. However, quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis using short-read sequencing of bulk tissues fails to capture full-length and cell-type-specific isoforms. Here, we present an isoform-level lung cell atlas from 129 never-smoking Korean women using single-cell long-read RNA-sequencing, identifying abundant unannotated and cell-type-specific isoforms. Isoform-level signatures of 37 lung cell types display a larger difference and therefore improve cell-type classification compared to gene-level expression. Notably, isoform-QTLs (isoQTLs) detect unannotated and/or cell-type-specific isoforms with independent genetic regulation from expression-QTL (eQTL), supported by enriched splicing functional elements. IsoQTLs nominate susceptibility isoforms from previously unexplained lung function and cancer GWAS loci, via eQTL-independent signals. We highlight a potentially functional novel variant of in multiciliated cells underlying lung cancer risk through alternative splicing. This isoform-level resource advances our understanding of cell-type-specific isoform regulation and its contribution to lung traits and diseases. - Source: PubMed

Despite distinct clinicopathologic features, all EOC histotypes typically receive identical primary treatment, and are often studied as a single entity. - Source: PubMed

Radial spokes (RSs), a T-shaped macromolecular complex, connect the peripheral doublet microtubules (DMTs) to a central pair (CP), forming a CP-RS-DMT structure to regulate the beat frequency and amplitude of sperm flagella. To date, many components of RSs and their functions in human sperm flagella remain unclear. - Source: PubMed

Hu TingwenyiTang XiangrongRuan TiechaoLong ShunhuaLiu GuicenMa JingLi XueqiZhang RuoxuanHuang GuoningShen YingLin Tingting - Obesity is a risk factor for increased morbidity and mortality in viral respiratory infection. Mucociliary clearance (MCC) in the airway is the primary host defense against viral infections. However, the impact of obesity on MCC is unclear, prompting this study. Using murine tracheal tissue culture and in vitro influenza A virus (IAV) infection models, we analyzed cilia-driven flow and ciliary beat frequency (CBF) in the airway epithelium to evaluate MCC. Short-term IAV infection increased cilia-driven flow and CBF in control mice, but not in high-fat diet-induced obese mice. Basal cilia-driven flow and CBF were also lower in obese mice than in control mice. Mechanistically, the increase of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release during IAV infection, which was observed in the control mice, was abolished in the obese mice; however, the addition of ATP increased cilia-driven flow and CBF both in control and obese mice to a similar extent. In addition, RNA sequencing and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction revealed the downregulation of several cilia-related genes, including , , and (the dynein-related genes); (the polychaete differentiation gene); (the ciliogenesis and intraflagellar transport gene); , , and (the radial spoke structure and assembly gene); and (the nexin-dynein regulatory complex genes) in obese murine tracheal tissues compared with their control levels. In conclusion, our studies demonstrate that obesity attenuates MCC under basal conditions and during IAV infection by downregulating the expression of cilia-related genes and suppressing the release of extracellular ATP, thereby increasing the susceptibility and severity of IAV infection. Our study shows that obesity impairs airway mucociliary clearance (MCC), an essential physical innate defense mechanism for viral infection. Mechanically, this is likely due to the obesity-induced downregulation of cilia-related genes and attenuation of extracellular ATP release. This study provides novel insights into the mechanisms driving the higher susceptibility and severity of viral respiratory infections in individuals with obesity. - Source: PubMed
