One Health and planetary health fields particularly address such complexities and invite us to think across the conventional disease nosologies. For example, tuberculosis (TB) and lung cancer (LC) are major pulmonary diseases with significant planetary health implications. Despite distinct etiologies, they can coexist in a given community or patient. This is both a challenge and an opportunity for preventive medicine, diagnostics, and therapeutics innovation. This study reports a bioinformatics analysis of publicly available gene expression data, identifying overlapping dysregulated genes, downstream regulators, and pathways in TB and LC. Analysis of NCBI-GEO datasets (GSE83456 and GSE103888) unveiled differential expression of <i>CEACAM6</i>, <i>MUC1</i>, <i>ADM</i>, <i>DYSF</i>, <i>PLOD2</i>, and <i>GAS6</i> genes in both diseases, with pathway analysis indicating association with lysine degradation pathway. Random forest, a machine-learning-based classification, achieved accuracies of 84% for distinguishing TB from controls and 83% for discriminating LC from controls using these specific genes. Additionally, potential drug targets were identified, with molecular docking confirming the binding affinity of warfarin to <i>GAS6</i>. Taken together, the present study speaks of the pressing need to rethink clinical diagnostic categories of human diseases and that TB and LC might potentially share molecular substrates. Going forward, planetary health and One Health scholarship are poised to cultivate new ways of thinking about diseases not only across medicine and ecology but also across traditional diagnostic conventions.</p>","PeriodicalId":19530,"journal":{"name":"Omics A Journal of Integrative Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141296504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play cross-cutting mechanistic roles in the complex interplay between viral pathogenesis, host survival, and clinical outcomes. The present study set out to identify etiologically significant human miRNAs associated with HBV infection in liver-related pathologies leading to HCC. In diverse tissue types, we assembled 573 miRNAs differentially expressed in HBV-associated liver pathologies, HBV infection, fibrosis, cirrhosis, acute on chronic liver failure, and HCC. Importantly, 43 human differentially expressed miRNAs (hDEmiRs) were regulated in serum/plasma and liver tissue of patients with HBV-positive conditions. However, only two hDEmiRs, hsa-miR-21-5p and hsa-miR-143-3p, were regulated across all disease conditions. To shortlist the functional miRNAs in HBV-induced HCC pathogenesis, a reverse bioinformatics analysis was performed using eight GEO datasets and the TCGA database containing the list of differentially regulated mRNAs in HCC. A comparative study using these data with the identified targets of hDEmiRs, a set of unidirectionally regulated hDEmiRs with the potential to modulate mRNAs in HCC, were found. Moreover, our study identified five miRNAs; hsa-miR-98-5p, hsa-miR-193b-3p, hsa-miR-142-5p, hsa-miR-522-5p, and hsa-miR-370-3p targeting <i>PIGC</i>, <i>KNTC1</i>, <i>CSTF2</i>, <i>SLC41A2</i>, and <i>RAB17</i>, respectively, in HCC.

A One Health approach can benefit the public health systems in Africa that are overburdened by noncommunicable, infectious, and environmental diseases. Notably, the COVID-19 pandemic revealed the previously overlooked two-fold importance of pharmacogenetics (PGx), for individually tailored treatment of noncommunicable diseases and environmental pathogens. For example, dyslipidemia, a common cardiometabolic risk factor, has been identified as an independent COVID-19 severity risk factor. Observational data suggest that patients with COVID-19 infection receiving lipid-lowering therapy may have better outcomes. However, among African patients, the response to these drugs varies from patient to patient, pointing to the possible contribution of genetic variation in important pharmacogenes. The PGx of lipid-lowering therapies may underlie differences in treatment responses observed among dyslipidemia patients as well as patients comorbid with COVID-19 and dyslipidemia. Genetic variations in <i>APOE, ABCB1, CETP, CYP2C9, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, HMGCR, LDLR, NPC1L1,</i> and <i>SLCO1B1 g</i>enes affect the pharmacogenomics of statins, and they have individually been linked to differential responses to dyslipidemia and COVID-19 treatment. African populations are underrepresented in PGx research. This leads to poor accounting of additional diverse genetic variants that could be important in understanding interindividual and between-population variations in therapeutic responses to dyslipidemia and COVID-19.

We investigated microbial diversity in rhizosphere of the pomegranate \"Bhagwa\" variety and its potential role in PGP and biocontrol. Both bulk and rhizosphere soil samples were analyzed for their physicochemical properties. Whole metagenome sequencing was conducted using the Illumina NovaSeq6000 platform. Surprisingly, we found that bulk and rhizosphere soil samples had comparable microbial diversity. Metagenome sequencing revealed the abundance of <i>Streptomyces indicus, Bradyrhizobium kalamazoonesis,</i> and <i>Pseudomonas cellulosum</i> in the rhizosphere that are reported here for the first time in agricultural literature. Pathway prediction analysis using KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia for Genes and Genomes) and COG (clusters of orthologous genes) databases identified metabolic pathways associated with biocontrol properties against pathogens. We confirmed the metagenome data <i>in vitro</i>, which demonstrated their PGP potential and antimicrobial properties. For instance, <i>S. indicus</i> produced high concentration of indole-3-acetic acid, a PGP phytohormone, that can stimulate plant growth. In addition, an antimicrobial susceptibility assay suggested that bacterial extracts displayed activity against <i>Xanthomonas</i>, a primary pathogen causing the pomegranate wilt disease. In conclusion, this study suggests that <i>S. indicus, B. kalamazoonesis</i>, and <i>P. cellulosum</i> can potentially be PGP and biocontrol agents that may contribute to increased crop productivity in pomegranate cultivation.

This study explored the microbiome dynamics in axolotl limb regeneration by examining the microbial communities present in neotenic and metamorphic axolotls at two critical stages of limb regeneration: pre-amputation and during blastema formation. Utilizing 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, we investigated the variations in microbiome profiles associated with different developmental and regenerative states. Our findings reveal a distinct separation in the microbiome profiles of neotenic and metamorphic samples, with a clear demarcation in microbial composition at both the phylum and genus levels. In neotenic 0DPA samples, Proteobacteria and Firmicutes were the most abundant, whereas in neotenic 7DPA samples, Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes dominated. Conversely, metamorphic samples displayed a higher abundance of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes at 0DPA and Proteobacteria and Firmicutes at 7DPA. Alpha and beta diversity analyses, along with dendrogram construction, demonstrated significant variations within and between the sample groups, suggesting a strong influence of both developmental stage and regenerative state on the microbiome. Notably, Flavobacterium and Undibacterium emerged as distinctive microbial entities in neotenic 7DPA samples, highlighting potential key players in the microbial ecology of regeneration. These findings suggest that the axolotl's microbiome is dynamically responsive to blastema formation, and they underscore the potential influence of microbial communities on the regeneration process.

Therefore, it is imperative to first ascertain the miRNA coding potential of genomes and understand the regulatory mechanisms of their expression. This knowledge enables the efficient classification of miRNA precursors and the identification of their mature forms and respective target genes. Second, and because one miRNA can target multiple mRNAs and <i>vice versa</i>, another challenge is the assessment of the miRNA-mRNA target interaction network.
