The widespread use of P-nitrophenol (PNP) as a raw material in pesticides, medicines and dyes has led to environmental pollution. PNP is a well-known endocrine disruptor in mammals and quails. This study investigated the effects of long-term PNP exposure on the testicular development and semen quality of roosters. Mardepodect concentration Pubescent and postpubescent animals were given drinking water supplemented with (0 mg/L, 1 mg/L, 10 mg/L, or 100 mg/L) PNP for eight weeks or sixteen weeks. The relative testis weight, antioxidant index, serum hormone concentration, morphological changes, semen quality and expression of major steroidogenic genes were measured. The results showed that eight weeks of PNP exposure decreased CAT activity and increased H2O2 level in serum and testes in the 10 mg/L and 100 mg/L PNP-treated groups. Detached sperm cells were also found in the testicular tissues of the 100 mg/L PNP-treated group. After sixteen weeks of PNP exposure, daily weight gain, sperm motility, serum testosterone concentration and 3β1-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD3β1) mRNA expression were decreased in the 100 mg/L PNP-treated group. Some vacuoles in the seminiferous epithelium in the testicular tissues were found in the 10 mg/L and 100 mg/L PNP-treated groups. In conclusion, as an endocrine disruptor, PNP exposure impaired antioxidant capacity, reduced testosterone synthesis, caused morphological changes in testes, and ultimately decreased semen quality in the roosters. The reproductive damage of PNP to roosters depended on the length of exposure time and the administered dose.Metabolomics is a study of the entire repertoire of metabolites in a cell at a particular time point. Here, we investigate the mouse lens at multiple embryonic and postnatal time points to establish the metabolome profile during early lens development. The lenses were isolated at six time points including embryonic day 15 (E15) and E18 and postnatal day 0 (P0), P3, P6, and P9. A total of four biological replicates of each time point, each consisting of 25 mg of lens tissue were preserved. Sample preparation was performed by protein precipitation followed by centrifugation to remove proteins and recover metabolites. The resulting extract was subjected to reverse phase/ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Metabolome profiling identified a total of 353 metabolites in mouse lens, marked with an abundance of collagen, antioxidant, glycosaminoglycans, lipid, amino acid, and energy-related metabolites. A comparative metabolome analysis identified >200 metabolites exhibiting increased levels (p less then 0.05) at latter time points relative to E15. Principal component analysis revealed distinct metabolomic signatures running from E15 to P9 while random forest analysis categorized lipid-, amino acid-, and nucleotide-related metabolites contributing significantly to the separation of the time points. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report investigating the mouse lens metabolome at multiple embryonic and postnatal time points.A new microsporidian species was described from the hypoderm of Daphnia magna sampled from gibel carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) ponds located in Wuhan city, China. The infected cladocerans generally appeared opaque due to numerous plasmodia distributed in the host integument. The earliest stages observed were uninucleate meronts that were in direct contact with the host cell cytoplasm. Meronts developed into multinucleate sporogonial plasmodia enclosed in sporophorous vesicles. Sporoblasts were produced by the rosette-like division of sporogonial division. Mature spores were pyriform and monokaryotic, measuring 4.48 ± 0.09 (4.34-4.65) µm long and 2.40 ± 0.08 (2.18-2.54) µm wide. The polaroplast was bipartite with loose anterior lamellae and tight posterior lamellae. Polar filaments, arranged in two rows, were anisofilar with two wider anterior coils, and five narrower posterior coils. The exospore was covered with fibrous secretions and was composed of four layers. Phylogenetic analysis based on the obtained SSU rDNA sequence, indicated that the present species clustered with three unidentified Daphnia pulicaria-infecting microsporidia with high support values to form a monophyletic lineage, rather than with the congener, Agglomerata cladocera. The barcode motif of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the novel species was unique among representatives of the "Agglomeratidae" sensu clade (Vávra et al., 2018). Based on the morphological characters and SSU rDNA-inferred phylogenetic analyses, a new species was erected and named as Agglomerata daphniae n. sp. This is the first report of zooplankton-infecting microsporidia in China.The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pandemic poses extraordinary challenges. The tremendous number of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases in the United States has resulted in a large population of survivors with prolonged postinfection symptoms. The creation of multidisciplinary post-COVID-19 clinics to address both persistent symptoms and potential long-term complications requires an understanding of the acute disease and the emerging data regarding COVID-19 outcomes. Experience with severe acute respiratory syndrome and Middle East respiratory syndrome, post-acute respiratory distress syndrome complications, and post-intensive care syndrome also informs anticipated sequelae and clinical program design. Post-COVID-19 clinical programs should be prepared to care for individuals previously hospitalized with COVID-19 (including those who required critical care support), nonhospitalized individuals with persistent respiratory symptoms following COVID-19, and individuals with preexisting lung disease complicated by COVID-19. Effective multidisciplinary collaboration models leverage lessons learned during the early phases of the pandemic to overcome the unique logistical challenges posed by pandemic circumstances. Collaboration between physicians and researchers across disciplines will provide insight into survivorship that may shape the treatment of both acute disease and chronic complications. In this review, we discuss the aims, general principles, elements of design, and challenges of a successful multidisciplinary model to address the needs of COVID-19 survivors.
