Electrophoretic Analysis of Isozymes and Proteins in F_1 Hybrids of Ctenopharyngodon idellus ♀ × Elopichthys bambusa ♂

[ Objective] This study aimed to investigate the biochemical and genetic characteristics of F1 hybrids of Ctenopharyngodon idellus ♀× Elopichthys bambusa ♂ - [ Method ] By using vertical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis technology, three isozymes （LDH, EST, MDH） in nine tissues （heart, brain, eyes, liver, kidney, spleen, fin, muscle, plasma） of F1 hybrids of C. ideUus and parents were compared. [Result] Three isozymes in F1 hybrids of ♀× E. bambusa ♀ were analyzed; differences in isozyme and proteins between F1 hybrids idellus ♀× E. bambusa ♀ exhibited varying degrees of tissue-specificity; isozymes and proteins in F, hybrids were signiticandy different from the parents. [ Conclusion] These nine differences could be used as indicators to identify F1 hybrids and parents.

Microbiota enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis-secreted BFT-1 promotes breast cancer cell stemness and chemoresistance through its functional receptor NOD1

Tumor-resident microbiota in breast cancer promotes cancer initiation and malignant progression.However,targeting microbiota to improve the effects of breast cancer therapy has not been investigated in detail.Here,we evaluated the microbiota composition of breast tumors and found that enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis(ETBF)was highly enriched in the tumors of patients who did not respond to taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy.ETBF,albeit at low biomass,secreted the toxic protein BFT-1 to promote breast cancer cell stemness and chemoresistance.Mechanistic studies showed that BFT-1 directly bound to NOD1 and stabilized NOD1 protein.NOD1 was highly expressed on ALDH+breast cancer stem cells(BCSCs)and cooperated with GAK to phosphorylate NUMB and promote its lysosomal degradation,thereby activating the NOTCH1-HEY1 signaling pathway to increase BCSCs.NOD1 inhibition and ETBF clearance increase the chemosensitivity of breast cancer by impairing BCSCs.
