A research group led by Prof. XIAO Wuhan from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified SET and MYND domain containing protein 3 (SMYD3) as a negative regulator of the type I interferon signaling pathway. SMYD3 directly catalyzes the dimethylation of IRF3 at lysine 39.
a research group led by Prof. ZHOU Bingsheng from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed that DBDPE exposure could impair sperm quality and spermatogenesis, and the underlying mechanism could be attributed to DNA damage and energy metabolic reprogramming in testicular germ cells by shifting glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation.
A research group led by Prof. BI Yonghong from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences elucidated the regulation mechanism of Gibberellic acid-3 (GA3) in enhancing astaxanthin biosynthesis in heterotrophic Chromochloris zofingiensis.
After China's first "space fish farming" experiment yielded fruitful results, the "fish astronauts" are expected to embark on another journey to Tiangong Space Station this year to help scientists study the effects of the space environment on vertebrate muscle and bone development.
A team of researchers in China conducted single-cell sequencing of the olfactory epithelium of zebrafish in the AB strain blank control group and the CAS-exposed group to reveal the heterogeneity of zebrafish olfactory epithelium and the response of cell populations after CAS treatment.
In 2025, six zebrafish are set to journey to China's space station, assisting scientists in exploring how the space environment impacts the muscle and skeletal development of vertebrates. This research is expected to bolster long-term human survival in space and pave the way for interplanetary habitation.
In his presentation, Prof. Dong provided an overview of various structural biology techniques and used engaging examples to explain the structural analysis of two key proteins from human parasites.
This visit not only strengthened mutual understanding between China and Thailand in the field of aquatic species conservation but also laid a solid foundation for future collaboration.
Participants were trained in a range of HAB-related topics through a combination of academic lectures, hands-on laboratory sessions, field demonstrations, and site visits.
The visit focused on discussing the future of the Yangtze finless porpoises’ conservation program.
This meeting marked the official launch of the 2025 NSFC project application cycle at IHB, underscoring the institute’s ongoing commitment to advancing scientific research and innovation.
The visit underscored the importance of cross-departmental collaboration in achieving sustainable ecological conservation and highlighted the Chishui River's critical role in China's environmental protection efforts.
I am proud to be part of an excellent interdisciplinary team, collaborating with experts in molecular genetics, structural biology, cell biology, and microbiology.
