The poor prognosis and high recurrence rate of ovarian cancer highlight the urgent need to develop new therapeutic strategies. Oncolytic Newcastle disease virus (NDV) can kill cancer cells directly and regulate innate and adaptive immunity. In this study, ovarian cancer cells infected with or without velogenic NDV-BJ were subjected to a CCK-8 assay for detecting cell proliferation, flow cytometry for detecting the cell cycle and apoptosis, and wound healing and transwell assays for detecting cell migration and invasion. Transcriptomic sequencing was conducted to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were performed to explore the mechanism underlying the oncolytic effect of NDV on ovarian cancer cells. The results showed that infection with NDV inhibited ovarian cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion; disrupted the cell cycle; and promoted apoptosis. Compared with those in negative control cells, the numbers of upregulated and downregulated genes in ovarian cancer cells infected with NDV were 1,499 and 2,260, respectively. Thirteen KEGG pathways related to cell growth and death, cell mobility, and signal transduction were significantly enriched. Among these pathways, 48 DEGs, especially SESN2, HLA B/C/E, GADD45B, and RELA, that may be involved in the oncolytic process were screened, and qPCR analysis verified the reliability of the transcription data. This study discovered some key pathways and genes related to oncolytic NDV-induced phenotypic changes in ovarian cancer cells, which will guide our future research directions and help further explore the specific mechanisms by which infection with NDV suppresses ovarian cancer development.

Abstract
-
To gain insights into dimorphism, cell wall polysaccharides
from Tremella fuciformis strains were obtained from alkaliextracted
water-soluble fractions PTF-M38 (from the mycelial
form), PTF-Y3 and PTF-Y8 (from the yeast form) of
T. fuciformis strains were used to gain some insights into
dimorphism study. Their chemical properties and structural
features were investigated using gel permeation chromatography,
gas chromatography, UV and IR spectrophotometry
and Congo red binding reactions. The results indicated that
the backbones of PTF-M38, PTF-Y3 and PTF-Y8 were configured
with α-linkages with average molecular weights of
1.24, 1.08, and 1.19 kDa, respectively. PTF-M38 was mainly
composed of xylose, mannose, glucose, and galactose in a
ratio of 1:1.47:0.48:0.34, while PTF-Y3 and PTF-Y8 were
mainly composed of xylose, mannose and glucose in a ratio
of 1:1.65:4.06 and 1:1.21:0.44, respectively. The sugar profiles
of PTF-M38, PTF-Y3 and PTF-Y8 were also established
for further comparison. These profiles showed that all three
polysaccharides contained the same sugars but in different
ratios, and the carbon sources (xylose, mannose, glucose, and
galactose) affected the sugar ratios within the polysaccharides.
