Germline AGO2 mutations impair RNA interference and human neurological development [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2020
AbstractARGONAUTE-2 and associated miRNAs form the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which targets mRNAs for translational silencing and degradation as part of the RNA interference pathway. Despite the essential nature of this process for cellular function, there is little information on the role of RISC components in human development and organ ...

CSDE1 stabilizes AGO2 in embryonic stem cells

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
The cold shock domain (CSD)-containing protein, CSDE1, interacts with AGO2 and regulates miRNA function in post-transcriptional gene silencing. While the individual roles of CSDE1 and AGO2 in regulating gene expression underlying stem cell pluripotency ...

Control of hepatic gluconeogenesis by Argonaute2

Molecular Metabolism, 2018
Objective: The liver performs a central role in regulating energy homeostasis by increasing glucose output during fasting. Recent studies on Argonaute2 (Ago2), a key RNA-binding protein mediating the microRNA pathway, have illustrated its role in ...

Circ_0006174 Drives Triple Negative Breast Cancer Progression and Immune Escape Through Regulating miR‐3139/PD‐L1 Axis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) is characterized as an aggressive malignancy with limited therapeutic options. The circular RNA circ_0006174 has been implicated in oncogenic processes across various cancers; however, its specific role in the pathogenesis of TNBC remains unclear.

Circular RNAs: Epigenetic Puppeteers Pulling the Strings of Cancer Pathogenesis

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a unique class of endogenous noncoding RNAs characterized by their covalently closed loop structure, have emerged as pivotal players in cancer biology due to their exceptional stability, tissue‐specific expression, and diverse regulatory functions.
