Understanding Recognition of Primary MicroRNAs by Human Drosha/DGCR8
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by suppressing messenger RNAs. The RNase Drosha, as part of the Microprocessor complex, performs the initial processing step in miRNA biogenesis.

This graphical abstract illustrates the dynamic bidirectional crosstalk between microRNA biogenesis and autophagy, which serves as a critical regulatory axis in cardiovascular homeostasis. We highlight how specific miRNAs modulate autophagic flux to mitigate vascular inflammation and plaque instability, while concurrently, the autophagic machinery ...

Multipotency of Adult Hippocampal NSCs In Vivo Is Restricted by Drosha/NFIB [PDF]
Adult neural stem cells (NSCs) are defined by their inherent capacity to self-renew and give rise to neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. In vivo, however, hippocampal NSCs do not generate oligodendrocytes for reasons that have remained enigmatic ...

In recent years, germline mutations in the microRNA (miRNA) processor genes DICER1 and DGCR8 have been coupled to the development of thyroid follicular nodular disease (TFND), thereby casting new light on the etiology of this enigmatic, benign condition ...

MicroRNA‐Mediated Placental Maladaptation in Preeclampsia Pathogenesis
Graphical representation of miRNA‐mediated placental maladaptation in preeclampsia. Under normal pregnancy conditions, balanced expression of beneficial miRNAs (miR‐126‐3p, miR‐18a/b‐5p, miR‐144‐3p, miR‐378a‐5p, and miR‐146a‐5p) promotes trophoblast proliferation, migration and invasion, spiral artery remodeling, angiogenesis, mitochondrial function ...

The Drosha-DGCR8 complex in primary microRNA processing
RNase III proteins play key roles in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. The nuclear RNase III Drosha cleaves primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) to release hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by the cytoplasmic RNase III Dicer to generate mature miRNAs.

Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is widely expressed in the brain and exerts neurotoxicity in Parkinson’s disease. The p38/Drosha signaling activation has been reported to increase cell death under stress.

Localization and sub-cellular shuttling of HTLV-1 tax with the miRNA machinery. [PDF]
The innate ability of the human cell to silence endogenous retroviruses through RNA sequences encoding microRNAs, suggests that the cellular RNAi machinery is a major means by which the host mounts a defense response against present day retroviruses ...

ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as central regulators of pancreatic islet biology, influencing β‐cell development, proliferation, and function. In type 2 diabetes (T2D), both adaptive and maladaptive miRNA responses shape β‐cell compensation and progressive secretory dysfunction.

HTLV-1 Tax interacts with Drosha in vitro.
A) HeLa whole cell lysates (1 mg) were incubated with purified GST-fusion proteins (∼5 µg) bound to Glutathione-Sepharose beads: GST-Alone, GST-Tax wild type, GST-Tax N-terminus, 1–244, GST-Tax C-terminus, 244–336, and GST-Tax truncated, 288–353.
