Understanding Recognition of Primary MicroRNAs by Human Drosha/DGCR8

open access: yes, 2020
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.

MicroRNA‐Mediated Autophagy and Cardiovascular Diseases: Exploring the Crossroads of Atherosclerosis and Beyond

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 18, September 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...

MicroRNA regulator gene mutations in thyroid follicular nodular disease and thyroid cancer: does it all come down to timing?

open access: yesEuropean Thyroid Journal
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

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
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

open access: yes, 2004
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.

LRRK2 Contributes to Secondary Brain Injury Through a p38/Drosha Signaling Pathway After Traumatic Brain Injury in Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
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]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
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 ...

MicroRNA‐Driven Regulation of β‐Cell Function in Type 2 Diabetes: Molecular Mechanisms, Network Insights, and Translational Perspectives

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 9, September 2026.
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.

open access: yes, 2013
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.
