RNAi‐Based Pesticides: Genetic Innovations for Sustainable Crop Protection and One Health [PDF]
RNAi‐based pesticides offer precise, gene‐specific pest control using dsRNA to silence essential insect genes. Advanced delivery systems (nanoparticles, SIGS, HIGS) and multi‐omics‐driven target discovery enable effective, scalable, and environmentally safe crop protection, supporting biodiversity, human health, and One Health‐aligned sustainable ...

Universal and quantitative detection of double-stranded RNAs as a signature of pan-virus infections using a luciferase-based biosensor [PDF]
Background Infections with various RNA viruses and certain DNA viruses may produce double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) during replication, which trigger host innate immune responses.

Evaluating the potential of RNA interference for control of striped cucumber beetle, Acalymma vittatum (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) [PDF]
SCB has a robust RNAi response to injected dsRNA, but oral RNAi is less efficient. Nucleases do not appear to be responsible for the discrepancy, suggesting other factors are involved. Abstract BACKGROUND The striped cucumber beetle (SCB) is a serious pest of cucurbit crops, causing damage both by feeding on plants and by vectoring plant diseases ...

Inhibiting ADAR1‐Mediated Excessive Epigenetic A‐to‐I RNA Editing Improves the Immune Microenvironment and Increases Sensitivity to Immunotherapy in Lung Adenocarcinoma [PDF]
This study investigated the potential of inhibiting ADAR1 which catalyzed excessive A‐to‐I RNA editing as a therapeutic strategy to augment the effectiveness of immunotherapy in LUAD. Mouse models demonstrated that inhibiting ADAR1 in tumor cells significantly improved the immune microenvironment by increasing PD‐L1 expression and CD8+ T‐cell ...

Studying the effect of double-stranded RNA upon activity of mouse splenocytes using flow cytometry
Ribonucleic acids (RNA), in particular, double-stranded RNAs, due to their ability to modulate innate immune responses, are of undoubted interest in view of their usage as vaccine adjuvants.
