Specific interference by ingested dsRNA

open access: yesNature, 1998
A genetic interference phenomenon in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has been described in which expression of an individual gene can be specifically reduced by microinjecting a corresponding fragment of double-stranded (ds) RNA1. One striking feature of this process is a spreading effect: interference in a broad region of the animal is observed ...

Abstract B32: Inhibiting DNA methylation causes an interferon response in cancer via dsRNA including endogenous retroviruses

, 2016
DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTis) upregulate immune attraction, including the interferon response, in solid tumors. We now define viral defense signaling as one mechanism for this.

A dsRNA detector in the immune toolkit [PDF]

open access: possibleScience, 2021
Innate Immunity Nod-like receptor (NLR) proteins recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns within cells, which triggers the formation of signaling complexes called inflammasomes. These complexes then initiate pyroptosis, a highly inflammatory form of cell death.

Murine immunosuppression with mycoviral dsRNA

Immunopharmacology, 1982
The effect of three different size molecular weight species of mycoviral dsRNA on the immune response to sRBC was tested in C57Bl/6 mice. The various dsRNA species were extracted from electrophoresis polyacrylamide-agarose slab gels. Their molecular weights ranged from 1.0 x 10(6) daltons to 3.5 x 10(6) daltons.

The dsRNA viruses

Virus Research, 2004
The dsRNA viruses represent a large, diverse group of pathogens (affecting a very wide range of host species), several of which are of medical, veterinary or agricultural importance. Many of the icosahedral dsRNA viruses show striking structural and functional similarities that reflect the similar problems that they face replicating their dsRNA genomes

A polymer/detergent formulation improves dsRNA penetration through the body wall and RNAi-induced mortality in the soybean aphid Aphis glycines.

Pest Management Science, 2019
BACKGROUND It is difficult to efficiently silence gene expression in some insects, probably because of the degradation of dsRNA by enzymes present in the gut and hemolymph post-oral feeding or body injecting of dsRNA.

Mechanism of the Antiretroviral Effect of dsRNA

1994
The development of AIDS seems to be linked to an impairment of processes which are induced or activated by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), such as the biosynthesis of interferon (IFN), production of 2′,5′-oligoadenylate (2-5A), ribonuclease L (RNase L) activity and different cell-mediated immune functions. A restriction of available bioactive dsRNA (or of
