Red blood cells could protect miRNAs from degradation or loss thanks to Argonaute 2 binding
The present work investigates the presence and the stability of miRNAs into RBCs, both native and engineered. The observed stability is due to the Ago2 bound resulting in minimal RISC. Indeed, if the miRNA‐Ago2 complex is present, miRNAs are protected from release or degradation and they are biologically active. Thus, RBCs can act as miRNA carriers for

Unraveling the Interplay Between Metabolism and Neurodevelopment in Health and Disease
Neurodevelopment is orchestrated by precise metabolic regulation. Key metabolic processes—glucose, lipid, and amino acid metabolism—drive cell proliferation, differentiation, synaptogenesis, and neurotransmitter synthesis. These are tightly integrated with signaling pathways like mTOR, AMPK, and insulin/IGF that regulate neuronal growth and synaptic ...

A creatine efflux transporter in oligodendrocytes
Creatine deficiency leads to severe neurodevelopmental disorders. In the brain, creatine is synthesized by oligodendrocytes to supply neighboring neurons. While SLC6A8 mediates neuronal uptake, the creatine release mechanism was unclear. Our results establish SLC22A15 as a key creatine efflux transporter.

Mechanisms of Homoarginine: Looking Beyond Clinical Outcomes
Abstract Purpose Homoarginine (hArg) is an arginine metabolite that has been known for years, but its physiological role in the body remains poorly understood. For instance, it is well known that high hArg concentrations in the blood are protective against several disease states, yet the mechanisms behind these health benefits are unclear.
