Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2022 Background Anti-inflammatory polarized macrophages are reported to alleviate systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Our previous studies have demonstrated that exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells promote the anti-inflammatory polarization of ...

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2018 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogenous RNAs that regulate gene-expression posttranscriptionally. MiRNA research in allergy is expanding because miRNAs are crucial regulators of gene expression and promising candidates for biomarker development.

MicroRNA: MicroRNAs Reach out into Dendrites [PDF]
Current Biology, 2006 A recent study has shown that miR-134, a brain-specific microRNA, is present in dendrites where it represses the local synthesis of the protein kinase LimK1; this is a novel form of translational regulation in dendrites and may have important physiological implications.

In vivo self-assembled siRNA as a modality for combination therapy of ulcerative colitis
Nature Communications, 2022 Management of ulcerative colitis can require a combination of treatments targeting different pathways. Here the authors design a therapy for ulcerative colitis based on a multitargeted genetic circuit to simultaneously target TNF-α, B7-1 and integrin α4,

MicroRNA or Not MicroRNA? [PDF]
, 2011 The avalanche of next generation sequencing data has led to a rapid increase of annotated microRNAs in the last few years. Many of them are specific to individual species or rather narrow clades. A closer inspection of the current version of miRBase shows that dozens of entries conflict with other ncRNAs, in particular snoRNAs.With few exceptions ...

MicroRNAs in Neurotoxicity [PDF]
Journal of Toxicology, 2012 MicroRNAs are gaining importance as regulators of gene expression with the capability to fine-tune and modulate cellular events. The complex network with their selective targets (mRNAs/genes) pave way for regulation of many physiological processes.

MicroRNAs in Development [PDF]
TSW Development & Embryology, 2006 Over 10 years ago, the lab of Victor Ambros cloned an unusual gene,lin-4, which encodes two small RNA transcripts[1]. In the past few years, hundreds more of these tiny transcripts, termed microRNAs (miRNAs), have been uncovered in over a dozen species.

Modulation of microRNA Activity by Semi-microRNAs [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2012 The ribonuclease Dicer plays a central role in the microRNA pathway by catalyzing the formation of 19-24-nucleotide (nt) long microRNAs. Subsequently incorporated into Argonaute 2 (Ago2) effector complexes, microRNAs are known to regulate messenger RNA (mRNA) translation.

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2015 Epidemiologic studies have revealed that modification of the levels of individual components of the hemostatic system may have effects on the development of thrombosis or hemorrhage. To maintain the necessary equilibrium, the hemostatic system is finely regulated.
