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 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 ...

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.

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.

MicroRNA-Based Diagnosis and Therapy
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of endogenous non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression. Alteration in miRNA expression results in changes in the profile of genes involving a range of biological processes, contributing to numerous human disorders ...

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.

Predicting effective microRNA target sites in mammalian mRNAs
eLife, 2015 MicroRNA targets are often recognized through pairing between the miRNA seed region and complementary sites within target mRNAs, but not all of these canonical sites are equally effective, and both computational and in vivo UV-crosslinking approaches ...

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.

miRBase: from microRNA sequences to function
Nucleic Acids Res., 2018 miRBase catalogs, names and distributes microRNA gene sequences. The latest release of miRBase (v22) contains microRNA sequences from 271 organisms: 38 589 hairpin precursors and 48 860 mature microRNAs.
