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.

Overview of MicroRNA Biogenesis, Mechanisms of Actions, and Circulation
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that play important roles in regulating gene expression. The majority of miRNAs are transcribed from DNA sequences into primary miRNAs and processed into precursor miRNAs, and finally mature miRNAs.

ALOX5 deficiency contributes to bladder cancer progression by mediating ferroptosis escape
Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death driven by the lethal lipid peroxides. Previous studies have demonstrated that inducing ferroptosis holds great potential in cancer therapy, especially for patients with traditional therapy ...

The Warburg effect is a metabolic hallmark of cancer. Tumor cells rapidly adjust their energy source to glycolysis in order to efficiently proliferate in a hypoxic environment, but the mechanism underlying this switch remains incompletely understood ...

Predicting MicroRNA Mediated Gene Regulation between Human and Viruses
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) mediate various biological processes by actively fine-tuning gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. With the identification of numerous human and viral miRNAs, growing evidence has indicated a common role of miRNAs in ...

Identifying mRNA targets of microRNA dysregulated in cancer: with application to clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
BACKGROUND. MicroRNA regulate mRNA levels in a tissue specific way, either by inducing degradation of the transcript or by inhibiting translation or transcription.

Exosomes, vesicles secreted by cancer cells, have a role in cancer progression but the mechanisms regulating their biogenesis are mostly unknown. Here the authors show that PKM2, a rate-limiting glycolytic enzyme overexpressed in cancer cells, mediates ...

miR-181b functions as an oncomiR in colorectal cancer by targeting PDCD4
Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a RNA-binding protein that acts as a tumor suppressor in many cancer types, including colorectal cancer (CRC). During CRC carcinogenesis, PDCD4 protein levels remarkably decrease, but the underlying molecular mechanism ...
