Viral infection and neurological disorders—potential role of extracellular nucleotides in neuroinflammation

open access: yesExRNA, 2019
Neuroinflammation can be induced under several conditions including pathogen infection such as virus. As the main immune cells in brain, microglia activation plays a pivotal role in neuroinflammation by responding to the invading pathogens (viral DNA/RNA)

Characterization of an Aplysia vasotocin signaling system and actions of posttranslational modifications and individual residues of the ligand on receptor activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
The vasopressin/oxytocin signaling system is present in both protostomes and deuterostomes and plays various physiological roles. Although there were reports for both vasopressin-like peptides and receptors in mollusc Lymnaea and Octopus, no precursor or

Metazoan MicroRNAs [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ∼22 nt RNAs that direct posttranscriptional repression of mRNA targets in diverse eukaryotic lineages. In humans and other mammals, these small RNAs help sculpt the expression of most mRNAs. This article reviews advances in our understanding of the defining features of metazoan miRNAs and their biogenesis, genomics, and evolution.

Human cytomegalovirus-encoded microRNAs expression profile in plasma of patients with aortic dissection

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Background Aortic dissection (AD) is a rare disease with high mortality for which no effective diagnostic biomarkers are available. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is an important cause of the occurrence and progression of many diseases, but the ...

miRNAs as Regulators of Antidiabetic Effects of Fucoidans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
open access articleDiabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease with a high mortality rate worldwide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), and other small noncoding RNAs, serve as endogenous gene regulators through binding to specific sequences in RNA and modifying gene ...

Bridging the gap: Multi‐stakeholder perspectives of molecular diagnostics in oncology

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Although molecular diagnostics is transforming cancer care, implementing novel technologies remains challenging. This study identifies unmet needs and technology requirements through a two‐step stakeholder involvement. Liquid biopsies for monitoring applications and predictive biomarker testing emerge as key unmet needs. Technology requirements vary by

Profound effect of profiling platform and normalization strategy on detection of differentially expressed microRNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Adequate normalization minimizes the effects of systematic technical variations and is a prerequisite for getting meaningful biological changes. However, there is inconsistency about miRNA normalization performances and recommendations.

Modulation of microRNA Activity by Semi-microRNAs [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Adenosine‐to‐inosine editing of miR‐200b‐3p is associated with the progression of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A‐to‐I editing of miRNAs, particularly miR‐200b‐3p, contributes to HGSOC progression by enhancing cancer cell proliferation, migration and 3D growth. The edited form is linked to poorer patient survival and the identification of novel molecular targets.
