An overview of microRNAs [PDF]
The discovery of the first microRNA (miRNA) over 20 years ago has ushered in a new era in molecular biology. There are now over 2000 miRNAs that have been discovered in humans and it is believed that they collectively regulate one third of the genes in the genome.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that typically inhibit the translation and stability of messenger RNAs (mRNAs), controlling genes involved in cellular processes such as inflammation, cell-cycle regulation, stress response, differentiation, apoptosis, and migration.

Oxaliplatin resistance is a major challenge in the clinical treatment for advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in tumorigenesis and progression as critical regulators, while their potential roles in ...

ABSTRACTmicroRNAs are small non‐coding RNAs that in the last decade have emerged as overarching regulators of gene expression. Their abundance, ability to repress a large number of target genes and overlapping target specificity indicate a complex network of interactions that is still being defined.

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

This study reports the upregulation of ELMO1 and GPR141 in human Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) corneal endothelium and ultraviolet A‐induced FECD mice model. A genetic association of an intergenic single nucleotide polymorphism rs918980 present between both genes is observed with FECD in the Indian population.

CAMIRADA: Cancer microRNA association discovery algorithm, a case study on breast cancer [PDF]
In recent studies, non-coding protein RNAs have been identified as microRNA that can be used as biomarkers for early diagnosis and treatment of cancer, that decrease mortality in cancer. A microRNA may target hundreds or thousands of genes and a gene may regulate several microRNAs, so determining which microRNA is associated with which cancer is a big ...

Possible role of human ribonuclease dicer in the regulation of R loops
R loops play an important role in regulating key cellular processes such as replication, transcription, centromere stabilization, or control of telomere length. However, the unscheduled accumulation of R loops can cause many diseases, including cancer, and neurodegenerative or inflammatory disorders. Interestingly, accumulating data indicate a possible

We found that microRNA‐196b‐5p was significantly upregulated in precancerous lesions and that combining it with other microRNAs increased the accuracy of detection. Since endoscopy is associated with risk, the identification of high‐risk groups for gastric cancer is expected to make it possible to clearly identify groups that should undergo endoscopy ...
