Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

ROLE OF AUTO- AND HETEROLOGOUS RIBONUCLEASE III FAMILY ENZYMES IN THE RESISTANCE TO PATHOGENS AND REGULATION OF GENE EXPRESSION IN HIGHER PLANTS

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2015
The current view on the biological role of ribonuclease III family plant enzymes (Dicer-like dsRNAses) is considered. Emphasis is placed on their role in molecular mechanisms conferring resistance to pathogens.

Expression, purification and properties of recombinant E. coli ribonuclease III [PDF]

open access: yesIUBMB Life, 1996
AbstractCloned RNase III gene in a T7 RNA polymerase promoter system was expressed in Escherichia coli cells lacking endogenous RNase III, and the over‐expressed recombinant RNase III was purified to homogeneity using ion exchange, exclusion and affinity column chromatography. The overexpressed RNase III was found to separate with the membrane fraction

Interferon beta drives therapy resistance in a patient‐derived model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Interferon type 1 (IFN‐1) production and signaling is associated with the acquisition of therapy resistance, following chronic DNA damage, via Interferon‐related DNA damage resistance signature (IRDS) gene expression. An alternative, DNA damage‐independent role of sustained IFN‐1 mediated resistance was identified and characterized by the emergence of ...

Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

Highly multiplexed genome engineering using CRISPR/Cas9 gRNA arrays. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The CRISPR/Cas9 system is an RNA guided nuclease system that evolved as a mechanism of adaptive immunity in bacteria. This system has been adopted for numerous genome engineering applications in research and recently, therapeutics. The CRISPR/Cas9 system

Small RNA pathways in mammalian oocytes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Three distinct small RNA pathways operate in mammalian oocytes: RNAi interference (RNAi), the microRNA (miRNA) pathway, and the PIWI‐associated RNA (piRNA) pathway. These pathways use small RNAs to guide sequence‐specific repression and contribute to oocyte biology by targeting genes and mobile elements or appear insignificant since different ...

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

DICER1: The Argonaute Endonuclease Family Member and Its Role in Pediatric and Youth Pathology

open access: yesBiology
In 2001, two enzyme-encoding genes were recognized in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. The genetic material, labeled Dicer-1 and Dicer-2, encodes ribonuclease-type enzymes with slightly diverse target substrates. The human orthologue is DICER1.

Molecular mechanism of allosteric activation of the CRISPR ribonuclease Csm6 by cyclic tetra-adenylate

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2023
Type III CRISPR systems are innate immune systems found in bacteria and archaea, which produce cyclic oligoadenylate (cOA) second messengers in response to viral infections. In these systems, Csm6 proteins serve as ancillary nucleases that degrade single-
