Rotavirus infection induces transient pancreatic involution and hyperglycemia in weanling mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Rotavirus is a ubiquitous double-stranded RNA virus responsible for most cases of infantile gastroenteritis. It infects pancreatic islets in vitro and is implicated as a trigger of autoimmune destruction of islet beta cells leading to type 1 diabetes ...

A phagocytic route for uptake of double-stranded RNA in RNAi. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
RNA interference (RNAi) has a range of physiological functions including as a defence mechanism against viruses. To protect uninfected cells in a multicellular organism, not only a cell-autonomous RNAi response is required but also a systemic one ...

Sensitivity and specificity of anti-double-stranded RNA immunofluorescence for universal detection of viral infection in respiratory specimens

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Background: Emerging viruses could be detected before reaching pandemic level if universal viral detection screening was routinely used. Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is the only common antigen across most viral families.

A model for the force stretching double-stranded chain molecules

open access: yes, 2002
We modify and extend the recently developed statistical mechanical model for predicting the thermodynamic properties of chain molecules having noncovalent double-stranded conformations, as in RNA or ssDNA, and $\beta-$sheets in protein, by including the ...

Evidence that avian reovirus σNS is an RNA chaperone: implications for genome segment assortment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Reoviruses are important human, animal and plant pathogens having 10-12 segments of double-stranded genomic RNA. The mechanisms controlling the assortment and packaging of genomic segments in these viruses, remain poorly understood.

Site-specific RNase A activity was dramatically reduced in serum from multiple types of cancer patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Potent RNase activities were found in the serum of mammals but the physiological function of the RNases was never well illustrated, largely due to the caveats in methods of RNase activity measurement.

Two Classes of Silencing RNAs Move between Caenorhabditis elegans Tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Organism-wide RNA interference (RNAi) is due to the transport of mobile silencing RNA throughout the organism, but the identities of these mobile RNA species in animals are unknown. Here, we present genetic evidence that both the initial double-stranded

Why double-stranded RNA resists condensation [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2014
The addition of small amounts of multivalent cations to solutions containing double-stranded DNA leads to inter-DNA attraction and eventual condensation. Surprisingly, the condensation is suppressed in double-stranded RNA, which carries the same negative charge as DNA, but assumes a different double helical form.

High-Pressure-Sprayed Double Stranded RNA Does Not Induce RNA Interference of a Reporter Gene

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In plants, RNA interference (RNAi) is an effective defense mechanism against pathogens and pests. RNAi mainly involves the micro RNA and the small interfering RNA (siRNA) pathways.
