Small RNAs and extracellular vesicles in filarial nematodes: from nematode development to diagnostics [PDF]
Parasitic nematodes have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to communicate with their hosts in order to survive and successfully establish an infection. The transfer of RNA within extracellular vesicles (EVs) has recently been described as a mechanism that

Characterization of Circulating Transfer RNA-Derived RNA Fragments in Cattle
The objective was to characterize naturally occurring circulating transfer RNA-derived RNA Fragments (tRFs) in cattle. Serum from eight clinically normal adult dairy cows was collected, and small non-coding RNAs were extracted immediately after ...

Transfer RNA-derived small RNA: an emerging small non-coding RNA with key roles in cancer
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) promote protein translation by binding to the corresponding amino acids and transporting them to the ribosome, which is essential in protein translation.

Multiple effects of silymarin on the hepatitis C virus lifecycle [PDF]
Silymarin, an extract from milk thistle (Silybum marianum), and its purified flavonolignans have been recently shown to inhibit hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, both in vitro and in vivo.

ER Membrane Contact Sites: Key Platforms for Biogenesis of RNA-Containing Extracellular Vesicles
The mechanisms by which cytoplasmic cargoes such as RNAs are incorporated into extracellular vesicles (EVs) are poorly understood. In a recent article published in Developmental Cell, we describe a novel function of endoplasmic reticulum membrane contact

Nanodelivery of a functional membrane receptor to manipulate cellular phenotype. [PDF]
Modification of membrane receptor makeup is one of the most efficient ways to control input-output signals but is usually achieved by expressing DNA or RNA-encoded proteins or by using other genome-editing methods, which can be technically challenging ...

Highly Sensitive Northern Hybridization Using a Rapid Protocol for Downward Alkaline Blotting of RNA
A simple and fast RNA gel blot procedureis described that uses 50 mM NaOH tosimultaneously transfer and fix RNA to apositively charged nylon membrane. TheRNA is transferred in a downward direction,and transfer is routinely completedwithin 2.5 h.
