Modeling recursive RNA interference. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2008 An important application of the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway is its use as a small RNA-based regulatory system commonly exploited to suppress expression of target genes to test their function in vivo.

The RNA interference revolution [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2005 The discovery of double-stranded RNA-mediated gene silencing has rapidly led to its use as a method of choice for blocking a gene, and has turned it into one of the most discussed topics in cell biology.

RNA Interference Applied to Crustacean Aquaculture [PDF]
BiomoleculesRNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool that can be used to specifically knock-down gene expression using double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) effector molecules. This approach can be used in aquaculture as an investigation instrument and to improve the immune

Conditional RNA interference in mammalian cells via RNA transactivation [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsRNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool for sequence-specific gene knockdown in therapeutic and research applications. However, spatiotemporal control of RNAi is required to decrease nonspecific targeting, potential toxicity, and allow targeting of ...

Branched RNA: A New Architecture for RNA Interference [PDF]
Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2011 Branched RNAs with two and four strands were synthesized. These structures were used to obtain branched siRNA. The branched siRNA duplexes had similar inhibitory capacity as those of unmodified siRNA duplexes, as deduced from gene silencing experiments ...

Transfer RNA and Origins of RNA Interference [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Almost 30 years ago the first microRNA (miRNA) was detected (Lee et al., 1993), later put in mechanistical context by the discovery of the RNA interference (RNAi) and RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). miRNA is the variable RISC element (guide) that recognizes messenger RNA (mRNA) targets in the RNAi process facilitated by Argonaute (Ago) proteins ...

Multifaceted contributions of Dicer2 to arbovirus transmission by Aedes aegypti
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are an increasing threat to global health. The small interfering RNA (siRNA) pathway is considered the main antiviral immune pathway of insects, but its effective ...

Combined VEGFR and MAPK pathway inhibition in angiosarcoma
Scientific Reports, 2021 Angiosarcoma is an aggressive malignancy of endothelial cells that carries a high mortality rate. Cytotoxic chemotherapy can elicit clinical responses, but the duration of response is limited.
