Molecular mechanisms influencing efficiency of RNA interference in insects.

open access: yesPest Management Science, 2018
RNA interference (RNAi) is an endogenous, sequence-specific gene-silencing mechanism elicited by small RNA molecules. RNAi is a powerful reverse genetic tool, and is currently being utilized for managing insects and viruses.

Modeling recursive RNA interference. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

miR-142: A Master Regulator in Hematological Malignancies and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesCells, 2023
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a type of non-coding RNA whose dysregulation is frequently associated with the onset and progression of human cancers. miR-142, an ultra-conserved miRNA with both active -3p and -5p mature strands and wide-ranging physiological ...

Evidence For Long-Lasting Transgenerational Antiviral Immunity in Insects

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Transgenerational immune priming (TGIP) allows memory-like immune responses to be transmitted from parents to offspring in many invertebrates.

microRNA Therapeutics in Cancer — An Emerging Concept

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an evolutionarily conserved class of small, regulatory non-coding RNAs that negatively regulate protein coding gene and other non-coding transcripts expression.

Unzipping and binding of small interfering RNA with single walled Carbon Nanotube: a platform for small interfering RNA delivery [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Chem. Phys. 136, 065106 (2012), 2012
In an effort to design efficient platform for siRNA delivery, we combine all atom classical and quantum simulations to study the binding of small interfering RNA (siRNA) by pristine single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT). Our results show that siRNA strongly binds to SWCNT surface via unzipping its base-pairs and the propensity of unzipping increases with

Mal de Río Cuarto Virus Infection Triggers the Production of Distinctive Viral-Derived siRNA Profiles in Wheat and Its Planthopper Vector

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Plant reoviruses are able to multiply in gramineae plants and delphacid vectors encountering different defense strategies with unique features. This study aims to comparatively assess alterations of small RNA (sRNA) populations in both hosts upon virus ...

Slicing and dicing viruses: antiviral RNA interference in mammals

open access: yesEMBO Journal, 2019
To protect against the harmful consequences of viral infections, organisms are equipped with sophisticated antiviral mechanisms, including cell‐intrinsic means to restrict viral replication and propagation. Plant and invertebrate cells utilise mostly RNA

P granules protect RNA interference genes from silencing by piRNAs

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
P granules are perinuclear condensates in C. elegans germ cells proposed to serve as hubs for self/non-self RNA discrimination by Argonautes. We report that a mutant (meg-3 meg-4) that does not assemble P granules in primordial germ cells loses ...

A Bayesian measurement error model for two-channel cell-based RNAi data with replicates [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2012, Vol. 6, No. 1, 356-382, 2012
RNA interference (RNAi) is an endogenous cellular process in which small double-stranded RNAs lead to the destruction of mRNAs with complementary nucleoside sequence. With the production of RNAi libraries, large-scale RNAi screening in human cells can be conducted to identify unknown genes involved in a biological pathway.
