Diverging affinity of tospovirus RNA silencing suppressor proteins, NSs, for various RNA duplex molecules [PDF]

, 2010
The tospovirus NSs protein was previously shown to suppress the antiviral RNA silencing mechanism in plants. Here the biochemical analysis of NSs proteins from different tospoviruses, using purified NSs or NSs containing cell extracts, is described.

Virus-derived DNA drives mosquito vector tolerance to arboviral infection

Nature Communications, 2016
Mosquitoes tolerate long-lasting viral infections, which makes them efficient vectors for human viral diseases. Here, the authors show that the tolerance of Aedesmosquitoes to infection with dengue or chikungunya viruses depends on the production of ...

Role of RNA Interference (RNAi) in the Moss Physcomitrella patens [PDF]

, 2013
RNA interference (RNAi) is a mechanism that regulates genes by either transcriptional (TGS) or posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS), required for genome maintenance and proper development of an organism.

Exosomal miRNA confers chemo resistance via targeting Cav1/p-gp/M2-type macrophage axis in ovarian cancerResearch in context

EBioMedicine, 2018
Background: Circulating miRNAs are known to play important roles in intercellular communication. However, the effects of exosomal miRNAs on cells are not fully understood.

Chromosome-wide analysis of gene function by RNA interference in the african trypanosome. [PDF]

, 2006
Trypanosomatids of the order Kinetoplastida are major contributors to global disease and morbidity, and understanding their basic biology coupled with the development of new drug targets represents a critical need.

PTGER3 induces ovary tumorigenesis and confers resistance to cisplatin therapy through up-regulation Ras-MAPK/Erk-ETS1-ELK1/CFTR1 axisResearch in context

EBioMedicine, 2019
Background: Inflammatory mediator prostaglandin E2–prostaglandin E2 receptor EP3 (PTGER3) signaling is critical for tumor-associated angiogenesis, tumor growth, and chemoresistance. However, the mechanism underlying these effects in ovarian cancer is not

RNA Interference for Viral Infections [PDF]

Current Drug Targets, 2012
The treatment of viral infections has relied on pre-emptive vaccination or use of a limited range of anti-viral drugs. However, the majority of viruses have no available drugs and treatment is merely supportive. RNA interference (RNAi) offers the ability to directly and rapidly treat virus infections via the targeting of viral genes.

RNA interference in marine and freshwater sponges [PDF]

, 2011
Background: The marine sponge Tethya wilhelma and the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri are emerging model organisms to study evolution, gene regulation, development, and physiology in non-bilaterian animal systems. Thus far, functional methods (i.e.,

A genome‐scale screen reveals context‐dependent ovarian cancer sensitivity to miRNA overexpression

Molecular Systems Biology, 2015
Large‐scale molecular annotation of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) indicates remarkable heterogeneity in the etiology of that disease. This diversity presents a significant obstacle against intervention target discovery.
