miR-200c-driven Mesenchymal-To-Epithelial Transition is a Therapeutic Target in Uterine Carcinosarcomas

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Uterine carcinosarcomas (UCSs) are highly aggressive malignancies associated with poor prognoses and limited treatment options. These tumors are hypothesized to develop from the endometrial adenocarcinoma (EAC) through epithelial-mesenchymal transition ...

The RNA interference revolution

open access: yesBrazilian 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.

Role of tissue-factor bearing extracellular vesicles released from ovarian cancer cells in platelet aggregation in vitro and venous thrombosis in mice

open access: yesThrombosis Update, 2021
Objective: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) contributes to morbidity and mortality in women with ovarian cancer. Underlying mechanisms of venous thrombosis in ovarian cancer are not well-understood. The aim of this study was to identify the potential role of

Structure-based inhibitor screening of natural products against NSP15 of SARS- CoV-2 revealed Thymopentin and Oleuropein as potent inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Coronaviruses are enveloped, non-segmented positive-sense RNA viruses that have the largest genome among RNA viruses. The genome contains a large replicase ORF encodes nonstructural proteins (NSPs), structural and accessory genes. NSP15 is a nidoviral RNA uridylate-specific endoribonuclease (NendoU) has C-terminal catalytic domain. The endoribonuclease

RNA Interference (RNAi)-Based Therapeutics: Delivering on the Promise?

open access: yesAnnual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2016
A resurgence in clinical trials using RNA interference (RNAi) occurred in 2012. Although there were initial difficulties in achieving efficacious results with RNAi without toxic side effects, advances in delivery and improved chemistry made this ...

RNA Interference-Induced Innate Immunity, Off-Target Effect, or Immune Adjuvant?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
RNA interference (RNAi) is a natural cellular mechanism that inhibits gene expression in a sequence-specific manner. In the last decade, RNAi has become a cornerstone in basic biological systems research and drug development efforts.

Metabolic shifts toward glutamine regulate tumor growth, invasion and bioenergetics in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2014
Glutamine can play a critical role in cellular growth in multiple cancers. Glutamine‐addicted cancer cells are dependent on glutamine for viability, and their metabolism is reprogrammed for glutamine utilization through the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.

Mixed molecular motor traffic on nucleic acid tracks: models of transcriptional interference and regulation of gene expression [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
RNA polymerase (RNAP) is molecular machine that polymerizes a RNA molecule, a linear heteropolymer, using a single stranded DNA (ssDNA) as the corresponding template; the sequence of monomers of the RNA is dictated by that of monomers on the ssDNA template.
