RNA Silencing in the Management of Dyslipidemias [PDF]
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2021 Abstract Purpose of Review Remarkable reductions in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality have been achieved in recent decades through the widespread use of ‘small-molecule’ hypolipidaemic drugs such as statins and ezetimibe. An alternative approach is to perturb the production of proteins through ribonucleic acid (RNA)

RNA interference-mediated co-transcriptional gene silencing in fission yeast [PDF]
, 2012 In the last decade or so, RNA interference (RNAi) has gained unanticipated recognition in the fields of RNA biology and gene regulation. It exists in a wide variety of eukaryotic organisms, and various forms of RNAi are involved in diverse biological ...

RNA-Mediated Gene Silencing Signals Are Not Graft Transmissible from the Rootstock to the Scion in Greenhouse-Grown Apple Plants Malus sp. [PDF]
, 2012 RNA silencing describes the sequence specific degradation of RNA targets. Silencing is a non-cell autonomous event that is graft transmissible in different plant species.

Novel endoribonucleases as central players in various pathways of eukaryotic RNA metabolism [PDF]
, 2010 For a long time it has been assumed that the decay of RNA in eukaryotes is mainly carried out by exoribonucleases, which is in contrast to bacteria, where endoribonucleases are well documented to initiate RNA degradation.

Generation of Arabidopsis early flowering plants by destruction of CLF transcripts via RNA silencing [PDF]
مجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2014 The control of flowering time requires activation of a cascade of successive genes which are affected by several internal and external factors. Some of these genes, such as Curly Leaf (CLF), have inhibitory effect on flowering.

Secondary siRNAs in Plants: Biosynthesis, Various Functions, and Applications in Virology
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 The major components of RNA silencing include both transitive and systemic small RNAs, which are technically called secondary sRNAs. Double-stranded RNAs trigger systemic silencing pathways to negatively regulate gene expression.

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]
, 2015 RNAi interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved regulatory mechanism employed by almost all Eukaryotes. With RNAi organisms can modulate the expression of endogenous genes and protect the integrity and identity of their genomes.

Next generation sequencing for studying viruses and RNA silencing-based antiviral defense in crop plants [PDF]
, 2014 The main objectives of this work have been to use next generation sequencing (NGS) and develop bioinformatics tools for plant virus diagnostics and genome reconstruction as well as for investigation of RNA silencing-based antiviral defense.
