Small RNA signatures of the anterior cruciate ligament from patients with knee joint osteoarthritis
Introduction: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is susceptible to degeneration, resulting in joint pain, reduced mobility, and osteoarthritis development.

On the nucleolar size and density in human early granulocytic progenitors, myeloblasts
Human myeloblasts were studied in bone marrow of patients suffering from chronic phase of chronic myeloid leukaemia to provide more information on the nucleolar diameter in these early granulocytic progenitors. These cells are a convenient model for such

Glutamine deficiency in solid tumor cells confers resistance to ribosomal RNA synthesis inhibitors
Small molecules that target RNA Polymerase I inhibit ribosome biogenesis to activate p53 through the nucleolar surveillance response pathway. Here, the authors show that p53 induction by ribosome stress is dependent on extracellular glutamine ...

Ribosomal RNA: Small nucleolar RNAs make their mark [PDF]
Small nucleolar RNAs direct the location of certain methylations in ribosomal RNA by direct base pairing; although evolutionarily conserved, the physiological significance of these modifications remains unclear.

Jouvence a small nucleolar RNA required in the gut extends lifespan in Drosophila
Small non-coding RNAs contribute to the regulation of aging. Here the authors identify a small nucleolar RNA, the snoRNA jouvence, which extends the lifespan of fruit flies through its function in the gut, and is conserved in humans.

Small Nucleolar RNAs: Insight Into Their Function in Cancer [PDF]
Small nucleolar RNAs (SnoRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs divided into two classes: C/D box snoRNAs and H/ACA box snoRNAs. The canonical function of C/D box and H/ACA box snoRNAs are 2'-O-ribose methylation and pseudouridylation of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), respectively.

Human snoRNA-93 is processed into a microRNA-like RNA that promotes breast cancer cell invasion
RNA: Small nucleolar-derived RNA contributes to tumor invasiveness A short microRNA-like fragment excised from a small nucleolar RNA (called a snoRNA-derived RNA or sdRNA) contributes to the invasiveness of breast cancer cells.

Non-coding RNA biogenesis in higher eukaryotes has not been fully characterized. Here, we studied the Drosophila melanogaster Rexo5 (CG8368) protein, a metazoan-specific member of the DEDDh 3′-5′ single-stranded RNA exonucleases, by genetic, biochemical,

Functional diversity of small nucleolar RNAs
AbstractSmall nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are short non-protein-coding RNAs with a long-recognized role in tuning ribosomal and spliceosomal function by guiding ribose methylation and pseudouridylation at targeted nucleotide residues of ribosomal and small nuclear RNAs, respectively.
