circRNA, circular RNA; dsRNA, double-stranded RNA; lncRNA, long non-coding RNA; mRNA, messenger RNA; miRNA, microRNA; ncRNA, non-coding RNA; pre-miRNA, precursor ...
We identified twelve novel saliva and serum miRNAs and a panel of unique miRNA and mRNA signatures, significantly differentially expressed in saliva and serum of OSCC patients versus HC ...
The study shows that a long non-coding RNA called CISTR-ACT acts as a master regulator of cell size, influencing how large or small cells grow across multiple tissues.
What are Micro-RNAs (miRNAs)? Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, non-coding RNA molecules that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. These tiny ...
The study's main contributors include (L-R) graduate student Joshua Shaffer, professor Upasna Sharma, and postdoc Alka Gupta. (Photo by Carolyn Lagattuta) The pioneering research of UC Santa Cruz’s ...
A father’s plastic exposure could significantly induce metabolic disorders like diabetes in offspring. Limiting the plastic ...
Scientists have discovered that some tiny segments of RNA thought to be junk instead have a functional role in suppressing production of certain messenger RNAs and appear to help cells respond to ...
A study led by biomedical scientists at the University of California, Riverside, has shown for the first time that a father’s ...
What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...
These genes are part of the non-coding genome, which makes up about 98% of our DNA and was long dismissed as “junk.” This new ...
