A study by researchers at the D’Or Institute for Research and Education in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, suggests that blocking the microRNA known as miR-21 may significantly slow the growth and spread of ...

PHILADELPHIA -- Researchers long thought that only one strand of a double-stranded microRNA can silence genes. Though recent evidence has challenged that dogma, it's unclear what the other strand does ...

Researchers have found that levels of methylated microRNA were significantly higher in tissue and serum from cancer patients compared with that from normal controls. Specifically, methylation levels ...

Scientists have shown that small RNA molecules occurring naturally in cells, i.e. microRNAs, are also abundant in cell nuclei. Previously, microRNAs were mainly thought to be found in cytoplasm. The ...

Comparative effectiveness of treatment strategies for urothelial cancer of the bladder (UCB) with clinical lymph node involvement (cN+). Anti-tumor activity, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of AGS15E ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their groundbreaking discovery of microRNA and its pivotal role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

Nibbler (Nbr) is a 3′-to-5′ exoribonuclease whose catalytic 3′-end trimming activity impacts microRNA (miRNA) and PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA) biogenesis. Here, we report on structural and functional ...

Dr. Yogesh Dwivedi authored a book chapter “microRNA Function and Dysregulation in Depression and Suicide” in Suicide Phenomenology and Neurobiology, Edited by: Keri Cannon and Thomas Hudzik.

Levels of molecules associated with genetic function, such as microRNA, can be an important indicator of abnormal activity associated with cancer. However, little is known about how different ...
