(2015-11-18)MicroRNAs are short regulatory RNAs that primarily operate at the posttranscriptional level, acting as part of the RISC complex to destabilize mRNA prior to, or during, translation. MicroRNAs are subject to several levels ...
-
(2009-05-15)MicroRNAs are a large family of 21-26 nucleotide non-coding RNAs with a role in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. In recent years, microRNAs have been proposed to play a significant role in the expansion ...

(2014-12-12)Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a devastating tumor characterized by late presentation of symptoms with limited treatment options. Disruption of circadian rhythm is associated with cancer development and progression. MicroRNAs ...
-
Foods play an essential role in the management of disease; it is becoming increasingly common for individuals to turn to foods as a form of therapy or even prevention of progressive conditions, such as cancer. The biochemical ...

(2013-12-11)This study examined the effects of exercise and diet-induced weight loss on markers of inflammation in obese females. Forty-nine obese women (age 48.2±10.5 years, height 63.5±2.7cm; weight 203.3±30.5 kg; BMI 35.6±5.6 ...

(2022-04-11)The gut microbiota has been recognized for influencing human health and immune homeostasis, with metabolites being a biochemical mediator of these functions. The immune-modulatory effects of microbially-derived tryptophan ...
-
(2022-12-12)The Drosophila melanogaster post-mating response (PMR) is a well-characterized suite of changes that occur after mating, accompanied by a flux in gene expression. Given the significant male contribution to the PMR, as well ...
-
(2013-02-04)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that act as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression in eukaryotic genomes and are thought to be critically involved in many biological processes. While the functions ...
-
(2015-12-15)When animals are exposed to new conditions they need to tune the expression of hundreds of genes in specific tissues and at a specific time requires the interplay of multiple processes. Females are required to locate ...
-
(2021-01-12)Prenatal Alcohol exposure (PAE), like other pregnancy complications, can result in placental insufficiency and fetal growth restriction, though the linking causal mechanisms are unclear. We previously identified 11 ...
-
(2017-12-14)High-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity is a risk factor contributing to cardiovascular disease. Excessive accumulation of fatty acids in the heart can cause cardiac dysfunction and heart failure and is referred to as lipotoxic ...
-
(2022-12-06)Gene expression is regulated by a vast network of non-coding RNAs. In the past decades, many methods have been developed for measuring non-coding RNAs, especially microRNAs, in vitro and in vivo. In particular, DNA strand ...
-
(2012-10-19)The overall objective of this work was to increase the knowledge regarding American hybrid grapes and wine-making techniques relevant to the State of Texas, specifically to investigate grape chemistry of hybrid grapes, to ...
-
(2011-11-05)Numerous factors/gene products, including S100A1 and S100B, have been implicated in the onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, deciphering S100A1/S100B's role in AD has been hampered by their antipodal ...
-
(2018-07-10)Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant cause of death in dogs. However, the gene and microRNA (miRNA) expression profile that affects progression in CKD has only been partially characterized. Dogs with X-linked ...
-
(2017-05-02)Producers are constantly looking for ways to improve muscle growth in cattle such that both the quantity and quality of beef can be increased. One approach is to examine expression of microRNAs as a potential selection ...
