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 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 ...
In cells, DNA is transcribed into RNAs that provide the molecular recipe for cells to make proteins. Most of the genome is transcribed into RNA, but only a small proportion of RNAs are actually from ...
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 ...
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 ...
