RNA can interact with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), mRNA, or other non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) to form complex regulatory networks. High-throughput CLIP-seq, degradome-seq, and RNA-RNA interactome sequencing methods represent powerful approaches to identify biologically relevant ncRNA-target and protein-ncRNA interactions. However, assigning ncRNAs to their regulatory target genes or interacting RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) remains technically challenging.

- Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) using a Dermatophagoides farinae vaccine is effective in treating allergic conjunctivitis in a mouse model, although the exact mechanism is not fully understood.
- The study showed that SLIT significantly reduced symptoms and histopathological changes similar to human allergic conjunctivitis, such as inflammation and elevated immunoglobulins.
- SLIT treatment decreased total IgE and specific IgE levels while increasing IgG4 and Th1 cytokines, suggesting a shift from a Th2-dominated immune response, indicating its potential as an effective immunotherapy.
A new di-O-prenylated flavone from an actinomycete Streptomyces sp. MA-12.

A new di-O-prenylated flavone, named 7,3'-di-(γ,γ-dimethylallyloxy)-5-hydroxy-4'-methoxyflavone (1), was isolated from the culture broth of the endophytic actinomycete Streptomyces sp. MA-12 isolated from the root of the semi-mangrove plant Myoporum bontioides A. Gray.
