Emerging evidence underscores the critical role of impaired mRNA translation in various neurobiological conditions. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA), essential for protein synthesis, undergoes crucial post-transcriptional modifications such as 2'-O-ribose methylation, pseudouridylation, and base modifications. These modifications, particularly 2'-O-ribose methylation is vital for stabilizing rRNA structures and optimizing translation efficiency by regulating RNA integrity and its interactions with proteins.

Adverse experiences of early-life stress (ELS) are prominent risk factors for the precipitation of major depressive disorder (MDD). In recent years, dysfunction of the central noradrenergic (NA) system and subsequent deficits in norepinephrine (NE) signaling have gained increasing attention in the pathophysiology of MDD.

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are gaining traction for their role in higher-order brain functioning. Recently, we reported that lncRNA coexpression modules may underlie abnormal responses to stress in rats showing depression-like behavior.

Due to the fact that PMC reinforced with naturally occurring fibres is more affordable and has superior mechanical qualities. Based on the application material requirements, An important step in the production of PMC is choosing the right natural fibres for reinforcing and determining how much of each.
