Published: November 2005

In this paper, we describe a specific method for ultrastructural detection of RNA. Our method is based in the bromination "in situ" of uridine residues in the RNA, which allows the detection of brominated RNA with specific antibodies against bromo-deoxyuridine. With this method we can achieve high specificity and resolution, and it can be applied to Epon or acrylic resin embedded material.

As multiple imaging modalities cannot reliably diagnose cardiac tumors, the molecular approach offers alternative ways to detect rare ones. One such molecular approach is CRISPR-based diagnostics (CRISPR-Dx). CRISPR-Dx enables visual readout, portable diagnostics, and rapid and multiplex detection of nucleic acids such as microRNA (miRNA).

Background: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most conserved internal RNA modifications, which has been implicated in many biological processes, such as apoptosis and proliferation. Wilms tumor 1-associating protein (WTAP), as a key component of m6A methylation, is a nuclear protein that has been associated with the regulation of proliferation and apoptosis. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a systemic, infiltrating autoimmune disease, is characterized by synovial hyperplasia.

Background: Resistance to multiple herbicides is common in Lolium rigidum. Here, resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS)- and susceptibility to acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides was confirmed in a glyphosate-resistant L. rigidum population (NLR70) from Australia and the mechanisms of pyroxsulam resistance were examined.

CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) have been heavily considered for gene therapy due to their high on-target efficiency, rapid activity and lack of insertional mutagenesis relative to other CRISPR-Cas9 delivery formats. Genetic diseases such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy currently lack effective treatment strategies and are prime targets for CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology. However, current in-vivo delivery strategies for Cas9 pose risks of unwanted immunogenic responses.

Hepatoblastoma (HBL) and fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FLC) are the most common liver malignancies in children and young adults. FLC oncogenesis is associated with the generation of the fusion kinase, DNAJB1-PKAc (J-PKAc). J-PKAc has been found in 90% of FLC patients' tumors but not in other liver cancers.
