The analysis of miRNA expression profile is powerful support to screen new disease biomarkers. One miRNA can control the expression of several different protein mRNAs. Lack of knowledge about the process of target recognition is a weak point in the development of reliable computational tools for miRNA target selection. Here we present a novel integrative approach for to predict potential miRNA target. It is a workflow founded on integration proteomic and miRNA information. The software has been tested on a sample of proteomic data obtained from samples of mouse subjected to the effect of Environmental Cigarette Smoke (ECS).

Background: Globally, Breast Cancer (BC) is the most frequent cancer in women and has a major negative impact on the physical and emotional well-being of its patients as well as one of the most common cancers to be diagnosed. Numerous studies have been published to identify various molecular pathways, including PI3K/AKT/PTEN. Moreover, growing evidence suggests that miRNAs have been found to play a vital role in the growth and carcinogenesis of tumors.

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults and has a median survival of less than 15 months. Advancements in the field of epigenetics have expanded our understanding of cancer biology and helped explain the molecular heterogeneity of these tumors. B-cell-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus insertion site-1 (Bmi-1) is a member of the highly conserved polycomb group (PcG) protein family that acts as a transcriptional repressor of multiple genes, including those that determine cell proliferation and differentiation.

Exosomes are integral to the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA) due to their roles in mediating intercellular communication and regulating inflammatory processes. Exosomes are integral to the transport of bioactive molecules, such as proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, which can influence chondrocyte behavior and joint homeostasis. Given their properties of regeneration and ability to target damaged tissues, exosomes represent a promising therapeutic avenue for OA treatment.

Over 90% of people are infected with the human g-herpesvirus known as the Epstein- Barr virus (EBV). Cancers, such as gastric carcinoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, Hodgkin's lymphoma, and Burkitt lymphoma, are thought to be linked with EBV. It is noteworthy that the first virus discovered that encodes microRNAs (miRNAs) was EBV, and these miRNAs show expression at the different phases of EBV infection.

Background: Periodontitis destroys the tooth's supporting structures and attachment apparatus. Local or systemic factors can cause it. Traditionally, diagnosis is based on clinical parameters that may not consistently reflect an accurate confirmation.
