MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in development, differentiation, and homeostasis by regulating protein translation. In B-cell lymphoma, many miRNAs have altered expression levels, and for a limited subset of them, experimental data supports their functional relevance in lymphoma pathogenesis. This chapter describes an unbiased next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based high-throughput screening approach to identify miRNAs that are involved in the control of cell growth. First, we provide a protocol for performing high-throughput screening for miRNA inhibition and overexpression. Second, we describe the procedure for next-generation sequencing library preparation. Third, we provide a workflow for data analysis.

Background: Genetic markers are crucial for breeding crops with desired agronomic traits, and their development can be expedited using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and bioinformatics tools. Numerous tools have been developed to design molecular markers, enhancing the convenience, accuracy, and efficiency of molecular breeding. However, these tools primarily focus on genetic variants within short user-input sequences, despite the availability of extensive omics data for genomic variants.

Impairment of DNA mismatch repair function in neoplasms can be assessed by DNA-based methods to assess for high microsatellite instability (MSI-High) or immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis to assess for deficiency of mismatch repair proteins (dMMR). Neoplasms with mismatch repair deficiency often have high tumor mutational burden (TMB-High). MSI-High, dMMR, and TMB-High are all histology agnostic biomarkers for potential therapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI).

Article Synopsis
  • - HLA-DPB1*1641:01 and DPB1*02:02:01:01 are two variants of the HLA-DPB1 gene.
  • - They differ by a single nucleotide change, where a guanine (G) at position 668 is substituted with an adenine (A).
  • - This nucleotide substitution occurs specifically in exon 4 of the gene, which can affect the function or expression of the protein it encodes.

Article Synopsis
  • The human brain consists of billions of neurons and trillions of synapses, requiring coordinated activities from various cell types, which are hard to analyze with traditional methods.
  • New spatial omics technologies, merging transcriptomics and proteomics, have improved our understanding of brain tissue organization by providing detailed spatial context.
  • Techniques like FISH, in situ sequencing, and next-generation sequencing enable high-resolution gene expression data and insights into diseases like Alzheimer's and depression, despite ongoing challenges in cost and analysis.
