Nucleolar RNA stored within the interphase nucleus offers a targetable site for processing ribosomal RNAs that can significantly impact the synthesis of cytosolic protein. Nevertheless, information regarding nucleolus ultrastructure is still largely limited to observations from electron microscopy, while its interior information including the correlation between nucleolar RNA and ribosomes remains to be elucidated. In this work, we designed a highly charged terpyridyl manganese(II) complex which could rapidly penetrate into live cell nucleus and selectively 'light up' nucleolar RNA. Its superior optical properties allow the observation nucleolar ultrastructures under super-resolution nanoscopy including RNA rich dense fibrillar components and fibrillar centers. Moreover, this complex allowed us to explain the nucleolar RNA dynamics and its relationship with ribosomes under the translation of protein synthesis.

A growing body of evidence suggests the involvement of long noncoding ribose nucleic acids (lncRNAs) in acute kidney injury (AKI). This study focused on the mechanistic role of lncRNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 12 (SNHG12) in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-mediated AKI. A model of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) was created using human kidney cells (HK-2).

-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) is a nucleolar acetyltransferase with an acetylation catalytic function and can bind various protein and RNA molecules. As the N4-acetylcytidine (ac4C) "writer" enzyme, NAT10 is reportedly involved in a variety of physiological and pathological activities. Currently, the NAT10-related molecular mechanisms in various cancers are not fully understood.

Small nucleolar RNAs may serve as new potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer. The purpose of our study was to reveal the mechanism small nucleolar RNA 42 (SNORA42) affects the proliferation and migration of liver cancer cells. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to detect the expression of SNORA42 and its host gene.

Background: Emerging evidence shows that small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), a type of highly conserved non-coding RNA, is involved in tumorigenesis and aggressiveness. However, the roles of snoRNAs in regulating alternative splicing crucial for cancer progression remain elusive.
Methods: High-throughput RNA sequencing and comprehensive analysis were performed to identify crucial snoRNAs and downstream alternative splicing events.
