RNA binding proteins (RBPs) enact a very crucial part in the RNA directive processes. Atypical expression of these RBPs affects many steps of RNA metabolism, majorly altering its expression. Altered expression and dysfunction of RNA binding proteins lead to cancer progression and other diseases. We enumerate various available interventions, and recent findings focused on targeting RBPs for cancer therapy and diagnosis. The treatment, sensitization, chemoprevention, gene-mediated, and virus mediated interventions were studied to treat and diagnose cancer. The application of passively and actively targeted lipidic nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, virus-based particles, and vaccine-based immunotherapy for the delivery of therapeutic agent/s against cancer are discussed. We also discuss the formulation aspect of nanoparticles for achieving delivery at the site of action and ongoing clinical trials targeting RBPs.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), the most predominant subtype of esophageal cancer, is notorious for its high lymph node metastatic potential and poor prognosis. Growing evidence has demonstrated crucial function of circRNAs in human malignancies. However, the knowledge of circRNAs in lymph node metastasis of ESCC is still inadequate.

Purpose: Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant tumor associated with poor patient outcomes and a limited availability of therapeutic agents. Scutellarein (SCU) is a monomeric flavone bioactive compound with potent anti-cancer activity. However, the effects and mechanisms of SCU on the growth of OS remain unknown.

As a result, transcription at one locus has the potential to impact nearby transcription events. In this study, we asked how DNA supercoiling affects histone modifications and transcription of neighboring genes in the multicellular eukaryote .

In the nematode , heterochronic microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate the temporal expression of genes that promote animal development. The heterochronic miRNAs lin-4 and let-7 are required during different stages of larval development and are associated with the miRNA-specific Argonaute ALG-1.

While a diverse set of fluorogenic aptamers has been developed, a new generation of aptamers are beginning to exploit the ring-opening of spirocyclic rhodamine dyes to achieve robust performance in live mammalian cells. These fluorophores have two chemical states: a colorless, cell-permeable spirocyclic state and a fluorescent zwitterionic state.
