Serine and Arginine Rich Splicing Factor 1 (SRSF1) is a splicing factor that binds to exonic enhancers and stimulates splicing and is previously implicated with autoimmunity. Herein, we investigate the role of SRSF1 in regulating innate immune functions that are pertinent in the pathogenesis of auto-inflammatory diseases. Specifically, we show that conditional deletion of SRSF1 in mature lymphocytes resulted in higher expression of il-17a and il-17 f and an expansion of IL17A CD8 T cells. Mechanistically, the aberrant expression of IL-17A in SRSF1 cKO mice could not be attributed to alternative splicing of il-17a or il-17 f genes but possibly to defective CD11BLY6C myeloid derived suppressor function in the spleen. Finally, meta-analysis of RNA-Seq collected from psoriasis patients demonstrate a clear correlation between SRSF1 and psoriasis that suggests a putative role of SRSF1 in IL-17A-induced psoriasis.

Background: LIN28, a highly conserved RNA-binding protein, regulate a wide variety of post-transcriptional cellular processes. The current study aimed to identify genetic variants of five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the LIN28B gene (rs221634, rs22163, rs314276, rs9404590, and rs12194974) and their association with Breast cancer.
Method: 220 patients and 230 controls were genotyped by the RFLP assay for Lin28B gene variants.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a less common hematological malignancy in Indian people. It accounts for less than 5% of all leukemias. Information on genomic alteration in CLL is limited immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region (IGHV) mutational status is considered the most reliable prognostic marker.

As the most prevalent type of alternative splicing in animal cells, exon skipping plays an important role in expanding the diversity of transcriptome and proteome, thereby participating in the regulation of diverse physiological and pathological processes such as development, aging, and cancer. Cellular senescence serving as an anti-cancer mechanism could also contribute to individual aging. Although the dynamic changes of exon skipping during cellular senescence were revealed, its biological consequence and upstream regulator remain poorly understood.

The etiology of congenital heart disease (CHD) is complex, comprising both genetic and environmental factors. Despite documented familial occurrences, the genetic etiology remains largely elusive. Trio exome sequencing identified a heterozygous FLT4 splice site variant in two families with respectively tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), and variable CHD comprising both the TOF spectrum and aortic coarctation.

A bidirectional nucleus-mitochondria communication is essential for homeostasis and stress. By acting as critical molecules, the nuclear-encoded lncRNAs (nulncRNAs) have been implicated in the nucleus-to-mitochondria anterograde regulation. However, role of mitochondrial-derived lncRNAs (mtlncRNAs) in the mitochondria-to-nucleus retrograde regulation remains elusive.
