Ribosome biogenesis is critical for the proper production of proteins in cells and has emerged as a regulator of cell invasion and migration in development and in cancer. The border cells form a collective that invades and migrates through the surrounding tissue during oogenesis. We previously found that a significant number of ribosome biogenesis genes are differentially expressed from early to late migration stages. Here, we performed a small-scale RNAi screen of a subset of these ribosome genes. Knockdown of seven genes disrupted border cell migration, thus revealing a role for ribosome biogenesis genes in regulating collective cell migration.

Heart transplantation remains the ultimate treatment strategy for neonates and children with medically refractory end-stage heart failure and utilization of donors after circulatory death (DCD) can expand th donor pool. We have previously shown that mitochondrial transplantation preserves myocardial function and viability in neonatal swine DCD hearts to levels similar to that observed in donation after brain death (DBD). Herein, we sought to investigate the transcriptomic and proteomic pathways implicated in these phenotypic changes using ex situ perfused swine hearts.

Background: The dysregulation of ribosome biogenesis has been extensively identified in various cancers, making it emerge as a hallmark of malignant cells. This highlights the potential of targeting ribosome biogenesis as an effective approach for treating cancer patients. Although chemotherapy drugs including doxorubicin and cisplatin often target ribosome biogenesis to induce DNA damage or inhibit tumor cell proliferation, they are associated with significant side effects.

Maintenance and exit from pluripotency of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are controlled by highly coordinated processes of protein synthesis and ribosome biogenesis (RiBi). ESCs are characterized by low rates of global protein synthesis and high levels of RiBi. Transient reduction of RiBi is a characteristic molecular event during the exit from pluripotency, of which the regulatory mechanism is unclear.

Moderating the pool of active ribosomal subunits is critical for maintaining global translation rates. A factor crucial for modulating the 60S ribosomal subunit is eukaryotic translation initiation factor-6 (eIF6). Release of eIF6 from the 60S subunit is essential to permit 60S interactions with the 40S subunit.
