It was found that RNA preparations isolated with the help of various inhibitors of RNAses from different eukariotic tissues, followed by thorough deproteinization contain particular ribonucleases ("masked" RNAses). These RNAses were supposed to be connected with RNA molecules and are not active. They may be activated by changes of RNA molecule conformation. Apparently the "marked" RNAses can take part in (a) processing of large precursor RNA molecules; (b) regulation of gene expression by means of specially cut RNA fragments.

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) offers enormous potential to decipher the biological and pathological heterogeneity in precious archival cancer tissues. Traditionally, these tissues have rarely been used and only examined at a low throughput, most commonly by histopathological staining. ST adds thousands of times as many molecular features to histopathological images, but critical technical issues and limitations require more assessment of how ST performs on fixed archival tissues.

Human RNA ligase 1 (Rlig1) catalyzes the ligation of 5'-phosphate to 3'-hydroxyl ends a conserved three-step mechanism. Rlig1-deficient HEK293 cells exhibit reduced cell viability and RNA integrity under oxidative stress, suggesting Rlig1's role in RNA repair maintenance. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are linked to various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and cancer, where RNA damage has significant effects.

Key Laboratory of Molecular Biology for Infectious Diseases (Ministry of Education), Institute for Viral Hepatitis, Department of Infectious Diseases, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.

Background: () is one of the most common pathogens associated with deep fungal infection, which represents a serious threat to human health. Although high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) plays a key role in infection, its mechanism is unclear. We aimed to explore the regulation of small-molecule non-coding RNA (miRNA) for HMGB1 in infection.

Introduction: Heart failure (HF) has a very high prevalence in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). However, there is still a lack of effective and reliable HF diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for patients with MHD.

Methods: In this study, we analyzed transcriptome profiles of 30 patients with MHD by high-throughput sequencing.

Identification of IGF2BP2 and long non-coding RNA TUG1 for the prognosis and tumour microenvironment in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Acta Otorhinolaryngol Ital

January 2025

Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, The Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan, China.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the role of m6A-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the prognosis and tumour microenvironment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Methods: 497 samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas were analysed to identify m6A-related lncRNAs via correlation models. Tripartite regression models, Kaplan-Meier analysis and nomograms were then utilised to assess the prognostic significance of these lncRNAs.
