Macrophages are considered the "scavenger cells" of the immune system, but some pathogens exploit these very cells as hiding ...

University of Virginia postdoctoral researcher Róża Przanowska investigates how long non-coding RNA structural domains drive ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have discovered that a novel long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), which are usually 200 nucleotides longer than typical RNAs and are widely expressed in cells, could serve ...

A research team from National Taiwan University, Academia Sinica, and National Taiwan University Hospital has uncovered a critical connection between a unique RNA molecule and human aging, including ...

When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...

Kill switch” for scavenger cells Dr. Charlotte Schwenner Presse und Kommunikation Helmholtz-Zentrum für Infektionsforschung. Researchers from Würzburg and ...

Sarra Limam, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of South Florida, investigates how injury-induced non-coding RNAs ...

A study has shown that a type of non-coding RNA molecule could play a role in the development of skin diseases—like eczema or psoriasis—and highlights an important molecular mechanism for driving ...

The function of non-coding RNA in the cell has long been a mystery to researchers. Unlike coding RNA, non-coding RNA does not produce proteins—yet it exists in large quantities. A research team from ...
