Our brains contain billions of neurons and trillions of connections, and scientists are only beginning to understand the intricate process required to build this level of complexity. This includes ...

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for their groundbreaking discovery of microRNA and its pivotal role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

MicroRNA-27a has been shown to stimulate both the wingless-type integration site family, or Wnt signaling, and the bone morphogenetic protein pathways to actively promote bone regeneration, according ...

Study links exosomal microRNA to ventricular remodelling in heart failure. Discover how this biomarker could inform future ...

Potential of Field Is Catalyst for Emerging Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategies As key regulators of gene expression and cellular machinery, microRNAs may be the most significant discovery in ...

American researchers Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. The Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute, Sweden, announced the award on Monday.

Dr. Yogesh Dwivedi authored a book chapter “microRNA Function and Dysregulation in Depression and Suicide” in Suicide Phenomenology and Neurobiology, Edited by: Keri Cannon and Thomas Hudzik.

Researchers found that specific microRNAs can modulate molecular stress responses, influencing how the body copes with prolonged or repeated stress. This is significant because chronic stress is ...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression by interacting with messenger RNAs (mRNAs) from genes that encode proteins. The aberrant expression of miRNAs has ...

MicroRNAs are essential for Purkinje cells to develop their characteristically elaborate dendritic arbors. When Scripps Research scientists temporarily turned off microRNA function during development, ...
