This isn't the first time RNA has been honored recently. The molecule has been something of a scientific darling of late: ...

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 ...

Neuroscientists discover that Rett syndrome mutations cause a leaky brain via overexpressed miRNA-126-3p, pointing to a new ...

PHILADELPHIA -- Researchers long thought that only one strand of a double-stranded microRNA can silence genes. Though recent evidence has challenged that dogma, it's unclear what the other strand does ...

Researchers show two distinct MECP2 mutations in Rett syndrome elevate miRNA-126-3p, lowering ZO-1 and weakening blood-brain ...

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.

microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential regulators of gene expression in diverse biological processes and disease states. They are short 22-nt noncoding RNAs that bind to mRNA targets via partial base ...
