Neuroinflammation is a complicated and multifactorial reaction in the central nervous system (CNS) that contributes to the pathophysiology of many neurological illnesses, such as neurodegenerative diseases and traumatic brain injury. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified to play important regulatory roles in neuroinflammatory diseases, making for novel therapeutic concerns. This review provides an overview of recent studies targeting the modulation of circRNA to aid in neuroinflammation, utilizing both silencing and overexpression strategies to facilitate possible neuron protection from neuroinflammatory insults.

Cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and tissue homeostasis are significantly influenced by the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Dysregulation of this pathway has been implicated in the development of various types of cancer. This study focuses on the emerging role of kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) in modulating cancer signaling.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline and memory loss, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. Recent studies have highlighted the roles of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a NAD + -dependent deacetylase, in regulating various biological pathways associated with AD pathology, including amyloid-beta metabolism, tau hyperphosphorylation, and neuroinflammation. This review focuses on the therapeutic potential of synthetic and natural compounds that modulate SIRT1 levels, emphasizing their molecular mechanisms of action.

Several molecular strategies based on targeted gene delivery systems have been developed in recent years; however, the CRISPR-Cas9 technology introduced a new era of targeted gene editing, precisely modifying oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, and other regulatory genes involved in carcinogenesis. However, efficiently and safely delivering CRISPR-Cas9 to cancer cells across the cell membrane and the nucleus is still challenging. Using viral vectors and nanoparticles presents issues of immunogenicity, off-target effects, and low targeting affinity.

Breast cancer is a complicated malignancy and is known as the most common cancer in women. Considerable experiments have been devoted to explore the basic impacts of the tumor stroma, particularly the extracellular matrix (ECM) and stromal components, on tumor growth and resistance to treatment. ECM is made up of an intricate system of proteins, glycosaminoglycans, and proteoglycans, and maintains structural support and controls key signaling pathways involved in breast tumors.

Article Synopsis
  • Extracting high-quality RNA from cotton is tough due to substances like polyphenolics and polysaccharides that interfere with the process.
  • A new RNA extraction method using Triton-X-100 and Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVPP) has been developed, which effectively removes these problematic compounds and allows for successful RNA precipitation with Lithium chloride (LiCl).
  • The study evaluates this new RNA extraction technique by synthesizing cDNA from cotton CMS lines and examining mitochondrial genes linked to male sterility, highlighting its advantages and limitations compared to existing protocols.

Phage therapy; a revived antimicrobial weapon, has great therapeutic advantages with the main ones being its ability to eradicate multidrug-resistant pathogens as well as selective toxicity, which ensures that beneficial microbiota is not harmed, unlike antibiotics. These therapeutic properties make phage therapy a novel approach for combating resistant pathogens. Since millions of people across the globe succumb to multidrug-resistant infections, the implementation of phage therapy as a standard antimicrobial could transform global medicine as it offers greater therapeutic advantages than conventional antibiotics.

Peanut, an important oilseed crop, frequently encounters drought stress (DS) during its life cycle. In this study, four previously developed transgenic (T) peanut lines were used for detailed characterization under DS, at the reproductive stage using lysimeter system under controlled greenhouse conditions. In dry-down experiments, T lines maintained better photosynthetic machinery, such as, photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration rate, and SPAD (Soil-Plant Analyses Development) values, and had lower oxidative damage, including lipid membrane peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide and superoxide radical accumulation than WT, when exposed to 24 days of DS.
