Article Abstract
Abiotic challenges have a major impact on plant growth and development. Recent research has highlighted the role of long non-coding RNAs in response to these environmental stressors. Long non-coding RNAs are transcripts that are usually longer than 200 nucleotides with no potential for coding proteins. This review provides a thorough overview of current knowledge regarding the plant-long non-coding RNAs, their classification, biogenesis, functional mechanism, and their role in responses to the abiotic stress like drought, salinity, extreme temperatures etc. It also emphasizes the latest developments in bioinformatics and high-throughput sequencing, which have made it possible to identify and characterize lncRNAs in response to stress in many plant species. Also, this review aims to consolidate the potential of lncRNAs as targets for biotechnology to enhance crop resistance and to identify key challenges and opportunities for future research on lncRNA-mediated stress adaptation in plants.

TLR8 and TLR9 are innate immune receptors belonging to the TLR family that are essential for viral recognition and early immune activation. Their dysfunction is linked to increased susceptibility to infections. TLR8 detects viral single- and double-stranded RNA, while TLR9 recognizes viral DNA molecules with CpG motifs.

Epigenetic mechanisms are essential in neurogenesis during development and adulthood. DNA methylation, histone post-translational modifications, and non-coding RNAs regulate gene expression to maintain the neural stem cell pool and direct the fate of newborn neurons by modulating cell proliferation, migration, differentiation, maturation, and survival. Adult neurogenesis exhibits bidirectional interactions with non-social and socio-sexual factors such as sexual behavior, mate recognition, pair bonding, parental behavior, and offspring recognition.

The dengue virus (DENV) poses a significant threat to human health, accounting for approximately 400 million infections each year. Its genome features a circular structure that facilitates replication through long-range RNA-RNA interactions, utilizing cyclization sequences located in the untranslated regions (UTRs). To gain new insights into the organization of the DENV genome, we purified the 5' and 3' UTRs of DENV in vitro and examined their structural and binding properties using various biophysical techniques combined with computational methods.

Glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity represents a common pathomechanism in neurological disorders. As the predominant glutamate transporter in the central nervous system, glutamate transporter 1 (GLT-1, known as EAAT2 in humans) plays a crucial role in maintaining glutamate homeostasis and preventing excitotoxicity through its Na⁺-dependent transport mechanism. Key functions of GLT-1 include reducing extracellular glutamate concentration, regulating calcium homeostasis, suppressing oxidative stress, preserving mitochondrial integrity, and modulating neuroinflammatory processes by limiting microglial activation.
