21A is an Alu non-coding (nc) RNA transcribed by RNA polymerase (pol) III. While investigating the biological role of 21A ncRNA we documented an inverse correlation between its expression level and the rate of cell proliferation. The downregulation of this ncRNA not only caused a boost in cell proliferation, but was also associated to a transient cell dedifferentiation, suggesting a possible involvement of this RNA in cell dedifferentiation/reprogramming. In this study, we explored the possibility to enhance proliferation and dedifferentiation of cells of interest, by 21A down-regulation, using a mixture of chemically modified Anti-21A RNAs. Our results confirmed the validity of this approach that allows the amplification of specific cell populations, in a controlled manner and without inducing permanent effects. In addition to induce cell proliferation, the procedure did not decrease the tissue regeneration potential of progenitor cells in two different cell systems. 相似文献

Knowledge regarding the relationship between the molecular mechanisms underlying atherosclerosis (AS) and transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) is limited. This study illustrated the expression profile of tsRNAs, thus exploring its roles in AS pathogenesis. Small RNA sequencing was performed with four atherosclerotic arterial and four healthy subject samples. Using bioinformatics, the protein-protein interaction network and cellular experiments were constructed to predict the enriched signalling pathways and regulatory roles of tsRNAs in AS. Of the total 315 tsRNAs identified to be dysregulated in the AS group, 131 and 184 were up-regulated and down-regulated, respectively. Interestingly, the pathway of the differentiated expression of tsRNAs in cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) was implicated to be closely associated with AS. Particularly, tRF-Gly-GCC might participate in AS pathogenesis via regulating cell adhesion, proliferation, migration and phenotypic transformation in HUVECs and VSMCs. In conclusion, tsRNAs might help understand the molecular mechanisms of AS better. tRF-Gly-GCC may be a promising target for suppressing abnormal vessels functions, suggesting a novel strategy for preventing the progression of atherosclerosis. 相似文献

长链非编码RNA(long non-coding RNA,lncRNA)是一类广泛存在于动植物体内、长度大于200nt、基本不编码蛋白质的转录本。研究表明,lncRNA能够协助蛋白质复合体转运、参与基因和染色体的激活与失活调控等,在胚胎发育、肌肉生长、脂肪沉积以及免疫应答等过程中发挥重要作用。近年来,在人类基因组计划和ENCODE(The Encyclopedia of DNA Elements)计划推动下,在动物中不仅鉴定出数量众多的lncRNA,而且在lncRNA调控脂肪代谢、肌肉发育以及免疫抗病等重要生物学过程的机理研究方面也取得了突破性的进展。这些研究结果颠覆了lncRNA不编码蛋白的传统观念,提出了lncRNA编码功能性小肽调控生物学过程的新模型。本文主要介绍了动物lncRNA的特征与类型、常用数据库、生物学功能、分子调控模型以及未来lncRNA的研究方向,以期为动物lncRNA功能研究提供参考信息。 相似文献

CCEPR (cervical carcinoma expressed PCNA regulatory lncRNA) has been found to be upregulated and enhance cell proliferation in human cancers. However, the role of CCEPR in osteosarcoma remains to be discovered. In this study, we found CCEPR expression was elevated in osteosarcoma tissue specimens and cell lines compared with adjacent normal tissue specimens and osteoblast cell line, respectively. Meanwhile, osteosarcoma patients with advanced stage or tumor size greater than 8 cm had higher expression of CCEPR than patients with early stage or tumor size less than or equal to 8 cm, respectively. Survival analysis suggested that osteosarcoma patients with high CCEPR expression had a worse overall survival rate than those with low CCEPR expression. The in vitro study indicated that CCEPR positively regulated proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression in osteosarcoma cells and silencing of CCEPR inhibited osteosarcoma cell proliferation through decreasing PCNA expression. In conclusion, CCEPR is a potential prognostic predictor and functions as oncogenic long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) to regulate cell proliferation via PCNA in osteosarcoma. 相似文献

小细胞外囊泡(small extracellular vesicles,sEVs)是由细胞分泌的一种细胞外囊泡,产生于多泡体,多泡体与质膜融合并释放到细胞外基质。由于小细胞外囊泡可以携带分子质量相对较小的核酸、蛋白质、脂质,能够执行细胞间物质传递、细胞间通讯等功能。因此,小细胞外囊泡及其携带的非编码RNA不仅参与细胞正常生理过程,也可以在多种疾病的发生发展过程中起重要作用。本文综述了小细胞外囊泡在非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)中的作用,小细胞外囊泡及其携带的非编码RNA不仅有望成为NAFLD诊断的标志物,同时也具有治疗NAFLD的潜在作用,或能为治疗NAFLD提供新思路。 相似文献

长非编码RNA(long non-coding RNA, lncRNA)的序列长度超过200核苷酸(nucleotide, nt),部分可编码多肽。生物信息分析和多组学技术已被用于在乳腺癌中批量鉴定lncRNA与lncRNA编码肽。本文通过在线软件分析了Spencer数据库中收录的919个lncRNA编码的乳腺癌肿瘤特异性多肽,结果显示,这些多肽涉及抗癌、抗炎和细胞穿透等活性。乳腺癌的发生发展与lncRNAs的异常表达密切相关,lncRNAs通过编码多肽、调控表观遗传、调节免疫等多种途径影响乳腺癌发展。部分lncRNA编码肽独立于lncRNA,通过表观遗传调控、抑制血管生成等途径调控乳腺癌的发展。lncRNA与lncRNA编码肽在乳腺癌的诊断与治疗中也有较大的应用潜力。因此,本文系统综述了lncRNA与lncRNA编码肽在乳腺癌发生发展与诊断治疗中的作用,对该研究领域目前存在的问题和挑战进行了分析。 相似文献

Genomic imprinting, representing parent-specific expression of alleles at a locus, is mainly evident in flowering plants and placental mammals. Most imprinted genes, including numerous non-coding RNAs, are located in clusters regulated by imprinting control regions (ICRs). The acquisition and evolution of genomic imprinting is among the most fundamental genetic questions. Discoveries about the transition of mammalian imprinted gene domains from their non-imprinted ancestors, especially recent studies undertaken on the most ancient mammalian clades — the marsupials and monotremes from which model species genomes have recently been sequenced, are of high value. By reviewing and analyzing these studies, a close connection between non-coding RNAs and the acquisition of genomic imprinting in mammals is demonstrated. The evidence comes from two observations accompanied with the acquisition of the imprinting: (i) many novel non-coding RNA genes emerged in imprinted regions; (ii) the expressions of some conserved non-coding RNAs have changed dramatically. Furthermore, a systematical analysis of imprinted snoRNA (small nucleolar RNA) genes from 15 vertebrates suggests that the origination of imprinted snoRNAs occurred after the divergence between eutherians and marsupials, followed by a rapid expansion leading to the fixation of major gene families in the eutherian ancestor prior to the radiation of modern placental mammals. Involved in the regulation of imprinted silencing and mediating the chromatins epigenetic modification may be the major roles that non-coding RNAs play during the acquisition of genomic imprinting in mammals.

细菌在生存过程中要面对复杂多样的环境,在长期进化过程中,细菌逐渐形成不同的应答机制来感应环境信号的变化,并通过精确的基因表达来调控生理生化反应。基因表达调控可分为转录水平和转录后水平两个方面,对于细菌来说,非编码RNA在转录后调控上发挥着重要的作用,而大多数非编码RNA与靶标m RNA的相互作用过程又离不开Hfq蛋白的辅助。本文综述了非编码RNA的分类、调控特点,伴侣蛋白Hfq的结构、功能以及两者相互作用的机制,以期深入了解非编码RNA及其伴侣蛋白Hfq在转录后调控中发挥的作用。 相似文献

Identifying all essential genomic components is critical for the assembly of minimal artificial life. In the genome-reduced bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae, we found that small ORFs (smORFs; < 100 residues), accounting for 10% of all ORFs, are the most frequently essential genomic components (53%), followed by conventional ORFs (49%). Essentiality of smORFs may be explained by their function as members of protein and/or DNA/RNA complexes. In larger proteins, essentiality applied to individual domains and not entire proteins, a notion we could confirm by expression of truncated domains. The fraction of essential non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) non-overlapping with essential genes is 5% higher than of non-transcribed regions (0.9%), pointing to the important functions of the former. We found that the minimal essential genome is comprised of 33% (269,410 bp) of the M. pneumoniae genome. Our data highlight an unexpected hidden layer of smORFs with essential functions, as well as non-coding regions, thus changing the focus when aiming to define the minimal essential genome. 相似文献

长链非编码RNAs (long non-coding RNAs, lncRNAs) 是一类长度大于200 nt,无蛋白质编码功能的RNAs。近年来,lncRNAs在肿瘤发生发展中的作用备受关注。LncRNAs芯片分析结合后期实时荧光定量PCR验证发现,ITGA9-AS1在MCF-7细胞中的表达量显著高于耐药细胞MCF-7/5Fu,且其在乳腺癌细胞中的表达量显著低于正常乳腺上皮细胞。生物信息学预测,ITGA9 AS1无蛋白质编码功能。在乳腺癌细胞T47D中过表达ITGA9-AS1,可显著抑制该细胞的增殖和克隆形成能力,增加该细胞对化疗药物顺铂(cisplatin, cDDP)的敏感性。相反,在乳腺上皮细胞MCF-10A中敲低ITGA9-AS1的表达,能够明显增加该细胞的增殖能力和克隆形成能力,同时降低该细胞对cDDP的敏感性。总之,lncRNA ITGA9-AS1可抑制乳腺癌细胞增殖,增强乳腺癌细胞对化疗药物的敏感性。 相似文献

The prevalence of ocular disorders is dramatically increasing worldwide, especially those that cause visual impairment and permanent loss of vision, including cataract, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. Extensive evidence has shown that ncRNAs are key regulators in various biogenesis and biological functions, controlling gene expression related to histogenesis and cell differentiation in ocular tissues. Aberrant expression and function of ncRNA can lead to dysfunction of visual system and mediate progression of eye disorders. Here, we mainly offer an overview of the role of precise modulation of ncRNAs in eye development and function in patients with eye diseases. We also highlight the challenges and future perspectives in conducting ncRNA studies, focusing specifically on the role of ncRNAs that may hold expanded promise for their diagnostic and therapeutic applications in various eye diseases.
