A rare and stubborn form of kidney cancer has just given up one of its most closely guarded secrets. In a study published in ...

Researchers in Inner Mongolia have identified a cytoplasmic long non-coding RNA, MSTRG.18075.2, that peaks at embryonic day ...

Macrophages are considered the "scavenger cells" of the immune system, but some pathogens exploit these very cells as hiding places. Researchers from the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that a specific long non-coding RNA activates oncogenic signaling pathways in prostate cancer cells and drives tumor progression, underscoring its ...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are dysregulated in many malignancies, including gastric cancer, where they may act as oncogenes or tumour suppressors. This study examined six lncRNAs—SLC12A5-AS1, ...

A team from University of Toronto Engineering is the first to synthesize long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) outside the cell—a new approach to drug discovery that has already yielded some promising ...

When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...

The function of non-coding RNA in the cell has long been a mystery to researchers. Unlike coding RNA, non-coding RNA does not produce proteins—yet it exists in large quantities. A research team from ...

When researchers look for potential cancer therapy targets, they typically go after protein-coding genes that participate in disease progression. Disrupt them and negate whatever role they play in ...

I have completed a master's degree in a science-related graduate school and work as a researcher at a manufacturing company.
