Gene regulation is crucial for cellular function and homeostasis. It involves diverse mechanisms controlling the production of specific gene products and contributing to tissue-specific variations in gene expression. The dysregulation of genes leads...
Liver fibrosis is a significant contributor to liver-related disease mortality on a global scale. Despite this, there remains a dearth of effective therapeutic interventions capable of reversing this condition. Consequently, it is imperative that we...
This is a mini-review capturing the views and opinions of selected participants at the 2021 IEEE BIBM 3rd Annual LncRNA Workshop, held in Dubai, UAE. The views and opinions are expressed on five broad themes related to problems in lncRNA, namely, cha...
We developed a technology for detecting and quantifying trace nucleic acids using a bracketing protocol designed to yield a copy number with approximately ± 20% accuracy across all concentrations. The microRNAs (miRNAs) let-7b, miR-15b, miR-21...
The high incidence of idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss (iRPL) may stem from the limited research on male contributory factors. Many studies suggest that sperm DNA fragmentation and oxidative stress contribute to iRPL, but their roles are still deb...
Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death among people with HIV-1 infection. To improve the diagnosis and treatment of HIV-TB patients, it is important to understand the mechanisms underlying these conditions. Here, we used an integrated genomi...
Background: Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of eukaryotic genomes. The extensive body of evidence suggests that although they were once considered “genomic parasites”, transposons and their transcripts perform specific fu...
Paratuberculosis or Johne’s disease (JD), a chronic granulomatous gastroenteritis caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), causes huge economic losses and reduces animal welfare in dairy cattle herds worldwide. At present, m...
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), which include small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), are RNA molecules that arise from genomic regions without protein-cod...
