Physiological and Pathological Roles for MicroRNAs: Implications for Immunity Complications
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding regulatory RNAs molecules with a size of approximately 22 nucleotides that are implicated in regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional regulatory levels. Inflammatory disorders especially autoimmune diseases (ADs) occur from an abnormal immune response of body against cells of their own specific tissues or multiple organ systems leading to ch...
متن کاملSOCS2: physiological and pathological functions.
Suppressors of cytokine signalling (SOCS) proteins are modulators of cytokine and growth factor signalling whose aberrant regulation has been linked to a variety of inflammatory and neoplastic diseases. SOCS proteins are able to act as substrate-recruiting component of E3-ubiquitin ligase complexes and target interacting proteins for degradation. At least some of the family members can also dir...
متن کاملPhysiological and Pathological Functions of Mammalian MicroRNAs
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 19to 26-nucleotide RNAs that regulate gene expression. Over 700 human miRNAgenes have been identified, with one report predicting close to 1000. Recent computational methods indicatethat up to 92% of human genes may be regulated by miRNA. In this chapter, we discuss recent progress inmiRNA biology and their roles in human disease pathogenesis, as well as o...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of LRRK2: from kinase to substrate.
The PD (Parkinson's disease) protein LRRK2 (leucine-rich repeat kinase 2) occurs in cells as a highly phosphorylated protein, with the majority of phosphosites clustering in the region between the ankyrin repeat and leucine-rich repeat domains. The observation that several pathogenic variants of LRRK2 display strongly reduced cellular phosphorylation suggests that phosphorylation of LRRK2 is in...
متن کاملEpicardial Fat: Physiological, Pathological, and Therapeutic Implications
Epicardial fat is closely related to blood supply vessels, both anatomically and functionally, which is why any change in this adipose tissue's behavior is considered a potential risk factor for cardiovascular disease development. When proinflammatory adipokines are released from the epicardial fat, this can lead to a decrease in insulin sensitivity, low adiponectin production, and an increased...
