Researchers have found that levels of methylated microRNA were significantly higher in tissue and serum from cancer patients compared with that from normal controls. Specifically, methylation ...

A recent study has identified a microRNA that could help reverse hair loss. The findings could lead to more effective, less time-consuming interventions.

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was jointly awarded to Victor R. Ambros, PhD, and Gary Ruvkun, PhD, for the discovery of microRNA and its role in gene regulation.The Nobel Assembly ...

“The fully modified microRNA is >400-fold more stable than an unmodified or partially modified version. This increases the duration of the therapy, resulting in less frequent dosing.

MicroRNA Profiling MicroRNAs, or miRNAs, are small RNAs that regulate gene expression after transcription has taken place. This occurs in both healthy physiological states and diseased states in ...

Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun discovered microRNA while studying the worm Caenorhabditis elegans. Ambros found that the gene lin-4 encoded a tiny RNA that did not code for a protein, and when ...
