The microRNA-mediated future of humanity (6)

Olfactory specificity regulates lipid metabolism through neuroendocrine signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans3/19/20 Optogenetic activation or inhibition of the responsible olfactory neural circuit promotes the loss or gain of fat storage, respectively. To investigate the endocrine factors that mediate the communication between the olfactory neural circuit and the fat storage tissue, we focused on neuropeptides that are […]

The microRNA-mediated future of humanity (3)

Light-activated microRNA biogenesis has been linked from the pheromone-controlled physiology of reproduction to healthy longevity via protection from the virus-driven degradation of messenger RNA in all living genera. On 4/21/20 that fact was misrepresented as: Coronavirus has mutated into at least 30 different strains, Chinese study finds. The report was based on this non-peer-reviewed paper […]

See first: The tipping point (revisited): 100K (1) 3/30/20 Excerpts: MicroRNA Involvement in Signaling Pathways During Viral Infection 3/10/20 MicroRNAs organize intrinsic variation into stem cell states 3/5/20 …naturally arising cell-to-cell variation, sometimes described as stochastic fluctuation, is in fact coherently organized biology. Moving forward: Why do dozens of diseases wax and wane with the […]

Autophagy automagically prevents cancer (2)

Study suggests how high blood pressure might contribute to Alzheimer’s 1/28/19, and this report on another article from the same issue of  Nature Communications on 11/19/18 was also reported on 1/28/19 as New knowledge about the interactions of messenger RNAs and micro-RNAs during brain development …imbalance between cell types… can lead to this disease… and… […]

Quantized energy-dependent microRNA-mediated autophagy (2)

Summary: A single genetic change provided complete protection against an invariably lethal dementia. A naturally occurring variant of the human prion protein completely prevents prion disease (2015) …mice expressing only PrP V127 were completely resistant to all prion strains, demonstrating a different molecular mechanism to M129V, which provides its relative protection against classical CJD and […]
