Autophagy-related microRNA-mediated disease treatment (1)

Nanomaterials for Autophagy-Related miRNA-34a Delivery in Cancer Treatment Indexed on PubMed 8/16/20 This article is part of the Research Topic Novel Cancer Treatments based on Autophagy Modulation View all 11 Articles  1)  “…understanding of the molecular mechanisms controlling autophagy…is still far from being elucidated.” That is a lie. Good questions lead towards understanding. Question: How […]

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 […]

The tipping point (revisited): 68,000 publications

MicroRNA  Items: 1 to 20 of 68011 (earlier today, on 12/21/17) See for example: In Vitro Validation of miRNA-Mediated Gene Expression Linked to Drug Metabolism 12/20/17 The approaches described can be employed broadly for the validation of miRNA-mediated negative regulation of any gene. Determining miRNA-mediated regulation of enzymes and transporters affecting drug metabolism is a critical […]

Trump challenges the CDC to remember 9/11

Synopsis: If you do not understand the experimentally established facts… use caution if you attempt to compare the President of the USA to Hitler. If you tell me I am being disrespectful or condescending,  you may be more embarrassed than Nobel Laureate, Jack Szostak, and be subjected to more ridicule than Neil deGrasse Tyson, who […]

Autophagy.pro vs Nature Publications Group

Autophagy is the antiphage defense strategy (James V. Kohl: December 8, 2016) Autophagy.pro was launched on 11 December 2017 See for comparison from the Nature Publications Group.  First, they try to establish a more complicated new definition with several different pathways Autophagy Autophagy is a process by which cellular material is degraded by lysosomes or […]
