Identification of rat lung-specific microRNAs by micoRNA microarray: Valuable discoveries for the facilitation of lung research
Wang, Yang; Weng, Tingting; Gou, Deming; Chen, Zhongming; Chintagari, Narendranath Reddy; Liu, Lin (BioMed Central, 2007-01-24)Background: An important mechanism for gene regulation utilizes small non-coding RNAs called microRNAs (miRNAs). These small RNAs play important roles in tissue development, cell differentiation and proliferation, lipid ... -
MicroRNA and mRNA expression profiling in rat acute respiratory distress syndrome
Huang, Chaoqun; Xiao, Xiao; Chintagari, Narendranath Reddy; Breshears, Melanie; Wang, Yang; Liu, Lin (BioMed Central, 2014-07-28)Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by pulmonary epithelial injury and extensive inflammation of the pulmonary parenchyma. Systematic analyses of microRNA (miRNA) and mRNA expression ... -
Structure of a prophenoloxidase (PPO) from Anopheles gambiae provides new insights into the mechanism of PPO activation
Hu, Yingxia; Wang, Yang; Deng, Junpeng; Jiang, Haobo (BioMed Central, 2016-01-05)Background: Phenoloxidase (PO)-catalyzed melanization is a universal defense mechanism of insects against pathogenic and parasitic infections. In mosquitos such as Anopheles gambiae, melanotic encapsulation is a resistance ...
