P140: The Roles of Micro RNA in Multiple Sclerosis Disease
As one of the most common neurological disabilities in young adults, Multiple sclerosis (MS) has characteristics of inflammation, demyelination, neuro-axonal damage, and progressive prolonged disability. The disease is clinically divided into three general categories according to response to treatment: Relapsing-Remitting MS (RRMS), Primary Progressive MS (PPMS) and Secondary Progressive MS (SP...
متن کاملEnhancement of RNA Interference Effect in P19 EC Cells by an RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase
Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon uses double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to specifically inhibit gene expression. The non-specific silencing caused by interferon response to dsRNA in mammalian cells limits the potential of utilizing RNAi to study gene function. Duplexes of 21-nucleotide short interfering dsRNA (siRNA) inhibit gene expression by RNAi. In some organisms, siRNA can als...
متن کاملNeuropathological Changes in Brain Cortex and Hippocampus in a Rat Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with progressive loss of cognitive abilities and memory loss. The aim of this study was to compare neuropathological changes in hippocampus and brain cortex in a rat model of AD. Methods: Adult male Albino Wistar rats (weighing 250-300 g) were used for behavioral and histopathological studies. The rats were randomly assigned t...
متن کاملRNA in brain disease: no longer just "the messenger in the middle".
RNA research has made great progress in recent years. A variety of unforeseen complexities have been identified, many with relevance to human brain disease. For example, neurologic illnesses may arise because of perturbations in distinct but interrelated tiers of RNA-based genetic regulation: pre-mRNA splicing; nonsplicing RNA modifications; and mRNA translational regulation. Furthermore, there...
متن کاملLow Prevalence of Borna Disease Virus RNA in Patients with Bipolar Major Depression and Schizophrenia in North of Iran
Background and Aims: Borna disease virus (BDV) is well known as a neurotropic virus, however, its role in human neurological diseases such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder is still unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the BDV genome in such patients in Golestan province, North of Iran. Materials and Methods: RNA was extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from...
