Nanoparticle-based artificial RNA silencing machinery for antiviral therapy.
RNA interference is a fundamental gene regulatory mechanism that is mediated by the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). Here we report that an artificial nanoparticle complex can effectively mimic the function of the cellular RISC machinery for inducing target RNA cleavage. Our results show that a specifically designed nanozyme for the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) can actively cleave ...
متن کاملSilencing Viral MicroRNA as a Novel Antiviral Therapy?
Viruses are intracellular parasites that ensure their existence by converting host cells into viral particle producing entities or into hiding places rendering the virus invisible to the host immune system. Some viruses may also survive by transforming the infected cell into an immortal tumour cell. MicroRNAs are small non-coding transcripts that function as posttranscriptional regulators of ge...
متن کاملRNA silencing and antiviral defense in plants.
Much progress has been made recently in identifying the molecular components of RNA silencing in plants, and in understanding their roles in the biogenesis of small interfering RNAs and microRNAs, in RNA-directed DNA methylation, and in RNA-mediated antiviral defense. However, many crucial questions remain unanswered. What are the molecular bases of sense and antisense transgene-mediated silenc...
متن کاملPhenylbutyrate increases activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex
Altered metabolism is an important hallmark of cancer cells and confers them a selective advantage for survival and proliferation. Metabolism in cancer cells is shifted towards glycolysis and decreased dependence on mitochondrial glucose oxidation, a phenomenon known as ‘Warburg effect’ (aerobic glycolysis). Lactate, the end product of glycolysis, is produced in large excess by cancer cells tha...
متن کاملCurcumin Shows Antiviral Properties against Norovirus.
Phytochemicals provide environmentally friendly and relatively inexpensive natural products, which could potentially benefit public health by controlling human norovirus (HuNoV) infection. In this study, 18 different phytochemicals were evaluated for antiviral effects against norovirus using murine norovirus (MNV) as a model for norovirus biology. Among these phytochemicals, curcumin (CCM) was ...
