Tenascin-C is a large extracellular matrix glycoprotein with complex, not yet fully unveiled roles. Its context- and structure-dependent modus operandi renders tenascin-C a puzzling protein. Since its discovery ∼40 years ago, research into tenascin-C... Read More about A virological view of tenascin-C in infection.

miR-155-3p: processing by-product or rising star in immunity and cancer? (2022)
Journal Article
Dawson, O., & Piccinini, A. M. (2022). miR-155-3p: processing by-product or rising star in immunity and cancer?. Open Biology, 12(5), 843-854. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsob.220070

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key players in gene regulation that target specific mRNAs for degradation or translational repression. Each miRNA is synthesized as a miRNA duplex comprising two strands (5p and 3p). However, only one of the two strands becomes...
