    microRNA-mediated regulation of microRNA machinery controls cell fate decisions

    Qiuying Liu, Mariah K Novak ... Wenqian Hu
    Genetic and biochemical analyses reveal that two stem-cell-specific microRNAs control stem cell fate decisions between pluripotency and differentiation through repressing Ago2, a key component of the microRNA machinery.

    MicroRNAs mediate precise control of spinal interneuron populations to exert delicate sensory-to-motor outputs

    Shih-Hsin Chang, Yi-Ching Su ... Jun-An Chen
    The miR-34/449 family is abundantly expressed in the central nervous system, and fine-tunes optimal numbers of spinal interneurons to ensure sensory-motor circuit outputs.

    miRNA profile is altered in a modified EAE mouse model of multiple sclerosis featuring cortical lesions

    Nicola S Orefice, Owein Guillemot-Legris ... Giulio G Muccioli
    A novel EAE model featuring cortical lesions and an autoimmune heterogeneity, two key parameters missing in the classical model, allows for insights in disease pathogenesis.

    CED-3 caspase acts with miRNAs to regulate non-apoptotic gene expression dynamics for robust development in C. elegans

    Benjamin P Weaver, Rebecca Zabinsky ... Min Han
    A broadly used gene expression regulatory mechanism inactivates targets by CED-3-caspase-mediated proteolysis and works in parallel to miRNAs for diverse non-apoptotic developmental functions.

    Tumor elimination by clustered microRNAs miR-306 and miR-79 via noncanonical activation of JNK signaling

    Zhaowei Wang, Xiaoling Xia ... Tatsushi Igaki
    miR-306 and miR-79 selectively eliminate JNK-activated tumors, providing a new microRNA-based strategy against cancer.

    Regulation of rice root development by a retrotransposon acting as a microRNA sponge

    Jungnam Cho, Jerzy Paszkowski
    Retrotransposon-derived messenger RNA plays a critical role in rice root development via sequestration of miR171, which suggests a novel trans-acting regulation by transposable elements.

    Cotranslational microRNA mediated messenger RNA destabilization

    Trinh To Tat, Patricia A Maroney ... Timothy W Nilsen
    MicroRNAs stimulate the decay of targeted mRNAs while they are associated with translating ribosomes.

    miR-125-chinmo pathway regulates dietary restriction-dependent enhancement of lifespan in Drosophila

    Manish Pandey, Sakshi Bansal ... Geetanjali Chawla
    miR-125 functions as a potential dietary restriction mimetic by promoting longevity through regulation of fat metabolism.

    MicroRNA-218 instructs proper assembly of hippocampal networks

    Seth R Taylor, Mariko Kobayashi ... Giordano Lippi
    MicroRNA-218 is required in both excitatory and inhibitory neurons of the developing hippocampus to regulate intrinsic and network excitability.
