Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked hereditary disease characterized by
progressive muscle wasting due to modifications in the DMD gene (exon deletions …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) constitute a family of transcripts with unique structures and still
largely unknown functions. Their biogenesis, which proceeds via a back-splicing reaction, is …

Skeletal muscle myogenesis and injury-induced muscle regeneration contribute to muscle
formation and maintenance. As myogenic stem cells, skeletal muscle satellite cells have the …

The muscle-specific long noncoding RNA linc-MD1 was shown to be expressed during early
phases of muscle differentiation and to trigger the switch to later stages by acting as a …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive and fatal muscle degenerating
disease caused by a dystrophin deficiency. Effective suppression of the primary pathology …

Myogenesis is a highly regulated process that involves the conversion of progenitor cells
into multinucleated myofibers. Besides proteins and mi RNA s, long noncoding RNA s (lnc …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of RNA produced during pre-mRNA splicing that are
emerging as new members of the gene regulatory network. In addition to being spliced in a …

The knowledge about non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) is rapidly increasing with new data
continuously emerging, regarding their diverse types, applications, and roles. Particular …

Transcriptome analysis allowed the identification of new long noncoding RNAs differentially
expressed during murine myoblast differentiation. These transcripts were classified on the …

RNA is likely to be the most rediscovered macromolecule in biology. Periodically, new non-
canonical functions have been ascribed to RNA, such as the ability to act as a catalytic …
