Macrophages are influential members of the innate immune system that can be reversibly
polarized by different microenvironment signals. Cell polarization leads to a wide range of …

Abstract microRNAs (miRNAs) are suggested to play substantial roles in regulating the
development and various physiologic functions of the central nervous system (CNS). These …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small single-stranded RNAs belonging to a class of non-coding
RNAs with an average length of 18–22 nucleotides. Although not able to encode any …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel class of non-coding RNAs. They are single-stranded
RNA transcripts characterized with a closed loop structure making them resistant to …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a widely-studied class of non-coding RNAs characterized by their
short length (18-25 nucleotides). The precise functions of miRNAs are not well-elucidated; …

Ovarian cancer (OC) is among the most common human malignancies and the first cause of
deaths among gynecologic cancers. Early diagnosis can help improving prognosis in those …

New research has indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play critical roles in a
broad range of biological processes, including the pathogenesis of many complex human …

In nature, lectins are widely dispersed proteins that selectively recognize and bind to
carbohydrates and glycoconjugates via reversible bonds at specific binding sites. Many viral …

Cholesterol plays a significant role in stabilizing lipid or membrane rafts, which are specific
cellular membrane structures. Cholesterol is involved in numerous cellular processes …

Gliomas are the most lethal primary brain tumors in adults. These highly invasive tumors
have poor 5-year survival for patients. Gliomas are principally characterized by rapid …
