The Zebrafish model in dermatology: an update for clinicians by Irene Russo, Emma Sartor, Laura Fagotto, Anna Colombo, Natascia Tiso, Mauro Alaibac

“…Several studies have proved that there is a high level of similarity between human and zebrafish genomes, which encourages the use of zebrafish as a model for understanding human genetic disorders, including cancer. Interestingly, zebrafish skin shows several similarities to human skin, suggesting that this model organism is particularly suitable for the study of neoplastic and inflammatory skin disorders. …”

Alu Mobile Elements: From Junk DNA to Genomic Gems by Sami Dridi

“…Indeed, Alu RNAs have been shown to control mRNA processing at several levels, to have complex regulatory functions such as transcriptional repression and modulating alternative splicing and to cause a host of human genetic diseases. Alu RNAs embedded in Pol II transcripts can promote evolution and proteome diversity, which further indicates that these mobile retroelements are in fact genomic gems rather than genomic junks.…”

Maternal obesity increases hypothalamic miR-505-5p expression in mouse offspring leading to altered fatty acid sensing and increased intake of high-fat food. by Laura Dearden, Isadora C Furigo, Lucas C Pantaleão, L W P Wong, Denise S Fernandez-Twinn, Juliana de Almeida-Faria, Katherine A Kentistou, Maria V Carreira, Guillaume Bidault, Antonio Vidal-Puig, Ken K Ong, John R B Perry, Jose Donato, Susan E Ozanne

“…We demonstrate that targets of miR-505-5p are enriched in fatty acid metabolism pathways and overexpression of miR-505-5p decreased neuronal fatty acid metabolism in vitro. miR-505-5p targets are associated with increased BMI in human genetic studies. Intra-cerebroventricular injection of miR-505-5p in wild-type mice increased HFD intake, mimicking the phenotype observed in offspring exposed to maternal obesity. …”
