Exogenous Janus Kinase 617 Codon Influences Small Noncoding RNAs and Gene Expression in Ba/F3 Cells by Yi-Yang Chen, Ying-Hsuan Wang, Chih-Cheng Chen, Cih-En Huang, Chia-Chen Hsu, Shu-Huei Hsiao, Yu-Wei Leu

“…Patients with MPN have been shown to have dysregulation of noncoding RNAs, such as microRNA (miRNA) and PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA), although there is not any concrete proof that JAK2V617F alone is responsible for the aberrant regulation of miRNA and piRNA. Human wild type versus V617F-mutated JAK2 are expressed in mouse Ba/F3 cells, and the expressed small and total RNAs were subjected to next generation sequencing analysis to determine the direct induction. …”

CCN3: lactational bone booster by Nathan Xu, Kyle Yang, Mengjie Wang

“…Compelling evidence has been presented to show that (1) CCN3 expression in ARHERα/Kiss1 neurons fluctuates, almost exclusively appearing during lactation; (2) CCN3 stimulates mouse and human skeletal stem cell activity, increases bone remodeling and fracture repair in young and old mice of both sexes; (3) knockdown Ccn3 transcripts in the ARHKiss1 neurons in lactating dams causes devastating bone loss and failure to sustain progeny survival. …”
