A noncanonical role of roX RNAs in autosomal epigenetic repression by Jianjian Li, Shuyang Xu, Zicong Liu, Liuyi Yang, Zhe Ming, Rui Zhang, Wenjuan Zhao, Huipai Peng, Jeffrey J. Quinn, Manyin Wu, Yushan Geng, Yuying Zhang, Jiazhi He, Minghai Chen, Nan Li, Ning-Yi Shao, Qing Ma

“…While roX RNAs are recognized for their role in sex-chromosome dosage compensation, ensuring balanced expression of X-linked genes in both sexes, their potential influence on autosomal gene regulation remains unexplored. Here, using an integrative multi-omics approach, we show that roX RNAs not only govern the X chromosome but also target genes on autosomes that lack male-specific lethal (MSL) complex occupancy, together with Polycomb repressive complexes (PRCs). …”

Microbial metabolites and immune modulation by Hassan Ghasemi

“…Propionate, another SCFA, has been linked to the inhibition of histone deacetylases, which are involved in gene regulation, further supporting anti-inflammatory pathways.3,4 These metabolites also modulate macrophage function by promoting a shift toward an anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype, a process essential for resolving inflammation and facilitating tissue repair.5 Additionally, they enhance gut barrier integrity by upregulating proteins involved in epithelial tight junctions, reducing the translocation of harmful microbial components into systemic circulation and thereby mitigating systemic inflammation.6 Secondary bile acids, produced through the microbial biotransformation of primary bile acids synthesized in the liver, exhibit immunomodulatory properties. …”
