The long non-coding RNA Cerox1 is a post transcriptional regulator of mitochondrial complex I catalytic activity by Tamara M Sirey, Kenny Roberts, Wilfried Haerty, Oscar Bedoya-Reina, Sebastian Rogatti-Granados, Jennifer Y Tan, Nick Li, Lisa C Heather, Roderick N Carter, Sarah Cooper, Andrew J Finch, Jimi Wills, Nicholas M Morton, Ana Claudia Marques, Chris P Ponting

“…Cerox1 function is conserved across placental mammals: human and mouse orthologues effectively modulate complex I enzymatic activity in mouse and human cells, respectively. Cerox1 is the first lncRNA demonstrated, to our knowledge, to regulate mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and, with miR-488-3p, represent novel targets for the modulation of complex I activity.…”

Associations of Body Mass Index, Motor Performance, and Perceived Athletic Competence with Physical Activity in Normal Weight and Overweight Children by Kyle M. Morrison, John Cairney, Joe Eisenmann, Karin Pfeiffer, Dan Gould

“…Children who are overweight and obese display lower physical activity levels than normal weight peers. Measures of weight status, perceived motor competence, and motor skill performance have been identified as potential correlates explaining this discrepancy. 1881 children (955 males; 926 females; 9.9 years) were assessed as part of the Physical Health Activity Study Team project. …”
