Competing Endogenous RNA: The Key to Posttranscriptional Regulation by Rituparno Sen, Suman Ghosal, Shaoli Das, Subrata Balti, Jayprokas Chakrabarti

“…It has recently been discovered that, apart from protein-coding ceRNAs, pseudogenes, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs act as miRNA “sponges” by sharing common MRE, inhibiting normal miRNA targeting activity on mRNA. These MRE sharing elements form the posttranscriptional ceRNA network to regulate mRNA expression. ceRNAs are widely implicated in many biological processes. …”

Association between exposure in the cement production industry and non-malignant respiratory effects: a systematic review by Anne Kristin Møller Fell, Karl Christian Nordby

“…Cohort studies reported a high yearly decline in FEV1/FVC ranging from 0.8% to 1.7% for exposed workers. 1 longitudinal study reported airflow limitation at levels of exposure comparable to ∼1 mg/m3 respirable and 3.7–5.4 mg/m3 total dust. A dose–response relationship between exposure and decline in lung function has only been shown in 1 cohort. 2 studies have detected small increases in FeNO levels during a work shift; 1 study reported signs of airway inflammation in induced sputum, whereas another did not detect an increase in hospitalisation rates.Conclusions Lack of power, adjustment for possible confounders and other methodological issues are limitations of many of the included studies. …”
