Effects of plant transfer ribonucleic acids on interferon production
Abstract:
An optimal interferon (IFN) production was obtained at concentrations of 50 micrograms/ml poly I:C and 2000 micrograms/ml DEAE dextran in Lpa cells. It was shown that methionine initiator tRNA (tRNAiMet) in a dose 50 micrograms/ml or crude tRNA (tRNAc) applied to Lpa cell during the stages of IFN induction, IFN induction and synthesis, as well as during IFN synthesis resulted in a continuous IFN production for up to 24 hr. Exposure of the cells to 150 micrograms/ml tRNAiMet during the stages of IFN induction and IFN induction and synthesis caused total inhibition of IFN production. This effect was partially observed only after the high dose of tRNAc. Addition of a high dose of tRNAiMet or tRNAc to cells during the synthesis stage caused no inhibition but prolongation of IFN production.

RNA Interference
This process occurs naturally in cells, often through the activity of genomically-encoded microRNAs. Researchers can take advantage of this mechanism by introducing synthetic RNAs to deactivate specific genes for research or therapeutic purposes. For example, RNAi could be used...

siRNA - Small Interfering RNAs
In the cytoplasm, siRNA is processed from a double-stranded RNA, which comes from either endogenous DNA transcription or exogenous sources like a virus. This double-stranded RNA is then cleaved by the ATP-dependent...
