Formation of Muscle Fibers from Myoblasts01:13

Formation of Muscle Fibers from Myoblasts

4.9K
De novo myogenesis, or the formation of muscle fibers, begins during the early embryonic stages. The skeletal muscle is formed from somites– blocks of embryonic cell layers. The somites are further divided into dermatomes, myotomes, sclerotomes, and syndetomes. Among these, the myotomes give rise to muscle fibers.
Muscle progenitor cells (MPCs) are formed from the myotomes. MPCs express genes that encode the transcription factors Pax3 and Pax7. Along with Pax 3/7, other transcription...

lncRNA - Long Non-coding RNAs

8.6K
In humans, more than 80% of the genome gets transcribed. However, only around 2% of the genome codes for proteins. The remaining part produces non-coding RNAs which includes ribosomal RNAs, transfer RNAs, telomerase RNAs, and regulatory RNAs, among other types. A large number of regulatory non-coding RNAs have been classified into two groups depending upon their length – small non-coding RNAs, such as microRNA, which are less than 200 nucleotides in length, and long non-coding RNA...

Types of RNA01:20

Types of RNA

5.7K
Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNAs perform diverse functions and can be broadly classified as protein-coding or non-coding RNA. Non-coding RNAs play important roles in regulating gene expression in response to developmental and environmental changes. Non-coding RNAs in prokaryotes can be manipulated to develop more effective antibacterial drugs for human or animal use.

Alternative RNA Splicing02:18

Alternative RNA Splicing

21.1K
Alternative RNA splicing is the regulated splicing of exons and introns to produce different mature mRNAs from a single pre-mRNA. Unlike in constitutive splicing where a single gene produces a single type of mRNA, alternative splicing allows an organism to produce multiple proteins from a single gene and plays an important role in protein diversity.
There are five types of alternative RNA splicing that vary in the ways the pre-mRNA segments are removed or retained in the mature mRNA. The first...

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Molecular Biology
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Tendons are crucial for force transmission, but injuries significantly impact quality of life due to poor healing capacity.
  • Tendon injuries result from trauma, genetics, inflammation, aging, or overuse, leading to pain and disability.
  • Current treatments like injections and surgery have high failure rates, often due to adhesion formation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current research on non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in tendon injury.
  • To highlight the significant role of ncRNAs in tendon healing mechanisms.
  • To explore novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for tendon injuries based on ncRNAs.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of studies on non-coding RNAs and tendon injuries.
  • Analysis of research progress in understanding ncRNA functions in tendon healing.
  • Synthesis of findings on ncRNAs' potential in diagnostics and therapeutics.

Main Results:

  • Non-coding RNAs are increasingly recognized for their critical roles in tendon biology and injury.
  • ncRNAs influence key processes in tendon healing, including inflammation and tissue regeneration.
  • Emerging data suggests ncRNAs can be biomarkers and therapeutic targets for tendon disorders.

Conclusions:

  • Non-coding RNAs offer a promising avenue for understanding and treating tendon injuries.
  • Further research into ncRNAs can lead to improved functional recovery and patient quality of life.
  • Targeting ncRNAs may overcome limitations of current treatment modalities for tendon repair.
