Designing potential siRNA molecules for silencing the gene of the nucleocapsid protein of Nipah virus: A computational investigation
Infect Genet Evol. 2022 May 27:105310. doi: 10.1016/j.meegid.2022.105310. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNipah virus (NiV), a zoonotic virus, engenders severe infections with noticeable complications and deaths in humans and animals. Since its emergence, it is frightening that this virus has been causing regular outbreaks in various countries, particularly Bangladesh, India, and Malaysia. Unfortunately, no efficient vaccine or drug is available to combat this baneful virus. It employs the nucleocapsid protein in its genetic material encapsidation, which is a crucial for viral replication. The small interfering RNAs (siRNAs)...

Silencing of hepsin and inosine 5-monophosphate dehydrogenase 2 by siRNA reduces prostate cancer cells proliferation
This study aimed to determine the transcript level of PCa-related genes, HPN and IMPDH2, in archived tissues. Their functional roles were further determined using an in vitro model of PCa. Total RNA extraction was done from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded PCa tissues, and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues acted as the control. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was performed to measure HPN and IMPDH2 expression. The functional assay was performed in a prostate cancer cell line (DU145) on these two genes by silencing their RNA. We discovered a significantly higher expression of IMPDH2 in PCa s...
