Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that play an important role in the regulation of gene expression. In addition to being encoded by the host cells, miRNAs are also encoded by certain DNA and RNA viruses, blurring the lines between host and viral genetic regulation. This duality allows miRNAs to assume both antiviral and proviral roles in the viral life cycle. Furthermore, miRNAs exert profound influence over immune responses, viral latency, host susceptibility to infections, cellular differentiations and pathways governing programmed cell death. In this comprehensive discussion, we delve into the current state of knowledge regarding miRNAs, including the diverse types of miRNAs, such as canonical and viral miRNAs, and explore their multifaceted roles in virus replication, pathogenesis, and immune modulation. This exploration enhances our understanding of the intricate interplay between viruses and their host organisms and encompasses various other RNA molecules that contribute to this dynamic landscape.

期刊介绍:
Gene Reports publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function and evolution of genes in all biological contexts, including all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as well as viruses. Gene Reports strives to be a very diverse journal and topics in all fields will be considered for publication. Although not limited to the following, some general topics include: DNA Organization, Replication & Evolution -Focus on genomic DNA (chromosomal organization, comparative genomics, DNA replication, DNA repair, mobile DNA, mitochondrial DNA, chloroplast DNA). Expression & Function - Focus on functional RNAs (microRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, mRNA splicing, alternative polyadenylation) Regulation - Focus on processes that mediate gene-read out (epigenetics, chromatin, histone code, transcription, translation, protein degradation). Cell Signaling - Focus on mechanisms that control information flow into the nucleus to control gene expression (kinase and phosphatase pathways controlled by extra-cellular ligands, Wnt, Notch, TGFbeta/BMPs, FGFs, IGFs etc.) Profiling of gene expression and genetic variation - Focus on high throughput approaches (e.g., DeepSeq, ChIP-Seq, Affymetrix microarrays, proteomics) that define gene regulatory circuitry, molecular pathways and protein/protein networks. Genetics - Focus on development in model organisms (e.g., mouse, frog, fruit fly, worm), human genetic variation, population genetics, as well as agricultural and veterinary genetics. Molecular Pathology & Regenerative Medicine - Focus on the deregulation of molecular processes in human diseases and mechanisms supporting regeneration of tissues through pluripotent or multipotent stem cells.
