Long Non Coding RNAs, Lymphoma and COVID
Interesting paper on new potential biomarkers for aggressive lymphomas, LncRNAs.
It highlights the LncRNAs involved in lymphoma.
There are some similar LncRNAs dysregulated by COVID. >

It became the major allele in wolves, making them bigger than other canids, probably during the last ice age. However, the small allele never disappeared.
During the #domestication time, humans created the first small dogs using the ancestral small allele that still existing in wolves. We found it in a 9,500 year old dog sample. Today this small allele is the major allele in modern dogs, in 75% of small breeds < 15kg
Excited to share our story about an ancestral mutation in a #lncrna antisense of IGF1, that appeared over 50,000 years ago in #wolves, and that impacts modern #dogs and wild canids body size. It's out in @CurrentBiology. cell.com/current-biolog…
