A Novel Mechanism for GlycoRNA Regulating VEGF Signaling
Scientists have discovered a class of RNA modified with sugar molecules (GlycoRNA) on the cell surface. These RNAs act like "molecular sponges," adsorbing the pro-angiogenic factor VEGF-A and thus precisely controlling blood vessel development. This discovery rewrites our understanding of extracellular RNA function, opening up new avenues for treating cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Background: When […]
