Long noncoding RNA found to quell inflammation
... 14 July 2016, by Jim Fessenden A long non-coding RNA (lincRNA) - called lincRNA- this brake, and the pro-inflammatory response is EPS - responsible for regulating innate immunity initiated. Mice that were lacking lincRNA-EPS has been identified by a team of scientists at the exhibited increased leve ...
