#MALAT1
We are looking for a human MALAT1 overexpression plasmid.

Does any of you kind people have it?

We also revealed that the use of MALAT1 expression as a surrogate for nuclear content is a promising solution, particularly when raw intronic data is unavailable.

Finally something the reads wasted on those damn Malat1 transcripts are good for 🙏

Keep an eye to your sc dataset, 1)are there two clusters of same cell type one with and the other without #MALAT1 expression?
2)extreme values of #MALAT1 or #intronic reads is bad, null values indicate citosolic debris and extreme high values bare nuclei (dying/damaged cell)

METTL3 regulates α-KG-dependent mitophagy and apoptosis in nucleus pulposus cells through the MALAT1/miR-23c/IDH1 axis
METTL3 regulates α-KG-dependent mitophagy and apoptosis in nucleus pulposus cells through the MALAT1/miR-23c/IDH1 axis
Wu et al. reveal that METTL3-mediated m6A modification downregulates the lncRNA MALAT1, which sponges miR-23c to elevate IDH1 expression and α-ketoglutarate production. This axis promotes mitophagy and alleviates oxidative stress, thereby protecting against intervertebral disc degeneration.

Female Malat1-/- mice demonstrated altered Th2 cytokine expression, evidenced by a reduction in IL-10+ Th2 cells in both lung and spleen, while male Malat1-/- mice did not, revealing Malat1 as a novel determinant of immune sexual dimorphism. Read more: ow.ly/RgN050XQCz8.

Not checking nuclear markers like MALAT1 or intronic reads in your scRNA-seq data?🚨
We show their power to flag low-quality cells—even in top public datasets. It’s time to prioritize better QC for cleaner, more reliable genomics research!

A team from Universidad Andrés Bello (UNAB) used CRISPR to remove a tiny fragment of MALAT1 RNA, a molecule that plays a key role in gastric and breast cancer. By doing so, the researchers managed to destabilize the entire molecule and slow tumor progression.

Ever felt your scRNA-seq QC was solid, but something didn’t add up? MALAT1 and NEAT1 might be saying more than you think.
June 10, 2025 at 1:45 PM
Arkhipova & Drukker identified orthologs of NEAT1 and MALAT1 - the only lncRNAs that use the tRNA-processing machinery for maturation - across 545 mammals to investigate differences in function and evolutionary conservation.

Interesting BMC Genomics paper filters "nucleus-free" low-quality cells using the number of intronic reads. MALAT1 expression may provide a shortcut, but I would be wary of filtering out meaningful data 1/3 🩸🧬 @tmontsay.bsky.social @annaesteveco.bsky.social www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/39574...
