Regulation of translation is essential for the diverse biological processes involved in development. Particularly, mammalian oocyte development requires the precisely controlled translation of maternal transcripts to coordinate meiotic and early embryo progression while transcription is silent. It has been recently reported that key components of mRNA translation control are short and long noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). We found that the ncRNABrain cytoplasmic 1 (BC1) has a role in the fully grown germinal vesicle (GV) mouse oocyte, where is highly expressed in the cytoplasm associated with polysomes. Overexpression of BC1 in GV oocyte leads to a minute decrease in global translation with a significant reduction of specific mRNA translation via interaction with the Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP). BC1 performs a repressive role in translation only in the GV stage oocyte without forming FMRP or Poly(A) granules. In conclusion, BC1 acts as the translational repressor of specific mRNAs in the GV stage via its binding to a subset of mRNAs and physical interaction with FMRP. The results reported herein contribute to the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of developmental events connected with maternal mRNA translation.

Interleukin-1α (IL-1α) is a dual-function proinflammatory mediator. In addition to its role in the canonical IL-1 signaling pathway, which employs membrane-bound receptors, a growing body of evidence shows that IL-1α has some additional intracellular functions. We identified the interaction of IL-1α with the tumor suppressor p53 in the nuclei and cytoplasm of both malignant and noncancerous mammalian cell lines using immunoprecipitation and the in situ proximity ligation assay (PLA). This interaction was enhanced by treatment with the antineoplastic drug etoposide, which suggests a role for the IL-1α•p53 interaction in genotoxic stress.
