Abstract
Exosomes are extracellular vesicles, measuring 40-160 nm in diameter, that are released by many cell types and tissues, including adipose tissue. Exosomes are critical mediators of intercellular communication and their contents are complex and diverse. In recent years, accumulating evidence has proved that multiple adipose tissue-derived exosomal noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), play pivotal roles in the pathogenesis of diverse metabolic diseases, such as obesity. In this narrative review, we focus on the adipose tissue-derived exosomal ncRNAs, especially exosomal miRNAs, and their dysregulation in multiple types of metabolic diseases. A deeper understanding of the role of adipose tissue-derived exosomal ncRNAs may help provide new diagnostic and treatment methods for metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Maternally Expressed at 31B (Me31B), an evolutionarily conserved ATP-dependent RNA helicase, plays an important role in the development of the germline across diverse animal species. Its cellular functionality has been posited as a translational repressor, participating in various RNA metabolism pathways to intricately regulate the spatiotemporal expression of RNAs. Despite its evident significance, the precise role and mechanistic underpinnings of Me31B remain insufficiently understood. This article endeavors to comprehensively review historic and recent research on Me31B, distill the major findings, discern generalizable patterns in Me31B's functions across different research contexts, and provide insights into its fundamental role and mechanism of action. The primary focus of this article centers on elucidating the role of Drosophila Me31B within the germline, while concurrently delving into pertinent research on its orthologs within other species and cellular systems.

Abstract
Synaptic function is modulated by local translation of mRNAs that are transported to distal portions of axons and dendrites. The Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is broadly expressed across cell types, almost exclusively as a nuclear non-coding RNA. We found that in differentiating neurons, a portion of Malat1 RNA redistributes to the cytoplasm. Depletion of Malat1 from neurons stimulated expression of particular pre- and post- synaptic proteins, implicating Malat1 in their regulation. Neuronal Malat1 is localized to both axons and dendrites in puncta that co-stain with Staufen1 protein, similar to neuronal granules formed by locally translated mRNAs. Ribosome profiling of mouse cortical neurons identified ribosome footprints within a region of Malat1 containing short open reading frames. The upstream-most reading frame (M1) of the Malat1 locus was linked to the GFP coding sequence in mouse ES cells. When these gene-edited cells were differentiated into glutamatergic neurons, the M1-GFP fusion protein was expressed. Antibody staining for the M1 peptide confirmed its presence in wildtype neurons, and showed enhancement of M1 expression after synaptic stimulation with KCL. Our results indicate that Malat1 serves as a cytoplasmic coding RNA in the brain that is both modulated by and modulates synaptic function.

Abstract
RNA granules are dynamic entities controlling the spatiotemporal distribution and translation of RNA molecules. In neurons, a variety of RNA granules exist both in the soma and in cellular processes. They contain transcripts encoding signaling and synaptic proteins as well as RNA-binding proteins causally linked to several neurological disorders. In this review, we highlight that neuronal RNA granules exhibit properties of biomolecular condensates that are regulated upon maturation and physiological aging and how they are reversibly remodeled in response to neuronal activity to control local protein synthesis and ultimately synaptic plasticity. Moreover, we propose a framework of how neuronal RNA granules mature over time in healthy conditions and how they transition into pathological inclusions in the context of late-onset neurodegenerative diseases.
