Abstract: Systems and methods for managing refresh rates of applications running on a display device are disclosed. A computing device is designed to monitor and slow/reduce refresh rates for some applications running on the display device, while also allowing other applications to run at a fast/increased refresh rate. Each application is associated with a target device (e.g., server). The computing device can regulate a continuous stream of data, allowing some applications to access the data, while limiting/preventing other applications from accessing the data. The applications with access to the data can run at the fast refresh rates, while the remaining applications update at the slow refresh rates. As a result, the applications running at the fast refresh rates allow a user viewing the display device to actively monitor the respective servers associated with the fast-running applications, while reducing network load based on the relatively slow-running applications.

Abstract: Herein, we describe the identification of a small molecule named Targapremir-210 that binds to the Dicer site of the miR-210 hairpin precursor. This interaction inhibits production of the mature miRNA, de-represses glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1-like enzyme (GPD1 L), a hypoxia-associated protein negatively regulated by miR-210, decreases HIF-1 a, and triggers apoptosis of triple negative breast cancer cells only under hypoxic conditions. Further, Targapremir-210 inhibits tumorigenesis in a mouse xenograft model of hypoxic triple negative breast cancer. We applied Chemical Cross-Linking and Isolation by Pull Down (Chem-CLIP) to study the cellular selectivity and the on- and off-targets of Targapremir-210. Targapremir-210 selectively recognizes the miR-210 precursor and can differentially recognize RNAs in cells that have the same target motif but have different expression levels, revealing this important feature for selectively drugging RNAs for the first time.
