Abstract
newline In the intricate landscape of hematopoietic progenitor development, a complex framework of
newlineregulatory mechanisms orchestrates the dynamic changes in gene expression profiles. My
newlinethesis embarks on an investigation towards the identification novel mechanistic underpinnings
newlineimposed onto the intrinsic regulatory elements like micro RNAs and extrinsic
newlinemicroenvironmental cues that fine tune the expression of transcriptomic landscapes of
newlinedevelopmentally relevant cell type The Hematopoitic Progenitors .
newlineCentral to this exploration is the unveiling of the autophagy of microRNAs (miRNAs) that
newlinecontribute to the fine tuning of a cell s transcriptomic landscape. MiRNAs are small RNA
newlinemolecules that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression 1 . They are involved in various
newlinebiological processes, including development, differentiation, and disease progression 2 .
newlineUnderstanding the turnover of miRNAs is essential for unraveling their regulatory mechanisms
newlineand their impact on cellular processes and disease biology. While the biogenesis and
newlinemechanisms of action of miRNAs have been extensively studied, the turnover of miRNAs and
newlineits relationship with mRNA autophagy is an aspect that is yet to be fully deciphered.
newlineResearch on miRNA turnover has raised questions about the stability of miRNAs. Some studies
newlinesuggest that miRNAs are typically stable, while others propose that they are subject to active

newline. The turnover of miRNAs is a dynamic process that involves their degradation
newlineand clearance from the cell which in turn can impact their abundance and, consequently, their
newlineregulatory activity 5 . The thesis illuminates the intricate interplay of miRNAs undergoing
newlineautophagic degradation, thus unveiling a previously uncharted aspect of regulation in
newlinehematopoietic progenitor gene expression. This discovery underscores the intricate nature of
newlinecellular control mechanisms during the process hematopoietic amplification in the progenitor
