Could baby’s first bacteria take root before birth?
https://www.Nature.com/articles/d41586-018-00664-8 Interesting discussion of the controversy around detecting trace exogenous sequences in human tissues. Perhaps relevant to #exRNA?

Invest in Exosomes Before Wall Street Does

James McCullough, chief executive at privately held Exosome
Diagnostics, appropriately has dubbed exosomes as “the body’s Federal Express system.” Perhaps more succinctly, Dr. Douglas Taylor of Exosome Sciences, a subsidiary of Aethlon Medical (OTCBB:AEMD), has said that exosomes are akin to the “Twitter of cells” because of the messages they deliver from cell to cell.

The RNA in cells is far more mobile than we thought (Image: Renaud Vigourt)
Far from staying put, RNA – the less famous cousin of DNA – can roam far afield, carrying information to other cells in the body and even to other animals
UNDER the soil of the cornfield, the rootworm larvae emerge from their eggs and crawl in search of roots to munch on. But their mother chose the wrong field to lay her eggs in. There’s something special about the maize here – it’s armed with a smart weapon designed to target the rootworms.
As the larvae feed, this weapon is released from the plant and enters their gut cells. There it halts production of a vital protein by blocking one specific gene. In the hours that follow, this “gene silencing” weapon spreads to other cells in the larvae’s bodies. At first there is no …

Use of ontologies in RNAseq data analysis
December 16, 2013came across this paper: http://genomebiology.com/content/11/2/R14, which uses GO for RNA-seq data analysis
looks interesting – GoSeq !
Interesting review on exRNA
October 2, 2013mostly focussed on microRNAs, but it goes into the role of exRNAs on cancer:
