All retroviruses, including HIV-1, display species-specific patterns of infection. The impaired
growth of these retroviruses in foreign and sometimes even in their natural hosts often stems …

The exchange of extracellular vesicles (EV) between immune cells plays a role in various
immune regulatory processes. EV are nano-sized lipid bilayer-enclosed structures that …

Semen contains relatively ill-defined regulatory components that likely aid fertilization, but
which could also interfere with defense against infection. Each ejaculate contains trillions of …

Cardiosphere‐derived cells (CDC s) reduce myocardial infarct size via secreted
extracellular vesicles (CDC‐EVs), including exosomes, which alter macrophage …

Neuronal ELAV-like (nELAVL) RNA binding proteins have been linked to numerous
neurological disorders. We performed crosslinking-immunoprecipitation and RNAseq on …

LINE1s occupy 17% of the human genome and are its only active autonomous mobile DNA.
L1s are also responsible for genomic insertion of processed pseudogenes and> 1 million …

APOBEC3G (A3G) and related deoxycytidine deaminases are potent intrinsic antiretroviral
factors. A3G is expressed either as an enzymatically active low-molecular-mass (LMM) form …

Ro60, also known as SS-A or TROVE2, is an evolutionarily conserved RNA-binding protein
that is found in most animal cells, approximately 5% of sequenced prokaryotic genomes and …

Major efforts are made to characterize the presence of microRNA (miRNA) and messenger
RNA in blood plasma to discover novel disease-associated biomarkers. MiRNAs in plasma …

YRNAs are a type of short, noncoding RNAs. A total of four different transcripts can be
distinguished, which are YRNA1, YRNA3, YRNA4 and YRNA5. All YRNAs are relatively …
