HOMOLOGOUS FUNCTIONALITY. “A high degree of parallelism is found in the molecular basis of miRNA biogenesis and action in plants and animals. Recent studies interestingly suggest a potential cross-kingdom action of plant-derived miRNAs, through dietary intake, in regulating mammalian gene expression…the source and scope of plant miRNAs detected in mammalian specimens remain controversial.”
