Complementation of a human disease phenotype in vitro by intercellular mRNA transfer
2024-11-06
Abstract excerpt
There is growing evidence that full-length mRNAs undergo intercellular transfer through long, thin cytoplasmic connections called tunneling nanotubes (TNTs), but whether transferred mRNAs are translated and effect cellular changes post-transfer is unknown. Using multiple lines of evidence, we show that transferred mRNAs undergo translation and can fully complement the phenotype of genetic mutations in vitro . For...
