Perhaps our boldest hypothesis… we propose a model for RNA Structural Memory propagation in @natcellbio.nature.com where RNA conformation is reshaped by stress, locked by RBPs, copied prion-like in condensates & passed across generations—all without altering DNA

How can abnormal small RNA biogenesis spark autoimmune disease? Our opinion @cp-trendsbiochem.bsky.social discuss a novel two-stage activation hypothesis that may explain why autoimmunity hits women harder, via small RNA-TLR7/8 interactions & augmented by autoantibodies.
