“…These can originate from all the cells present in the mammary gland (Lasser et al., ), including epithelial and immune cells. Milk EVs could also be secreted by the bacteria colonizing the mammary gland or found in milk (Andreas et al., ; Le Doare et al., ; Tartaglia et al., ), which can also secrete small RNA sequences (Choi, Kim, Hong, & Lee, ; Choi, Kwon, Hong, & Lee, ) in outer membrane vesicles (Kulp & Kuehn, ) and transfer their nucleic acid content to human cells (Bitto et al., ). Therefore, it is most likely that milk is a complex carrier of a multitude of small EVs with different proteins, RNA, mRNA, and microRNA cargo originating from a multitude of cell types.…”
