Mesenchymal stem cells in regenerative medicine applied to rheumatic diseases: role of secretome and exosomes.

abstract：:Adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) modification by the ADAR (adenosine deaminase that acts on RNA) enzymes perform the most common type of RNA editing in metazoans. ADARs use double stranded RNA as substrates but allow interruptions of bulges and loops in the structure. It is well known that these enzymes can use messenger...
