However, in contrast, many translational evidence indicated that excessive consumption of bovine milk and continuous exposure of these exosomal microRNAs may be responsible for chronic inflammatory diseases of contemporary societies.

In this study, flesh of nectarine (Shuguang) was used to determine the difference in transcriptional data before and after chilling injury under storage. In addition, genes responses involved in nectarine acclimation to cold stress were also explored. Results of the current study showed that nectarine was found to be more susceptible to chilling injury during storage at 5°C than at 0°C, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were concentrated in the late stage of low-temperature storage where chilling injury symptoms appeared at the end of the experiment. The key genes related to low-temperature response were associated with post-harvest biological processes. DEGs were annotated on the metabolic pathways of cold regulation signal transduction, cold resistance physiological metabolism and cold resistance-related protein synthesis. Moreover, the expression of genes related to cold stress such as plant hormone signal transduction element such as Auxin-responsive protein, transcription factors responding to cold stress such as WRKY transcription factor and genes related to maintaining membrane stability and regulating physiological metabolism such as proline dehydrogenase was more pronounced when nectarine was stored at 5°C than at 0°C.
