I agree that the characterization of rRNA in exosome samples is interesting, but do you think the current study justifies use of this protocol for biomarker applications?

For example, most of the genes selected for qPCR validation show high expression levels in several normal tissue types in BioGPS. Likewise, Figure 7 shows that most genes expressed in both cellular and e...

Perhaps it would help to deposit the data in a standard database, such as the SRA, ENA, etc?

To be fair, it looks like the peerJ policy only specifies specific databases for microarray data, but I think the policy should ideally also include sequencing dat...
