Worms eating miRNA expressing bacteria so that their gene expression altered.Problems of g. modified food?

Question

Then what are the possible dangers of eating genetically modified foods, or releasing/production of bacteria to the environment that have genetic alterations targeting human gen expression and living in human intestinal lining or internal linings of digestive truck

There is a mechanism discovered at the gene expression level called RNA interference by miRNA and siRNAs. These are small RNAs and activate the degradation of target mRNA or cause inhibibition of translation of mRNA so that gene expression negatively affected. There is possibility that what we eat can affect the gene expression and cause modification at the genomic and epigenmic level, thus there may be adverse effects who eat genetically modified food or subject to bacterial organisms with gene modifications.

Answer 1

I don't quite understand your question. The primary risk of genetically modified foods is that we don't know the results. We are playing Russian Roulette without even knowing the number of rounds in the revolver.

Answer 2

Large agri-business companies will say they are, but I don't believe it. I've heard of studies where genetic code that was inserted in corn was found in breast cancers in a university study and the company that owned the genes (monsanto) said they weren't allowed to research their product (the cancer's genes). Also, a lot of the 'round-up ready' strains -could- be safe to eat, but even if they are, the whole reason they are modified is to allow you to spray the field with copious amounts of potent toxins to kill everything but the crop. This is not ecologically sound and the foods will have more pesticides in them than normal foods. Super weeds will result that do not respond to normal herbicides. Also, they are designed to not reproduce so the farmer becomes a slave to the company that sells the seeds. Plus they are aggressively attacking farmers who are unwittingly winding up with genetically modified crops on their farms and forcing them into contracts to buy seed because of the intellectual property rights. Try not to eat GMO if you can. Unfortunately there is no labeling requirement.
