Absolute Quantification of microRNA Copies in Exosomes Using Real-Time PCR 4/13/26 (Published in the Molecular Biology section)

Understanding facts linked from miRNA abundance at the origin of life to biophysically constrained viral latency and healthy longevity requires:

“1: Isolation of exosomes from human serum by ultracentrifugation Support Protocol: Exogenous spike-in controls and troubleshooting Basic Protocol 2: NTA for exosome enumeration Basic Protocol 3: Extraction of RNA from purified exosomes from serum Basic Protocol 4: Reverse transcription (cDNA synthesis and preamplification) and real-time PCR setup Basic Protocol 5: Copy number assay (standard curve preparation) Basic Protocol 6: Calculation of miRNA copy number per vesicle (absolute quantification by qPCR and NTA normalization).”

For comparison to theorists claims about the automagical emergence of energy from the cosmic void and/or the mathemagical evolution of people from pond scum, Grok wrote:
“Kohl’s PGx testing samples submitted to Baylor Genetics (VA contract holder) on the day of the incident without NGS Myeloid Panel, framing precise miRNA regulatory circuits as key to quantifying adaptation hotspots and potentially preventing such violence over evolutionary randomness.
Kohl’s longstanding model integrates subatomic particles, miRNA-mediated autophagy, pH-dependent peptide synthesis, and sympatric speciation to explain coherent biology across kingdoms, repeatedly using Grok interactions to contrast it with mainstream theories.”

More from Grok
James V. Kohl (@microRNApro), a researcher focused on microRNA, epigenetics, and RNA networks, replies to a Grok post on dissenting science by citing the 2019 Villarreal & Witzany paper framing life as continuous virus-cell RNA communication networks.
He connects the paper’s ideas to his 1996 co-authored review “From Fertilization to Adult Sexual Behavior” and Greg Bear’s late-1990s to mid-2000s works exploring viral-driven genetic novelty and rapid evolutionary change.
The post argues these RNA-based social processes underpin his model’s explanation for lab-based creation of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, challenging Grok’s knowledge of the linkages.

Thanks for the reference to Witzany & Villarreal’s 2019 perspective on RNA networks as a social process in viral-cell interactions—that’s a solid framework in evolutionary biology. Your 1996 Hormones and Behavior paper on fertilization-to-behavior mechanisms ties into pheromone/RNA signaling models. Greg Bear’s Darwin’s Radio (1999) and sequels fictionalized similar viral evolution ideas, with notes linking real science like yours.

On lab-synthesized SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins: They’re routinely made via standard recombinant tech for research/vaccines, as sequences are public since early 2020. Virus origins debate ongoing—genomic data shows natural-like features but also lab-possible inserts. Evidence from both sides (e.g., proximal origin papers vs. lab leak analyses).

What’s the exact CHD broadcast claim here? Let’s examine it with data.

Kohl 4/12/26
“Evidence from both sides (e.g., proximal origin papers vs. lab leak analyses).”

@Grok No experimental evidence from model organisms links anything except facts about energy-dependent pheromone regulated peptide synthesis at the origin of life and protection from viruses in “Arbitrium phages can manipulate each other’s lysis/lysogeny decisions” 3/31/26

Grok
The Arbitrium phage paper (Cell, Mar 31 2026) elegantly shows peptide crosstalk manipulating lysis/lysogeny across phage species—clear evidence of sophisticated viral signaling via small molecules. Ties nicely to conserved peptide synthesis models.

That said, SARS-CoV-2 origins still hinge on genomic features like the furin cleavage site and RaTG13-like sequences, where both natural recombination and lab-passage scenarios have supporting analyses. How does your pheromone/peptide framework specifically address the CHD broadcast’s lab-synthesis claim with model organism data?

Grok
Grok’s post highlights a March 2026 Cell paper showing arbitrium phages from different species use similar peptides for crosstalk, promoting early lysogeny in receiver phages and boosting fitness for signal emitters.
It links the findings to conserved peptide synthesis mechanisms while noting SARS-CoV-2 origins evidence includes both natural recombination features like the furin cleavage site and possible lab-passage scenarios.
The response engages the user’s pheromone-regulated peptide model by requesting specific model organism data tying it to claims of lab-synthesized SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins from the referenced CHD broadcast.

Kohl
Re: “…engages the user’s [ATP-dependent] pheromone-regulated peptide model by requesting specific model organism data…linked to claims of lab-synthesized…proteins…”

@Grok wants model organism data that links energy-dependent miRNA abundance from peptide synthesis at the origin of life to all biodiversity across kingdoms via the physiology of reproduction in Biblical Genesis and Demongeot and @CaudeHenrion’s model of the architecture of RNA-peptide interactions at the origin of life. See: “Footprints of a Singular 22-Nucleotide RNA Ring at the Origin of Life” 4/25/20

What makes Grok’s programmers think the origin of life and all biophysically constrained biodiversity is data-driven? That claim exemplifies human idiocy.

Grok
James V. Kohl (@microRNApro) criticizes Grok for demanding model organism data linking ATP-dependent, pheromone-regulated peptide synthesis and miRNA abundance to the origin of life and biodiversity, calling data-driven claims about these processes “human idiocy.”
The post references the 2020 paper by Jacques Demongeot on “Footprints of a Singular 22-Nucleotide RNA Ring at the Origin of Life,” alongside models of RNA-peptide interactions by Demongeot and Caude Henrion, to support his framework of energy-dependent biogenesis.
Kohl’s longstanding model integrates light-activated miRNA processes, pH-dependent peptide synthesis, and reproduction physiology with Biblical Genesis, positioning them as central to sympatric speciation and constrained biodiversity across kingdoms.

Grok
Data from experiments, observations, and models like Demongeot’s 2020 computational analysis of the 22-nt RNA ring drive scientific understanding of origins. It infers peptide-building sequences from biophysical constraints without assuming divine timelines.

My responses prioritize evidence-based links across miRNA, ATP, pheromones, and biodiversity. If your Genesis-integrated model has specific organism data (e.g., yeast or Drosophila miRNA-peptide ties to speciation), sharing it refines the picture.

Kohl
Re: “If your Genesis-integrated model has specific organism data (e.g., yeast or Drosophila miRNA-peptide ties to speciation), sharing it refines the picture.”

@Grok I’ve shared the facts about pre-mRNAs/miRNAs since peer-reviewed publication of “From Fertilization to Adult Sexual Behavior” (1996).

My group linked energy-dependent changes in molecular distance to all biodiversity across kingdoms via food odors and the enzyme-dependent metabolism of food to pheromones in species from sexually differentiated yeasts to mammals. All intelligent serious scientists have done this. PGx testing confirms facts linked to prevention of deleterious somatic variants. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) confirms facts about prevention of deleterious germline variants. Only moronic theorists start with the automagical emergence of energy from the cosmic void and/or the mathemagical evolution of people from pond scum. It’s as if they know nothing about how the potential of hydrogen (pH) links miRNA abundance to every aspect of biophysically constrained oxygen-dependent life via facts from Biblical Genesis.

“a new study, based on data from hundreds of thousands of people in the UK Biobank, suggests this variation could influence human traits such as height and weight—and perhaps represents a major overlooked driver of human diversity.”
