A Korean 60 years ago claimed that he discovered a third circulatory system other than blood and lymph, which carries particles of genetic material. And about 10 years ago, this was actually documented to not the third circulatory system, but the fact that there are very small particles of nucleic acids circulating in the blood and lymph carrying genetic information to repair cells or change their functions. The particles are so small that people examining blood under microscopes just considered it to be sort of dust in the background. But with proper magnification, they see that there are these micro vesicles, they call, which bud off from the surface of cells or exosomes, some of them are called. They carry both DNA and RNA and proteins and other parts of cells that act as signals, for example, between a working organ like the lungs and the turnover of cells in the bone marrow that are producing stem cells and immune cells and so on. So all of our organs are communicating with each other through these little particles that are about the size of viruses and
