Cross-kingdom gene regulation widely occurs in nature through small (s)RNAs or protein-encoding genes. Examples of plant-derived miRNAs that are advantageous for human health have recently been reported. Mining plant-specialized gene resources for similar cross-kingdom gene communications may lead to the identification of further plant-derived therapeutic agents that can improve human health globally.
