Immune cells (NK and cytotoxic T cells) are activated by short-synthetic mRNA which binds to the ZC3H12D receptor and is transported to the nucleus where it induces the expression of GZMB, a key ...

In today’s rapidly evolving scientific landscape, eliminating barriers to progress is more critical than ever. Precision medicine and targeted therapies hold great promise but are dependent on the ...

WASHINGTON (AP) — So-called mRNA vaccines saved millions of lives during the COVID-19 pandemic — and now scientists are using that Nobel Prize-winning technology to try to develop vaccines and ...

A pandemic concentrates the mind wonderfully. Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic struck, government, academia, business, and the general public have demonstrated an intense interest in mRNA technologies ...

In principle, mRNA vaccines are ideal for health emergencies as they can be quickly mass produced using a template. The problem is that current cell-based template production methods take too long, ...
