The quest for a vaccine against HIV has been going on for about 40 years — almost as long as the virus that causes AIDS has been known to scientists and the public. There has been some progress ...

People are still debating whether the mRNA from COVID-19 vaccines remains in the body longer than it should. Some say it ...

Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a subtype of RNA. An mRNA molecule carries a portion of the DNA code to other parts of the cell for processing. mRNA is created during transcription. During the transcription ...

A commonly used strategy in the development of messenger RNA (mRNA) medicine is based on the destruction of disease-causing mRNA. Achieving the opposite and stabilizing health-promoting mRNA is still ...

While you’re probably pretty familiar with DNA, it’s likely that RNA only made it onto your radar during the pandemic, thanks to Covid-19 vaccines such as the ones from Moderna and Pfizer. DNA is “the ...

Scientists have conducted breakthrough research that could lead to a universal cancer vaccine, revolutionizing how the ...

We also tested differences among RNA types: messenger RNA (mRNA), which carries short-lived instructions that tell cells how to make proteins, and ribosomal RNA (rRNA), which forms part of the cell's ...

Exsilio Therapeutics has launched with $82 million in series A funding. Exsilio uses lipid nanoparticles and messenger RNA (mRNA) to integrate whole corrective genes into “safe harbors” in the ...

Scientists at UCL have demonstrated how ribonucleic acid and amino acids could have spontaneously linked together four billion years ago, offering fresh insight into the origin of life on ...

A new vaccination could finally prove to be a long-acting cure to acne, stopping bacteria reproduction at its root. Trials proved a messenger RNA variant to be the most effective version of the ...
