Moderna's new flu vaccine, based on the same mRNA technology used in its COVID-19 shot, showed promising results in a major ...

The innate immune system is the body's first line of defense against pathogens and foreign substances. An essential component of this system are pattern recognition receptors, which recognize non-self ...

Ribosomes are tiny molecular machines inside all living cells that build proteins, and ribosome biogenesis is the complex, ...

A more effective vaccine technology may be on the horizon. In a new study in mice, researchers from the University of Copenhagen demonstrate that a simple addition to mRNA vaccines can significantly ...

Researchers have discovered a process that breaks down mRNA molecules in the human body particularly efficiently. This could be useful, for example, in the treatment of cancer.

This article explains HPV mRNA E6/E7, what it means if a test detects it, and the next steps a person can take. It also looks at when to contact a doctor and answers some frequently asked questions.

The simple replacement of linear by circular mRNA for infectious disease vaccines is an obvious first step in its therapeutic use, and is the aim of a number of development programs. However, ...

BERLIN — To date, mRNA vaccines have had their largest global presence in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. Intensive research is underway on many other potential applications for this vaccine ...

Transporting mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, called mRNA export, relies on protein complexes involving RNA helicases such as UAP56. Despite its near-identical nature, URH49 forms a ...
