In his new book, “The Catalyst,” Dr. Thomas Cech describes how mRNA in the COVID vaccines encodes the virus’s spike protein. The following is an excerpt from The Catalyst: RNA and the Quest to Unlock ...
Osaka, Japan – Just as a recipe contains the instructions needed to make a dish, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) sequences in the body contain the information needed to make proteins. Changes in the ...
A new study has produced a proof of principle for a new 'universal' means of treating COVID-19. Researchers demonstrated in a mouse model that it's possible to prompt the production of a protein that ...
RNA vaccines against Covid-19 have proven effective at reducing the severity of disease. However, a team of researchers at MIT is working on making them even better. By tweaking the design of the ...
COVID-19 RNA may induce monocytes to develop cancer-fighting properties, potentially shrinking tumors in certain metastatic cancers. Patients resistant to prior immunotherapy showed the most benefit ...
While targeted protein and RNA degradation are hot areas for R&D, the drugs developed so far come with limitations. Now, a new class with broader applications may not be far off. In a study published ...
In a recent study published on the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers conducted blood digital transcriptomics to determine the persistence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 ...
CAMBRIDGE, MA -- RNA vaccines against Covid-19 have proven effective at reducing the severity of disease. However, a team of researchers at MIT is working on making them even better. By tweaking the ...
