How do immune cells strike a balance, unleashing rapid attacks against pathogens or cancer, while avoiding damage to healthy ...
Cancer cells have softer membranes than healthy cells. New nanoparticles exploit this physical difference to fuse selectively ...
Genome-wide CRISPR knockout screens to identify cellular regulators of LNP-based mRNA vaccines. mRNAs encoding Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) were in vitro transcribed (IVT) and delivered to knockout ...
In a small clinical trial, customized mRNA vaccines against high-risk skin cancers appeared to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence and death by nearly 50 percent over five years when compared with ...
The tumor suppressor protein p53 plays a critical role in preventing cancer by regulating cell cycle, apoptosis, and genomic stability. However, mutations in the P53 gene are found in over 50% of ...
Vaccines using mRNA technology have been studied for decades, experts say. Over the last several days, the safety and efficacy of messenger RNA, or mRNA, vaccines have come under intense scrutiny. On ...
Researchers have developed a new microscopy technique to observe how ribosomes function in cells. With this method, they can monitor individual ribosomes as they convert mRNA into proteins. The ...
Researchers from the Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins Medicine Center for Nanomedicine—which designs nanotechnology-based ...
