mRNA is the set of instructions by which cells make all proteins and send them to various parts of the body. Using mRNA as a medicine is a fundamentally different approach than treating disease with other drug classes. mRNA medicines take advantage of normal biological processes to express proteins and create a desired therapeutic effect. This enables the potential treatment of a broad spectrum of diseases, many of which cannot be addressed with current technologies. mRNA has the potential to transform…
