Cells in the body have to move around in order to do their jobs. During development, for instance, cells are distributed to create and grow tissue. And in the event of an immune response, different ...

Most vaccines contain an infectious pathogen or a part of it, but mRNA vaccines deliver the genetic instructions for our cells to make viral or bacterial proteins themselves. Our immune system ...

Messenger RNA, or mRNA, vaccines work by instructing a small number of a person’s cells to make specific proteins. In the case of the approved mRNA vaccines for COVID-19, the cells make spike protein ...

South Korean researchers have, for the first time in the world, uncovered how messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccines enter human cells, function inside the body, and are blocked by certain ...

Katalin Karikó and Dr. Drew Weissman, American scientists whose long collaboration has revolutionized the making of vaccines and raised the prospect of new treatments for a range of afflictions, were ...

COVID-19 mRNA vaccines may do more than just protect against the coronavirus - they may also help the body fight cancer. In ...

Patients with advanced lung or skin cancer who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine within 100 days of starting immunotherapy ...

Groundbreaking research reveals mRNA COVID-19 vaccines may significantly boost cancer immunotherapy success. Patients ...

Cancer patients who got an mRNA COVID vaccine within a few months of their immunotherapy lived longer than those who did not, health records show.

Researchers found that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines significantly increased survival in lung and skin cancer patients undergoing ...

Some scientists instead believe Dsup acts like a shield. In this model, Dsup coats and physically blocks radiation from striking DNA. Others think it boosts the cell’s repair machinery, fixing damage ...
