Can the weakened immune systems of older individuals be rejuvenated? Researchers from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), the HI-STEM institute, and the Broad Institute have demonstrated that ...
Since addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, mRNA vaccines have risen as a promising tool for treating a broad range of diseases, such as cancer and genetic disorders. To be effective, foreign mRNA in ...
A new study has discovered an unprecedented pathway producing telomerase RNA from a protein-coding messenger RNA (mRNA). For the very first time, a study led by Julian Chen and his group in Arizona ...
A team of researchers led by Dr. Kim V. Narry, director of the Center for RNA Research at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), has uncovered a key cellular mechanism that affects the function of ...
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 ...
Myocarditis is recognized as a rare but serious adverse reaction to messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccination against COVID-19.
