This study offers important insight into the pathogenic basis of intragenic frameshift deletions in the carboxy-terminal domain of MECP2, which account for some Rett syndrome cases, yet similar ...

mRNA, widely known from the COVID-19 vaccine, is not actually a "therapeutic agent," but a technology that delivers the blueprint for functional proteins in the body and induces therapeutic effects.

In a Phase 3 trial of more than 18,000 volunteers across three countries, an mRNA influenza vaccine from Pfizer has outperformed standard seasonal flu shots by 34.5%. It's yet another sign that this ...

Pfizer has released the full data from its phase 3 trial of an mRNA flu vaccine candidate, with the potential new shot demonstrating 34.5% greater efficacy compared to a control vaccine. Of 9,225 ...

Pfizer’s mRNA flu vaccine outperformed the standard flu shot in a Phase 3 clinical trial, according to results published Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine. The vaccine uses the same ...

Researchers at MIT have just developed a new lipid nanoparticle that super-enhances the effectiveness of the mRNA vaccine in mice to a hundred times its stand-alone effectiveness, thus offering ...

The mRNA COVID-19 vaccines might make some cancer treatments more effective. Lung cancer patients who received the vaccine within a few months of immunotherapy, which revs up the immune system, lived ...

COVID-19 mRNA vaccines create enough of an immunity boost to extend survival in certain types of lung and skin cancers, an analysis of more than 1,000 patient files showed. The scientific journal ...

Researchers found that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines significantly increased survival in lung and skin cancer patients undergoing immunotherapy. The vaccine appears to prime the immune system in a powerful, ...

Certain individuals with cancer were significantly more likely to survive if they received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine, researchers at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center reported. This ...

Covid vaccines may come with a tantalizing benefit that has nothing to do with the virus they’re designed to protect against: boosting the immune system to better fight tumors during cancer treatment.
