Nucleoside-modified messenger RNA
Nucleoside-modified messenger RNA (modRNA) is a synthetic messenger RNA. modRNA is used to induce the production of a desired protein in certain cells. An important application is the development of mRNA vaccines. The first authorized were COVID-19 vaccines to address SARS-CoV-2. Other possible uses include the uses of modRNA for regeneration of damaged muscle tissue and cancer therapy.
About Nucleoside-modified messenger RNA in brief
Nucleoside-modified messenger RNA (modRNA) is a synthetic messenger RNA. modRNA is used to induce the production of a desired protein in certain cells. An important application is the development of mRNA vaccines. The first authorized were COVID-19 vaccines to address SARS-CoV-2. Other possible uses include the uses of modRNA for regeneration of damaged muscle tissue and cancer therapy. The Curevac vaccine uses unmodified RNA, but the curevac uses modRNA, but other possible uses for modRNA include the use of nanoparticles for cancer therapy and for heart muscle regeneration, for example.
