There are many molecules with therapeutic potential, but it can be a challenge to deliver them to the right places at the ...

Many people follow the golden rules of avoiding direct sunlight between the hours of noon and 3 p.m., staying in […] ...

This study is the first to demonstrate that certain tRNA introns influence gene expression. Scientists have discovered that ...

So the textbooks say. But in this study we were surprised to learn that this is a result of damage to the RNA, not the DNA that causes the acute effects of sunburn," says Assistant Professor Anna ...

UMD researchers have discovered key mechanisms in gene regulation that could improve the design of RNA-based medicines.

RNA-based medicines are one of the most promising ways to fight human disease, as demonstrated by the recent successes of RNA ...

Two human cells making RNA made visible by the bioluminescent lantern in pink (middle image). On the left, the same cells making a fluorescent protein that’s distributed evenly throughout the two ...

RNA plays an important role in this inactivation process. Specifically, Xist RNA, a long noncoding RNA molecule, is responsible for crumpling up one copy of an X chromosome in each female cell.

Preclinical studies have shown their potential to reduce inflammation and modulate immune responses in diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.

To learn about the progress being made in the RNA therapeutics space, we spoke to CTO and Co-Founder of La Jolla Labs, Jeff ...
