RNA therapy
RNA therapy involves using molecules called RNA to direct cells to produce specific proteins or to block harmful ones. This approach can treat diseases by turning on or off certain genes without altering the DNA itself. For example, in some cases, RNA therapy helps the body produce missing or defective proteins, or prevents the production of harmful proteins. It’s a precise and adaptable method, used in recent vaccines like COVID-19 vaccines, and shows promise for treating genetic disorders, cancers, and more by targeting disease at the molecular level.
