A cancer treatment that uses messenger RNA to launch an immune attack on cancer cells can completely shrink tumors in mice and is currently being tested in humans.
Messenger RNAs – or mRNAs – are molecules that instruct cells to make proteins. They have become famous for launching the covid-19 mRNA vaccine.
