【EXPERT Q&A】What is the development history and mechanism of action of mRNA drugs?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: The development of mRNA (messenger RNA) drugs has undergone a journey from early exploration to technological breakthroughs, and then to widespread application. The specific progression is as follows: I. Early Exploration (1961-1990) In 1961, scientists first discovered mRNA. In 1987, Malone found that mRNA molecules mixed with lipid droplets could enter cells and express the desired protein, marking the beginning of RNA research as a therapeutic agent. In 1990, scientists injected in vitro-transcribed messenger RNA (mRNA) into mice and discovered that it could be expressed in vivo, producing relevant proteins in a dose-dependent manner. This method of directly injecting mRNA could induce an immune response by expressing specific proteins, serving as the prototype for mRNA therapy. II. Technological Breakthroughs (Early 21st Century-2020) Entering the 21st century, mRNA synthesis, modification, and delivery technologies further advanced. In 2005, Karikó and Weissman discovered that using modified nucleotides like pseudouridine could ...

Integrating pharmacogenomics into everyday clinical practice can transform patient care

Pharmacogenomics studies how individuals respond to drugs based on their genetic code. Using that knowledge to guide prescribing in routine care could lead to better outcomes for patients and save money for health systems. Generating pharmacogenomic data in the laboratory is relatively straightforward, but a major challenge is making that information available to frontline healthcare professionals in a clinically relevant format and timeframe. This has meant that, to date, only a limited numbers of patients have been able to benefit from such individually optimised treatments. Dr. John McDermott, NIHR Academic Clinical Lecturer at the University of Manchester, Manchester, UK, will describe to the annual congress of the European Society of Human Genetics today (Tuesday) how he and colleagues, as part of the NHS-England Network of Excellence for Pharmacogenomics & Medicines Optimisation, have pioneered an approach to integrate genomic data into electronic health records in both GP practices and hospitals. This ...

MRI scans reveal why young women face higher risk for eating disorders

Breakthrough MRI scans reveal hidden hypothalamic changes in young women, shedding light on the biological roots of anorexia and obesity, and paving the way for targeted treatments. A recent editorial feature published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition discusses the use of a novel imaging technique to investigate how certain structural features of the hypothalamus affect eating behaviors. A new approach to studying the hypothalamus Women are more likely to develop eating disorders like anorexia nervosa than men, particularly during puberty. Despite this disproportional occurrence, few studies have investigated the role of the female brain in neuroscience and psychiatry. The hypothalamus is a small, heterogeneous brain structure in the diencephalon that regulates homeostatic and hedonic functions involved in feeding behaviors. Current imaging techniques are limited in their ability to capture nuclei subsegmentation within the hypothalamus. As a result, most studies investigating the role of the hypothalamus have been conducted ...
