The discovery of RNAi dates back to the 1990s when researchers observed unexpected gene silencing in plants and fungi. In 1998, Andrew Fire and Craig Mello published a groundbreaking study ...
Researchers identify a shared RNA-protein interaction that could lead to broad-spectrum antiviral treatments for enteroviruses ...
A new possibility for managing cardiovascular disease through RNA interference (RNAi) gene therapies. As cardiovascular diseases continue to be the leading cause of death globally, this technology ...
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) plays a central role in the implementation of genetic information. RNA interference (RNAi) acts like a "gene switch," selectively silencing specific genes. It uses specialized ...
In a recent study published in The New England Journal of Medicine, researchers evaluate the efficacy of plazosiran treatment on fasting triglyceride levels in adult patients with mixed hyperlipidemia ...
Persons with mixed hyperlipidemia are at risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease due to an elevated non–high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level, which is driven by remnant cholesterol ...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death globally, and combating this range of complex disorders presents numerous challenges. Scientists seek innovative approaches to address this ...
Endogenous RNA is central to protein control and, ultimately, cellular function. Synthetic RNA is an important tool for biological research and is also offering a new generation of promising ...
RNA interference – RNAi – functions specifically to silence, or deactivate, genes. Among other applications, it promises to be groundbreaking as a way to treat infections of bees by a commercially ...
