<p>Researchers from Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) have developed a novel method of adding polyethylene glycol molecules to engineered groups of messenger RNAs called “mRNA polyplexes”, which enable the cells that receive them to produce specific proteins. This technique allows greater control of the site in the body to which the polyplexes are delivered, significantly advancing the field of therapeutic mRNA technologies, with applications in vaccine development and the treatment of cancer and other diseases.</p>
