Messenger RNA (mRNA) technology is changing modern medicine by giving our cells genetic instructions to produce proteins that help the immune system prevent or fight diseases such as cancer and rare disorders. To protect mRNA from breaking down quickly, it is enclosed in lipid nanoparticles—tiny fat-based carriers that safely deliver the mRNA into cells so it can function properly.
