What Is mRNA Vaccine
The immunological response that is induced by a vaccination known as an mRNA vaccine is brought about by the administration of a replica of a molecule known as messenger RNA (mRNA). The vaccine inserts molecules of mRNA that encode antigens into immune cells. The immune cells then utilize the engineered mRNA as a template to construct a foreign protein similar to one that would typically be generated by a cancer cell or a disease. These protein molecules activate an adaptive immune response, which educates the body to detect and eliminate the matching cancer cells or pathogens. Adaptive immune responses have been shown to be more effective than traditional immune responses. The delivery of the mRNA is accomplished by the use of a co-formulation that consists of the RNA being encased in lipid nanoparticles. These nanoparticles serve to preserve the RNA strands and assist in their uptake into the cells.
