Timeline of some key discoveries and advances in the development of mRNA-based drug technology. The first successful transfection of designed mRNA packaged within a liposomal nanoparticle into a cell was published in 1989. [18] [19] "Naked" (or unprotected) lab-made mRNA was injected a year later into the muscle of mice.
Early studies suggest mRNA technology shows promise as a treatment for cancers, including melanoma and pancreatic cancer, and it’s being studied for use in vaccines for seasonal flu, respiratory ...
When the SARS-CoV-2 virus emerged in China in 2019, BioNTech had already used mRNA technology to design a vaccine against the Zika virus, which had infected hundreds of thousands of pregnant women ...

Initially, MacLachlan and Tekmira turned away from the collaboration. Karikó wanted to team up with Ian MacLachlan because he was the leader of a team that helped advance mRNA technology. Karikó was working on establishing the formulated lipid nanoparticle delivery system that encapsulates mRNA in a dense particle through a mixing process ...
