A porous membrane was engineered to capture RNA on its surface. A CRISPR-based reaction generates a fluorescent signal in the presence of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in a saliva sample. Image source: Wyss Institute at Harvard University. One of the great things about miSHERLOCK is that it’s entirely modular.

Thalassaemia is a severe genetic disease that is characterised by significantly reduced production of functional beta-globin, a component of haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in the blood. It has a candidate in development that targets TMPRSS6, an enzyme that reduces levels of a protein (hepcidin) that controls iron levels in the body.

Their technology is based on synthetic messenger RNA – short for ribose nucleic acid – which is a short transcript of a longer DNA code. As it’s just a messenger molecule, it does not affect the body’s own genetic code when it is injected as a vaccine – but what it does do is instruct cells to code for copies of a certain protein.

A major breakthrough from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in mapping the structure of the RSV protein significantly changed the landscape, allowing companies to leap into RSV drug research with better efficacy results. However, subsequent RSV drugs, like Medimmune’s motavizumab, failed in clinical trials.

With no specific medication available, doctors are likely to recommend exercise and self-management of the condition, through rest and reduced workload. Anyone living with Long COVID would likely be interested in knowing why the same urgency is not being shown to develop a treatment for this condition.

Still, when doctors told her last year that the cancer was growing despite two operations, radiation therapy, and a fifth regimen of chemotherapy, the retired business-meeting facilitator decided to do something unorthodox: spend $83,000 out of pocket on an unproven experimental cancer vaccine.
