Lipid nanoparticle-mRNA: another step in the fight against COVID-19

One of the most important therapies useful in preventing progression of COVID-19 in high-risk patients are monoclonal antibodies targeting the surface glycoprotein.In a recent work in Cell Research,Deng et al.use lipid nanoparticles encapsulating mRNA encoding SARS-CoV-2-specific antibody chains to protect animals from lethal infection.
