"The mRNA was initially designed to treat cancer patients "

was it?


that makes sense - but, I haven't seen that it was anything specific that the early work - concept was about - 1989/1990 ish

the first human trials involved tumors - but, that was ?? at least a decade later


it sure has potential as you say for other uses ------------ LOTS of other uses at a guess


I'd read somewhere that the 'concept' of messenger was about a lot earlier as well - but, I've lost that information - somewhere in the cybermist
