Purpose: Recombinant human B-type natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) has been extensively proven to be an effective mean of heart failure (HF) therapy, but its clinical application is limited by its very short half-life. This study aims to combine in vitro transcribed mRNA (IVT mRNA) and fusion protein technology to develop a rhBNP-Fc mRNA drug with long half-life, high efficiency and few side effects to treat HF.

Methods: The rhBNP-Fc fusion mRNA with IgG4-Fc sequence was produced by IVT technology.

Infants, especially those born prematurely or with underlying health conditions, face a high risk of severe RSV-related lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs). Globally, RSV contributes to millions of LRTI cases annually, with a disproportionate burden in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, exhibits moderate antipyretic and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as potent analgesic effects. It is widely used in clinical practice for pain relief in cases of mild and severe pain such as postoperative pain, fractures, sprains, toothaches and cancer pain. Due to its relatively short half-life, patients experiencing pain often need frequent injections or oral medications, leading to poor patient compliance.
