Regardless of the particular case of CF, the luciferase example shows that inhalation genetic therapy could be an inspiration.
无论囊肿性纤维病的具体案例情况如何,荧光素酶的例子表明吸入基可能是条妙计。
They tested the concept by having mice breathe in genetic material called messenger RNA, or mRNA. For the test, the mRNA included instructions to manufacture luciferase—the stuff that lights up in fireflies.
他们通过让老鼠吸入称为信使 RNA 或 mRNA 的遗传物质来测试这个概念。为了进行测试, mRNA 包含制造荧光素酶的说明——荧光素酶是萤火虫体内会发光的物质。
