Recently, the Russian government has said that it has developed its own vaccine against cancer. Preparations have also started to launch it in early 2025. Alexander Gintsburg, director of the Gamaleya National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology, told the news agency TASS that in the pre-trial of the vaccine, it has helped prevent tumors and metastasis i.e. the spread of cancer to other organs. Russian President Vladimir Putin also said that we have come very close to making cancer vaccines and immunomodulatory medicines. This can be called the biggest discovery of the century. According to the Russian news agency, this vaccine will be administered free of cost to the citizens of Russia from next year.
Vaccine will be made with the help of AI
Gintsburg also said that this vaccine can be prepared according to every person. Right now this process is very long but by using artificial intelligence this time can be reduced to less than an hour. Artificial intelligence will make this mRNA vaccine according to every person within an hour after doing all the necessary calculations.
How does a cancer vaccine work?
Vaccines help our immune system identify cancer cells, so that our body can fight those cells and destroy them. Cancer vaccines target the tumor's proteins or antigens and destroy them. Some vaccines use modified viruses to eliminate these antigens, which causes this reaction. Modified viruses are also used in the cervical cancer vaccine, which helps the body recognize the virus and kill it. The risk of cancer is reduced. mRNA vaccines are different from this.
What is mRNA vaccine
mRNA vaccine is a vaccine in which modified viruses are not sent into the body. It teaches the body to fight the virus using messenger-RNA. mRNA or messenger-RNA is a small part of our gene, which makes protein in our cells. Understand it in simple language, when a virus attacks our body, mRNA sends a message to our cells to make protein to fight that virus, which helps in fighting the virus.
