Scientists are one step closer to creating a new generation of drugs

Scientists have reported that they are one step closer to creating a new generation of drugs that can treat a variety of diseases, including cancer. The study was published in the current issue of the journal Nature. Scientists said that disabled the key genetic material in cells (RNA). An important role in the disease When the monkeys exposed, they could reduce the level of cholesterol in animals, paralyzing RNA in liver cells that control metabolism. Before the tests were performed in vitro or in rodents. The study results give hope to create drugs for liver diseases.
