The diverse capabilities of nucleic acid therapies, gene-editing guide RNA (gRNA), immunomodulatory DNA/RNA, messenger RNA (mRNA), microRNA and siRNA, plasmids, and antisense oligonucleotides (ASO), for modification of immune responses and change the target endogenous or synthetic gene's expression, make them appealing. These skills can be extremely important in the creation of innovative immunotherapy approaches.

Once introduced into cells, this mRNA gets translated into a corresponding protein with cellular machinery. All kinds of mRNA encoding any protein, peptide, and fragment of proteins have been designed to be used for various therapeutic goals, including cancerous diseases, immunotherapy, vaccine preparation, tissue engineering, and genetic disorders, among others. These vaccines encode tumor-specific antigens that stimulate the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells. Additionally, mRNA can be designed to produce proteins that modulate immune checkpoints, thereby enhancing the immune system's ability to target cancer cells. Synthetic mRNA can also engineer immune cells, such as T cells, to improve their cancer-fighting capabilities. For instance, mRNA can be engineered to generate CAR T cells targeting specific antigens that are expressed in the cancer. Designed mRNA can encode functional proteins in patients suffering from genetic disorders characterized by an absence or defect in a particular protein.

Although immunomodulatory therapeutics in cancer have been preliminarily concentrated on T-cells, emerging evidences have suggested that intra-tumoral B-cells and plasma cells have significant contributions in cancer prognosis primarily through the production of antibodies. B-cell oriented cancer vaccines have been used in early clinical trials of breast and other cancers after multiple preclinical studies. Passive immunotherapy via administration of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and emergence of anti-idiotypic antibodies have led to considerable advancement in oncotherapy. Endogenous production of mAbs would be of significant benefit in recurrent or residual malignancies and permanent infusion would help in the overcoming of issues related to pharmacodynamic variations observed in case of intravenous inoculations of bi or tri specific mAbs. This has directed towards the development of genome reprogrammed B-cells with the capability of yielding therapeutic mAbs independently. Genetic alteration through clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) nucleases have enabled the introduction of transgenes into B-cell genome thereby stimulating the plasma cells to produce exogenous remedial antibodies. It also facilitates ex vivo B-cell editing to elevate specificities of antigen receptors and generate target specific antibody responses which cannot normally be evoked in patient's immune system. Hence, genome-altered B-cells possess the potential of engineered therapeutics against certain malignancies. Co-operation of B-cells in T-cell based vaccines are ultimate need for vaccine success.
