This book provides a systematic and interdisciplinary introduction to nucleic acid therapeutics (NATs)—a rapidly advancing class of biopharmaceuticals based on engineered DNA and RNA molecules. It features clinically validated and experimental technologies such as siRNA, mRNA, CRISPR, and RNA circuits, and offers insight into multitarget NAT design guided by polypharmacology principles. Special emphasis is placed on chemical modification, delivery systems, regulatory pathways, and synthetic biology tools. Readers will benefit from practical guidance, translational relevance, and conceptual clarity that bridge molecular mechanisms and therapeutic applications. The book is intended for researchers, clinicians, students, and professionals seeking to advance innovation in genomics-driven drug development and modern precision medicine.
This volume I introduces the foundational principles, mechanisms, and molecular technologies of nucleic acid therapeutics.
