    Abstract: TNF-alpha (Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha) is a cytokine, a protein involved in the inflammation process in the body. It plays a crucial role in the immune system, primarily produced by activated macrophages the white blood cells. TNF-alpha is critical in the inflammatory response to infections and diseases, but it can also contribute to inflammatory and autoimmune diseases when produced in excess. Many antibodies are created to inhibit over-expressed TNF-alpha but with serious side effects. The present invention provides a mRNA vaccine to reduce the titer of TNF-alpha, leading to treating multiple life-threatening diseases including but not limited to rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease, ankylosing spondylitis, plaque psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, type 2 diabetes, tumor progression, angiogenesis, and metastasis, heart failure from myocardial cell death, and atherosclerosis from fibrosis.
