Abstract
The development of ionizable mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (mRNA-LNP) nucleic acid carriers facilitated the clinical translation of the Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) mRNA vaccines BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273. Here, we discuss insights into rational improvements to mRNA vaccines, focusing on LNP modifications for mRNA-LNP biodistribution control, miRNA-based biodistribution control of encoded transcripts, and precision adjuvantation strategies.
