The four major biomedical applications of mRNA nanomedicine include: 1) nanovaccines derived from antigen-encoded mRNA for the activation of the immune system; 2) proteinreplacement therapy for the treatment of genetic disorder diseases and cancer due to the mutation or loss of protein expression; 3) gene-editing achieved by the co-delivery of Cas9-encoded mRNA and gRNA; and 4) cell programming and engineering through the introduction of mRNA encoding for transcript factors or other functional molecules. In other studies, SAM vaccines encoding influenza antigens were successfully delivered to DCs by chitosan-nanoparticles and PEI-based polyplexes, which were also reported to successfully induce humoral and cellular immune responses in mice [145, 146] .
