TL;DR Summary

Researchers at MIT and the Broad Institute have developed a method using mRNA to temporarily program liver cells, creating a 'factory' that produces T-cell survival factors, which rejuvenates the immune system in aged mice and enhances their response to vaccines and cancer treatments. This approach could potentially help maintain immune health in humans as they age.
