This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
Advanced mRNA vaccines play vital roles against SARS-CoV-2. However, due to the poor stability, most current mRNA delivery platforms need to be stored at -20 {degrees}C or -70 {degrees}C. Here we present lyophilized thermostable mRNA loaded lipid nanoparticles, which could be stored at room temperature with long-term stability. We demonstrate the applicability of lyophilization techniques to different mRNA sequences and lipid components. Three lyophilized vaccines targeting wild-type, Delta and Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variant were prepared and demonstrated to be able induce high-level of IgG titer and neutralization response. In the Delta challenge in vivo experiment, the lyophilized mRNA vaccine successfully protected the mice from infection and clear the virus. This lyophilization platform could significantly improve the accessibility of mRNA vaccine or therapeutics, particularly in remote regions.
