Millions of people who have refused to get an experimental mRNA vaccine may soon be forced to consume the gene therapy in their food.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Researchers at the University of California were awarded a $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation developing technology that infuses experimental mRNA Covid-19 vaccines into spinach, lettuce and other edible plants.<\/p>\n

The team of nanobiotechnology experts is currently working on successfully delivering DNA containing mRNA BioNTech technology into chloroplasts, the part of the plants that instruct its cells\u2019 DNA to replicate the vaccine material.<\/p>\n

The researchers are tasked with demonstrating the genetically modified plants can produce enough mRNA to replace Covid jabs and infuse the plants with the right dosage required to eat to replace vaccines.<\/p>\n

Experimental mRNA vaccines will be edible, Juan Pablo Giraldo, an associate professor in UCR\u2019s Department of Botany and Plant Sciences who is leading the research explained in a press release published by the university on Sept. 16.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIdeally, a single plant would produce enough mRNA to vaccinate a single person,\u201d Giraldo said. \u201cWe are testing this approach with\u00a0spinach and lettuce\u00a0and have long-term goals of people growing it in their own gardens.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFarmers could also eventually grow entire fields of it,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Effectively delivering the genetic material to a plant\u2019s chloroplast, small organs in plant cells that convert sunlight into energy the plant can use, is critical to rolling out the vaccinated food.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Chloroplasts are] tiny, solar-powered factories that produce sugar and other molecules which allow the plant to grow,\u201d Giraldo said. \u201cThey\u2019re also an untapped source for making desirable molecules.\u201d<\/p>\n

Genetically modifying edible plants with experimental vaccines for public consumption is the culmination of a dream, the associate professor explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the reasons I started working in nanotechnology was so I could apply it to plants and create new technology solutions. Not just for food, but for high-value products as well, like pharmaceuticals,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>While previous studies have shown that chloroplasts are unable to express genes that are not a natural part of that plant, Giraldo\u2019s team is sending genetic material inside of a protective casing into plant cells. To accomplish the unprecedented genetic therapy, Giraldo recruited Nicole Steinmetz, a UC San Diego professor of nanoengineering.<\/p>\n

Steinmetz is working with Giraldo\u2019s team to utilize nanotechnologies that allow a plant\u2019s chloroplast to be infused with the mRNA vaccine.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur idea is to repurpose naturally occurring nanoparticles, namely plant viruses, for gene delivery to plants,\u201d Steinmetz said. \u201cSome engineering goes into this to make the nanoparticles go to the chloroplasts and also to render them non-infectious toward the plants.\u201d<\/p>\n

The National Science Foundation additionally granted Giraldo and his colleagues $1.6 million to develop \u201ctargeted nitrogen delivery,\u201d technology that uses nanomaterials to deliver nitrogen, a fertilizer, directly to chloroplasts.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, more people are dying from the COVID-19 \u201cvaccine\u201d than any other vaccine in recorded history. According to the CDC\u2019s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System<\/a>, 18,409 people have died from vaccination in 2021, while just 420 people died from vaccination prior to Covid inoculation mandates in 2020.<\/p>\n
