Core Tip This narrative review explores the emerging role of messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines in the prevention of tuberculosis (TB). It highlights their immunological advantages, summarizes promising preclinical and early clinical findings, and critically discusses the limitations of current models, including TB pathogenesis, immune evasion, and vaccine delivery challenges. The narrative review provides a forward-looking perspective on how mRNA platforms could overcome the shortcomings of the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine and reshape global TB prevention strategies.
