Isn't that basically just what Walter already said below (7 years ago)?

You have to create a structure that you pass in to msgbox(). See this function msgboxw() that puts up a message with fontsize 14. Adapt as needed.
function msgboxw(message)
try
CreateStruct.Interpreter = 'tex';
CreateStruct.WindowStyle = 'modal';
% CreateStruct.Title = 'MATLAB Message';
fontSize = 14;
% Embed the required tex code in before the string.
latexMessage = sprintf('\\fontsize{%d} %s', fontSize, message);
uiwait(msgbox(latexMessage, 'MATLAB message', CreateStruct));
catch ME
errorMessage = sprintf('Error in msgboxw():\n%s', ME.message);
fprintf('%s\n', errorMessage);
uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
end
return; % from msgboxw()
