The MeshFilter component has a variable called “mesh”. You can assign the vertices, triangles, uvs, etc using this - see the docs for the Mesh class to see how it is used.

Unity’s API doesn’t really have much in the way of file access, but you can use the Mono libraries. Check out the System.IO library in particular.
