Preliminary evaluation of a novel serotype O foot-and-mouth disease mRNA vaccine.

ABSTRACT: Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is one of the most significant animal pathogens worldwide, severely impacting the health and productivity of pigs, cattle, sheep, and other ungulates. Although the traditional vaccines have played a crucial role in epidemic control, inactivated vaccines face persistent challenges concerning the potential for virus dissemination and pressures from serotype and subtype matching. However, the manufacture of attenuated vaccines is forbidden, and the efficiency of alternative vaccines for immune protection is still inadequate. Consequently, there exists an urgent need for safer and more effective innovative vaccines in animal husbandry. In this study, we aimed to develop a lipid nanoparticle mRNA vaccine based on VP1-3A-3D epitopes from serotype O FMD and to
