Respiratory virus mRNA vaccines: mRNA Design, clinical studies, and future challenges

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Respiratory infectious diseases frequently erupt on a global scale, with RNA viruses, such as SARS‐CoV‐2, RSV, and influenza viruses, posing challenges to vaccine development due to their high mutation rates. Traditional vaccine development cycles are lengthy and struggle to keep pace with rapidly evolving viruses, whereas messenger RNA (mRNA)

Animal models of hypertension and concurrent organs injury

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Although hypertension is a frequently seen chronic condition across the world, its exact cause remains unclear. Animal models are beneficial for clarifying the pathogenic mechanism of hypertension and examining new treatments. An optimal animal model for studies on hypertension must well mimic human‐like hemodynamics and pathophysiological structural ...

Biological Pathways and Potential Targets for Prevention and Therapy of Chronic Allograft Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Renal transplantation (RT) is the best option for patients with end-stage renal disease, but the half-life is limited to a decade due to progressive deterioration of renal function and transplant failure from chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN), which is

Revisiting the monocrotaline‐treated rat as a model of inflammatory lung disease: COVID‐19 and future pandemic threats?

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this review, the pathological, molecular, and cellular changes observed in the COVID‐19 lung are compared to those in the laboratory rat treated with monocrotaline (MCT). Similarities that reflect common changes associated with inflammation and endothelial cell dysfunction are observed in both states, leading to a lung pathology characterized by ...

Radiation emergency medical countermeasures: Current formulary, identified gaps, and future approaches

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Current radiation medical countermeasures primarily focus on hematopoietic acute radiation syndrome (H‐ARS) using agents like granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor (G‐CSF), granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF), and romiplostim, alongside treatments for internal contamination (Prussian blue, diethylenetriamine pentaacetate [DTPA ...
