A Systemic Selective Modified mRNA Delivery Platform for Preventing Chemotherapy‐Induced Cardiotoxicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In Yoo and Mainkar et al., we present a minimally invasive, CM‐selective modRNA delivery system encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles for intravenous (IV) administration. This platform enables selective cardiac translation of therapeutic modRNA but suppresses expression in off‐target tissues, including tumors.

LC16m8: An attenuated smallpox vaccine

Vaccine, 2006
The frequency of moderate to severe adverse reactions associated with smallpox vaccines currently stockpiled in the US, and the continued threat of bioterrorism have prompted the development of effective vaccines with improved safety profiles. LC16m8, an attenuated, replicating smallpox vaccine derived from the Lister strain of vaccinia, is currently ...

Potent and Long‐Lasting Immunogenicity Generated by LNP‐mRNA gE Antigen Against Varicella Zoster Virus via an AI‐Assisted Pipeline

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study designs a novel mRNA‐LNP vaccine targeting VZV glycoprotein E (gE) for herpes zoster via an AI‐assisted pipeline. Validated in mice and rhesus macaques, the mRNA‐LNP vaccine shows strong humoral and cellular immune responses, with CD4+ T‐cell responses more effective and durable than Shingrix, offering a promising prophylactic option ...

A systematic approach to the development of a safe live attenuated Zika vaccine

Nature Communications, 2018
A Zika virus (ZIKV) vaccine should provide long-lasting immunity, which may be achieved with a live-attenuated vaccine. Here, Kwek et al. select an interferon-restricted, attenuated ZIKV variant and evaluate replication and immunogenicity in mouse and ...
