An mRNA Vaccine Based on Antigens From Conserved Regions of Monkeypox Virus A35R and M1R With a Dimer-Like Conformation Confers Protection Against Both Monkeypox Virus and Vaccinia Virus Infections in Mice. [PDF]
We developed four candidate mRNA vaccine antigens based on conserved sequences of MPXV A35R and M1R proteins. Our findings demonstrate that the MV2 vaccine possesses favorable immunogenicity and prophylactic potential against MPXV and VACV infections, positioning it as a promising clinical candidate for MPXV prevention.
