Designing an mRNA Vaccine against Involved in Fatal Pneumonia Infections via Comparative Proteomics and Reverse Vaccinology Approaches.

Background: is the most emerging life-threating health problem that causes acute and fatal pneumonia infection. It is rare and more contagious for patients with leukemia and immune-deficiency disorders. Until now there is no treatment available for this infection therefore, it is needed to develop any treatment against this pathogen.

An mRNA-based reverse-vaccinology strategy to stimulate the immune response against Nipah virus in humans using fusion glycoproteins.

The zoonotic pathogen, Nipah virus, is considered a potential healthcare threat due to its high mortality rates and detrimental symptoms like encephalitis. Ribavirin, an antiviral drug helps in overcoming the number of casualties and reducing the mortality rate, but no long-lasting solution has been proposed yet putting global health security in jeopardy. Given the cognizance of mRNA-based vaccines as safe and efficacious preventative strategies against pathogens, the current study has utilized the reverse-vaccinology approach coupled with immunoinformatics to propose an mRNA-based vaccine candidate against the Nipah virus.
