Objective: To observe the immunoprotection of recombinant plasmids of lambda Mzp5-7 to chicken challenged with Eimeria tenella (E. t) oocysts.
Methods: All the chickens were immunized with the recombinant plasmids by different inoculation pathways, three times on d7, d14 and d21, and challenged with E. t oocysts. The response of specific humoral and cell immunity were detected by the immunological methods such as the specific antibody response, the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T cells.
Results: The results showed that the recombinant plasmids can induce immune response. The specific immune responses were strengthened with the increase of immunization times. The difference of the immunity indexes among experiment groups was not significant, while the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T cells and antibody titer were significantly higher in experiment groups than those in the control groups. The number of oocysts shed in experiment groups decreased and the shedding duration was shorter significantly. The body weight of the chicken in experiment groups increased significantly and the lesion in cecum was slighter than that of control groups.
Conclusion: The recombinant plasmids of lambda Mzp5-7 show an immunoprotection to chicken challenged with E. t oocysts.

Background: Machupo virus (MACV) is a New World mammarenavirus (hereafter referred to as "arenavirus") and the etiologic agent of Bolivian hemorrhagic fever (BHF). No vaccine or antiviral therapy exists for BHF, which causes up to 35% mortality in humans. New World arenaviruses evolve separately in different locations.

is an opportunistic pathogen with four subspecies: (FNN), (FNV), (FNP), and (FNA), each with distinct disease potentials. Research on fusobacterial pathogenesis has mainly focused on the model strain ATCC 23726 from FNN. However, this narrow focus may overlook significant behaviors of other FNN strains and those from other subspecies, given the genetic and phenotypic diversity within .

To clone DNA sequences quickly and precisely into plasmids is essential for molecular biology studies. Some cloning vectors have been developed for the cloning of PCR products, including blunt-end and T-A cloning. However, different plasmids are required for the cloning of PCR products with blunt ends and 3' A overhang ends.

Proteic plasmid addiction systems, such as the control of cell death (Ccd), have been used for efficient plasmid DNA recombination. The CcdB toxin, which has a relatively long sequence of 309 bp, has been the predominant choice for this purpose. However, the need for shorter peptide toxins has emerged.

Background: Chemical transfection is a widely employed technique in airway epithelium research, enabling the study of gene expression changes and effects. Additionally, it has been explored for its potential application in delivering gene therapies. Here, we characterize the transfection efficiency of EX-EGFP-Lv105, an EGFP-expressing plasmid into three cell lines commonly used to model the airway epithelium (1HAEo-, 16HBE14o-, and NCI-H292).
