Maternal vaccination is essential for safeguarding both mother and foetus from infectious diseases. This study investigated the immunogenicity and efficacy of a maternal ORF-B2L genetic vaccine in a pregnant rat model, focusing on maternal-neonatal immune modulation, placental and neonatal spleen transcriptomics and the underlying mechanisms contributing to neonatal immune development. Female rats received intramuscular injections of either a gene vaccine (GV) containing 200 μg of recombinant ORF-B2L DNA and 50 μg of a subunit protein or an empty plasmid as a control.
