The live attenuated yellow fever (YF) vaccine was developed in the 1930s. Currently, the 17D and 17DD attenuated substrains are used for vaccine production. The 17D strain is used for vaccine production by several countries, while the 17DD strain is used exclusively in Brazil. The cell passages carried out through the seed-lot system of vaccine production influence the presence of quasispecies causing changes in the stability and immunogenicity of attenuated genotypes by increasing attenuation or virulence. Using next-generation sequencing, we carried out genomic characterization and genetic diversity analysis between vaccine lots of the Brazilian YF vaccine, produced by BioManguinhos-Fiocruz, and used during 11 years of vaccination in Brazil. We present 20 assembled and annotated genomes from the Brazilian 17DD vaccine strain, eight single nucleotide polymorphisms and the quasispecies spectrum reconstruction for the 17DD vaccine, through a pipeline here introduced. The V2IDA pipeline provided a relationship between low genetic diversity, maintained through the seed lot system, and the confirmation of genetic stability of lots of the Brazilian vaccine against YF. Our study sets precedents for use of V2IDA in genetic diversity analysis and stability investigation of attenuated viral vaccines, facilitating genetic surveillance during the vaccine production process.

Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), are short tandemly repeated DNA sequences widely dispersed throughout the genome. Their high variability, co-dominant inheritance, and ease of detection make them valuable genetic markers, frequently used to study genetic diversity, population structure, and evolutionary processes. In the context of malaria research, particularly with Plasmodium falciparum (P.

CyHV-2 is the pathogen of herpesvirus haematopoietic necrosis (HVHN), resulting in significant economic losses in crucian carp. Although multiple oral vaccines have been developed to prevent CyHV-2, they have not achieved ideal protective effects. To improve the protective effect of oral vaccine, a combination vaccine was conducted by mixing recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae displaying ORF132 or ORF25 on the cell surface in a 1:1 ratio.

Melanoma, recognized as one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer, continues to show a steady rise in global incidence. While Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) has been identified as a potential intralesional therapy for melanoma, its therapeutic efficacy remains suboptimal. This study introduces a novel thermosensitive hydrogel formulated with BCG lysates and either OVA peptide or tumor cell lysates (PPP-BCG-OVA/TL).
