Aim: To evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of rabies vaccine for human use after post-exposure in China.

Methods: A systematic search was performed from PubMed, EMBASE, CNKI and Cochrane Library database, supplemented by manual retrieval. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a meta-analysis was performed using Stata 16.0 software after independent literature screening, data extraction and quality assessment by two evaluators.

Results: A total of 32 studies were included. It was found that rabies vaccination after PEP could induce the body to produce sufficient RVNA. Both Essen and Zagreb regimens showed good immunogenicity, with no significant difference in systemic events and local events after PEP, but a relatively high incidence of local and systemic events after PEP under the Zagreb regimen.

Conclusion: For the Chinese population, rabies vaccination after PEP has shown relatively a good immune efficacy and acceptable safety for preventing human rabies. The survey also found that the Zagreb regimen was comparable to the Essen regimen in terms of rabies prophylaxis with an acceptable safety profile.

Background: Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) has a poor prognosis, necessitating the investigation of novel treatments and targets. This study evaluated JNJ-70218902 (JNJ-902), a T-cell redirector targeting transmembrane protein with epidermal growth factor-like and 2 follistatin-like domains 2 (TMEFF2) and cluster of differentiation 3, in mCRPC.

Patients And Methods: Patients who had measurable/evaluable mCRPC after at least one novel androgen receptor-targeted therapy or chemotherapy were eligible.

Background And Aims: Lackluster results from recently completed gene therapy clinical trials of VEGF-A delivered by viral vectors have heightened the need to develop alternative delivery strategies. This study aims to demonstrate the pre-clinical efficacy and safety of extracellular vesicles (EVs) loaded with VEGF-A mRNA for the treatment of ischaemic vascular disease.

Methods: After encapsulation of full-length VEGF-A mRNA into fibroblast-derived EVs via cellular nanoporation (CNP), collected VEGF-A EVs were delivered into mouse models of ischaemic injury.

(Mp), a unique pathogen devoid of a cell wall, is naturally impervious to penicillin antibiotics. This bacterium is the causative agent of pneumonia, an acute pulmonary affliction marked by interstitial lung damage. Non-macrolide medications may have potential adverse effects on the developmental trajectory of children, thereby establishing macrolides as the preferred treatment for in pediatric patients.

Background And Objective: As the most common cancer to progress to brain metastases (BMs), lung cancer presents with intracranial involvement in approximately 20% of patients at the time of diagnosis and lung cancer BMs constitute approximately half of all BMs. The current clinical strategy for managing lung cancer BMs involves a combination of systemic anticancer therapies with local radiation or surgical interventions. The efficacy of systemic treatments is often constrained by the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the poor inhibition effect of the drug itself.

DNA vaccines are third-generation vaccines composed of plasmids that encode vaccine antigens. Their advantages include fast development, safety, stability, and cost effectiveness, which make them an attractive vaccine platform for genetic and infectious diseases. However, the low transfection efficiency of DNA vaccines results in poor performance in both larger animals and humans, thereby limiting their clinical use.
