Evaluation of the transmission-blocking potential of Plasmodium vivax antigen Pvg37 using transgenic rodent parasites and clinical isolates by Di Zhang, Yan Zhao, Dongyan Liu, Fei Liu, Pengbo Liu, Biying Zhang, Zifang Wu, Wanlapa Roobsoong, Sirasate Bantuchai, Sataporn Thongpoon, Piyarat Sripoorote, Meilian Wang, Liwang Cui, Yaming Cao

“…In vitro experiments demonstrated that anti-Pvg37-P2 antibodies significantly inhibited the formation of male gametes and ookinetes in the transgenic TrPvg37Pb parasite. Additionally, in mosquito feeding assays, mosquitos feeding on TrPvg37Pb-infected mice passively transferred with anti-Pvg37-P2 antibodies showed a significant 80.2% decrease in oocyst density compared to the control group. …”

Immunoprotective effect of chitosan nanoparticles with different particle sizes against H9N2 avian influenza infection by Shangen Xu, Zhi Zhao, Chenxi Sun, Yile Ji, Qingshuang Luan, Qihong Zhang, Zheng Jin, Kai Zhao

“…To solve these problems and to prepare an efficient novel H9N2 vaccine, we constructed four N-2-HACC/CMCS NPs (NHC NPs) of different particle sizes (165.6 ± 12.0 nm, 272.5 ± 7.0 nm, 343.2 ± 8.0 nm, and 443.5 ± 15.0 nm). Subsequent in vivo immunogenicity screening revealed that H9N2 with the 272.5 ± 7.0 nm NHC NPs vaccine group induced higher levels of neutralizing antibodies in the early stage of the immune response, while the 343.2 ± 8.0 nm NHC NPs vaccine group induced higher levels of neutralizing antibodies in the late stages of the immune response. …”
