Description

Rustam Ravilov, Antonina Galeeva, and their co-authors built gene delivery packages aimed at a future vaccine against African swine fever. Their 2023 study uses a harmless carrier virus, AAV2, to carry key genes of the swine fever virus into cells. The disease is a major threat to pigs, and a working vaccine is still lacking.

Computer analysis picked four genes most likely to draw a strong immune response. The team placed each gene into the carrier and assembled the packages in cultured cells, then measured how much carrier was made. Tests in human and animal cells checked that the genes switched on, hit the right cells, and did not poison them. The work is an early lab step toward a vector based vaccine.
