The research was supervised by Prof. Dr. Haider Naji Yareed Al-Hajjami and Asst. Prof. Dr. Amjad Talib Mohsen Al-Sultan.<\/p>\n<p>The study successfully developed a novel self-amplifying multi-epitope mRNA vaccine candidate against IBV. IBV is a significant viral disease affecting poultry, causing substantial health and economic impacts on the poultry production sector.<\/p>\n<p>The study results demonstrated the vaccine&#8217;s efficacy in eliciting a robust immune response\u2014including both humoral and cellular immunity\u2014against the virus. It offers a comprehensive immunological approach that may contribute to controlling the spread of diverse and mutated viral strains.\u00a0 The thesis concluded by discussing a promising strategic candidate for addressing Infectious Bronchitis in chickens, highlighting its demonstrated ability to stimulate both humoral and cell-mediated immune responses.<\/p>\n<p>The study recommended conducting further advanced experimental and clinical research to assess the candidate&#8217;s safety and efficacy against various viral strains and variants, paving the way for new insights into virus control programs within the poultry sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The College of Veterinary Medicine at Al-Qadisiyah examined the PhD thesis titled &#8220;Synthesis and Analysis of a Self-Amplifying Multi-Epitope mRNA &#8230; <a class=\"cz_readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/?p=4598\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span>Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":94,"featured_media":4600,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4598","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4598","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/94"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4598"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4598\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4601,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4598\/revisions\/4601"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4600"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4598"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.qu.edu.iq\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
