Abstract Because therapeutic cancer vaccines can, in theory, eliminate tumor cells specifically with relatively low toxicity, they have long been considered for application repressing progression. Traditional containing a single or few discrete epitopes failed the clinic, possibly due to challenges epitope selection, target downregulation, cell heterogeneity, microenvironment immunosuppression, lack of vaccine immunogenicity. Whole membrane vaccines, which provide rich source antigens, are emerging as viable alternatives. Autologous and allogenic cellular evaluated clinical treatments.

Newcastle disease (ND) causes major economic losses in poultry farming Madagascar and many other countries. Previously, vaccines based on attenuated or inactivated viruses (NDV) have been effective against this disease. However, their efficacy has declined due to viral mutations over time. To address this, two new multi-epitope (MEV) designed using immunoinformatics methods. First, 26 conserved epitopes from the fusion protein 22 hemagglutinin-neuraminidase of 12 NDV strains isolated were selected design MEV. These fused with specific linkers. Additionally, adjuvant Avian Beta-Defensins-1 6xHis tag added N- C-terminal ends vaccine formulations, respectively. The antigenicity, allergenicity, solubility, physicochemical properties MEV evaluated. Their three-dimensional structures also modeled. Molecular docking studies dynamic simulations then conducted chicken Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) assess binding affinity receptor. Finally, an immunological simulation was carried out ability candidate induce immune response. Through analysis, both MEVs developed study found be highly antigenic, nonallergenic, physicochemically stable. In addition, they showed significant interaction TLR7 They capacity trigger responses promote formation memory cells following immunization. Therefore, these represent promising candidates for control ND. As is silico methods, vitro vivo experiments are required confirm extend results.
