Live attenuated vaccines offer advantages over inactivated vaccines for controlling Pasteurella multocida infections in animals. This review focuses on natural attenuated vaccines, providing insights for developing next-generationPasteurella multocida vaccines.
Area of Science:
- Veterinary immunology
- Microbial pathogenesis
- Vaccine development
Background:
- Pasteurella multocida causes significant animal diseases like hemorrhagic septicemia and infectious pneumonia globally.
- Current prevention and control of animal pasteurellosis rely on outdated inactivated and live attenuated vaccines.
- Inactivated vaccines offer homologous protection but have short immunity and limited cross-protection; live attenuated vaccines provide longer immunity and broader protection.
Purpose of the Study:
- To comprehensively review the research and application history of natural attenuated vaccines against Pasteurella multocida.
- To offer theoretical foundations and novel perspectives for developing new Pasteurella multocida vaccines.
- To address the under-developed state of animal pasteurellosis prevention and control technologies.
Main Methods:
- Historical review of natural attenuated vaccines for Pasteurella multocida.
- Analysis of vaccine development periods: natural, traditional, and genetically engineered attenuated vaccines.
- Synthesis of existing research on Pasteurella multocida vaccine efficacy and limitations.
Main Results:
- Natural attenuated vaccines represent an early stage in Pasteurella multocida vaccine development.
- Live attenuated vaccines demonstrate advantages in duration of immunity and cross-protective capacity.
- The historical progression highlights the evolution towards more effective vaccine strategies.
Conclusions:
- Natural attenuated vaccines provide a historical context for Pasteurella multocida vaccine evolution.
- Further development of live attenuated vaccines is crucial for improved animal pasteurellosis control.
- This review aims to guide the creation of advanced Pasteurella multocida vaccines for livestock and poultry.
