Scientists from Tel Aviv University and Israeli Biological Research Institute (IIBR) have created the world’s first MRNA -based vaccine to fight fatal antibiotic resistant bacteria in major breakthroughs.Like the covid-19 shots, the Loy vaccine uses lipid nanoparticles to provide protection and obtain it. It showed 100% effect on animal tests on pneumonic plague, one of the most deadly bacterial infections.
Even a study that lands the cover Advanced science Journal led with Professor Dan Peer, Tel Aviv University’s team and scientists of IIBR. DR. for the star team EDO KON, Dr. INBAL HAZAN-HALEVY and PHD Students Shani Benarroch.“Despite the extensive world -class efforts to develop effective and safe vaccines for Yersinia PESTIS, there have been no approval in Western countries to protect this infamous bacterial pathogen. These gaps of this protection are especially especially due to the ability of Y. PESTIS to irritate. It is about being classified.
What is Yersinia Pestis? ?
Yersinia Pestis may sound like the name of the villain of a science fiction film, but it is very realistic and very fatal. This cunning small bacteria are actually the causes of infamous infectious diseases, including the Black Death, which lost millions of people in Europe in the 1300s. Yes, we are talking about the epidemic.What exactly is Yersinia PESTIS? It is a type of bacteria that are generally infected, especially the bacteria spread to humans through riding of rats. Entering the body can lead to some different types of diseases, such as bibes, blood blood and pneumonia. Bubonic plague is the most common epidemic and usually named from the painful lymph nodes in the armpit, neck or groin.The more scary version of PNEUMONIC Plague affects the lungs and can actually spread through coughing or sneezing. It is part of being so dangerous. There is no fleas to spread and only a coughing human carrier. If you leave it without treatment? It can be fatal in a few days.Rough part? Yersinia Pestis is still around today, but it contains smaller and more onset. Countries like the United States, Madagascar and Congo Democratic Republic still reports occasionally. The good news is that modern antibiotics are generally caught early. Timing is everything in this bacteria.What is particularly demanding to Yersinia Pestis is the degree of overwhelming the immune system. It is difficult to produce toxins and proteins and sneak into our defense and the body is difficult to fight back on time. Unfortunately, antibiotic resistance is concerned, and some strains do not respond to treatment as before.That’s why the development of new vaccines, especially MRNA -based vaccines, is a big problem. Scientists are working hard to take a step ahead, and recent breakthroughs can finally fight us better tools for us.In short, Yersinia Pestis is a small but terrible worm with a cruel history and a serious potential. It may not be on the headline every day, but it is definitely not a person to ignore.
