General information

mRNA-RBD is a nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccine formulated in lipid nanoparticles. It uses SARS-CoV-2 Spike RBD as the immunogen (Huang et al., 2021).

Link Tested on Impact factor Notes Publication date
A single-dose mRNA vaccine provides a long-term protection for hACE2 transgenic mice from SARS-CoV-2
RNA Animal model In vitro Mixed substance
cryo-EM; Huh7 cells (pseudovirus neutralization assay); C57BL/6 mice; hACE2-expressing BALB/c mice; SARS-CoV-2 strain hCoV-19/Wuhan/IVDC-HB-01/2019 12.12

A single dose of the experimental vaccine elicited potent neutralizing antibody and CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell responses in a murine model. hACE2-expressing mice were almost completely protected from SARS-CoV-2 infection (weight-loss, lung viral loads, and lung pathology assessment) and the neutralizing antibody response was long-lasting. After a second immunization the NT90 titres reached 2000 (170 after a single immunization).
