Abstract

As an emerging porcine enteropathogenic coronavirus, porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) has the potential for cross-species transmission, attracting extensive attention. Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines are a promising option for combating emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, as evidenced by the demonstrated efficacy of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. Here, we first demonstrated that PDCoV-S mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (LNP) vaccines could induce potent humoral and cellular immune responses in mice. An evaluation of passive immune protection of S mRNA vaccines in suckling piglets confirmed that the protective effect of mRNA vaccine was better than that of inactivated vaccine. This study suggests that the PDCoV-S mRNA-LNP vaccine may serve as a potential and novel vaccine candidate for combating PDCoV infection.
