Zhang J., 2024, Vaccine development for major goat diseases, International Journal of Molecular Veterinary Research, 14(6): 254-260 (doi: 10.5376/ijmvr.2024.14.0029)

This study explores the progress, challenges, and future prospects of vaccine development for major goat diseases, introduces bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases, as well as corresponding advances in traditional and modern vaccine technologies, including innovative delivery systems such as recombinant, DNA, RNA based vaccines, and nanoparticles. Key challenges such as pathogen diversity, regulatory barriers, and on-site adoption barriers are discussed, and case studies emphasize the successful implementation of vaccination programs, providing insights for effective disease control strategies. Looking ahead, combining genomics, proteomics, and artificial intelligence with vaccine development is expected to accelerate breakthroughs, and global cooperation and policy support are crucial for equitable access to vaccines. Continuous innovation and coordinated efforts are crucial for improving goat health, increasing productivity, and promoting global sustainable animal husbandry.
