Histopathological analyses of the duodena and myocardia of chickens challenged with the highly virulent NDV strain F48E9.

Notes: (A) Tissues of the duodena from chickens immunized with pFDNA-LDH@SiO2-NPs IN. (B) Tissues of the myocardia from chickens immunized with pFDNA-LDH@SiO2-NPs IN. (C) Tissues of the duodena from chickens immunized with pFDNA-LDH@SiO2-NPs IM, naked plasmid pVAX1-F(o) DNA IM, or PBS IM. (D) Tissues of the myocardia from chickens in groups immunized with the pFDNA-LDH@SiO2-NPs IM, naked plasmid pVAX1-F(o) DNA IM, or PBS IM.

Abbreviations: IM, intramuscularly; IN, intranasally; LDH, layered double hydroxide; NDV, Newcastle disease virus; NPs, nanoparticles; PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; pFDNA-LDH@SiO2-NPs, NDV F gene encapsulated in the LDH@SiO2-NPs.
