Discussion
In conclusion, npFOXF1 has a very good safety profile and combined with preceding studies showing therapeutic efficacy, npFOXF1 can be considered as a good candidate therapy for ACDMPV in human neonates.
Methods
npFOXF1 was constructed, validated, and subsequently administered in a single dose to postnatal day 14 (P14) mice via retro-orbital injection. Biochemical, serologic, and histologic safety were monitored at postnatal day 16 (P16) and postnatal day 21 (P21).
Results
With treatment we observed no lethality, and the general condition of mice revealed no obvious abnormalities. Serum chemistry, whole blood, and histologic toxicity was assayed on P16 and P21 and revealed no abnormality.
