Provided herein are methods for using compositions that include a fusion protein having a YscF protein domain, a mature F1 protein domain, and a LcrV protein domain. In one embodiment the composition is used to confer immunity to plague, such as pneumonic plague, caused by Yersinia pestis. In one embodiment, the composition is administered to a mucosal surface, such as by an intranasal route. In one embodiment, the administration to a mucosal surface includes a vector that has a polynucleotide encoding a fusion protein, where the fusion protein includes a YscF protein domain, a mature F1 protein domain, and a LcrV protein domain. The administration is followed by a second administration by a different route, such as an intramuscular route. The second administration includes a fusion protein having the same three domains, and in one embodiment the fusion protein is the same one administered to a mucosal surface.

Methods for treating and preventing dysbiosis in a subject suffering from or susceptible to gastrointestinal disorders are described. The methods comprises administering a hyperimmunized egg product to the subject, wherein the egg product is obtained from a hyperimmunized avian, optionally in combination with an additional compound such as a probiotic and/or nutrient source.

Disclosed are an attenuated live vaccine against mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine (MPS) and use thereof. In the present invention, pathological lung tissues of swine having typical Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Mhp) infection and no obvious other pathogenic infections are screened, and subcultured 100 generations in lungs of newborn rabbits; then, Mhp strains are isolated and serially subcultured in a medium; and the Mhp strain AN306 is obtained by screening a plurality of strains, which is deposited with an accession number: CCTCC NO. M2012431. Also disclosed is a live vaccine formulation against MPS prepared on the basis of the attenuated strain and comprising live attenuated strain, a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient, and optionally an adjuvant and immunogens of other pathogens.
