Chumakov Federal Scientific Center for Research and Development of Immuneand-Biological Products to infection with different enterovirus 71 strains. A cell system based on domestic proprietary permanent cell line 4647 was for the first time used for reproduction of four enterovirus 71 strains (BrCr, 42266, 42934, and 43374). It was shown that strain 4647 is the optimal cell substrate for enterovirus 71 reproduction. The titers of enterovirus 71 for all four strains considerably (by 2 lgTCID50/ml and more) increased during sequential passages in permanent cell line 4647. The prospects of using permanent cell line 4647 for creation of diagnostic and preventive preparations against 71 was demonstrated.

These unique phagocytic epithelial cells are specialized for the transfer of a broad range of particulate antigens and microorganisms across the follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) into the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) by a process termed transcytosis. The molecular basis of antigen uptake by M cells has been gradually identified in the last decade. Active sampling of intestinal antigen initiates regulated immune responses that ensure intestinal homeostasis. The delivery of luminal substances across the intestinal epithelium to the immune system is a critical event in immune surveillance resulting in tolerance to dietary antigens and immunity to pathogens (e.g., bacteria, viruses, and parasites) and their toxins. Several specialized mechanisms transport luminal antigen across the gut epithelium. Discovery of M cell-specific receptors are of great interest, which could act as molecular tags for targeted delivery oral vaccine to M cells. Recent studies demonstrated that M cells utilize several receptors to recognize and transport specific luminal antigens. Vaccination through the mucosal immune system can induce effective systemic immune responses simultaneously with mucosal immunity. How this process is regulated is largely unknown. This review aims to show a new understanding of the factors that influence the development and function of M cells; to show the molecules expressed on M cells which appear to be used as immunosurveillance receptors to sample pathogenic microorganisms in the gut; to note how certain pathogens appear to exploit M cells to inject the host; and, finally, how this knowledge is used to specifically "target" antigens to M cells to attempt to improve the efficacy of mucosal vaccines. Recently, substantial progress has been made in our understanding of the factors that influence the development and function of M cells.

The creation in the middle of the 20th century vaccines against poliomyelitis (PM) - inactivated vaccine (IPV) and live oral vaccine from Sabin strains (OPV) with various properties, advantages and disadvantages, but highly effective, made it possible to implement the idea of elimination of PM. Since 1988, the WHO Global Program of PM eradication has achieved remarkable success: the incidence of PM caused by wild poliovirus (PV) has been reduced by 10 thousand times, the number of endemic countries has been reduced to 3, the circulation of wild PV has been discontinued in 4 regions of the world the wild type 2 of PV has been eradicated, and wild type 3 of PV has not been detected for almost 5 years. Under conditions of a decrease in the incidence of PM caused by wild PV, the known negative properties of trivalent OPV made its further use problematic. These negative properties are: 1) the ability to cause post-vaccination complications and 2) the genetic instability of Sabin strains, especially PV of type 2, and their ability under certain conditions (primarily in conditions of low collective immunity to PV) to quickly restore neurovirulence, transforming into circulating vaccine-derived PV (VDPV), capable of causing incidents and outbreaks of PM. In order to reduce the risk associated primarily with type 2 PV, WHO proposed a global switch to the use of bivalent OPV from types 1 and 3, completed in 2016. In 2019, WHO plans to complete eradication of type 1 and 3 PVs, and in 2022 completely abandon the OPV. The precondition for the safety of such tactics is the maintenance of high collective immunity to PM. There are several threats to the security of this strategy. PVs can "silently" circulate in the human population for a long time without clinical manifestations of PM, which, with inadequate epidemiological surveillance can lead to the return of PM. The reintroduction of both wild PV and Sabin strains can occur from institutions that preserve / work with PV. The source of VDPV can be people with primary immunodeficiencies, which continuously excrete PV. It is necessary to maintain surveillance over the PM, expand additional types of surveillance for the PV, strict containment of all PVs. The only way to maintain collective immunity is immunization with trivalent IPV. The current global shortage of IPV poses a significant threat to the world's epidemiological well-being. The solution to the problem is the development of a new generation of safe and effective vaccines, improving the ways of introducing IPV, developing antiviral drugs.

In-depth study of the function and structure of the lymphoid tissue of the gastrointestinal tract and respiratory tract opens wide opportunities for the use of mucosal vaccines to improve immunity to various infectious agents. One such drug is The immunovac-VP4 vaccine containing pathogen-associated molecular structures (PAMSs) of microorganisms. They are the antigens of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus. Discovered in many studies and experiments, the ability of the vaccine to induce innate immunity provides opportunities for prevention and treatment of both infections and allergic diseases, because it promotes the switching of Th2 immune response to Th1. The aim of the study was to study the effectiveness of the complex use of bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4 and allergen-specific immune therapy (ASIT) in pollinosis in children and adults. Materials and methods. Bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4 was used annually, nasal and oral administration in patients before the course of ASIT standardized aqueous-salt solutions of allergens. Results. The therapeutic application of bacterial vaccines, Immunoac-ÂÏ4 before the course ASIT has helped to reduce the frequency of acute respiratory infections in 8,5 times in comparison with the control group. Clinical efficacy of complex treatment according to the results of the survey of patients in 7 years after the start of therapy was 90%. There was a significant decrease In IgG4 to causally significant allergens, General immnunoglobulin E (IgE) and a tendency to decrease IgE. Conclusion. The use of bacterial therapeutic vaccine Immunovac-VP4, which is a natural ligand of toll-like receptors in combination with ASIT, seems to be an effective and promising direction in the treatment of allergic diseases.
