Abstract
Background This study aimed to determine the intention and willingness-to-pay (WTP) of Chinese parents/guardians to vaccinate their children with the EV-71 vaccine. Knowledge levels about hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) and the EV-71 vaccine were also investigated. Methods A cross-sectional, self-administered online survey was conducted between November 2022 and March 2023. A stratified multi-stage random sampling method was used to recruit parents/guardians of children aged 0-5 years in southeastern China. Results A total of 3,626 complete responses were received. The mean knowledge score of HFMD was 9.99 (±4.23) out of a total of 14 points. The majority of the participants reported a somewhat willing intent (58.8%), followed by an extremely willing intent (28.9%). Participants who did not consider the EV-71 vaccine expensive (OR = 2.94, 95%CI 2.45-3.53) perceived that the EV-71 vaccine is effective (OR = 2.73, 95%CI 1.52-4.90), and a high knowledge level of HFMD (OR = 1.90, 95%CI 1.57-2.29) had the highest significant odds of having an extremely willing intent to vaccinate their children with the EV-71 vaccine. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) of WTP for the EV-71 vaccine was CNY¥200/USD$28 (IQR CNY¥100-400/USD$14-56). The highest marginal WTP for the vaccine was mainly influenced by the perceived high cost of the vaccine. Those participants who did not consider the EV-71 vaccine expensive had more than 10 times higher odds of vaccinating their children (OR = 10.86, 95%CI 8.49-13.88). Perceived susceptibility, perceived benefits, and perceived barriers were also significant influencing factors in the highest marginal WTP. Conclusion The findings demonstrate the importance of improving health promotion and reducing the barriers to EV-71 vaccination. Therefore, it is important to improve health promotion and reduce the barriers to EV-71 vaccination.

Abstract
Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is highly prevalent in the Asia Pacific region, particularly in Vietnam. To develop effective interventions and efficient vaccination programs, we inferred the age-time-specific transmission patterns of HFMD serotypes enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), coxsackievirus A6 (CV-A6), coxsackievirus A10 (CV-A10), coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam from a case data collected during 2013-2018 and a serological survey data collected in 2015 and 2017. We proposed a catalytic model framework with good adaptability to incorporate maternal immunity using various mathematical functions. Our results indicate the high-level transmission of CV-A6 and CV-A10 which is not obvious in the case data, due to the variation of disease severity across serotypes. Our results provide statistical evidence supporting the strong association between severe illness and CV-A6 and EV-A71 infections. The HFMD dynamic pattern presents a cyclical pattern with large outbreaks followed by a decline in subsequent years. Additionally, we identify the age group with highest risk of infection as 1-2 years and emphasise the risk of future outbreaks as over 50% of children aged 6-7 years were estimated to be susceptible to CV-A16 and EV-A71. Our study highlights the importance of multivalent vaccines and active surveillance for different serotypes, supports early vaccination prior to 1 year old, and points out the potential utility for vaccinating children older than 5 years old in Vietnam.

Abstract
Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) can induce severe neurological complications and even fatal encephalitis in children, and it has caused several large outbreaks in Taiwan since 1998. We previously generated VP1 codon-deoptimized (VP1-CD) reverse genetics (rg) EV-A71 viruses (rgEV-A71s) that harbor a high-fidelity (HF) 3D polymerase. These VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71s showed lower replication kinetics in vitro and decreased virulence in an Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mouse model of EV-A71 infection, while still retaining their antigenicity in comparison to the wild-type virus. In this study, we aimed to further investigate the humoral and cellular immune responses elicited by VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71s to assess the potential efficacy of these EV-A71 vaccine candidates. Following intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71s in mice, we observed a robust induction of EV-A71-specific neutralizing IgG antibodies in the antisera after 21 days. Splenocytes isolated from VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71s-immunized mice exhibited enhanced proliferative activities and cytokine production (IL-2, IFN-γ, IL-4, IL-6, and TNF-α) upon re-stimulation with VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71, as compared to control mice treated with adjuvant only. Importantly, administration of antisera from VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71s-immunized mice protected against lethal EV-A71 challenge in neonatal mice. These findings highlight that our generated VP1-CD-HF rgEV-A71 viruses are capable of inducing both cellular and humoral immune responses, supporting their potential as next-generation EV-A71 vaccines for combating EV-A71 infection.IMPORTANCEEV-A71 can cause severe neurological diseases and cause death in young children. Here, we report the development of synthetic rgEV-A71s with the combination of codon deoptimization and high-fidelity (HF) substitutions that generate genetically stable reverse genetics (rg) viruses as potential attenuated vaccine candidates. Our work provides insight into the development of low-virulence candidate vaccines through a series of viral genetic editing for maintaining antigenicity and genome stability and suggests a strategy for the development of an innovative next-generation vaccine against EV-A71.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human enteroviruses A71 (EV-A71) and D68 (EV-D68) are the suspected causative agents of hand-foot-and-mouth disease, aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, acute flaccid myelitis, and acute flaccid paralysis in children. Until now, no cure nor mucosal vaccine existed for EV-A71 and EV-D68. Novel mucosal bivalent vaccines are highly important for preventing EV-A71 and EV-D68 infections. METHODS In this study, formalin-inactivated EV-A71 and EV-D68 were used as antigens, while PS-G, a polysaccharide from Ganoderma lucidum, was used as an adjuvant. Natural polysaccharides have the characteristics of intrinsic immunomodulation, biocompatibility, low toxicity, and safety. Mice were immunized intranasally with PBS, EV-A71, EV-D68, or EV-A71 + EV-D68, with or without PS-G as an adjuvant. RESULTS The EV-A71 + EV-D68 bivalent vaccine generated considerable EV-A71- and EV-D68-specific IgG and IgA titres in the sera, nasal washes, saliva, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and feces. These antibodies neutralized EV-D68 and EV-A71 infectivity. They also cross-neutralized infections by different EV-D68 and EV-A71 sub-genotypes. Furthermore, compared with the PBS group, EV-A71 + EV-D68 + PS-G-vaccinated mice exhibited an increased number of EV-D68- and EV-A71-specific IgA- and IgG-producing cells. In addition, T-cell proliferative responses, and IFN-γ and IL-17 secretion in the spleen were substantially induced when PS-G was used as an adjuvant with EV-A71 + EV-D68. Finally, in vivo challenge experiments demonstrated that the immune sera induced by EV-A71 + EV-D68 + PS-G conferred protection in neonate mice against lethal EV-A71 and EV-D68 challenges as indicated by the increased survival rate and decreased clinical score and viral RNA tissue expression. Taken together, all EV-A71/EV-D68 + PS-G-immunized mice developed potent specific humoral, mucosal, and cellular immune responses to EV-D68 and EV-A71 and were protected against them. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrated that PS-G can be used as a potential adjuvant for EV-A71 and EV-D68 bivalent mucosal vaccines. Our results provide useful information for the further preclinical and clinical development of a mucosal bivalent enterovirus vaccine against both EV-A71 and EV-D68 infections.

Abstract
PURPOSE EV71 (Enterovirus 71) is a major causative agent of the outbreaks of HFMD (hand, foot, and mouth disease), which is associated with neurological damage caused by permeability disruption of BBB (blood-brain barrier). HMGB1 (high-mobility group box 1) is a widely expressed nuclear protein that triggers host inflammatory responses. Our work aimed to explore the function of HMGB1 in EV71 infection and its contributions to EV71-related BBB damage. METHODS HeLa cells, HT-29 cells and AG6 mice were used to explore the translocation of HMGB1 in EV71 infection in vitro and in vivo. The roles of released HMGB1 on EV71 replication and associated inflammatory cytokines were investigated using recombinant HMGB1 in HeLa cells. The mechanisms of released HMGB1 in EV71-induced BBB injury were explored using recombinant HMGB1 and anti-HMGB1 neutralizing antibodies in monolayer HCMECs (immortalized human brain microvascular endothelial cells) and AG6 mice brain. RESULTS EV71 induced HMGB1 nucleocytoplasmic translocation and extracellular release in vitro and in vivo. Released HMGB1 acted as an inflammatory mediator in EV71 infection rather than affecting viral replication in vitro. Released HMGB1 disrupted BBB integrity by enhancing VE-cadherin phosphorylation at tyrosine 685 in HCMECs, and reducing total VE-cadherin levels in HCMECs and AG6 mice in EV71 infection. And released HMGB1 induced an increase in activated astrocytes. Neutralization of HMGB1 reversed the increased endothelial hyperpermeability and phosphorylation of VE-cadherin in HCMECs. CONCLUSION The inflammatory mediator HMGB1 released by EV71 exacerbated BBB disruption by enhancing VE-cadherin phosphorylation, which in turn aggravated EV71-induced neuroinflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vaccine stability is an important issue for vaccine development, which affects whether the vaccine product is effective within a certain period of time in each progress. Hand, foot, and mouth diseases (HFMD) is an epidemic disease in young children usually caused by Enterovirus A group viruses, and the Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) had caused several pandemics and public health issues around the world. After two decades of research and development, formalin-inactivated EV-A71 (FI-EV-A71) vaccines are the first to complete the phase III clinical trials for protection against EV-A71 infection. Currently, the shelf life of FI-EV-A71 vaccine product is set to be within 18 months, but the stability and the effectiveness of the FI-EV-A71 whole virion when stored long-term at low temperature remains undetermined. METHODS Assessing the long-term storage properties of viral particles facilitates flexibility in manufacturing of vaccine products. In this study, the stability profiles of FI-EV-A71 vaccine lots and bulks after long-term of low temperature storage were analyzed by protein tests, particle measurement and animal immunization study. RESULTS After over ten years of storage, the reduction of protein concentration in the FI-EV-A71 bulk samples is less than 30 % and the antigenic content remained in a suspended, particulate state. Both the packed FI-EV-A71 final vaccine products and the FI-EV-A71 antigens adjuvant premix bulk could elicit strong neutralizing responses in mice. CONCLUSION After ten years of low temperature storage, the FI-EV-A71 vaccine still presents decent stability and good immunogenicity.

Abstract
Coxsackievirus A10 (CV-A10) is a prevailing causative agent of hand-foot-mouth disease, necessitating the isolation and adaptation of appropriate strains in cells allowed for human vaccine development. In this study, amino acid sequences of CV-A10 strains with different cell tropism on RD and Vero cells were compared. Various amino acids on the structural and non-structural proteins related to cell tropism were identified. The reverse genetic systems of several CV-A10 strains with RD+/Vero- and RD+/Vero+ cell tropism were developed, and a set of CV-A10 recombinants were produced. The binding, entry, uncoating, and proliferation steps in the life cycle of these viruses were evaluated. P1 replacement of CV-A10 strains with different cell tropism revealed the pivotal role of the structural proteins in cell tropism. Further, seven amino acid substitutions in VP2 and VP1 were introduced to further investigate their roles played in cell tropism. These mutations cooperated in the growth of CV-A10 in Vero cells. Particularly, the valine to isoleucine mutation at the position VP1-236 (V1236I) was found to significantly restrict viral uncoating in Vero cells. Co-immunoprecipitation assays showed that the release of viral RNA from the KREMEN1 receptor-binding virions was restricted in r0195-V1236I compared with the parental strain r0195 (a RD+/Vero+ strain). Overall, this study highlights the dominant effect of structural proteins in CV-A10 adaption in Vero cells and the importance of V1236 in viral uncoating, providing a foundation for the mechanism study of CV-A10 cell tropism, and facilitating the development of vaccine candidates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maternal transplacental antibody is an important origins of passive immunity against neonatal enterovirus infection. Echovirus 11 (E11) and coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) are important types causing neonatal infections. There were few investigations of enterovirus D68 (EVD68) infection in neonates. We aimed to investigate the serostatus of cord blood for these three enteroviruses and evaluate the factors associated with seropositivity. METHODS We enrolled 222 parturient (gestational age 34-42 weeks) women aged 20-46 years old between January and October 2021. All participants underwent questionnaire investigation and we collected the cord blood to measure the neutralization antibodies against E11, CVB3 and EVD68. RESULTS The cord blood seropositive rates were 18% (41/222), 60% (134/232) and 95% (211/222) for E11, CVB3 and EVD68, respectively (p < 0.001). Geometric mean titers were 3.3 (95% CI 2.9-3.8) for E11, 15.9 (95% CI 12.5-20.3) for CVB3 and 109.9 (95% CI 92.4-131.6) for EVD68. Younger parturient age (33.8 ± 3.6 versus 35.2 ± 4.4, p = 0.04) was related to E11 seropositivity. Neonatal sex, gestational age and birth body weight were not significantly different between the seropositive group and the seronegative group. CONCLUSION Cord blood seropositive rate and geometric mean titer of E11 were very low, so a large proportion of newborns are susceptible to E11. The circulation of E11 was low after 2019 in Taiwan. A large cohort of immune naïve newborns existed currently due to lack of protective maternal antibodies. It is imminent to monitor the epidemiology of neonates with enterovirus infections and strengthen the relevant preventive policies.

Abstract
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) is the most common enteroviral infection in South-East Asia. When evaluating the role of enterovirus 71 (EVA71) as an etiological agent of infectious disease in South Vietnam, we revealed a high proportion of EVA71 among identified species A enteroviruses found in 3542 samples from HFMD cases; 125 samples from cases of enteroviral meningitis; and 130 samples from acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases. These represent 50%, 54.8%, and 51.5%, respectively. According to molecular analysis, 90% of EVA71 were attributed to genotype C4 and 10% were attributed to genotype B5. The predominance of EVA71 circulation among the population proves the need to strengthen surveillance (with monitoring of enterovirus circulation for facilitation of HFMD outbreak prediction) and to increase the effectiveness of preventative measures by the implementation of vaccination against EVA71-associated infections. A phase III trial of a Taiwanese vaccine (EV71vac) in Taiwan and South Vietnam showed its safety, tolerability, and efficacy in children aged 2-71 months. This B4 genotype-based vaccine, which features cross-protection against B5 and C4 genotypes, and other existing EV71 vaccines can serve as a good approach to solving the HFMD problem, which is so important for Vietnam.

Abstract
A series of 2-Benzoxyl-Phenylpyridine derivatives were evaluated for their potential antiviral activities against EV71. The preliminary assays indicated that some of these compounds exhibited excellent antiviral effects on EV71, they could effectively inhibit virus-induced cytopathic effects (CPEs), reduce progeny viral yields, and present similar or better antiviral activities compared to the positive control drug ribavirin. Among these derivatives, compounds WY7, WY13 and WY14 showed the most potency against EV71. Investigation of the underlying mechanism of action revealed that these compounds target EV71 replication in cells post infection, they could profoundly inhibit viral RNA replication and protein synthesis, and inhibit virus-induced cell apoptosis. Further experiments demonstrated that compound WY7 potently inhibited the activity of the EV71 3C protease (3Cpro), and to some extent, it affected the activity of 3D polymerase (3Dpol), thus blocking viral replication, but not the activity of the 2A proteinase (2Apro). Modeling of the molecular binding of the 3Cpro-WY7 complex revealed that compound WY7 was predicted to insert into the substrate-binding pocket of EV71 3Cpro, blocking substrate recognition and thereby inhibiting EV71 3Cpro activity. These results indicate that these compounds might be feasible therapeutic agents against EV71 infection and that these compounds may provide promising lead scaffolds for the further design and synthesis of potential antiviral agents.

Abstract
Equitable global access to vaccines requires we overcome challenges associated with complex immunization schedules and their associated economic burdens that hinder delivery in under resourced environments. The rabies vaccine, for example, requires multiple immunizations for effective protection and each dose is cost prohibitive, and therefore inaccessibility disproportionately impacts low- and middle-income countries. In this work we developed an injectable hydrogel depot technology for sustained delivery of commercial inactivated rabies virus vaccines. In a mouse model, we showed that a single immunization of a hydrogel-based rabies vaccine elicited comparable antibody titers to a standard prime-boost bolus regimen of a commercial rabies vaccine, despite these hydrogel vaccines comprising only half of the total dose delivered in the bolus control. Moreover, these hydrogel-based vaccines elicited similar antigen-specific T-cell responses and neutralizing antibody responses compared to the bolus vaccine. Notably, we demonstrated that while addition of a potent clinical TLR4 agonist adjuvant to the gels slightly improved binding antibody responses, inclusion of this adjuvant to the inactivated virion vaccine was detrimental to neutralizing responses. Taken together, these results suggest that these hydrogels can enable an effective regimen compression and dosesparing strategy for improving global access to vaccines.

Abstract
Enterovirus A71 (EV-A71)-related hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) imposes a substantial clinical burden in the Asia Pacific region. To inform policy on the introduction of the EV-A71 vaccine into the National Immunization Programme, we investigated the seroepidemiological characteristics of EV-A71 in two prospective cohorts of children in southern China conducted between 2013 and 2018. Our results show that maternal antibody titres declined rapidly in neonates, with over half becoming susceptible to EV-A71 at 1 month of age. Between 6 months and 2 years of age, over 80% of study participants were susceptible, while one third remained susceptible at 5 years old. The highest incidence of EV-A71 infections was observed in children aged 5-6 months. Our findings support EV-A71 vaccination before 6 months for birth cohorts in southern China, potentially with a one-time catch-up vaccination for children 6 months-5 years old. More regionally representative longitudinal seroepidemiological studies are needed to further validate these findings.

Abstract
Virions produced from cell culture is the primary source for production of formalin-inactivated whole virus vaccines for enteroviruses. EV-A71 particles produced from culture system comprise two major types, the immature/empty (E)-particle and the mature/full (F)-particle, which both exhibit low isoelectric point (pI) values but have distinct differences in infectivity and immunogenicity. Although EV-A71 particles can conventionally be separated into E-particle and F-particle using sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation, this procedure is cumbersome and difficult to put into practice for vaccine production. Methods based on ion-exchange chromatography have been exploited to improve the purification efficacy; however, none of them are capable of separating the E- and F-particles efficiently. In this study, we aimed to develop an approach to isolate and purify the highly immunogenic mature EV-A71 particles. By applying a step gradient elution procedure, we successfully isolated the viral structure protein VP0-cleaved particles of EV-A71 from a mixture of cultured viral solution using the Q-membrane anion-exchange chromatography. The elution started with 0.1x phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution while increasing the percentage of 1x PBS containing 1M NaCl in sequential steps. By this procedure, the VP0-cleaved mature particles and VP0-uncleaved immature particles of EV-A71 could be separated into different fractions in Q-membrane with gradually increased NaCl concentration in elution buffer. The purified VP0-cleaved particles were shown to have characteristics equivalent to those of the highly infectious F-particles of EV-A71. The overall recovery rate for the mature EV-A71 particles by Q-membrane is 56% and its purity was shown to be equivalent to those isolated by the sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. Our approach provides a simple and efficient purification method for recovering mature, highly infectious virus particles from the EV-A71 culture bulk.

Abstract
Enteroviruses (EVs) are major pathogens in young infants. These viruses were traditionally classified into the following four subgenera: polio, coxsackie A and B, and echoviruses. Now that poliomyelitis seems to be controlled in most parts of the world, coxsackie and echoviruses are gaining more attention because (i) the structural and pathophysiological similarities and (ii) the consequent possibilities in translational medicine. Enteroviruses are transmitted mainly by oral and fecal-oral routes; the clinical manifestations include a viral prodrome including fever, feeding intolerance, and lethargy, which may be followed by exanthema; aseptic meningitis and encephalitis; pleurodynia; myopericarditis; and multi-system organ failure. Laboratory diagnosis is largely based on reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, cell culture, and serology. Prevention and treatment can be achieved using vaccination, and administration of immunoglobulins and antiviral drugs. In this article, we have reviewed the properties of these viruses, their clinical manifestations, and currently available methods of detection, treatment, and prognosis.
