Abstract
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is one of the most appealing radiotherapy modalities, whose localization can be further improved by the employment of boron-containing nanoformulations, but the fabrication of biologically friendly, water-dispersible nanoparticles (NPs) with high boron content and favorable physicochemical characteristics still presents a great challenge. Here, we explore the use of elemental boron (B) NPs (BNPs) fabricated using the methods of pulsed laser ablation in liquids as sensitizers of BNCT. Depending on the conditions of laser-ablative synthesis, the used NPs were amorphous (a-BNPs) or partially crystallized (pc-BNPs) with a mean size of 20 nm or 50 nm, respectively. Both types of BNPs were functionalized with polyethylene glycol polymer to improve colloidal stability and biocompatibility. The NPs did not initiate any toxicity effects up to concentrations of 500 µg/mL, based on the results of MTT and clonogenic assay tests. The cells with BNPs incubated at a 10B concentration of 40 µg/mL were then irradiated with a thermal neutron beam for 30 min. We found that the presence of BNPs led to a radical enhancement in cancer cell death, namely a drop in colony forming capacity of SW-620 cells down to 12.6% and 1.6% for a-BNPs and pc-BNPs, respectively, while the relevant colony-forming capacity for U87 cells dropped down to 17%. The effect of cell irradiation by neutron beam uniquely was negligible under these conditions. Finally, to estimate the dose and regimes of irradiation for future BNCT in vivo tests, we studied the biodistribution of boron under intratumoral administration of BNPs in immunodeficient SCID mice and recorded excellent retention of boron in tumors. The obtained data unambiguously evidenced the effect of a neutron therapy enhancement, which can be attributed to efficient BNP-mediated generation of α-particles.

Abstract
Orthotopic transplantation of glioblastoma cells in the brain of laboratory mice is a common animal model for studying brain tumors. It was shown that 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) enables monitoring of the tumor's occurrence and its development during therapy based on the ratio of several metabolites. However, in studying new approaches to the therapy of glioblastoma in the model of orthotopic xenotransplantation of glioma cells into the brain of mice, it is necessary to understand which metabolites are produced by a growing tumor and which are the result of tumor cells injection along the modeling of the pathology. Currently, there are no data on the dynamic metabolic processes in the brain that occur after the introduction of glioblastoma cells into the brain of mice. In addition, there is a lack of data on the delayed effects of invasive brain damage. Therefore, this study investigates the long-term dynamics of the neurometabolic profile, assessed using 1H MRS, after intracranial injection of a culture medium used in orthotopic modeling of glioma in mice. Levels of N-acetylaspartate, N-acetylaspartylglutamic acid, myoinositol, taurine, glutathione, the sum of glycerophosphocholine and phosphocholine, glutamic acid (Glu), glutamine (Gln), and gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) indicate patterns of neurometabolites in the early stage after intracranial injection similar to brain trauma ones. Most of the metabolites, with the exception of Gln, Glu and GABA, returned to their original values on day 28 after injection. A progressive increase in the Glu/Gln and Glu/GABA ratio up to 28 days after surgery potentially indicates an impaired turnover of these metabolites or increased neurotransmission. Thus, the data indicate that the recovery processes are largely completed on day 28 after the traumatic event in the brain tissue, leaving open the question of the neurotransmitter system impairment. Consequently, when using animal models of human glioma, researchers should clearly distinguish between which changes in neurometabolites are a response to the injection of cancer cells into the brain, and which processes may indicate the early development of a brain tumor. It is important to keep this in mind when modeling human glioblastoma in mice and monitoring new treatments. In addition, these results may be important in the development of approaches for non-invasive diagnostics of traumatic brain injury as well as recovery and rehabilitation processes of patients after certain brain surgeries.

Abstract
Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) can become an instrument for patients with malignant neoplasms of the rectum and colon. Here we evaluate the effectiveness of BNCT performed at the accelerator based epithermal neutron source at G. I. Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, Siberian Division of Russian Academy of Sciences, in relation to subcutaneous xenografts of human colon adenocarcinoma SW-620 in SCID mice. Utilization of BNCT with boronоphenylalanine (BPA) and sodium borocaptate (BSH), which were injected intravenously into the retroorbital sinus, resulted in a significant decrease in tumor volumes compared to the control group (no radiation).

Abstract
Our previous study demonstrated that manganese oxide nanoparticles (MnO NP) selectively destroyed U-87MG and U251 human glioblastoma cells in vitro. MnO NP were synthesized and studied by electron microscopy. Their antitumor properties were studied in vivo on the model of immunodeficient SCID mice with subcutaneous xenografts of U-87MG human glioblastoma. The mice were injected subcutaneously with MnO NP in doses of 0.96 and 1.92 mg/kg (calculated for Mn) 3 days a week over 3 weeks. In was shown that MnO NP in these doses significantly suppressed the growth of U-87MG glioblastoma xenografts: on day 21 from the start of the treatment, the tumor growth inhibition index was 61.1 and 99.22%, respectively. These results indicate the necessity of the further studies of MnO NP as a potential oncolytic agent for the therapy of human glioblastomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Oncolytic adenoviruses are promising therapeutic agents against both the bulk of tumor cells and cancer stem cells. The present study intended to test the oncolytic capability of adenovirus serotype 6 (Ad6), which has a lower seroprevalence and hepatotoxicity relatively to adenovirus 5 (Ad5), against the glioblastoma and its cancer stem cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Oncolytic efficacy of Ad6 was compared to widespread Ad5 both in vitro and in vivo, using the U87 and U251 human glioblastoma cell lines and subcutaneously transplanted U87 cells in SCID mice, respectively. RESULTS Ad6 had a dose-dependent cytotoxicity toward glioblastoma cells in vitro and its intratumoral injections lead to a significant (p<0.05) decrease in volume of U87 xenografts, similarly to Ad5. Based on the innate capability of glioblastoma cancer stem cells to internalize a fluorescent-labeled double-stranded DNA probe, the spatial localization of these cells was estimated and it was shown that the number of cancer stem cells tended to decrease under adenovirus therapy as compared to the control group. CONCLUSION Ad6 was shown to be a promising agent for treating glioblastomas.

Abstract
Nowadays there is growing recognition of the fact that biological systems have a greater impact on nanoparticle target delivery in tumors than nanoparticle design. Here we investigate the targeted delivery of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles conjugated with pH-low-insertion peptide (MNP-pHLIP) on orthotopically induced MDA-MB-231 human breast carcinoma xenografts of varying volumes as a model of cancer progression. Using in vivo magnetic resonance imaging and subsequent determination of iron content in tumor samples by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy we found that MNP-pHLIP accumulation depends on tumor volume. Transmission electron microscopy, histological analysis and immunohistochemical staining of tumor samples suggest that blood vessel distribution is the key factor in determining the success of the accumulation of nanoparticles in tumors.

Abstract
The possibility of glioblastoma virotherapy at intravenous injection of the LIVP-GFP recombinant virus was studied in experimental model of orthotopic xenotransplantation of human glioblastoma cell line U87 to SCID laboratory mice. The LIVP-GFP recombinant virus deficient for thymidine kinase exhibited a significantly greater oncolytic capacity than the original LIVP virus, and an intravenous injection of LIVP-GFP at the early stages of tumorigenesis in mouse brain in most cases resulted in the lysis of the tumor.

Abstract
Straightforward and reliable tools for in vivo imaging of tumors can benefit the studies of cancer development, as well as contribute to successful diagnosis and treatment of cancer. (19)F NMR offers an exceptional quantitative way of in vivo imaging of the infused agents because of the lack of (19)F signals from the endogenous molecules in the body. The purpose of this study is to develop molecular probes with appropriate NMR characteristics and the biocompatibility for in vivo applications using (19)F MRI. We have studied the reaction between perfluorotoluene and homocysteine thiolactone resulting in the formation of N-substituted homocysteine thiolactone derivative. It has been shown that the reaction occurs selectively at the para position. This fluorine-labeled homocysteine thiolactone has been employed for the introduction of a perfluorotoluene group as a (19)F-containing tag into human serum albumin. The modified protein has been studied in terms of its ability to aggregate and promote the formation of free radicals. By comparing the properties of N-perfluorotoluene-homocystamide of albumin with N-homocysteinylated albumin, it has been revealed that blocking of the alpha-amino group of the homocysteine residue in the fluorinated albumin conjugate inhibits the dangerous aggregation process, as well as free radical formation. A dual-labeled albumin-based molecular probe for (19)F MRI and fluorescence microscopy has been obtained by functionalizing the protein with both maleimide of a fluorescent dye and a fluorinated thiolactone derivative. The incubation of cells with this conjugate did not reveal any significant reduction in cell viability with respect to the parent albumin. The perfluorotoluene-labeled albumin has been demonstrated to act as a promising agent for in vivo (19)F MRI.

Abstract
Toxicity and antiviral activity of aqueous extracts from higher mushrooms such as Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler (shiitake), Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq.) P. Kumm. (oyster), Inonotus obliquus (Ach. ex Pers.) Pilát (chaga), Hydnellum compactum (Pers.) P. Karst. (compact tooth) were studied. In doses of 0.8 to 4.0 mg (dry weight) per mouse administered orally or intraperitoneally the extracts showed no acute toxicity. When the dose of the chaga extract was increased to 20 mg per mouse, a half of the animals died. Intraperitoneal administration of the aqueous extracts in a dose of 0.4-2 mg per mouse prior to the contamination by a single LD50 of Herpes simplex type 2 provided 100-percent survival of the animals exposed to the Lentinula edodes or Pleurotus ostreatus extracts and 90-percent survival of the animals exposed to the Inonotus obliquus or Hydnellum compactum extracts.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Currently one of the most promising approaches in development of cancer virotherapy is based on the ability of oncolytic viruses to selective infection and lysis of tumor cells. AIM The goal of the study was to identify and evaluate perspective oncolytic viruses capable of selectively destroying human glioma cells. PATIENTS AND METHODS Original GB2m, GA14m and GB22m glioma cell cultures derived from patients were used for evaluating in vitro oncolytic activity of some typical orthopoxviruses, adenoviruses and parvoviruses. RESULTS The oncolytic activity in the human glioma cell models was confirmed for LIVP and WR strains of vaccinia virus, Adel2 and Ad2del strains with deletions within E1B/55K gene and derived from human adenoviruses type 2 and 5, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We consider these oncolytic viruses as promising agents for the treatment of human malignant glioma.

Abstract
Despite the advances of modern medicine, malignant glioblastoma cure remains an elusive goal. Both the invasive nature and location in vital areas of the brain make this type of tumors difficult for surgical treatment, while the current adjuvant therapy is not as successful as expected. Frequent recurrence and invasiveness of malignant gliomas is due to resistance of glioma stem cells to conventional radiation and chemotherapy. Technological advances in constructing recombinant viruses have allowed creating strains with high oncolytic activity toward glial tumors. Many of these strains have passed Phase I of clinical trials and demonstrated high safety. Despite the obvious potential of the approach, efficiency of the existing strains is still far from being sufficient for effectively curing the disease and require further improvement. The review summarizes results obtained with the most successful variants of oncolytic viruses that come down to the clinical trials and discusses the prospects for new approaches in virotherapy of malignant gliomas.

Abstract
The splenocytes isolated from the mice immunized with wild-type or guinea pig-adapted Ebola virus strains were used to obtain hybridoma collections. Investigation of the monoclonal antibodies (mAb) obtained to one of the strains to another revealed antigenic interstrain differences in nucleoprotein and VP40. It is interesting that the differences were found in the hydridoma collection obtained against the wild-type strain. The mAbs produced by hydridomas to the adapted strain were found to equally well the antigens of both strains.

Abstract
Sixty preparations of basidiomycetes (Ganoderma, Lentinus, Pleurotus, Laetiporus, Polyporus, Inonotus, Flammulina, Grifola, Trametes) were investigated with respect to their toxicity for Vero cells and antiviral activity. The antiviral activity was estimated with the use of the West Nile virus and type 2 Herpes simplex. It was shown that 11 preparations of Ganoderma, Lentinus and Pleurotus completely inhibited the infective activity in doses not lower than 1000 TCD50 (the West Nile virus) and 100 PPU (type 2 Herpes simplex). The antiviral activity of the preparations was likely due to the content of polysaccharides or their derivatives in the composition. It increased with increasing of the quantity of the total polysaccharide fraction or its concentration.

Abstract
The significant antigenic crossovers between West Nile virus (WNV) and tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) make the immunological diagnosis of these diseases difficult. The avidicity index of virus-specific class G immunoglobulins (IgG) was used as a criterion for the differentiation of an immune response to WNV or TBEV in patients and convalescents. The panels of the sera sampled from patients with tick-borne encephalitis and convalescents in the Novosibirsk and Tomsk Regions and in the Primorye Territory and from those with West Nile fever and convalescents in the Volgograd Region. The determination of the avidicity index could establish that in the convalescents' sera, the avidicity index of virus-specific IgG was much higher than that in the patients' sera in the acute phase of infection. In relation to heteroantigen, the avidicity index and the positivity coefficient were substantially less than those in the reaction with homoantigen. The findings have indicated that the determination of the value of the avidicity index of virus-specific IgG and the positivity coefficient makes it possible to differentiate West Nile fever and tick-borne encephalitis with confidence on the basis of solid-phase enzyme immunoassay in determining virus-specific IgG in the sera of patients and convalescents in different regions of Russia.

Abstract
We have developed a panel of 16 hybridomas secreting neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (Nt- MAbs) to Russian isolate (LEIV-Vlg99-27889-human) of the West Nile virus (WNV). Most of the Nt-Mabs were either IgG1 or IgG3 subtypes. Nine of the 16 neutralizing MAbs detected WNV protein E in Western blot. According to their Nt-activities, Western blot results and cross-reactivity, the MAbs were divided into four groups. Monoclonal antibodies from group I were able to neutralize WNV strains Vlg99-27889, Vlg00-27924, Hp-94, A-1640, A-72, Tur-2914, and Eg101. The Nt-activity of MAbs from groups II-IV towards these WNV strains was variable. Recombinant fragments E(1-180), E(1-321), and E(260-466) of protein E were used for preliminary mapping of domains recognized by Nt-MAbs. Only five Nt-MAbs were able to react with the recombinant polypeptides. The MAbs 9E2, 7G9, 11G3, and 7E6 from group Ia recognized Nt-epitope(s) between amino acids 321 and 466 of protein E and Nt-MAb 4F11 (group III) reacted with residues 1-180. This demonstrates that two discrete regions of protein E are involved in neutralization of WNV. Our data on immunochemical, biological activities of Nt-MAbs and mapping of Nt-epitopes using recombinant polypeptides suggest at least 13 different Nt-epitopes for WNV.

Abstract
An extensive collection of 125 rat hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) to ectromelia virus (EV) polypeptide (Poxviridae family, Orhtopoxvirus genus) was set up. A significant portion of Mabs (37 types) recognized epitopes of the 14 kDa polypeptide as well as the 37 and 35 kDa polypeptides. However, a majority of Mabs interacted with conformation-dependent epitopes, which were destroyed in immunoprecipitation. One hundred and thirteen of Mabs cross-interacted with antigenic determinants of vaccinia viruses (VV), cowpox virus (CPV) and smallpox virus (SPV); only 12 of them were found to be specific to EV. The Mabs antigenic activity was tested for 46 types of cross-reactivity Mabs in VV neutralization on Vero cells. Only the 112H12, 113D5, 113F8, 122H9 and 125G9 Mabs, which were specific to the kDa 14 polypeptide (gene A30L EV), had the neutralizing activity. The 122H9 and 125G9 Mabs were able to neutralize SPV. Therefore, it can be assumed that the 14 kDa polypeptide carries, on its surface, cross-reactivity neutralizing epitopes typical of orthopoxviruses.

Abstract
cDNA of fragments of gene VP35 of the Ebola virus (EV) were expressed in vector pQE30 for the purpose of isolation of recombinant fragments of protein VP35. Five short affinity-purified fragments of the EV VP35 protein were analyzed, by using the methods of IEA and immunoblotting, with polyclonal antiviral sera (PAS) against EV and with hybrid monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) IC6 and 6F7 specific to EV VP35 protein. All fragments of protein VP35 with an intact N-terminal region and removed C-terminal region were found to interact effectively with PAS and with Mabs IC6 and 6F7. Rec86N, the smallest of the above fragments, comprised the initial 86 amino acid residues of the VP35 N-terminal region. A removal of 36 amino acid residues from the N-terminal region of Rec310N, the largest recombinant fragment, resulted in a loss of interaction with Mabs IC6 and 6F7, while the interaction with polyclonal antibodies remained intact. The obtained results show that the initial 86 amino acid residues of the N-terminal region of EV VP35 are of the key importance in forming the antigenic structure of VP35 and that they contain multiple B-cell epitopes. Finally, the initial 36 amino acids of VP35 predetermine the shaping-up of two antigenic determinants for Mabs IC6 and 6F7.

Abstract
Five types of anti-VP35 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), four immune sera against Marburg virus (MBGV), and 11 overlapping recombinant VP35 fragments were used to map the epitopes for VP35 of MBGV. The purified full-size recombinant VP35 was highly immunogenic and retained the B-cell epitopes that were identical to those of the viral VP35. Two major sites on VP35 and a set of truncated VP35 fragments were found by use of an enzyme immunoassay and immunoblot. Site I was located in a region between amino acids 1 and 174 of the VP35 sequence, and only polyclonal antibodies (PAbs) against MBGV recognized epitopes at this site. Site II was mapped by use of anti-VP35 MAbs to the region between amino acid residues 167 and 278 of VP35. Amino acids 252-278 of VP35 might be involved in the formation of the epitopes for MAbs. B-cell epitopes were not found on the C-terminus of VP35 by use of PAbs or MAbs.

Abstract
Antigenic structure of Ebola virus (EV) (strain Mayinga) nucleocapsid protein VP35 was analyzed using monoclonal antibodies to EV VP35 and polyclonal antibodies to EV. EV protein VP35 was shown to have antigenic sites inducing the production of antibodies in animals. For better characterization of protein VP35 antigenic structure. EV gene encoding the full-length VP35 was cloned in vector pQE31 as a recombinant fusion protein (rec.VP35). The antigenic and immunogenic properties of rec.VP35 and EV VP35 were compared by ELISA and Western blot analysis with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. Antibodies of positive sera and VP35 MAbs cross reacted with the analyzed antigens. The topography of epitopes on EV VP35 and rec.VP35 was studied using MAbs and polyclonal antibodies to rec.VP35 in a competitive antibody binding assay. Two epitopes of one site were identified on these proteins. These epitopes are present on infectious virion protein VP35 and are stable during physicochemical exposures.

Abstract
The full-length gene for Marburg virus (MV) nucleoprotein (NP) was cloned in prokaryotic pQE32 under the control of the T5 promoter and in eukaryotic pTM1 under the control of the promoter for T7 RNA polymerase. Recombinant NP was synthesized in Escherichia coli and in human kidney cell line 293 cotransfected with recombinant vaccinia virus vTF7-3 expressing T7 RNA polymerase. On evidence of electron microscopy with immune detection, recombinant NP formed tubules of two types in E. coli and of a single type in cell line 293. ELISA and immunoblotting with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies revealed common antigenic determinants in recombinant NP and natural MV NP.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific to Marburg virus (MBG), Popp strain, have been previously produced and characterized by indirect ELISA. Protein specificity of MAbs was determined by immunoblotting with SDS-PAGE proteins of MBG: one to NP, four to VP40, and protein specificity of one antibody was not detected. The effect of MAb binding to protein epitopes on viral functions was investigated in vitro and in vivo. None of antibodies neutralized the virus in the neutralization test in vitro, but MAb 5G9.G11 and 5G8.H5 specific to MBG VP40 protein were active in antibody-dependent complement mediated lysis of virus-infected cells. In vivo these antibodies (5G9.G11 and 5G8.H5) protected guinea pigs from lethal MBG infection after passive inoculation. Studies of biological activity and analysis of epitope specificity of MAb-antiVP40 by competitive ELISA showed that 2 of 7 epitopes of VP40 protein of MBG induce the production of protective antibodies. Hence, MAbs 5G9.G11 and 5G8.H5 reacting with MBG VP40 protein caused lysis of virus infected cells in the presence of the complement in vitro and protected guinea pigs from MBG infection by passive inoculation.

Abstract
A statistical approach is presented to model the kinetics of cell distribution in the process of ligand-receptor binding on cell surfaces. The approach takes into account the variation of the amount of receptors on cells assuming the homogeneity of monovalent binding sites and ligand molecules. The analytical expressions for the kinetics of cell distribution have been derived in the reaction-limited approximation. In order to demonstrate the applicability of the mathematical model, the kinetics of binding the rabbit, anti-mouse IgG with Ig-receptors of the murine hybridoma cells has been measured. Anti-mouse IgG was labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC). The kinetics of cell distribution on ligand-receptor complexes was observed during the reaction process by real-time measuring of the fluorescence and light-scattering traces of individual cells with the scanning flow cytometer. The experimental data were fitted by the mathematical model in order to obtain the binding rate constant and the initial cell distribution on the amount of receptors.

Abstract
Thirteen hybridoma strains producing monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) to Ebola virus were prepared by fusion of NS-O mouse myeloma cells with splenocytes of BALB/c mice immunized with purified and inactivated Ebola virus (Mayinga strain). Mabs directed against viral proteins were selected and tested by ELISA. Protein specificity of 13 Mabs was determined by immunoblotting with SDS-PAGE proteins of Ebola virus. Of these, 11 hybridoma Mabs reacted with 116 kDa protein (NP) and 2 with Ebola virus VP35. Antigenic cross-reactivity between Ebola and Marburg viruses was examined in ELISA and immunoblotting with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. In ELISA, polyclonal antibodies of immune sera to Ebola or Marburg viruses reacted with heterologous filoviruses, and two anti-NP Ebola antibodies (Mabs 7E1 and 6G8) cross-reacted with both viruses. Target proteins for cross-reactivity, Ebola NP (116 kDa) and Marburg NP (96 kDa), and VP35 of both filoviruses were detected by immunoblotting with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies (6G8) to Ebola virus.

Abstract
Antigenic structure of Marburg virus (MBG) VP35 was compared with that of the recombinant VP35 (f35) expressed in a prokaryotic system. For this purpose, a gene encoding the full-length VP35 was cloned in vector pQE31(QIAGEN) and expressed at about 70 mg/liter culture fluid in Escherichia coli JM103 as a recombinant fusion protein f35. BALB/c mice were immunized with soluble f35 or purified inactivated virions of MBG. Antibodies cross-reacting with VP35 and f35 antigens were detected by ELISA and Western Blot analysis in immune sera. Serum from a convalescent after Marburg disease and polyclonal antibodies from animals immunized with MBG recognized f35 and the MBG VP35. VP35 and its recombinant analog induced the production of specific antiviral antibodies in mice, which cross-reacted with the studied antigens. Competitive EIA showed that VP35 and f35 cross-inhibit the antigenic reactivity with polyclonal antibodies of immune sera. Antigenic structure of f35 protein corresponded to antigenic structure of MBG VP35 protein.

Abstract
Hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies (MAb) to Marburg virus proteins are prepared. Positive hybridomas were selected by solid-phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA) by specificity of their immunoglobulin reaction with Marburg virus antigen. Virus proteins reacting with MAbs were identified by immunoblotting. Out of 20 examined hybridoma antibodies, 5 reacted with protein VP35, 5 with VP40, 3 with NP, 1 with protein complex VP35-VP40, MAb 7H10 detected 2 proteins (VP40 and NP), and 5 MAbs did not bind virus proteins in this assay. Marburg virus antigen adsorbed on the surface of plates were detected by indirect EIA with biotin-treated MAbs (PEIA-MAb) and indirect EIA (IEIA-MAb). The sensitivity of both methods differed with different hybridoma antibodies and was the maximum with MAb 5F1 specific to Marburg virus nucleoprotein: 5-10 and 1-2 ng/ml for the direct and indirect methods, respectively. Purified MAbs 7C4, 7D8, and 5F1 were used as antigen captures in EIA for detecting immunoglobulins to Marburg virus in a serum from convalescent after Marburg fever. The results recommend the above MAbs for use in test systems for the diagnosis of the disease and detecting virus antigen.

Abstract
Antigen and antibody detection in EIA is a good tool in diagnosing HAV infections, especially in their differentiation from other hepatitides. Commercial kits containing polyclonal antibodies and murine MAbs to identify HAV are now available. Rat MAbs have not been assayed so far. Peroxidase-labelled rat MAbs and purified rat MAbs as antigen capture were used to modify commercial "VectoHep A-IgM" and "VectorHep A-Ag" kits. The results obtained with modified "VectoHep A-IgM" and "VectorHep A-Ag" kits with labelled rat MAbs suggest that labelled rat MAbs can increase the sensitivity and specificity of EIA. MAbs used as antigen capture and labelled antibodies permit at least an 8-fold increase in sensitivity as compared to polyclonal antibodies. The modified "VectorHep A-Ag" kit with labelled rat MAbs provided 100% sensitivity and specificity in EIA. The modified "VectorHep A-Ag" kit also allowed the authors to determine viral antigens in the cell lysate, homogenates of the infected monkey liver, stools from patients, and sewage water samples. The rat MAbs modified kits can be recommended for using in epidemiological and clinical studies of HAV infections.

Abstract
The polypeptide composition of somatic, excretory-secretory, and egg antigens of the liver trematode Opisthorchis felineus has been investigated by SDS electrophoresis. All three main antigens consist of a large number of different polypeptides and have original electrophoretic profiles. The first original classification of the main polypeptides of somatic, excretory-secretory, and egg antigens of O. felineus is proposed. Immunoblotting showed that serum antibodies fail to recognize all polypeptides. The human serum antibodies mainly interacted with protein p105 alone. The restricted human immune response can be critical to further development of immunoassay for opisthorchiasis. Eighteen monoclonal antibodies against O. felineus p105 were obtained and their main properties were examined. Furthermore, this will improve immunoassay and investigation of the mechanisms responsible for immune response to O. felineus antigens.

Abstract
Phage display peptide library f88-4/15 (G. P. Smith, USA) was used for mapping the hemagglutination activity domain of glycoprotein E2 of alphaviruses. Using affinity selection and ELISA, we selected the clones binding monoclonal antibody 4H5 to Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis virus and inhibiting alphavirus hemagglutinating activity. Analysis of the similarity between the peptides amino acid sequences with the alphavirus glycoprotein E2 sequences revealed a structural motive of 4 amino acid residues (HTSR) which was identified in the 85-88 region. Bacteriophages F36 and F19 contained motives corresponding to 102-SXXM-105 and 109-AXXP-112 regions in alphavirus proteins E2. These data permit us to propose that the detected regions are fragments of a group-specific alphavirus hemagglutination domain.

Abstract
Electrophoretic analysis showed that the somatic, excretory and secretory, and egg antigens of O. felineus have a complex protein composition. They were found to have 20, 11, and 25 proteins, respectively. On titration of the antigens, by using a constant dose of immune sera, the excretory and secretory antigen was detected in concentrations 50-100 less than the somatic and egg antigens. Rabbit immune sera effectively interacted with the proteins 116, 105, 80, 70, 60, 50, 44, 40 kD as part of the excretory and secretory antigen, with the proteins 105, 80, 70, 60, 50, 44, 40 and 32 kD as part of the somatic antigen, with the proteins p70, p60, p50, p28, p25 and p24 kD as part of the egg one. The limited human immune responses revealed by the author on O. felineus invasion, which was associated with the excretory and secretory and somatic p105 and three egg antigen proteins, such as p74, p70, p64 clearly indicate further ways of improving the immune diagnosis of opisthorchiasis.

Abstract
A panel of 9 mouse hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies (MAb-2) to determinants of rat MAb 4H5 (MAb-1) was prepared. MAb-1 blocked hemagglutination caused by different alphaviruses. The specificity of paratopes of MAb-2 was studied by competitive enzyme immunoassay and they were divided into 2 groups: 1) interacting with isotypic and/or allotypic determinants of molecules of MAb 4H5 (5 hybridomas) and 2) specific to idiotypic determinants of MAb 4H5 molecules (4 hybridomas). The antigenic structure of paratopes of 3 antiidiotypic MAb (1C2, 1F9, and 6C8) was specific to the idiotopes localized in the active MAb 4H5 center interacting with the hemagglutination domain of VEE virus glycoprotein E2. These antiidiotypic MAb can agglutinate goose red cells, this indicating that the antigenic structure of their paratopes mimicks the functional determinant of the hemagglutination domain of VEE virus glycoprotein E2.

Abstract
Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) with sixty types of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) was used to study cross-reactive epitopes on the attenuated and virulent strains of the Eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE) and Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) viruses. All three structural proteins of the EEE and VEE viruses were demonstrated to have both cross-reactive and specific antigenic determinants. The glycoprotein E1 of EEE and VEE viruses possesses three cross-reactive epitopes for binding to MAbs. The glycoprotein E2 has a cluster of epitopes for 20 cross-reacting MAbs produced to EEE and VEE viruses. Cross-reactive epitopes were localised within five different sites of glycoprotein E2 of VEE virus and within four sites of that of the EEE virus. There are no cross-neutralising MAbs to the VEE and EEE viruses. Only one type of the protective Mabs was able to cross-protect mice against lethal infection by the virulent strains of the VEE and EEE viruses. Eight MAbs blocked the hemagglutination activity (HA) of both viruses. Antigenic alterations of neutralising and protective sites were revealed for all attenuated strains of the VEE and EEE viruses. Comparative studies of the E2 proteins amino acid sequences show that the antigenic modifications observed with the attenuated strains of the VEE virus may be caused by multiple amino acid changes in positions 7, 62, 120, 192 and 209-213. The escape-variants of the VEE virus obtained with cross-reactive MAbs 7D1, 2D4 and 7A6 have mutations of the E2 protein at positions 59, 212-213 and 232, respectively. Amino acid sequences in these regions of the VEE and EEE viruses are not homologous. These observations indicate that cross-reactive MAbs are capable of recognising discontinuous epitopes on the E2 glycoprotein.

Abstract
Epitope specificity and protective activity of 5 types of monoclonal antibodies (MAB) to strain TM-14 of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus were studied. The competing VEE A4 and VEE B5 MAB were shown to recognize the conformation-dependent epitope of glycoprotein E2 third site and to possess an extremely high protective activity. VEE C6 MAB were active in all the studied biological tests (hemagglutination inhibition, neutralization tests, passive defence) and were directed to glycoprotein E2 site six. Competitive radioimmunoassay demonstrated that VEE A5 MAB also interacted with E2-6 site and by the sum of characteristics detected a new epitope of this site. VEE G1 MAB specific to glycoprotein E1 were characterized by protective, but not neutralizing activity, and competed with MAB to sites E2-2 and E2-6. This means that VEE G1 MAB detect a heretofore not described epitope E1 overlapping with two E2 sites.

Abstract
The hemagglutination (HA) domains of the Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) and the eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE) viruses providing the interaction of virions and red blood cells were studied with the use of a panel of 17 hemagglutination inhibition (HI) monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). A highly conserved domain (C domain) forming alphavirus-group-reactive MAbs was identified in the E2 protein of the VEE and EEE viruses. These MAbs inhibited HA of the western equine encephalomyelitis, Semliki Forest, Sindbis, Getah, Aura, Chikungunya and Pixuna viruses. The involvement of amino acid residues 59 and 232 in the formation of the C region was demonstrated by sequencing the gene encoding the E2 protein of three escape variants of the VEE virus.

Abstract
Nine peptides were synthesized for detailed mapping of VEE virus E2-2 and E2-6 sites responsible for the formation of protective antibodies that neutralize the virus and block hemagglutination. The sequence of the peptides over-lapped the regions of amino acid residues 30-75 and 202-250 of VEE virus E2 protein in which antigenic mutations caused by monoclonal antibodies to E2-2 and E2-6 sites had been mapped. None of the synthesized peptides reacted in the enzyme immunoassay with a panel of 17 Mabs to VEE virus E2 protein. However, eight peptides reacted with polyclonal antiviral serum and two of them elicited antiviral antibody production. The E2-2 site might be associated with amino acid residues 30-45, and the region of E2 residues 57-62 in which antigenic mutations are observed is not a linear type antigenic determinant, but participates in the formation of antigenic determinants of the conformational type. The mapping of residues 202-250 demonstrated that all the peptides in this region were well recognized by polyclonal antiviral serum. The residues 235-240 were shown to form a linear epitope which provided a crossover between VEE and EEE viruses and was not recognized by 19 types of monoclonal antibodies cross-reacting with VEE and EEE viruses.

Abstract
Thirty-three monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) interacting with the structural proteins of Eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE) virus were prepared. The mutual arrangement of the antigenic sites on the E1 and E2 glycoproteins was studied by competitive radioimmunoassay. At least four nonoverlapping sites were found on the E1. The E2 glycoprotein contained at least seven partially overlapping antigenic sites. Mabs to the sites E2-2 and E2-3 neutralized viral infectivity and blocked hemagglutination. Mabs to the site E2-1 blocked hemagglutination. Mabs to sites E2-2, 3, and 7 protected mice against lethal infection although the protective Mabs to sites E2-2b and E2-7 did not neutralize the virus. The antibodies to the other three sites of E2 and to all sites of E1 did not have any biological activity. The experimental results indicate the dominant role of E2 in antiviral immunity, over 98% of the observed protective effect being associated with the E2-2 site.

Abstract
The receptor region for virus-cell interaction in Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) and Eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE) viruses was studied using a panel of 17 monoclonal antibodies (MCA). They were able to block agglutination of goose erythrocytes. The dominant role of glycoprotein E2 in the formation of viral receptor for EEE and VEE viruses was demonstrated. Competitive radioimmunoassay identified three antigenic sites in this region. These sites were also responsible for virus neutralization. MCAs to these sites protected outbred mice against lethal infection. The presence of a highly conservative region in VEE (site E2-3) and EEE (site E2a) which produced cross-reacting antibodies blocking hemagglutination of Western equine encephalomyelitis, Semliki Forest, Sindbis, Getah, Aura, Chikungunya, and Pixuna viruses was established. A hypothesis is suggested concerning the existence of similar regions for the entire alphavirus genus, and the role of this region in virus-cell interaction.

Abstract
The collection of eight rat and mouse hybridomas secreting the high affinity monoclonal antibodies to glycoprotein E1 of the Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis has been obtained. The antigenic structure of E1 protein has been studied with the use of these antibodies for the strains Trinidad, TC-83 and 230 of the virus. Antigenic map of glycoprotein E1 based on competition radioimmunoanalysis is proposed. Five sites are mapped including eight epitopes binding monoclonal antibodies. Antibodies to sites E1-1, E1-3 and E1-5 are crossreactive in interaction with the virus of Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis, while antibodies to site E1-5 interact also with the virus of tick-borne encephalitis. Antibodies to site E1-1 possess the protective effect and lack the neutralizing effect in tissue cultures. Antibodies to all sites of E1 protein are devoid of ability to neutralize the Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus.

A collection of 21 rat hybridomas secreting high-affinity monoclonal antibodies to Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus was generated. Using a panel of 15 monoclonal antibodies to glycoprotein E2, the antigenic structure of this protein of VEE strains TC-83 and 230 was studied. A competitive radioimmunoassay suggested a new map of the antigenic structure of glycoprotein E2 in which 5 sites including 11 epitopes of monoclonal antibody binding were distinguished. Antibody to E2-2 site neutralized virus infectivity and blocked hemagglutination test and antibody to E2-3 site could only block hemagglutination. Antibodies to other E2 protein sites lacked any biological activity.

Abstract
Employment of radioimmunoassay led to the demonstration of serological crossing between tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus and Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis (VEE) virus. Using hybridoma technology, three hybridomas were produced secreting monoclonal antibodies (MAb) cross-reacting with these two viruses. With MAb, the epitope of binding of these antibodies was shown to be located on protein E of TBE virus and protein E1 of VEE virus. Despite the low percentage (14%) of homology of amino acid sequences of these proteins, 12 areas with homology from 24% to 63% were demonstrated. Considering conservative replacements, homology of these areas was 53%-75%. The assumed existence of some of these areas in alpha-helical conformation may explain the observed immunological crossing.
