title: [Progress in developing viral polynucleotide (DNA) vaccines].
abstract: Reviews published reports on the progress in development of DNA vaccines protecting from viral diseases. Emphasizes the advantages of the preparation injection into the epidermis and the possibility of stimulating the immunogenicity of DNA vaccines with adjuvants and cytokines. Discusses the results of studies on the immunogenicity of DNA vaccines from human, simian, and feline immunodeficiency viruses, hepatitis B and C viruses, herpes simplex virus, cytomegalovirus, influenza and measles viruses, rotavirus, rabies virus, foot-and-mouth disease virus, etc., and the safety of DNA vaccines.
