title: [The route of a bacterium Holospora in the cell of Paramecium (Ciliophora, Protista) from phagosome to the nucleus].
abstract: Problems encountered at the initial stages of stable symbiotic system formation are discussed in the review. The most studied models for interaction between pathogenic bacteria and metazoan cells are compared with a similar system including Paramecium (a ciliatte)--Holospora (a bacterium). Literary and our own data on the infection of P. caudatum with specific endocytobionts inhabiting the nuclear apparatus (H. obtusa in the macronucleus), and H. undulata (in the micronucleus) are analysed with respect to the modern understanding of the intracellular vesicle trafficking.
