Vaccines of the Future: The Role of Inflammation and Adjuvanticity

Comparison of the Adjuvanticity of Aluminum Salts and Their Combination in Hepatitis B Recombinant Protein Vaccine Assessed in Mice

Background: Several adjuvants have been evaluated for vaccine formulations but alu-minum salts will continue to be used for many years due to their safety, low cost and adjuvanticity with different antigens. Two commonly used aluminum adjuvants, alumi-num hydroxide and aluminum phosphate have different adjuvanticity properties. Com-mercial recombinant protein hepatitis B vaccines containing alu...

A micro-sterile inflammation array as an adjuvant for influenza vaccines

There is an urgent need of adjuvants for cutaneous vaccination. Here, we report that micro-sterile inflammation induced at inoculation sites can augment immune responses to influenza vaccines in animal models. The inoculation site is briefly illuminated with a handheld, non-ablative fractional laser before the vaccine is intradermally administered, which creates an array of self-healing microth...

Control of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza by Evidence-Based Vaccinology: Past Progress, Future Prospect

Background and Objectives: Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses are particularly important due to huge economic consequences and public health concerns. During recent years, because of the severity of epidemics and failure in the control and eradication of HPAI, vaccination has been introduced into the National Prevention and Control Program of some countries, including Iran. This a...

بررسی ایمنی‌زایی نانوذرات کیتوسان حاوی پروتئین نوترکیب ناحیه اتصال‌دهنده نوروتوکسین بوتولینوم تیپ E در موش

Abstract Background and purpose: Clostridium botulinum neurotoxins are the most potent toxins that cause the life-threatening botulism syndrome in humans and animals. Researches have shown that the binding domain of the botulinum neurotoxin type E has a high immunogenicity effect that could be used as an efficient recombinant vaccine. The recombinant vaccines are not potent enough to stimulate...

Adjuvanticity of pGPL-Mc and LRS in the Immune Responses of Monkeys to Oral Immunization with Diphteria and Tetanus Toxoids
