Investigating the influence of aluminium adjuvant on antigen presentation in vitro and T cell responses in vivo
Aluminium adjuvants (Alum) are the only widely approved adjuvants used in human vaccines, although their mechanism of action remains controversial. It is generally accepted that adjuvants mediate their effects on the adaptive immune system cells via innate antigen presenting cells (APCs), in particu...
