Background: Aluminum-based adjuvants (ABAs) enhance the immune response following vaccine injection. Their mechanisms of action are not fully understood, and their bio-persistency have been described associated with long-term adverse effects.
Methods: We evaluated and compared the cellular effects of the two main ABAs and whole vaccines on ATP production, ROS generation and cytokines production (IL-6 and IL-10), using THP-1 cells.
Results: ABAs altered the cell energy metabolism by increasing ROS production after 24 h and reducing ATP production after 48 h. In addition, both ABAs and whole vaccines induced different kinetics of IL-6 production, whereas only ABAs induced IL-10 secretion.
Conclusion: This study showed clearly, for a first time, a difference in cellular response to the ABAs and whole vaccines which should be taken into consideration in future studies focusing on the effect of ABA in vaccines. Future studies on ABAs should also pay attention to mitochondrial function alterations following exposure to ABA-containing vaccines.

Vaccine antigens are partly adsorbed onto aluminium-based adjuvant particles, forming an unstable corona. At the inoculation site, the corona will be restructured, and the adsorbed antigens will be released through replacement with biomolecules from the interstitial fluid of the recipient. Aluminium-based adjuvants (ABAs) carrying a corona of serum proteins as a model of particles with a pre-formed antigen corona were shown to adsorb several categories of cytokines and growth factors, as assessed from a protein array covering 18 different analytes.

Objective: Malaysia's first case of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) was reported in January 2020, with the first case in the state of Negeri Sembilan diagnosed on 17 February 2020. The National COVID-19 Immunization Programme commenced in early March 2021 in Negeri Sembilan. This study describes the COVID-19 cases and vaccination coverage in Seremban District, Negeri Sembilan, during 2021.

Coronaviruses (CoV) are one of the largest families of viruses that infect human beings causing mild common cold or severe diseases like Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV), and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). A new strain emerged known as novel coronavirus (nCoV) causing fatal respiratory failure disease. This virus was characterized by rapid spread from asymptomatic and symptomatic patients to healthy people.

Background: Vaccines are an essential part of public health interventions to mitigate the devastating health and non-health impacts of COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the fact that Sudan launched the COVID-19 vaccination program in March 2021, only 10% of the population received their two primary doses of vaccines by the end of May 2022. This delayed uptake of vaccines obviously warrants investigation.
