Advances on the early cellular events occurring upon exposure of human macrophages to aluminum oxyhydroxide adjuvant

Abstract: Aluminum compounds are the most widely used adjuvants in veterinary and human vaccines. Despite almost a century of use and substantial advances made in recent decades about their fate and biological effects, the exact mechanism of their action has been continuously debated, from the initial “depot-theory” to the direct immune system stimulation, and remains elusive. Here we investigated the early in vitro response of primary human PBMCs obtained from healthy individuals to aluminum oxyhydroxide (the most comm… Show more

“…These effects were attenuated by chlorogenic acid [249]. Al 3+ -induced oxidative stress showed toxic effects that manifested as cell viability collapse, ∆Ψ mito decline, an increase in ROS production, and a decrease in oxygen consumption and mitochondria enzyme activity in experiments with rat nerve cells and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells [252,253].…”

“…It is found in various bodily secretions and tissues, including blood, tears, and saliva [21]. Adjuvants can activate the nonspeci c immune cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells, leading to the production of various immune mediators and cytokines [22,23]. In this study, lysozyme activity increased several folds in the AE adjuvanted sh.…”

“…The enriched GO terms and Reactome pathways in the ME1 module were mainly related to mitochondria and energy metabolism. A tendency of aluminum hydroxide to increase basal mitochondrial metabolism, seemingly linked to energetic requests to support phagocytosis and cytokine production, has been observed in human PBMCs exposed to the adjuvant and whole vaccines ( 43 ). Moreover, the ME3 module was mainly enriched in terms related to ER stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling cascade.…”
