abstract：:Alum has been the only adjuvant licensed for human vaccines for decades and is still widely used, but its mechanism of action remains obscure. Recently, the NLRP3 inflammasome has been linked to the immunostimulatory properties of alum and other particulate adjuvants, although it is disputed to what degree NLRP3 is ge...
