Abstract:
Over the years, numerous vaccines have been developed against viral infections; however, a complete database that provides comprehensive information on viral vaccines has been lacking. In this review, along with our freely accessible database ViralVacDB, we provide details of the viral vaccines, their type, routes of administration and approving agencies. This repository systematically covers additional information such as disease name, adjuvant, manufacturer, clinical status, age and dosage against 422 viral vaccines, including 145 approved vaccines and 277 in clinical trials. We anticipate that this database will be highly beneficial to researchers and others working in pharmaceuticals and immuno-informatics.

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
