Objective:To investigate the effects of β-glucan combined with agonistic anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody (5C11) on the immune functions of dendritic cells (DCs) and the possible molecular mechanism.Methods:Mononuclear cells were separated from fresh concentrated white cells (granulocytes) of healthy subjects using Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, and induced by GM-CSF and IL-4 to differentiate into immature DCs. Following various stimulation (5C11 alone, β-glucan alone, 5C11 combined with β-glucan), flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of CD40, CD80, CD83, CD86 and MHC-Ⅱ molecule HLA-DR on the surface of DCs. ELISA was used to detect the secretion of cytokines including IL-12, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10. Western blot was used to detect the phosphorylation of proteins related to MAPK signaling pathway.Results:Flow cytometry suggested that β-glucan significantly induced the expression of co-stimulatory molecule CD40 on the surface of DCs ( P<0.05). After the DCs were co-stimulated with β-glucan and 5C11, CD80, CD83 and CD86 expression were further significantly increased, and a strong synergistic effect on CD83 expression, a key marker of DC maturation, was observed ( P<0.01). ELISA showed that β-glucan combined with 5C11 could significantly promote the secretion of cytokines such as IL-12, IL-6 and TNF-α by DCs, and have a synergistic effect on the secretion of IL-12, a critical cytokine in regulating DC functions ( P<0.01). Western blot indicated that the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and p44/42 MAPK in DCs was increased significantly after combined treatment, and the phosphorylation started earlier and lasted longer compared to that in DCs stimulated with 5C11 or β-glucan alone ( P<0.01). Conclusions:This study suggested that β-glucan combined with 5C11 had a synergistic effect on promoting the maturation and improving the immune functions of DCs, providing a new strategy for the preparation of anti-tumor DC vaccines.

Background Non-occupational carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a public health problem that seriously affect people’s health and lives. Objective To describe the prevalence of non-occupational CO poisoning during 2007—2018 in Shanghai, analyze its epidemiological characteristics and potential influencing factors, and explore effective prevention and control measures. Methods Daily reported non-occupational CO poisoning cases and meteorological factors from 2007 to 2018 were collected in Shanghai, epidemiological characteristics were analyzed by descriptive epidemiology methods, and a distributed lag nonlinear model was used to assess the association between temperature and non-occupational CO poisoning. Results A total of 2264 non-occupational CO poisoning events and 3866 cases from 2007 to 2018 were reported in Shanghai, including 59 death cases. More than half of the poisoning cases were female (56.3%), and young adults accounted for more cases than any other age group (54.8%). The poisoning events mainly occurred in winter (from December to next February); however, cases reported in summer increased in recent years. The peak period of the events was from 20:00 to 24:00. Households (85.2%) and restaurants (8.0%) were the common places of non-occupational CO poisoning events, and the main cause was improper use of gas water heater (36.9%). A nonlinear curve was found between daily average temperature of current day and the occurrence of non-occupational CO poisoning. Temperature was negatively associated with the risk of non-occupational CO poisoning when the temperature was lower than 9.6 ℃, while a positive association was found during 9.7-26.0 ℃. Conclusion Winter is a high season for non-occupational CO poisoning in Shanghai, rising cases reported in summer is also worthy of attention. Supervision should be strengthened to ban sales of unqualified gas water heaters, and health education on CO poisoning prevention and control should be conducted through multiple channels, in order to reduce the incidence of CO poisoning.
