Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown that different doses of ionizing radiation may have some impact on maturation and immune function of dendritic cells.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of 18F-FDG with different concentrations on maturation and immune function of dendritic cells from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro.
METHODS: Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells-derived mature dendritic cells were divided into five groups: PBS, 92.5×104, 185×104, 370×104, 740×104 Bq/mL 18F-FDG were separately added into each group. Dendritic cells were collected 24 hours later. Apoptosis rate, phenotypic expression (CD1α, CD80, CD83, CD86, HLA-DR), ability of mixed lymphocyte reaction and expression of macrophage inflammatory protein 1α and monocyte chemotactic factor-1 in cell culture supernatant were detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Apoptosis rate, phenotypic expression of CD86, ability of mixed lymphocyte reaction and expression of monocyte chemotactic factor-1 were down-regulated after culture in 740×104 Bq/mL 18F-FDG. However, 18F-FDG at other concentrations had no influence on maturation and immune function of dendritic cells. This study demonstrates that low-concentration 18F-FDG has little influence on apoptosis, maturation, antigen presentation, and migratory capacity of dendritic cells, and it may be selected at an appropriate concentration as a label for dendritic cells in vitro.
