The invention generally relates to soluble beta-glucan compositions and method of using such compositions. In one aspect, an adjuvant for a pharmaceutical composition is described which includes a soluble beta-glucan and a TLR agonist, each in an amount that, in combination with the other, is effective to increase a subject's immune response to an antigen. In another aspect, compositions that generally include an antigen component, a soluble beta-glucan component, and a TLR agonist component and a method that generally includes administering to a subject a composition that comprises a soluble beta-glucan and a TLR agonist, each in an amount that, in combination with the other, is effective to increase a subject's immune response to an antigen, are described.

A method of selectively depleting pathogenic T lymphocytes from a blood cell composition is carried out by (a) combining the cell composition ex vivo with an active compound in an effective amount, and then (b) irradiating the cells with light ex vivo for a time and at an intensity sufficient to selectively kill pathogenic T lymphocytes in said cell composition. Chalcogenorhodamine photosensitizers useful as such active compounds are also described.
