A fractionated illumination scheme in which a cumulative fluence of 100 J cm(-2) is delivered in two equal light fractions separated by a dark interval of 2 h has been shown to considerably increase the efficacy of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-photodynamic therapy (PDT). The efficacy of such a scheme is further increased if the fluence of the first light fraction is reduced to 5 J cm(-2). We have investigated the relationship between the PDT response and the kinetics of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence in the SKH1 HR hairless mouse for first fraction fluences below 5 J cm(-2) delivered 4 h after the application of ALA and 10 J cm(-2) delivered 2 h after the application of ALA. Illumination is performed using 514 nm at a fluence rate of 50 mW cm(-2). Reducing the fluence of the first fraction to 2.5 J cm(-2) does not result in significantly different visual skin damage. The PDT response, however, is significantly reduced if the fluence is lowered to 1 J cm(-2), but this illumination scheme (1 + 99 J cm(-2)) remains significantly more effective than a single illumination of 100 J cm(-2). A first light fraction of 10 J cm(-2) can be delivered 2 h earlier, 2 h after the application of ALA, without significant reduction in the PDT response compared with 5 + 95 J cm(-2) delivered 4 and 6 h after the application of ALA. The kinetics of PpIX fluorescence are consistent with those reported previously by us and do not explain the significant increase in PDT response with a two-fold illumination scheme. Histological sections of the illuminated volume showed a trend toward increasing extent and depth of necrosis for the two-fold illumination scheme in which the first light fraction is 5 J cm(-2), compared with a single illumination scheme.  相似文献

Interactions between visible or infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV, 254 nm) radiation have been studied in E. coli. Pre-illumination with non-coherent monochromatic 446, 466, 570 and 685 nm radiation, as well as with polychromatic red and IR radiation at room temperature, leads to increased cell survival after a subsequent irradiation with UV light. In the thermic range of the spectrum (red and IR), IR but not red light pre-treatment is able to increase cell survival to a subsequent lethal heat (51 degrees C) challenge, suggesting that increased UV survival may be due to IR-induced heat-shock response. On the other hand, visible-light-induced resistance may be due to a different mechanism, possibly involved with unknown bacterial light receptors.  相似文献

Although the sequence and time interval effects of combined photodynamic therapy (PDT) and hyperthermia tumor treatments have been studied using survival curves, tumor regrowth, and cloning assays, the metabolic response to combined treatment measured by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has not yet been clarified. In this study, mammary carcinoma in the flank of C3H mice was subjected to PDT (12.5 mg/kg Photofrin II, 632 +/- 1 nm at 200 J/cm2) and water bath hyperthermia (43.5 degrees C, 30 min) with no delay or 4 h delay between treatments. In vivo 31P-NMR spectroscopy was employed to measure energy metabolism and pH of the tumors before and serially after treatment for up to 1 week. The data revealed significant differences in the time course of high energy phosphate levels between treatment combinations, which may reflect the biological effectiveness of the combined treatments. Our observations indicate that 31P-NMR spectroscopy can be used to evaluate the metabolic response of tumors to treatment with combined PDT and hyperthermia.  相似文献

The adsorption of the organic anionic dye Congo red (CR) by montmorillonite saturated with Na+, Cs+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Al3+ and Fe3+ was investigated by XRD of unwashed and washed samples after equilibration at 40% humidity and after heating at 360 and at 420°C. The clay was treated with different amounts of CR, most of which was adsorbed. Clay samples, untreated with CR, after heating showed collapsed interlayer space. Unwashed and washed samples, which contained CR, before heating were characterized by three peaks or shoulders, labeled A (at 0.96-0.99 nm, collapsed interlayers), B (at 1.24-1.36 nm) and C (at 2.10-2.50 nm). Peak B represents adsorbed monolayers of water and dye anions inside the interlayer spaces. Peak C represents interlayer spaces with different orientations of the adsorbed water and organic matter. Diffractograms of samples with small amounts of dye were similar to those without dye showing peak B whereas diffractograms of most samples with high amounts of dye showed an additional peak C. Heated unwashed and washed samples were also characterized by three peaks or shoulders, labeled A' (at 0.96 nm), B' (at 1.10-1.33 nm) and C' (at 1.61-2.10 nm), representing collapsed interlayers, and interlayers with charcoal composed of monolayers or multilayers of carbon. When the samples were heated from 360 to 420°C some of the charcoal monolayers underwent rearrangement to multilayers. In the case of Cu the charcoal decomposed and oxidized. The present results show that most of the adsorbed dye was located inside the interlayer space.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence was measured at different depths in a subcutaneous amelanotic melanoma model (LOX) in mice. PpIX was induced by topical application of 5‐aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and two of its derivatives, the methylester (MAL) and hexylester (HAL) onto the normal skin covering the tumor. The PpIX fluorescence intensity on the surface of the tumors was the highest for HAL, followed by ALA and MAL. Using equimolar concentrations (0.5 mmol g?1), HAL induced nearly twice as much fluorescence as ALA did. The depth profile of PpIX fluorescence was measured at different layers of the tumor, which was carefully sliced and controlled in situ ex vivo. The PpIX fluorescence was mainly localized within the upper 2 mm of the tissue for ALA and within 1 mm for MAL and HAL. There were no significant differences in the shape of the fluorescence excitation spectra, but the long wavelength excitation peak (633 nm) was so weak that these results are unreliable for depth estimation. When considering the low fluorescence intensity (around 5% of the intensity at the tumor surface), the actual penetration depth of HAL was comparable to that of ALA. The fluorescence after topical application of ALA and HAL was significantly above the background level down to a depth of around 6 mm, and there were traces of PpIX fluorescence even at the tumor base (10 mm). The fluorescence after topical application of MAL was detectable down to 1 mm. In the depth of 2–6 mm, the fluorescence was slightly higher for HAL than for ALA. Using the estimated diffusion coefficients for topically applied ALA (0.16 ± 0.03 mm2 h?1), MAL (0.045 ± 0.005 mm2 h?1) and HAL (0.037 ± 0.003 mm2 h?1), the behavior of the drugs after different application times could be estimated in this tumor model.  相似文献

Synthesis of delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) derivatives is a promising way to improve the therapeutic properties of ALA, particularly cell uptake or homogeneity of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) synthesis. The fluorescence emission kinetics and phototoxic properties of ALA-n-pentyl ester (E1) and R,S-ALA-2-(hydroxymethyl) tetrahydrofuranyl ester (E2) were compared with those of ALA and assessed on C6 glioma cells. ALA (100 micrograms/mL), E1 and E2 (10 micrograms/mL) induced similar PpIX-fluorescence kinetics (maximum between 5 and 7 h incubation), fluorescence being limited to the cytoplasm. The 50% lethal dose occurred after 6 h with 45, 4 and 8 micrograms/mL of ALA, E1 and E2, respectively. ALA, E1 and E2 induced no dark toxicity when drugs were removed after 5 min of incubation. However, light (25 J/cm2) applied 6 h after 5 min incubation with 168 micrograms/mL of each compound induced 85% survival with ALA, 27% with E1 and 41% with E2. Increasing the incubation time with ALA, E1 and E2 before washing increased the phototoxicity, but E1 and E2 remained more efficient than ALA, regardless of incubation time. ALA-esters were more efficient than ALA in inducing phototoxicity after short incubation times, probably through an increase of the amount of PpIX synthesized by C6 cells.  相似文献

Wavelength effects in photodynamic therapy (PDT) with hypericin (HY) were examined in a C26 colon carcinoma model both in vitro and in vivo. Irradiation of HY-sensitized cells in vitro with either 550 or 590 nm caused the loss of cell viability in a drug- and light-dose-dependent manner. The calculated ratio of HY-based PDT (HY-PDT) efficiencies at these two wavelengths was found to correlate with the numerical ratio of absorbed photons at each wavelength. In vivo irradiation of C26-derived tumors, 6 h after intraperitoneal administration of HY (5 mg/kg), caused extensive vascular damage and tumor necrosis. The depth of tumor necrosis (d) was more pronounced at 590 than at 550 nm and increased when the light dose was raised from 60 to 120 J/cm2. The maximal depths of tumor necrosis (at 120 J/cm2) were 7.5+/-1.5 mm at 550 nm and 9.9+/-0.8 mm at 590 nm. Both values are rather high in view of the limited penetration of green-yellow light into the tissue. Moreover, the depth ratio, d590/d550 = 1.3 (P < 0.001), is smaller than expected considering the 2.2-fold lower HY absorbance and the 1.7-fold lower tissue penetration of radiation at 550 than at 590 nm. This finding indicates that in vivo the depth at which HY-PDT elicits tumor necrosis is not only determined by photophysical considerations (light penetration, number of absorbed photons) but is also influenced significantly by other mechanisms such as vascular effects. Therefore, despite the relatively short-wavelength peaks of absorption, our observations suggest that HY is an effective photodynamic agent that can be useful in the treatment of tumors with depths in the range of 1 cm.  相似文献

Two synthetic peptides were completely cleaved by the cis-[Pt(en)(H2O)2]2+ (en is ethylenediamine) complex at pH 2.5 under thermal heating at 60 degrees C in a selective way: only the amide bonds involving the carboxylic group of the methionine residue, i.e., the Met-Z bonds (where the residue Z has a noncoordinating side chain), were hydrolyzed. Under irradiation at 300 nm, the rate constants for these cleavage reactions were approximately doubled, but side reactions occurred. Under microwave irradiation, the rate constants were increased 2-3 times at 60 degrees C and ca. 7 times at 100 degrees C, and no side reactions were detected. Microwave irradiation similarly accelerated the complete and selective cleavage of Met-Z bonds in cytochrome c at 60 degrees C in comparison with this cleavage under thermal heating, again without detected side reactions. The microwave-assisted cleavage of peptides and proteins by the platinum(II) reagent holds promise in proteomics and other biotechnological applications.  相似文献

The search for better photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy of malignancies has led to the investigation of a new water-soluble, positively charged, and chemical stable tetrahydroporphyrin tetratosylat (THPTS) with a strong absorption at 760.5 nm, belonging to the bacteriochlorophyll family. THPTS undergoes a rapid uptake by human choroidal melanoma (CM) cells with a weak dark toxicity after a 24-h incubation (LD10 = 150 microM, LD50 = 6.0 mM). In response to laser light at 760+/-3 nm and doses of 10, 15 and 30 J/cm2, around 71%, 76%, and 92% of the CM cells were killed, respectively. Studies of pharmacokinetics and biodistribution in vivo (living mice) and ex vivo (excised organs) were made in a Balb/c mice bearing subcutaneously inoculated C26 colon carcinoma using fiber-optic spectrofluorimetry (FOS). Tumours were irradiated 3 h after intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 5.0 mg/kg THPTS with an incoherent light source at 750+/-20 nm and an intensity of 100 mW/cm2 and fluences of 60, 90 and 120 J/cm2. THPTS demonstrated preferential accumulation in C26 colon carcinoma in comparison with most normal tissues except kidneys. For the tissues of liver, colon, muscle, and spleen the tumour/normal tissue ratio (TNTR) ranged from 8.0 to 50. After irradiation with 120 J/cm2 the depth of tumour necrosis reached 15 mm. Histological examination of the tumour samples 24 h after THPTS-PDT, revealed severe stasis in the blood vessels and coagulative necrosis. These results suggest that THPTS-PDT may be of particular importance in the treatment of accessible malignancies.  相似文献

Endogenous protoporphyurin IX (PpIX) synthesis after δ-aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) administration occurs in cancer cells in vivo; PpIX, which has a short half-life, may thus constitute a good alternative to haematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) (or Photofrin). This study assesses the ability of the human hepatocarcinoma cell line HepG2 to synthesize PpIX in vitro from exogenous ALA, and compares ALA-induced toxicity and phototoxicity with the photodynamic therapy (PDT) effects of HPD on this cell line.

ALA induced a dose-dependent dark toxicity, with 79% and 66% cell survival for 50 and 100 μg ml−1 ALA respectively after 3 h incubation; the same treatment, followed by laser irradiation (λ = 632 nm, 25 J cm−2), induced a dose-dependent phototoxicity, with 54% and 19% cell survival 24 h after PDT. Whatever the incubation time with ALA, a 3 h delay before light exposure was found to be optimal to reach a maximum phototoxicity.

HPD induced a slight dose-dependent toxicity in HepG2 cells and a dose- and time-dependent phototoxicity ten times greater than that of ALA-PpIX PDT. After 3 h incubation of 2.5 and 5 μg ml−1 HPD, followed by laser irradiation (λ = 632 nm, 25 J cm−2), cell survival was 59% and 24% respectively at 24 h.

Photoproducts induced by light irradiation of porphyrins absorb light in the red spectral region at longer wavelengths than the original porphyrins. The possible enhancement of PDT effects after HepG2 cell incubation with ALA or HPD was investigated by irradiating cells successively with red light (λ = 632 nm) and light (λ = 650 nm). The total fluence was kept constant at 25 J cm−2. For both HPD and ALA-PpIX PDT, phototoxicity was lower when cells were irradiated for increased periods with λ = 650 nm light than with λ = 632 nm light alone. This suggests that any photoproducts involved either have a short life or are poorly photoreactive.

Not all cell lines can synthesize PpIX after ALA incubation. HepG2 cells, which can synthesize enzymes and precursors of endogenous porphyrin synthesis, represent a good in vitro model for experiments using ALA-PpIX PDT. In addition, ALA-PpIX PDT may represent a new, specific treatment for hepatocarcinomas.  相似文献

This report explores some properties of 80–200 nm nanoparticles containing 5‐aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and fullerene (C60) for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Compared with ALA, the nanoparticles yielded more protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) formation in cells and tissues and to a significant improvement in antitumor efficacy in tumor‐bearing mice. Maximum levels of PpIX were obtained 4 h after administration and selective PpIX formation in tumor was observed. These nanoparticles appear to be a useful vehicle for drug delivery purposes. In this study, a procedure for preparing fullerene nanoparticles containing ALA was developed. The product alone exhibited no detectable toxicity in the dark and was superior to ALA alone in promoting PpIX biosynthesis and PDT efficacy both in culture and in a murine tumor model. These results suggest that this procedure could be the basis for an improved PDT protocol for cancer control.  相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) induces accumulation of the photosensitive compound protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) in certain tissues. PplX can be used as photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy (PDT). More selective or higher PpIX accumulation in the area to be treated could optimize the results of ALA-PDT. Porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) is rate-limiting in PpIX formation whereas ferrochelatase converts PpIX into haem by chelation of ferrous iron into PpIX. This results in a moment of close interaction (ferrochelatase binding to PpIX) during which ferrochelatase could selectively be destroyed resulting in an increased PpIX concentration. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether illumination before PDT can selectively destroy ferrochelatase. and whether this results in higher PpIX accumulation and thereby increases the PDT effect. Furthermore, the effect of a second ALA dose was tested. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIALS AND METHODS: Oesophageal tissue of 60 rats were allocated to 2 groups of 30 animals each. In one group, enzyme and PpIX measurements were performed after ALA administration (200 mg/kg orally, n=20), or a second dose of 200 mg/kg ALA at 4 h (n=10), half of each group with and without illumination at 1 h with 12.5 J/cm diffuser length. In the second group, PDT was performed. Ten animals were illuminated at 3 h after ALA administration with 20 (n=5) or 32.5 J/cm (n=5), 10 animals were illuminated at 1 h (12.5 J/cm) and received intra-oesophageal PDT treatment (20 J/cm) at 3 h (n=5) or 4 h (n=5) after ALA. Additionally, 10 animals received a second dose of 200 mg/kg ALA at 4 h and were illuminated (20 J/cm) at 7 h after the first dose of ALA with (n=5) or without (n=5) illumination at 4 h (12.5 J/cm). RESULTS: Illumination with 12.5 J/cm at 1 h after ALA administration caused inhibition of the activity of ferrochelatase at 3 and 4 h after ALA (P=0.02 and P<0.001, respectively), but not at 7 h (P=0.3). In animals sacrificed at 4 h the ratio PBGD:ferrochelatase was higher in animals illuminated at 1 h compared to non-illuminated animals (P<0.001). PpIX concentration was highest (42.7 +/- 3.2 pmol/mg protein) at 3 h after ALA administration and did not increase by illumination at 1 h. Administration of a second dose of ALA did not result in higher PpIX accumulation. After PDT, no difference in epithelial or muscular damage was found between the various groups. CONCLUSION: Illumination at 1 h after ALA administration can cause selective destruction of ferrochelatase, resulting in a higher ratio of PBGD:ferrochelatase. This does not result in accumulation of more porphyrins, even when a second dose of ALA is given. Therefore, under the conditions used in this study fractionated illumination does not enhance ALA-PDT-induced epithelial ablation of the rat oesophagus.  相似文献
