METHODS Photosensitization of BPD-MA was activated with a red light laser (632.8 nm) delivered at 10 mw/cm^2 to give a total dose of 2.4 J/cm^2. Cellular proliferative activity was measured using the 3-(4,5.- dimethylethiazil-2-yl)-2,5-Diph3-eyl tetrazolium bromide (MFi-) assay and 3H-thymidine incorporation. Cell apoptosis was determined with flow cytometry analysis and the terminal deoxyuridine nicked-labeling (TUNEL) assay. RESULTS At 24 h post photodynamic treatment, photodynamic therapy significantly decreased cellular proliferative activity. The rate of apoptosis in BIU-87 cells 8 h after photodynamic treatment significantly increased up to 26.11± 2.59% as analyzed with flow cytometry. In situ labeling of DNA cleavage products with the terminal deoxyuridine nicked-labeling (TUNEL) assay reinforced these observations, BPD-MA-mediated photosensitization increased the number of TUNEL-positive cells compared to the controls. However, laser irradiation alone, BPD-MA alone and sham radiation did not affect cellular proliferative activity or apoptosis of the human bladder cancer BIU-87 cells. CONCLUSION Photodynamic therapy with BPD-MA significantly decreases cellular proliferative activity and enhances apoptosis. Therapy using this method might be a promising approach to treat patients with bladder cancer.展开更多

In this study, ultrasonically induced antitumor effects of benzoporphyrin derivative monoacid ring A (BPD-MA) on KLN205 cells were investigated. KLN205 cells were irradiated at an ultrasonic frequency of 3 MHz with 10 μg/ml BPD-MA. The ultrasonically induced cell damage significantly increased as an ultrasonic intensity and ultrasound exposure time increased. Confocal microscopic examination revealed that the irradiated cells were induced chromatin condensation and phosphatidylserine exposure. The synergistic effect of the ultrasound exposure and BPD-MA on the tumor cell adhesion rate was significant.展开更多

METHODS Photosensitization of BPD-MA was activated with a red light Laser (632.8nm) delivered at 10 mW/cm^2 to give a total dose of 2.4 J/cm^2. Cellular apoptosis was measured with flow cytometry analysis and an insitu terminal deoxyuridine nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay. Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential (△φm) were monitored by a flow cy-tometric method with Rhodamine 123 staining and the expression of bcl- 2 in BIU-87 cells was detected with immunocytochemical staining. RESULTS At 8 h following photodynamic treatment, the degree of apoptosis was significantly increased when analyzed with flow cytometry and TUNEL assay. Treatment of the BIU-87 cells by PDT with BPD-MA resulted in the collapse of the △φm and a decrease of bcl-2 expression. CONCLUSION BPD-MA-mediated PDT can effectively induce apoptosis in BIU-87 cells. The mechanism probably is through a mitochondrial-initiated pathway.展开更多
