Epigenetic remodeling combined with photodynamic therapy elicits anticancer immune responses
Photodynamic therapy has been shown to induce strong immunity against tumor cells expressing exogenous tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), including P1A antigen. Cancer cells can evade the immune system by epigenetic silencing of TAAs, while DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, such as 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-dC) can restore the expression of silenced or downregulated TAA. Thus, epigenetic rem...
متن کاملCombined Treatments with Photodynamic Therapy for Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer
Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common form of cancer in the Caucasian population. Among NMSC types, basal cell carcinoma (BCC) has the highest incidence and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is less common although it can metastasize, accounting for the majority of NMSC-related deaths. Treatment options for NMSC include both surgical and non-surgical modalities. Even though surgical ap...
متن کاملPhotodynamic therapy (PDT)
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a comparatively novel therapeutic method involving a safe light source and a light-sensitive substance, termed as photosensitizers (PSs), such as methylene blue (MB), toluidine blue (TBO), sulfonated aluminum phthalocyanine, chlorine derivatives, nontoxic indocyanine green (ICG), and curcumin (CUR). (1) The combination of a nontoxic PS with low-intensity visible li...
متن کاملNanoparticle Platforms for Combined Photothermal and Photodynamic Therapy
Phototherapy is a promising strategy for cancer treatment due to its selective and localized therapeutic effect by laser irradiation. Photothermal therapy damages malignant cells by using heat converted from light by an agent. On the other hand, photodynamic therapy uses photosensitizers that become cytotoxic upon irradiation with laser light at excitation wavelength. As singular treatment of e...
متن کاملPhotodynamic therapy: combined modality approaches targeting the tumor microenvironment.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Photodynamic therapy causes direct cytotoxicity to malignant cells within a tumor. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) can also have both direct and indirect effects upon various non-malignant components of the tumor microenvironment. This action can lead to PDT-mediated angiogenesis and inflammation, which are emerging as important determinants of PDT responsiveness. STUDY D...
