Indocyanine green as a prospective sensitizer for photodynamic therapy of melanomas.
Spectroscopic, photochemical and biological properties of indocyanine green (ICG) are presented. Light over 800 nm is effectively absorbed by ICG. This property as well as photochemical behaviour of ICG make it a very suitable dye for photodynamic treatment of melanoma cells. Cytotoxicity of ICG itself and the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) were evaluated by following the growth of human ...
متن کاملTritolylporphyrin dimer as a new potent hydrophobic sensitizer for photodynamic therapy of melanoma.
We report the synthesis, photochemical and photophysical properties and preliminary studies on biological effect of a new tritolylporphyrin dimer (T-D). Absorption and emission properties of T-D suggest its possible use in photodynamic therapy. T-D is capable of singlet oxygen production with 0.8 quantum yield. It also has a high photostability. The photodynamic properties of the dimer were exa...
متن کاملImidazole-modified porphyrin as a pH-responsive sensitizer for cancer photodynamic therapy.
5,10,15,20-Tetrakis(N-(2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethyl)benzamide)porphyrin produced twice as many singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) molecules at pH 5.0 (quantum yield 0.53 ± 0.01) than at pH 7.4, whereas the (1)O(2) quenching rate was reduced by a factor of 2.5 for a pH change from 7.4 to 5.0.
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 کاملFluorinated Photodynamic Therapy Device Tips and their Resistance to Fouling for In Vivo Sensitizer Release.
We describe progress on a one-step photodynamic therapy (PDT) technique that is simple: device tip delivery of sensitizer, oxygen and light simultaneously. Control is essential for their delivery to target sites to generate singlet oxygen. One potential problem is the silica device tip may suffer from biomaterial fouling and the pace of sensitizer photorelease is slowed. Here, we have used biom...
