Luminescence and photosensitivity of gadolinium labeled hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether.

چکیده
Photodynamic therapy for deep-lying lesions needs an appropriate imaging modality, precise evaluation of tissue oxygen and an effective photosensitizer. Gadolinium based metalloporphyrins Gd(III)-HMME is proposed in this study as a potential multifunctional theranostic agent, as photosensitizer, ratiometric oxygen sensor and MRI contrast agent. The time resolved spectroscopy revealed the luminescence peak of Gd(III)-HMME at 710 and 779 nm with a lifetime of 64 μs in oxygen-free methanol to be phosphorescent. This phosphorescence is strongly dependent on dissolved oxygen concentration. Its intensity in oxygen saturated methanol solution is 21% of that in deoxygenated solution. The singlet oxygen quantum yields ΦΔ of HMME and Gd(III)-HMME in air saturated methanol solution were determined to be 0.79 and 0.40 respectively using comparative spectra method. These phenomena indicate that the oxygen sensibility and production of singlet oxygen of Gd(III)-HMME can fulfill the requirement of PDT treatment.

Optimal discrimination threshold for the detection of singlet oxygen luminescence
In this work, a near-infrared CCD-based singlet oxygen luminescence two-dimensional imaging method is proposed to detect singlet oxygen by its 1270nm luminescence. Two-dimensional singlet oxygen images with its near-infrared luminescence during photosensitization could be obtained with a CCD integration time of 1s, without scanning. The data presented shows a linear relationship between the sin...
متن کاملPhotodynamic Inactivation of Candida albicans by Hematoporphyrin
Aim: To evaluate the capacity of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether 23 (HMME) in the presence of light to cause photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of C. 24 albicans. Materials & methods: HMME photoactivity was evaluated against 25 azole-susceptible and resistant C. albicans. The mechanisms by which PDI of C. 26 albicans occurred were also investigated. Results: HMME-mediated PACT caused a 27 dose-de...

Objectives. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether- (HMME-) mediated sonodynamic therapy (SDT) on experimental periodontal disease in rats. Methods. Periodontal disease was induced by submerging ligatures at the first maxillary molar subgingival region in forty-eight male SD rats. After 30 days, the ligatures were removed. The rats were randomly allocated i...

متن کاملThe application of hyaluronic acid-derivatized carbon nanotubes in hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether-based photodynamic therapy for in vivo and in vitro cancer treatment
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have shown great potential in both photothermal therapy and drug delivery. In this study, a CNT derivative, hyaluronic acid-derivatized CNTs (HA-CNTs) with high aqueous solubility, neutral pH, and tumor-targeting activity, were synthesized and characterized, and then a new photodynamic therapy agent, hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME), was adsorbed onto the function...
