Enhanced photodynamic leishmanicidal activity of hydrophobic zinc phthalocyanine within archaeolipids containing liposomes
In this work, the in vitro anti-Leishmania activity of photodynamic liposomes made of soybean phosphatidylcholine, sodium cholate, total polar archaeolipids (TPAs) extracted from the hyperhalophile archaea Halorubrum tebenquichense and the photosensitizer zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPcAL) was compared to that of ultradeformable photodynamic liposomes lacking TPAs (ZnPcUDLs). We found that while ZnPc...
متن کاملDevelopment of tumor vascular endothelium targeted liposomes containing zinc phthalocyanine for application in photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a modality for the removal of solid tumors, in which a photosensitized tumor is irradiated with intense light to activate the photosensitizer and induce local hyperoxidative stress. The production of reactive molecular species at the tumor site results in massive tumor cell death, vascular shutdown, and a prolonged antitumor immune response. Promising results have ...
متن کاملA comparative study of the cellular uptake and photodynamic efficacy of three novel zinc phthalocyanines of differing charge.
Three novel substituted zinc (II) phthalocyanines (one anionic, one cationic and one neutral) were compared to two clinically used photosensitizers, 5,10,15,20-tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (m-THPC) and polyhematoporphyrin (PHP), as potential agents for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Using the RIF-1 cell line, photodynamic efficacy was shown to be related to cellular uptake. The cationic phthalocy...
متن کاملSynthesis of phthalocyanine conjugates with gold nanoparticles and liposomes for photodynamic therapy.
The efficiency of [2,9,17,23-tetrakis-(1,6-hexanedithiol)phthalocyaninato]zinc(II) as a photodynamic therapy (PDT) agent was investigated. This compound belongs to the second generation of photosensitizers currently tested for the cellular photo-damage of cancer cells. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and phototoxicity of the photosensitizer were assessed. Healthy fibroblast cell...
متن کاملPhotophysical studies of zinc phthalocyanine and chloroaluminum phthalocyanine incorporated into liposomes in the presence of additives.
The photophysical properties of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPC) and chloroaluminum phthalocyanine (AlPHCl) incorporated into liposomes of dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine in the presence and absence of additives such as cholesterol or cardiolipin were studied by time-resolved fluorescence, laser flash photolysis and steady-state techniques. The absorbance of the drugs changed linearly with drug conce...
