Abstract:
Objective To study the killing effect of hypocrellins B-photodynamic therapy (HB-PDT) for lung cancer cell line A549, to compare with that of hematoporphyrin derivative-photodynamic therapy (HpD -PDT), in order to define the superiority of HB-PDT in the therapy of lung cancer. Methods Lung cancer cell line A549 was used in the study. The cells were incubated in vitro with HB or HpD dissolved in DMEM in different concentrations, and then irradiated by copper vapor laser with mixed wavelength light under saturated light dose. Cell survival rate was respectively measured by MTT assay after 24 hours' incubation. According to cell survival curves after being cultured with different photosensitizers in different concentrations, the equation of each cell survival curve was plotted. Finally IC 50 (50% inhibition concentration) of each photosensitizer was derived. Results The results showed that HB-PDT had a strong killing effect on lung cancer cell. The IC 50 of HB was 33.82ng/ml for lung cancer cell, while the IC 50 of HpD was 1 316.88ng/ml, which was 38.94 fold of that of HB. Conclusions HB was a more effective photosensitizer than the photosensitizer HpD. HB-PDT had strong photodynamic killing effect on lung cancer cell line.
