Abstract:
Objective To investigate the possibility of using 5-aminolevulinic acid(5-ALA)induced protoporphyrin IX(PpIX)for photodynamic therapy(PDT)of nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)cell line CNE2 cultured in vitro.Methods CNE2 cells cultured were incubated in a medium containing various concentrations of 5-ALA(0.01,0.05,0.1,0.25,0.5,1.0,2.0,4.0mmol/L)for 6 hours,then illuminated with different light doses(20,10,5,2J/cm2)using a semiconductor laser at 630nm.After 6,12,24 hours incubation with 5-ALA-PDT,the survival rates of CNE2 cells were analyzed by MTT assay.Results 5-ALA-PDT may effectively kill the CNE2 cells.The killing degree was positively correlated with the incubation time after irradiation,concentration of 5-ALA and the dosage of radiation(P
