Abstract
Retinoblastoma (RB) is a rare ocular cancer seen in children that counts for approximately 3% of all childhood cancers. It is found that mutation in RB1, a tumour Suppressor Gene on chromosome 13 as the cause of malignancy. Retinoblastoma protein is the target for ceramide to cause apoptosis. We studied lipidomics of two RB cell lines, one aggressive cell line (NCC-RbC-51) derived from a metastatic site and one non aggressive cell line (WERI-Rb1) in comparison with a control cell line (MIO-M1). Lipid profiles of all the cell lines were studied using high resolution mass spectrometer coupled to high performance liquid chromatography. Data acquired from all the three cell lines in positive mode were analyzed to identify differentially expressed metabolites. Several phospholipids and lysophospholipids were found to be dysregulated. We observed upregulation of hexosyl ceramides, and down regulation of dihydroceramides and higher order sphingoglycolipids hinting at a hindered sphingolipid biosynthesis. The results obtained from liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry are validated by using qPCR and it was observed that genes involved in ceramide biosynthesis pathway are getting down regulated.

Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15010197. [PMID: 36678826 PMCID: PMC9867105 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15010197] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive laser light local treatment that has been utilized in the management of a wide variety of solid tumors. Moreover, the evaluation of efficacy, adverse reactions, the development of new photosensitizers and the latest therapeutic regimens are inseparable from the preliminary exploration in preclinical studies. Therefore, our aim was to better comprehend the characteristics and limitations of these models and to provide a reference for related research. METHODS We searched the databases, including PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus for the past 25 years of original research articles on the feasibility of PDT in tumor treatment based on preclinical experiments and animal models. We provided insights into inclusion and exclusion criteria and ultimately selected 40 articles for data synthesis. RESULTS After summarizing and comparing the methods and results of these studies, the experimental model selection map was drawn. There are 7 main preclinical models, which are used for different research objectives according to their characteristics. CONCLUSIONS Based on this narrative review, preclinical experimental models are crucial to the development and promotion of PDT for tumors. The traditional animal models have some limitations, and the emergence of organoids may be a promising new insight.

Abstract
The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a severe recessive X-linked immunodeficiency resulting from loss-of-function mutations in the WAS gene. Mouse is the only mammalian model used for investigation of WAS pathogenesis. However, the mouse model does not accurately recapitulate WAS clinical phenotypes, thus, limiting its application in WAS clinical research. Herein, we report the generation of WAS knockout (KO) rabbits via embryo co-injection of Cas9 mRNA and a pair of sgRNAs targeting exons 2 and 7. WAS KO rabbits exhibited many symptoms similar to those of WAS patients, including thrombocytopenia, bleeding tendency, infections, and reduced numbers of T cell in the spleen and peripheral blood. The WAS KO rabbit model provides a new valuable tool for preclinical trials of WAS treatment.

Increasing the efficiency of the retinoblastoma brachytherapy protocol with ultrasonic hyperthermia and gold nanoparticles: a rabbit model. Int J Radiat Biol 2020; 96:1614-1627. [PMID: 33074061 DOI: 10.1080/09553002.2020.1838657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study purposed to evaluate the efficacy of brachytherapy with the modality of ultrasonic hyperthermia in the presence of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) on an ocular retinoblastoma tumor in an animal model of the rabbit. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retinoblastoma tumor was induced by the injection of the human cell line of Y79 in rabbit eyes (n = 41). After two weeks, tumor size reached a diameter of about 5-7 mm. Seven groups were involved: control, GNPs injection, hyperthermia, hyperthermia with GNPs injection, brachytherapy with I-125, a combination of hyperthermia and brachytherapy, and a combination of brachytherapy, hyperthermia and, GNPs. The tumor area was measured using B-mode ultrasound images on the zero-day and at the end of the third week. The groups were evaluated for a histopathological study of tumor necrosis. RESULTS There was a significant difference between the relative area changes of tumor in the combination group with the other study groups (p < .05). The results of histopathologic studies confirmed the necrosis of living retinoblastoma cells. CONCLUSION Combination therapy of brachytherapy and hyperthermia with GNPs reduces the relative size of the tumor. This method increases the necrosis percentage of retinoblastoma and significantly reduces the retinoblastoma mass in the rabbit eyes.
