Abstract
The aim of this study is to prepare reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive nanophotosensitizers for targeted delivery of chlorin e6 (Ce6) and photodynamic tumor therapy. For this purpose, thiodipropionic acid (TDPA) was conjugated with phenyl boronic acid pinacol ester (PBAP) (TDPA-PBAP conjugates) and then the TDPA-PBAP conjugates were attached to the chitosan backbone of chitosan-g-methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (ChitoPEG) copolymer (ChitoPEG-PBAP). Ce6-incorporated ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizers have an ROS-sensitive manner in vitro. The size of ChitoPEG-PBAP nanoparticles increased or disintegrated in a responsive manner against H2O2 concentration. The Ce6 release rate from ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizers also increased by adding H2O2. These results indicated that nanophotosensitizers have sensitivity against ROS and showed triggered Ce6 release behavior. ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizers can be more efficiently internalized into cancer cells compared to Ce6 alone and then produce ROS in a more efficient manner. Furthermore, ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizers suppressed the viability of cancer cells in vitro and tumor growth in vivo with higher efficacy compared to Ce6 alone. Furthermore, ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizers were efficiently delivered to irradiated tumor tissues, indicating that ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizers can be delivered to the tumor with ROS-sensitive manner. We suggest that a ChitoPEG-PBAP nanophotosensitizer is a promising candidate for photodynamic therapy of cancers.

Retinoblastoma: Etiology, Modeling, and Treatment. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12082304.

Abstract
Retinoblastoma is a retinal cancer that is initiated in response to biallelic loss of RB1 in almost all cases, together with other genetic/epigenetic changes culminating in the development of cancer. RB1 deficiency makes the retinoblastoma cell-of-origin extremely susceptible to cancerous transformation, and the tumor cell-of-origin appears to depend on the developmental stage and species. These are important to establish reliable preclinical models to study the disease and develop therapies. Although retinoblastoma is the most curable pediatric cancer with a high survival rate, advanced tumors limit globe salvage and are often associated with high-risk histopathological features predictive of dissemination. The advent of chemotherapy has improved treatment outcomes, which is effective for globe preservation with new routes of targeted drug delivery. However, molecularly targeted therapeutics with more effectiveness and less toxicity are needed. Here, we review the current knowledge concerning retinoblastoma genesis with particular attention to the genomic and transcriptomic landscapes with correlations to clinicopathological characteristics, as well as the retinoblastoma cell-of-origin and current disease models. We further discuss current treatments, clinicopathological correlations, which assist in guiding treatment and may facilitate globe preservation, and finally we discuss targeted therapeutics for future treatments.

Abstract
Here we describe creation of a model of intraocular retinoblastoma on 4 mature immunodeficient BALB/c nude mice of both sexes. A suspension of the primary retinoblastoma culture was injected into each of the 8 eyes of the test animals. The injections were performed under the control of an operating microscope using insulin syringes with a diameter of 29G transsclerally into the subretinal space in a volume of 0.3 ml at a rate of 10,000 cells in 25 μl physiological saline. The culture of Rb10 cells derived from a patient with retinoblastoma passed 12 passages at the time of the experiments. After 9-week follow-up, a clinical (ophthalmoscopy) and instrumental (ultrasound) study was performed with visualization of the tumor mass on the fundus. After enucleation, a morphological study was performed. The retinoblastoma tumor nodes were identified in two eyes. The proposed model can be used for further research and for testing new chemotherapeutic drugs and treatment regimens for retinoblastoma.

Craniofacial second primary tumors in patients with germline retinoblastoma previously treated with external beam radiotherapy: A retrospective institutional analysis. Pediatr Blood Cancer 2020; 67:e28158. [PMID: 31904159 DOI: 10.1002/pbc.28158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2019] [Revised: 12/16/2019] [Accepted: 12/17/2019] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The long-term survival of germline retinoblastoma patients is decreased due to the risk of second primary tumors (SPTs) that occur years after the diagnosis of retinoblastoma. This risk is related to genetic predisposition and other factors, such as the treatment of retinoblastoma by external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). PROCEDURE We studied the incidence, risk factors, and prognosis of specific craniofacial SPTs developed within the margins of radiation field in a cohort of 209 patients with germline retinoblastoma treated with EBRT at our institution between 1977 and 2010. Clinical characteristics, survival, incidence, and histology of craniofacial SPTs were recorded. RESULTS Fifty-three of the 209 patients developed 60 distinct craniofacial SPTs in irradiated field with a median time from EBRT of 16.9 years (4-35) and a median follow-up of 24.8 years (5.3-40). Osteosarcoma (33.3%) and undifferentiated sarcoma (23.3%) were the more prevalent histological entities. Benign tumors (16.7%) also occurred. The cumulative incidence of craniofacial SPTs reached 32.6% at 35 years after EBRT, and the median survival after diagnosis was five years. In our series, irradiation under 12 months of age, bilateral EBRT, or previous treatment of retinoblastoma with chemotherapy did not significantly increase the risk of craniofacial SPTs. CONCLUSIONS This work presents a strong argument to avoid EBRT in the management of retinoblastoma and emphasizes the high risk and poor prognosis of specific craniofacial SPTs. This study also points to the question of the need and benefits of special programs for early detection of craniofacial SPTs in survivors of irradiated germline retinoblastoma.

Abstract
Tetraphenylporphyrins (TPPs) have been proposed for the treatment of retinoblastoma by photodynamic therapy. Glycoconjugated compounds were synthesized for improving TPP solubility and amphipathy, and to specifically target mannose receptors overexpressed at the surface of cells. The efficiency of four TPP derivatives with different chemical structures was compared by phototoxicity tests and flow cytometry experiments. Interestingly, the absence/presence and distribution of saccharide moieties in the various compounds affected differently their mechanism of interaction with cancer cells and their phototoxic efficiency. For glycodendrimeric TPP-1 and TPP-2 incubated with retinoblastoma cells, a fast two-step uptake-equilibrium process was observed, whereas for a dendrimeric TPP without saccharide moieties (TPP-1c) and a glycoconjugated compound with no dendrimeric structure (TPP(DegMan)[Formula: see text] uptake was very slow. The difference in uptake profiles and kinetics between TPP-1c on the one hand and TPP-1 and TPP-2 on the other hand would account for the interaction of the two glycodendrimeric compounds with a mannose receptor. These TPPs encapsulated in endosomes would induce less damage to cells upon illumination. TPP(DegMan)[Formula: see text] showed the highest phototoxicity, but its efficiency was unaffected by pretreatment of cells by mannan. The penetration of this glycoconjugated compound in cells and its phototoxic effect appeared independent of its interaction with a mannose receptor. Thus, if glycoconjugation influenced TPPs behavior in solution and interaction with serum proteins, phototoxicity was not necessarily related to upfront molecular recognition.

Abstract
Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy was used to highlight the interactions between two photosensitisers (PS) of different geometries, TPPmOH4 and a glycoconjugated analogous, TPPDegMan, and lipid bilayers modelling retinoblastoma cell membranes. Retinoblastoma is a rare disease occurring in young infants, for whom conservative treatments may present harmful side-effects. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is expected to induce less side-effects, as the photosensitiser is only activated when the tumour is illuminated. Since efficiency of the treatment relies on photosensitiser penetration in cancer cells, bilayers with three lipid compositions - pure SOPC, SOPC/SOPE/SOPS/Chol (56:23:11:10) and SOPC/SOPE/SOPS/Chol/CL (42:32:9:8:6) - were used as plasma and mitochondria model membranes. FTIR spectra showed that the interaction of the PSs with the lipid bilayers impacted the lipid organization of the latter, causing significant spectral variations. Both studied photosensitisers inserted at the level of lipid hydrophobic chains, increasing chain fluidity and disorder. This was confirmed by surface pressure measurements. Photosensitisers - TPPmOH4 more than TPPDegMan - also interacted with the polar region of the bilayer, forming hydrogen bonds with phosphate groups that induced major shifts of phosphate absorption bands. This difference in PS interaction with moieties in the polar region was more pronounced with the models with complex lipid composition.

Abstract
Retinoblastoma is a tumor that mainly affects children under 5 years, all over the world. The origin of these tumors is related with mutations in the RB1 gene, which may result from genetic alterations in cells of the germ line or in retinal somatic cells. In developing countries, the number of retinoblastoma-related deaths is higher due to less access to treatment, unlike what happens in developed countries where survival rates are higher. However, treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy, although quite effective in treating this type of cancer, do not avoid high indices of mortality due to secondary malignances which are quite frequent in these patients. Additionally, treatments such as cryotherapy, thermotherapy, thermochemotherapy, or brachytherapy represent other options for retinoblastoma. When all these approaches fail, enucleation is the last option. Photodynamic therapy might be considered as an alternative, particularly because of its non-mutagenic character. Photodynamic therapy is a treatment modality based on the administration of photosensitizing molecules that only upon irradiation of the tumor with a light source of appropriate wavelength are activated, triggering its antitumor action. This activity may be not only due to direct damage to tumor cells but also due to damage caused to the blood vessels responsible for the vascular supply of the tumor. Over the past decades, several in vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to assess the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy in the treatment of retinoblastoma, and very promising results were achieved.

Abstract
Retinoblastoma is a rare cancer that occurs during childhood. The goal of current and future therapeutic strategies is to conserve the eye and visual function without using external beam radiotherapy, which is known to increase the risk of secondary cancers in genetically predisposed patients. Multimodality therapy (usually intravenous but also intra-arterial and intravitreal chemotherapy, transpupillary thermotherapy, cryotherapy, or brachytherapy) has recently improved the eye salvage rate in retinoblastoma and has led to a decreased need for external beam radiotherapy. However, the treatment of advanced intraocular retinoblastoma remains a real challenge, especially in cases of vitreous and subretinal seeding. There is a need for alternative and less toxic therapies as well as for better ways to administer the drugs. Animal models are an integral part of preclinical research in the field of oncology. This paper describes the different xenograft rodent models published in the literature so far. We will also describe a new orthotopic xenografted retinoblastoma model in immunodeficient mice, which is suitable for preclinical assays. The xenograft model was established from tumor tissue obtained directly from surgical samples and closely mimics human retinoblastoma.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has shown to be a promising technique to treat various forms of malignant neoplasia. The photodynamic eradication of the tumor cells is achieved by applying a photosensitizer either locally or systemically and following local activation through irradiation of the tumor mass with light of a specific wavelength after a certain time of incubation. Due to preferential accumulation of the photosensitizer in tumor cells, this procedure allows a selective inactivation of the malignant tumor while sparing the surrounding tissue to the greatest extent. These features and requirements make the PDT an attractive therapeutic option for the treatment of retinoblastoma, especially when surgical enucleation is a curative option. This extreme solution is still in use in case of tumours that are resistant to conventional chemotherapy or handled too late due to poor access to medical care in less advanced country. In this study we initially conducted in-vitro investigations of the new cationic water-soluble photo sensitizer tetrahydroporphyrin-tetratosylat (THPTS) regarding its photodynamic effect on human Rb-1 and Y79 retinoblastoma cells. We were able to show, that neither the incubation with THPTS without following illumination, nor the sole illumination showed a considerable effect on the proliferation of the retinoblastoma cells, whereas the incubation with THPTS combined with following illumination led to a maximal cytotoxic effect on the tumor cells. Moreover the phototoxicity was lower in normal primary cells from retinal pigmented epithelium demonstrating a higher phototoxic effect of THPTS in cancer cells than in this normal retinal cell type. The results at hand form an encouraging foundation for further in-vivo studies on the therapeutic potential of this promising photosensitizer for the eyeball and vision preserving as well as potentially curative therapy of retinoblastoma.

Abstract
Advances in animal models of retinoblastoma have accelerated research in this field, aiding in understanding tumor progression and assessing therapeutic modalities. The distinct pattern of mutations and specific location of this unique intraocular tumor have paved the way for two types of models- those based on genetic mutations, and xenograft models. Retinoblastoma gene knockouts with an additional loss of p107, p130, p53 and using promoters of Nestin, Chx10, and Pax6 genes show histological phenotypic changes close to the human form of retinoblastoma. Conditional knockout in specific layers of the developing retina has thrown light on the origin of this tumor. The use of xenograft models has overcome the obstacle of time delay in the presentation of symptoms, which remains a crucial drawback of genetic models. With the advances in molecular and imaging technologies, the current research aims to develop models that mimic all the features of retinoblastoma inclusive of its initiation, progression and metastasis. The combination of genetic and xenograft models in retinoblastoma research has and will help to pave way for better understanding of retinoblastoma tumor biology and also in designing and testing effective diagnostic and treatment modalities.

Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the evolution over the last 15 years in the Curie Institute of the concept, the development of the design and some properties of glycoconjugated photosensitizers with the aim to optimize the tumor targeting in photodynamic therapy. By this research, we have shown that specific interactions between a mannose-lectin and trimannosylglycodendrimeric porphyrins contributed to a larger extent than non-specific ones to the overall interaction of a glycosylated tetraarylporphyrin with a membrane. The studies of in vitro photocytotoxicity showed the relevance of the global geometry of the photosensitizer, the number and position of the linked glycopyranosyl groups on the chromophore and their lipophilicity. The two best compounds appeared to be porphyrins bearing three α-glycosyl groups on para-position of meso-phenyl via a flexible linker. Compound bearing α-manosyl moieties was evaluated successfully in two in vivo xenografted animal models of human retinoblastoma and colorectal cancers. Conversely, the presence on the chromophore of three sugars via a glycodendrimeric moiety induced a potential cluster effect, but decreased the in vitro photoefficiency despite a good affinity for a mannose-lectin.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in the treatment of choroidal metastasis. DESIGN Retrospective, interventional case series. PARTICIPANTS Nine tumors in 8 eyes of 8 patients. INTERVENTION Photodynamic therapy using verteporfin at a dose of 6 mg/m(2) body surface area and 689 nm diode laser at an intensity of 600 mW/cm(2) for 83 seconds (50 J/cm(2)). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Tumor control and best-corrected visual acuity. RESULTS Nine choroidal metastases in 8 eyes were treated with 1 (8 tumors) or 2 (1 tumor) sessions of PDT. The mean tumor basal diameter was 7 mm (median, 7 mm [range, 2-13 mm]), and mean tumor thickness was 2.9 mm (median, 2.9 mm [range, 1.6-4 mm]). All 9 tumors were associated with shallow subretinal fluid. After PDT, complete control with resolution of subretinal fluid was achieved in 7 tumors (78%), with mean tumor thickness reduction of 39% (median, 43% [range, 6%-61%]). Two tumors failed to respond to PDT, both requiring plaque radiotherapy. Improvement or stabilization of vision was achieved in 7 eyes. Photodynamic therapy-related complications included intraretinal hemorrhage in 1 eye. CONCLUSIONS Photodynamic therapy can be an effective alternative for the treatment of choroidal metastasis.
