Abstract
5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a natural amino acid and a precursor of heme and chlorophyll. Exogenously administered 5-ALA is metabolized into protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). PpIX accumulates in cancer cells because of the low activity of ferrochelatase, an enzyme that metabolizes PpIX to heme. High expression of 5-ALA influx transporters, such as peptide transporters 1/2, in cancer cells also enhances PpIX production. Because PpIX radiates red fluorescence when excited with blue/violet light, 5-ALA has been used for the visualization of various tumors. 5-ALA photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) has been shown to improve the tumor removal rate in high-grade gliomas and non-muscular invasive bladder cancers. However, 5-ALA PDD remains a challenge as a diagnostic method because tissue autofluorescence interferes with PpIX signals in cases where tumors emit only weak signals, and non-tumorous lesions, such as inflammatory sites, tend to emit PpIX fluorescence. Here, we review the current outline of 5-ALA PDD and strategies for improving its diagnostic applicability for tumor detection, focusing on optical techniques and 5-ALA metabolic pathways in both viable and necrotic tumor tissues.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the second most common cancer in Japan. The incidence of gastric cancer remains high owing to the increase in the elderly population. Endoscopy outperforms radiography in identifying early gastric cancer (EGC). Furthermore, image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) has been developed and implemented worldwide in clinical practice. Magnifying IEE images can help to visualize the microvascular pattern and microstructure architecture, which is used for the characterization of EGC. However, accurate endoscopic diagnosis requires the experience and skill of endoscopists, making an objective and simple diagnostic method desirable. In this retrospective study, we investigated the diagnostic yield of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)-mediated photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) for identifying gastric cancers and high-grade adenomas. In total, 52 lesions from 43 patients were ultimately included in the study. We detected 5-ALA-mediated protoporphyrin IX fluorescence in 45 of the 52 lesions that were initially intended for PDD, resulting in a detection rate of 86.5%, whereas each signet ring cell carcinoma was negative using 5-ALA PDD. In eight of the patients with multiple lesions, 17 lesions were identified using 5-ALA PDD. Again, we took biopsies from six areas that we suspected as new lesions. While 4 lesions were gastric neoplasms resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection, two other lesions were normal. Preoperative 5-ALA-PDD could provide additional diagnostic yields to detect such multiple lesions simultaneously. No severe adverse events were observed. Prospective multicenter studies are warranted to confirm the usefulness of 5-ALA PDD for EGC identification.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate diagnosis of the disease extension of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is often difficult in clinical practice. The diagnostic yield of conventional pre-operative imaging or endoscopic procedures is sometimes insufficient for the evaluation of longitudinal spreading of CCA. Here we investigated the usefulness of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) for the pre- or intra-operative diagnosis of CCA, using patient-derived organoids. METHODS Four CCA- and two adjacent tissue-derived organoids were established. After 5-ALA treatment, we assessed their photodynamic activity using fluorescence microscopy. RESULTS CCA organoids established from different patients showed diverse morphology in contrast to monolayer structures of non-tumor organoids, and had the ability to form subcutaneous tumors in immunodeficient mice. CCA organoids demonstrated remarkably high photodynamic activity based on higher accumulation of protoporphyrin IX as a metabolite of 5-ALA compared to non-tumor organoids (40-71% vs. < 4%, respectively). Importantly, cancer cell-specific high photodynamic activity distinguished the organoids originated from biliary stenotic lesions from those of non-stenotic lesions in a CCA patient. The high photodynamic activity did not depend on the expression profile of heme biosynthesis genes. CONCLUSIONS Distinct 5-ALA-based photodynamic activity could have diagnostic potential for the discrimination of CCA from non-tumor tissues.

Abstract
New diagnostic techniques based on photodynamic medicine, such as near-infrared fluorescence using indocyanine green (NIR-ICG) and 5-aminolevulinic acid-mediated photodynamic diagnosis (ALA-PDD), are aiding navigation tasks across various fields of surgery. Specifically, NIR-ICG is being used for the intraoperative identification of sentinel lymph nodes or blood vessels in organ resection and for blood flow evaluation in surgery. These ICG-fluorescent imaging techniques could provide an additional and potentially valuable way to identify vascular and lymphatic structures in surrounding tissue. 5-Aminolevulinic acid is a precursor of a photosensitizing substance with affinity for tumors; thus, diagnostic laparoscopy using ALA-PDD in combination should improve the accuracy of detecting peritoneal dissemination in patients with advanced gastric cancer. The ability to overlay fluorescent imaging with conventional color images in real time using ALA-PDD and NIR with ICG would be of immense benefit to surgeons, providing good visualization and detection of target lesions not seen with the naked eye. A multi-center clinical study examining the safety and efficacy of ALA-PDD during laparoscopic examination for patients with advanced gastric cancer is currently underway in the form of doctor-initiated trials, and further verification studies will be conducted. Such imaging capability could have broad potential across cancer and vascular surgery.

Abstract
Background Photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) is an optical imaging technology based on the fundamental biological features of porphyrin metabolized in cancer cells. We reported the usefulness of laser-based photodynamic endoscopic diagnosis (LPDED) with 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) for early gastric cancers. However, the first-generation prototype endoscope system had the flaw that the images captured were rather dark. To overcome this, we constructed a next-generation endoscope system for LPDED. Methods We evaluated the usefulness of the next-generation prototype endoscope system, called Sie-P2, for brighter LPDED to detect early gastric cancer (EGC) and gastric adenoma. The 14 patients diagnosed with EGC and/or gastric adenoma who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) at our hospital between April 2018 and March 2019 were enrolled consecutively in this study. Patients were administered 5-ALA orally and LPDED was performed 3 h later. The primary endpoint was the presence of fluorescence in tumors when we performed LPDED. The secondary endpoint was to assess the adverse events related to each LPDED procedure. Results One patient was excluded because of a contraindication, while the remaining 13 patients (median 72 years, range 56-77; one female) with 16 lesions were assessed. There were 10 elevated lesions and 6 flat/depressed lesions; there were 10 EGCs and 6 adenomas. LPDED-fluorescence was detected in all 16 lesions (sensitivity 100%, 95% confidence interval 79-100%). Two cases showed temporary, though not substantial, elevation in blood liver function tests. Conclusion All lesions examined were LPDED-positive, indicating that the Sie-P2 system could be useful.

Abstract
Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), an aggressive type of T-cell malignancy, is caused by the human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-1) infections. The outcomes, following therapeutic interventions for ATL, have not been satisfactory. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) exerts selective cytotoxic activity against malignant cells, as it is considered a minimally invasive therapeutic procedure. In PDT, photosensitizing agent administration is followed by irradiation at an absorbance wavelength of the sensitizer in the presence of oxygen, with ultimate direct tumor cell death, microvasculature injury, and induced local inflammatory reaction. This review provides an overview of the present status and state-of-the-art ATL treatments. It also focuses on the photodynamic detection (PDD) of hematopoietic malignancies and the recent progress of 5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-PDT/PDD, which can efficiently induce ATL leukemic cell-specific death with minor influence on normal lymphocytes. Further consideration of the ALA-PDT/PDD system along with the circulatory system regarding the clinical application in ATL and others will be discussed. ALA-PDT/PDD can be promising as a novel treatment modality that overcomes unmet medical needs with the optimization of PDT parameters to increase the effectiveness of the tumor-killing activity and enhance the innate and adaptive anti-tumor immune responses by the optimized immunogenic cell death.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the capabilities of laser spectral and video fluorescence diagnosis used for stomach tumors using 5-ALA photosensitizer. The spectroscopic method is presented with an example of a characteristic fluorescence spectrum from stomach with 5-ALA and quantitative statistics. The laser excitation wavelength was 632.8 nm. The analysis of the video system is presented with clinical statistics. The penetration depth of 3-4 mm of the He-Ne laser during the spectroscopic study allowed for scanning the mucous and submucous layers of the stomach and for detecting tumorous growths in these layers. Registration of fluorescence using the spectral system enabled surgeons to conduct express estimation of dubious stomach tissues, to make biopsy from doubtful areas to reveal precancer and early cancer states. The video fluorescence analysis with the application of 5-ALA-induced PPIX may be recommended for the use as an express method of diagnosis including early diagnosis of malignant stomach diseases as well as for intraoperative assessment of tumor extension and detection of canceromatous foci during laparoscopy. The optimal time interval for the diagnosis (regardless of the nature of the study - endoscopic, laparoscopic, or intraoperative) is 2-4 h from the administration of photosensitizer. The optimal dose of the photosensitizer is 20 mg per 1 kg of the body weight.

Abstract
Fluorescence guided surgery is an emerging technology that may improve accuracy of pulmonary resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Herein we explore optical imaging for NSCLC surgery using the well-studied protoporphyrin IX (PPIX)/5-aminiolevulinic acid (5-ALA) system. More specifically, we evaluate fluorescent patterns observed when using (1) commonly utilized in vitro and murine NSCLC models and with (2) spontaneous canine NSCLCs, which closely mimic human disease. Using flow cytometry and fluorescent microscopy, we confirmed that NSCLC models fluoresce after exposure to 5-ALA in vitro. High levels of fluorescence were similarly observed in murine tumors within 2 hours of systemic 5-ALA delivery. When evaluating this approach in spontaneous canine NSCLC, tumor fluorescence was observed in 6 of 7 canines. Tumor fluorescence, however, was heterogenous owing to intratumoral variations in cellularity and necrosis. Margin and lymph node detection was inaccurate. These data demonstrate the importance of incorporating reliable cancer models into preclinical evaluations of optical agents. Utilization of spontaneous large animal models of cancer may further provide an important intermediate in the path to human translation of optical contrast agents.

Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive T-cell neoplasm caused by human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I). Therapeutic interventions have not been associated with satisfactory outcomes. We showed that the porphyrin metabolic pathway preferentially accumulates the endogenous photosensitive metabolite, protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) in ATL, after a short-term culture with 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA). PpIX accumulated 10-100-fold more in ATL leukemic cells when compared to healthy peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Patient specimens showed dynamic changes in flow cytometry profiles during the onset and progression of ATL. Furthermore, 98.7% of ATL leukemic cell death in the ATL patient specimens could be induced with 10 min of visible light exposure, while 77.5% of normal PBMCs survived. Metabolomics analyses revealed that a specific stage of the metabolic pathway progressively deteriorated with HTLV-I infection and at the onset of ATL. Therefore, this method will be useful in diagnosing and identifying high-risk HTLV-I carriers with single cell resolutions. Photodynamic therapy in the circulatory system may be a potential treatment due to its highly-specific, non-invasive, safe, simultaneous, and repeatedly-treatable modalities.

Pogue BW, Rosenthal EL, Achilefu S, van Dam GM. Perspective review of what is needed for molecular-specific fluorescence-guided surgery. JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL OPTICS 2018; 23:1-9.

Abstract
Molecular image-guided surgery has the potential for translating the tools of molecular pathology to real-time guidance in surgery. As a whole, there are incredibly positive indicators of growth, including the first United States Food and Drug Administration clearance of an enzyme-biosynthetic-activated probe for surgery guidance, and a growing number of companies producing agents and imaging systems. The strengths and opportunities must be continued but are hampered by important weaknesses and threats within the field. A key issue to solve is the inability of macroscopic imaging tools to resolve microscopic biological disease heterogeneity and the limitations in microscopic systems matching surgery workflow. A related issue is that parsing out true molecular-specific uptake from simple-enhanced permeability and retention is hard and requires extensive pathologic analysis or multiple in vivo tests, comparing fluorescence accumulation with standard histopathology and immunohistochemistry. A related concern in the field is the over-reliance on a finite number of chosen preclinical models, leading to early clinical translation when the probe might not be optimized for high intertumor variation or intratumor heterogeneity. The ultimate potential may require multiple probes, as are used in molecular pathology, and a combination with ultrahigh-resolution imaging and image recognition systems, which capture the data at a finer granularity than is possible by the surgeon. Alternatively, one might choose a more generalized approach by developing the tracer based on generic hallmarks of cancer to create a more "one-size-fits-all" concept, similar to metabolic aberrations as exploited in fluorodeoxyglucose - positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) (i.e., Warburg effect) or tumor acidity. Finally, methods to approach the problem of production cost minimization and regulatory approvals in a manner consistent with the potential revenue of the field will be important. In this area, some solid steps have been demonstrated in the use of fluorescent labeling commercial antibodies and separately in microdosing studies with small molecules.

Protoporphyrinogen oxidase is involved in the fluorescence intensity of 5-aminolevulinic acid-mediated laser-based photodynamic endoscopic diagnosis for early gastric cancer. Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2018; 22:79-85. [PMID: 29425880 DOI: 10.1016/j.pdpdt.2018.02.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2017] [Revised: 01/10/2018] [Accepted: 02/05/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Laser-based photodynamic endoscopic diagnosis (LPDED) is a type of endoscopic diagnosis that uses the fluorescence caused by the photochemical reaction that occurs when a fluorescent substance is irradiated by a light of a specific wavelength. Although 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) can detect early gastric cancer (EGC) during LPDED, there is an unresolved issue of the differences in fluorescence intensity among histopathological types of gastric cancer. Thus, the aim of the present study was to assess whether protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPOX), involved in the activation of protoporphyrin IX, can affect the fluorescence intensity in EGC. METHODS Thirty-three gastric tumor lesions in 30 patients were assessed by LPDED using a prototype endoscope equipped with a blue laser ray to cause excitation following oral 5-ALA administration. The tumors were then resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection or laparoscopic surgery. PPOX expression was examined immunohistochemically in the excised specimens. To explore the mechanisms of histopathological diversity in PPOX and coproporphyrinogen oxidase (CPOX) expression of EGC, immunohistochemical analysis was performed using 75 surgically resected specimens of diverse EGCs. RESULTS Among the 33 lesions, 26 tumors were detectable by LPDED, whereas seven were undetectable. Between the LPDED-positive and negative groups, there was a significant difference in histopathology. The expression of PPOX was higher in tubular adenocarcinoma (tub) than in signet-ring cell carcinoma (sig). There were significant differences in PPOX and CPOX expression scores of the surgically resected specimens among tub, poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (por), and sig. CONCLUSION PPOX protein expression could be involved in the fluorescence intensity of LPDED in EGC, possibly reflecting histopathological features.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 5-Aminolevulinic acid is a precursor of photosensitizing protoporphyrin IX and has been applied for photodynamic diagnosis of brain and bladder tumors with few side effects. Although most upper gastrointestinal tumors can be detected during photodynamic diagnosis, some tumors containing signet-ring cells cannot be visualized. Here, we aimed to assess whether proteins involved in the absorbance, activation, and turnover of protoporphyrin IX altered the fluorescence signal in gastric cancer. METHODS Aminolevulinic acid-mediated photodynamic diagnosis was performed in 23 lesions from 20 patients using an endoscope equipped with a blue laser light that caused red fluorescence emission of photosensitizing protoporphyrin IX. Red fluorescence signal and intensity was assessed during photodynamic diagnosis procedures. Lesions were resected by endoscopic and/or laparoscopic surgery, and specimens were immunostained and assessed for the expression of ATP-binding cassette sub-family G member 2, oligopeptide transporter-1, and coproporphyrinogen oxidase. RESULTS Photodynamic diagnosis was negative in four cases (17.4%). Three cases of photodynamic diagnosis-negative lesions were signet-ring cell carcinomas, and only one case was differentiated adenocarcinoma (intestinal type). Twenty intestinal type, photodynamic diagnosis-positive lesions showed high expression of coproporphyrinogen oxidase, whereas signet-ring cell carcinomas were all negative. Oligopeptide transporter-1 immunoreactivity was significantly higher in tumors of intestinal type. ATP-binding cassette sub-family G member 2 expression tended to be higher in luminal surface tumors than in intestinal type tumors. CONCLUSION Aminolevulinic acid-mediated photodynamic diagnosis provided good detection of upper gastrointestinal tumors of intestinal type but not diffuse type tumors, such as signet-ring cell carcinomas, possibly owing to coproporphyrinogen oxidase expression.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising therapeutic modality that involves the administration of a photosensitizer followed by local illumination with a specific wavelength of light in the presence of oxygen. PDT is minimally invasive, has high selectivity for cancer, and has good patient compliance due to the simplicity of the procedure; therefore, PDT is widely used as a palliative and salvage treatment in patients with various gastrointestinal malignancies. When used as a salvage treatment for locoregional failures after definitive chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer, favorable results have been reported. PDT in conjunction with biliary stenting is a promising palliative treatment for unresectable cholangiocarcinoma, and can be used as an advanced diagnostic and therapeutic strategy in peritoneal dissemination of gastric cancer. Recent clinical reports of PDT for treating non-resectable pancreatic cancer also show promising results. To widen the application of PDT, the integration of PDT with molecular imaging and nanotechnology is being extensively studied. Based on these new developments, PDT is likely to re-emerge as a valuable technique in the treatment of diverse gastrointestinal diseases.
