Abstract
The presence of heavy elements in photosensitizers (PS) strongly influences their electronic and photophysical properties, and hence, conjugation of PS with a suitable element is regarded as a potential strategy to improve their photodynamic properties. Moreover, PS conjugated to metal ion or metal complex and heavy atoms such as halogen have attracted considerable attention as promising agents for multimodal or synergistic cancer therapy. These tetrapyrrole compounds depending on the type and nature of the inorganic elements have been explored for photodynamic therapy (PDT), chemotherapy, X-ray photon activation therapy (PAT), and radiotherapy. Particularly, the combination of metal-based PS and X-ray irradiation has been investigated as a promising novel approach for treating deep-seated tumors, which in the case of PDT is a major limitation due to low light penetration in tissue. This review will summarize the present status of evidence on the effect of insertion of metal or halogen on the photophysical properties of PS and the effectiveness of various metal and halogenated PS investigated for PDT, chemotherapy, and PAT as mono and/or combination therapy.

[PMID: 34959411 PMCID: PMC8705854 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13122130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 12/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness in photodynamic therapy of iron oxide nanoparticles (γ-Fe2O3 NPs), synthesized by laser pyrolysis technique, functionalized with 5,10,15,20-(Tetra-4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin tetraammonium (TPPS) on human cutaneous melanoma cells, after only 1 min blue light exposure. The efficiency of porphyrin loading on the iron oxide nanocarriers was estimated by using absorption and FTIR spectroscopy. The singlet oxygen yield was determined via transient characteristics of singlet oxygen phosphorescence at 1270 nm both for porphyrin functionalized nanoparticles and rose bengal used as standard. The irradiation was performed with a LED (405 nm, 1 mW/cm2) for 1 min after melanoma cells were treated with TPPS functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles (γ-Fe2O3 NPs_TPPS) and incubated for 24 h. Biological tests revealed a high anticancer effect of γ-Fe2O3 NPs_TPPS complexes indi-cated by the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation, reduction of cell adhesion, and induction of cell death through ROS generated by TPPS under light exposure. The biological assays were combined with the pharmacokinetic prediction of the porphyrin.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles (NPs) have recently acquired considerable attention for the development of nanoplatforms with multifunctional properties including photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) activities. In addition to their high PTT performance, they can be easily conjugated to different types of photosensitizers (PSs) to acquire PDT activity. However, because of PDA free-radical scavenging properties, grafting the PSs directly to PDA surfaces may lead to an inefficient PDT outcome. Thus, the present work aims at synthesizing and characterizing a new PEGylated PDA-based nanoplatform with bifunctional PTT and PDT properties, which allows bimodal cancer therapy with the possibility to release the PS on demand in a spatiotemporal fashion. To do so, PDA NPs with a well-defined size and shape were prepared by the auto-oxidative self-polymerization process of dopamine hydrochloride in mild alkaline solution. The impact of the size on the PTT conversion efficiency was then determined. This allowed us to choose the optimal PDA NP size for PTT applications. Next, PDA NPs were decorated with SH-PEG polymers that bear at their extremity a thioketal reactive oxygen species-cleavable linker coupled to trisulfonated-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPPS3) chosen as a hydrophilic PS. The grafting efficiency of PS-conjugated PEG on PDA was demonstrated in situ using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring. In addition, the photoinduced release of the PS was demonstrated by 1H NMR. Finally, PTT/PDT bimodal therapy was assessed in vitro on human squamous esophageal cells by illuminating the PDA NPs at two different wavelengths, which showed the strong synergistic effect of combining PTT and PDT within this nanoplatform.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy, as an effective treatment for superficial tumors, has attracted more and more attention. The development of safe, biocompatible and in vivo photosensitive materials is helpful to promote photodynamic therapy. Here we report green fluorescent carbon quantum dots prepared from a natural vitamin, riboflavin (VB2), as a photosensitizer. The VB2-based carbon dots have excellent water solubility and biocompatibility, and their singlet oxygen generation ability is much stronger than that of riboflavin itself. Through endocytosis, the carbon dots can easily enter the cells and show bright green fluorescence. In vivo experiments show that after photodynamic therapy the carbon dots can significantly inhibit the growth of tumors, and will not have toxic and side effects on other organs.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is one of the treatments for cancer. This therapy uses a combination of a photosensitizer (PS), light irradiation, and oxygen O2, which is converted to cytotoxic 1O2 and other forms of reactive oxygen species (ROS), causing selective damage to the target tissue. In this work, we studied effect of two porphyrin photosensitizers TMPyP and ZnTPPS4 at three different concentrations (0.25, 0.5, 5μM) after two irradiation doses (5 and 25 J/cm2). Photodynamic efect of TMPyP and ZnTPPS4 were confirmed by a battery of in vitro tests including MTT, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and mitochondrial membrane potential test (MMP). Morphological changes of the cells before and after treatment were imaged by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The most effective combination of irradiation dose and concentration for both PSs showed a concentration of 5 μM and a irradiation dose of 25 J/cm2 in both cell cultures.

Abstract
Targeted therapies of various diseases are nowadays widely studied in many biomedical fields. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) represents a modern treatment of cancer using a locally activated light. TMPyP is an efficient synthetic water-soluble photosensitizer (PS), yet with poor absorption in the visible and the red regions. In this work, we prepared size-selected and colloidally stable graphene oxide (GO) that is appropriate for biomedical use. Thanks to the negative surface charge of GO, TMPyP was easily linked in order to create conjugates of GO/TMPyP by electrostatic force. Due to the strong ionic interactions, charge transfers between GO and TMPyP occur, as comprehensively investigated by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. Biocompatibility and an in vitro effect of GO/TMPyP were confirmed by a battery of in vitro tests including MTT, comet assay, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and monitoring the cellular uptake. PDT efficiency of GO/TMPyP was tested using 414 and 740 nm photoexcitation. Our newly prepared nanotherapeutics showed a higher PDT effect than in free TMPyP, and is promising for targeted therapy using clinically favorable conditions.

Abstract
In this review we present an updated survey of the main synthesis methods of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in order to obtain various tailored nanosystems for biomedical imaging. The synthesis approach significantly impacts on the AuNPs properties such as surface chemistry, biocompatibility and cytotoxicity. In recent years, nanomedicine emphasized the development of functionalized AuNPs for biomedical imaging. AuNPs are a good option for used as delivery photosensitizer agents for PDT of cancer. For example, the complex formed from AuNPs functionalized with PEGylate porphyrins presents several advantages in the medical field such as a better use in photodynamic therapy because of high triplet states and singlet oxygen quantum yield efficiency of porphyrin molecules.

Abstract
A major barrier to the creation of engineered organs is the limited diffusion of oxygen through biological tissues. Advances in biofabrication bring us increasingly closer to complex vascular networks capable of supplying oxygen to large cellularized scaffolds. However, technologies for monitoring oxygen levels in engineered tissues do not accommodate imaging depths of more than a few dozen micrometers. Here, we report the creation of fluorescent porphyrin-hydrogel microparticles that can be used at depths of 2 mm into artificial tissues. By combining an oxygen-responsive porphyrin dye with a reference dye, the microparticles generate a ratiometric signal that is photostable, unaffected by attenuation from biological material, and responsive to physiological change in oxygen concentration. These microparticles can measure long-distance oxygen gradients within 3D, cellularized constructs and accurately report cellular oxygen consumption rates. Furthermore, they are compatible with a number of hydrogel polymerization chemistries and cell types, including primary human cells. We believe this technology will significantly advance efforts to visualize oxygen gradients in cellularized constructs and inform efforts to tissue engineer solid organs.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), consisting of photosensitizer, light, and oxygen has been used for the treatment of various diseases including cancers, microbial infections and skin disorders. In this study, we examined the anti-inflammatory effect of chlorin e6-mediated PDT in P. acnes-infected HaCaT cells using photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) and halogen light. The live and heat-killed P. acnes triggered an upregulation of inflammatory molecules such as iNOS, NO, and inflammatory cytokine in HaCaT cells and mouse model. Ce6-mediated PDT notably downregulated the expression of these inflammatory molecules in vitro and in vivo. Similarly, chlorin e6-mediated PDT was capable of regulating inflammatory response in both live and heat killed S. epidermidis exposed HaCaT cells. Moreover, phosphorylation of p38, JNK, and ERK were reduced by Ce6-mediated PDT. Ce6-mediated PDT also reduced the phosphorylation of IKKα/β, IĸBα and NFκB p65 in P. acnes-stimulated HaCaT cells. In addition, the dramatic increase in the nuclear translocation of NFκB p65 observed upon stimulation with P. acnes was markedly impaired by Ce6-based PDT. This is the first suggestion that Ce6-mediated PDT suppresses P. acnes-induced inflammation through modulating NFκB and MAPKs signaling pathways.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is a minimally invasive and promising new method in cancer treatment and has attracted considerable attention in recent years. An ideal photosensitizer is a crucial element to photodynamic therapy. In the present paper, a novel porphyrin derivative, 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (5-(pyrrolidin-1-yl) pentyl) porphin (TPPP) was synthesized. Its spectroscopic and physicochemical properties, therapeutic efficacy as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy for human bladder cancer in vitro and in vivo were investigated. TPPP had strong absorption at 648nm (ε=1.75×10(4)M(-1)cm(-1)), and two fluorescence emission peaks at 652nm and 718nm. PDT with TPPP showed low dark toxicity and high phototoxicity to human bladder cancer T24 cells in vitro. In bearing T24 tumor nude mice, the growth of tumor was significantly inhibited by combining use of 5mg/kg TPPP with 100J/cm(2) (650nm, 180mW/cm(2)) laser irradiation at 3h following injection of TPPP. The antitumor effect was also confirmed with histopathological assay. The histopathological study results revealed that PDT using TPPP and 100J/cm(2) (650nm, 180mW/cm(2)) laser irradiation induced tumor cells shrunken and necrotic. These results indicate that TPPP is useful as a new photosensitizer in PDT for cancer, and deserves further investigation.
