Abstract
The azide anion is often used as a physical quencher of singlet oxygen, the important active intermediate in photosensitized oxidation. An observed effect of azide on the rate of a reaction is considered an indication to the involvement of singlet oxygen. In most biological photosensitizations, the light-absorbing sensitizer is located in a membrane or in an intracellular organelle, whereas azide is water soluble. The quenching it causes relies on a physical encounter with singlet oxygen during the latter's short lifetime. This can happen either if azide penetrates into the membrane's lipid phase or if singlet oxygen is intercepted when diffusing in the aqueous phase. We demonstrate in this article the difference, in liposomes' suspension, between the effect of azide when using a water-soluble and membrane-bound chemical targets of singlet oxygen, whereas this difference does not exist when micelles are used. We explain the difference on the population of sensitizer and target in the liposome vs micelle. We also show the effect that exists on azide quenching of singlet oxygen by electrically charged lipids in liposomes. This is a result of the accumulation or dilution of azide in the debye layer near the membranes' surface, due to the surface Gouy-Chapman potential.

Abstract
Cellular antioxidant enzymes protect against damage caused by exposure to endogenous or exogenous prooxidants. Singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) is a reactive form of oxygen that can be produced in vivo either in normal and pathophysiologic conditions or by photosensitizing chemicals, as during photodynamic treatment. We hypothesized that photodynamically generated (1)O(2) would decrease the enzymatic activities of cellular antioxidants. To test this hypothesis, we treated cultured mouse epidermal keratinocytes with the photosensitizer Photofrin plus visible light to produce (1)O(2), and then measured CuZnSOD, MnSOD, and catalase activities with both ingel and spectrophotometric enzyme activity assays. Our results demonstrated that the enzymatic activities of cellular CuZnSOD, MnSOD, and catalase were significantly decreased after keratinocytes were treated with Photofrin plus visible light. By contrast, the enzymatic activities of cellular CuZnSOD, MnSOD, and catalase were unaffected in control cells treated with Photofrin only or visible light only. Despite the decreased levels of enzymatic activities, the protein levels of all three primary antioxidant enzymes remained constant after photodynamic treatment, as determined by Western blotting. L-Histidine, a (1)O(2) quencher, protected against the inactivation of cellular CuZnSOD, MnSOD, and catalase enzymes induced by photodynamically generated (1)O(2). The conclusion from these experiments is that the primary cellular antioxidant enzymes CuZnSOD, MnSOD, and catalase can be inactivated by photodynamically generated (1)O(2) in nucleated mammalian cells. These findings may be useful in the future development of antineoplastic adjuvant therapies that use photodynamic generation of (1)O(2) to inactivate antioxidant defenses with a goal of sensitizing tumor cells to prooxidant-generating drugs.

Abstract
We studied the photosensitised killing of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells using two photosensitisers that localise in lysosomes. The ARPE-19 cell line was photosensitised using either acridine orange or cis-di(4-sulfonatophenyl)diphenylporphine. We then measured the amount of photoprotection provided to RPE cells by five synthetic carotenoid derivatives and by lutein. The synthetic carotenoid derivatives studied were the Girard's reagent P derivative (GRP) of retinal (GRP-retinal), the GRP derivative of beta-apo-8'-carotenal (GRP-carotenal), the Girard's reagent T derivative of beta-apo-8'-carotenal (GRT-carotenal), the GRP derivative of canthaxanthin ((GRP)2-canthaxanthin) and the dansyl hydrazine derivative of beta-apo-8'-carotenal (dansyl-carotenal). We found that GRP-carotenal, GRT-carotenal (GRP)2-canthaxanthin and dansyl-carotenal were effective photoprotectors. All of these carotenoids had large singlet-oxygen quenching constants and had chemical structures designed to localise either in mitochondria or in lysosomes. In contrast, lutein and GRP-retinal were not effective photoprotectors. The failure of GRP-retinal to provide significant photoprotection may have been due to its relatively low singlet-oxygen quenching constant. Lutein is a potent singlet-oxygen quencher, but may not have provided significant photoprotection in this model because the lutein may have had a different subcellular distribution than the photosensitisers used.

Abstract
The pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (ELF) contains substrates, e.g., ascorbic acid (AH2), uric acid (UA), glutathione (GSH), proteins, and unsaturated lipids, which undergo facile reaction with inhaled ozone (O3). Reactions near the ELF gas/liquid interface likely provide the driving force for O3 absorption ("reactive absorption") and constrain O3 diffusion to the underlying epithelium. To investigate the potential mechanisms wherein O3/ELF interactions may induce cellular damage, we utilized a red cell membrane (RCM) model intermittently covered by an aqueous film to mimic the lung surface compartmentation, and evaluated exposure-mediated loss of acetylcholinesterase activity (AChE) and TBARS accumulation. In the absence of aqueous reactants, O3 exposure induced no detectable changes in AChE or TBARS. AH2 and GSH preferentially induced oxidative damage in a dose-dependent fashion. AH2-mediated RCM oxidation was not inhibited by superoxide dismutase, catalase, mannitol, or Fe chelators. O3 reaction with UA, Trolox, or albumin produced no RCM oxidation but oxidation occurred when AH2 was combined with UA or albumin. Rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) also induced RCM oxidation. However, in vivo O3 exposure dampened the extent of BALF-mediated RCM oxidation. Although we cannot completely rule out O3 diffusion to the RCM, product(s) derived from O3 + AH2/GSH reactions (possibly O3*- or 1O2) likely initiated RCM oxidation and may suggest that in vivo, such secondary species account for O3 permeation through the ELF leading to cellular perturbations.

Abstract
1 Sulphonated aluminium phthalocyanine (SALPC) photodynamic action induces amylase secretion and permanent calcium oscillation in rat pancreatic acinar cells, because of the activation of phospholipase C or signalling proteins upstream. The aim of the present study was to investigate the involvement of muscarinic acetylcholine and cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors. 2 Muscarinic receptor antagonist atropine (10 micro M) blocked amylase secretion induced by bethanechol (100 micro M), and CCK(1) receptor antagonist (S)-N-[1-(2-fluorophenyl)-3,4,6,7-tetrahydor-4-oxo-pyrrolo-[3,2,1-jk][1,4] benzodiazepine-3yl]-1H-indole-2-carboxamide (FK480) (1 micro M) blocked amylase secretion induced by CCK (100 pM). 3 Amylase secretion induced by SALPC photodynamic action was not inhibited when atropine and FK480 were present during photodynamic action. However, addition of FK480 1 micro M after initiation of photodynamic action inhibited photodynamic amylase secretion. Bethanechol (10, 100 micro M) added after photodynamic action resulted in a full secretory response. 4 Atropine (10 nM) abolished calcium oscillation induced by bethanechol (5 micro M), and FK480 (10 nM) blocked calcium oscillation induced by CCK (10 pM). 5 Atropine up to 10 micro M was without effect on Ca(2+) oscillation triggered by photodynamic action, but these oscillations were abolished by FK480 (10 nM). FK480 (10 nM) had no effect on calcium oscillations induced by bethanechol (5 micro M). Bethanechol 5 micro M, added after FK480 blockade of photodynamic calcium oscillation, still triggered regular calcium oscillation. 6 It is concluded that SALPC photodynamic action selectively and permanently activates CCK receptor in rat pancreatic acini. Such permanent and selective modulation of signalling proteins has important implications for the treatment of pancreatitis, prion diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
A cationic carotenoid derivative (GRP-carotenal) was synthesized by the reaction of Girard's reagent P and beta-apo-8'-carotenal. The singlet-oxygen quenching constants for GRP-carotenal were 1.3 +/- 0.1 x 10(10) and 1.0 +/- 0.1 x 10(10) M-1 s-1 in acetonitrile and in detergent micelles, respectively. Photosensitized damage to K562 leukemia cells from cis-di(4-sulfonatophenyl)diphenylporphine, hypericin and protoporphyrin IX was inhibited by GRP-carotenal under conditions where beta-apo-8'-carotenal, beta-carotene and crocetin were ineffective. The unique cytoprotective properties of GRP-carotenal, relative to the other carotenoids studied, could not be explained by the differences in the cell content of the various carotenoids or by the changes in the cell content of the photosensitizers used. Photosensitizer fluorescence from labeled K562 cells was reduced by GRP-carotenal but not by the other carotenoids studied. The novel photoprotective properties of GRP-carotenal may be due to its subcellular distribution. In photosensitizer-containing detergent micelles, novel properties of GRP-carotenal were not apparent. None of the carotenoids studied reduced photosensitizer fluorescence or singlet-oxygen generation. Singlet-oxygen quenching by GRP-carotenal and by beta-apo-8'-carotenal were roughly the same. Crocetin has a singlet-oxygen quenching constant that is about a factor of five lower. Singlet-oxygen quenching by beta-carotene was limited by its aggregation.

Abstract
In isolated rat hepatocytes, noradrenaline (NA) 50 nM induced intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](c)) increase as (i) oscillations with each down-stroke of the spike reaching baseline, (ii) phasic increase with gradual decay, and (iii) phasic increase transforming into oscillations. At 25 nM and 50 nM, NA predominantly induced oscillatory increases; at 100 nM and 1 microM, phasic increases were predominant. Photodynamic action (30 s) with photosensitizer sulphonated aluminium phthalocyanine (SALPC, 5 microM) induced [Ca(2+)](c) increase as (i) no change, (ii) a single spike, or (iii) phasic increase. [Ca(2+)](c) oscillations induced by NA 50 nM were obliterated by photodynamic action (30 s), but when NA 200 nM, which normally induced plateau increases, was added to the now quiescent cells, [Ca(2+)](c) oscillations reemerged. These data indicate that photodynamic action could efficiently desensitize adrenergic receptors in hepatocytes. Photodynamic action may do so by crosslinking neighboring receptors or neighboring transmembrane domains of the same receptor.

Abstract
The spectroscopy and photophysics of several hypericin and helianthrone derivatives were studied in methanol and when bound to liposomes. The singlet oxygen quantum yields (phi(delta)) were measured indirectly relative to Rose Bengal and hematoporphyrin IX, employing 9,10-dimethylanthracene as a singlet oxygen trap. Hypericin was found to have a phi(delta) of 0.39+/-0.01 in methanol, and 0.35+/-0.05 in lecithin vesicles, in agreement with literature values. A heavy atom effect was evident upon bromination, resulting in phi(delta) for tetrabromohypericin of 0.72+/-0.02, presumably due to enhanced intersystem crossing. Elimination of the anionic hydroxyls by methylation also enhanced phi(delta) to 0.81+/-0.01. Conversely, addition of anionic sulfate groups drastically reduced phi(delta) resulting in phi(delta)'s of 0.12+/-0.01, 0.052+/-0.003 and 0.40+/-0.01 for hypericin disulfonate, hypericin tetrasulfonate and hexamethyl hypericin tetrasulfonate, respectively. The non-sulfonated helianthrones exhibited low phi(delta)'s in solution. The liposome binding constants, Kb, were measured using a spectroscopic assay. Except for hexamethyl hypericin, all non-sulfonated compounds bound well with Kb's ranging from 15.5+/-0.1 to 48.7+/-3.9 (mg/ml)(-1). None of the tetrasulfonated compounds bound, however the hypericin disulfonate had a Kb of 4.1+/-0.2 (mg/ml)(-1). The phi(delta)'s of the compounds capable of binding were measured and, in the case of the hypericin derivatives, were found not to vary dramatically from those in the free state. Liposome-bound helianthrone and dimethyl tetrahydroxy helianthrone both exhibited high phi(delta)'s, i.e. >0.5. The variations in binding constant and sensitization efficiencies are explained in conjunction with the molecular structure. The relevance of the above data to photodynamic therapy is briefly discussed.

Abstract
Several cyanine dyes were found to protect K562 leukemia cells against toxicity mediated by cis-di(4-sulfonatophenyl)diphenylporphine (TPPS2) and light. Most cyanine dyes derived from dimethylindole were better photoprotectors than cyanine dyes with other structures. This correlated with the fact that cyanine dyes derived from dimethylindole were predominately monomeric at millimolar concentrations within K562 cells, while other cyanine dyes formed aggregates. For cyanine dyes that are derived from dimethylindole and have absorption band wavelengths greater than 700 nm, fluorescence-energy transfer from TPPS2 to the cyanine dye was the most important mechanism for photoprotection. There was no spectroscopic evidence for complex formation between the cyanine dyes and TPPS2. The dimethylindole derivative, 1,1',3,3,3',3'-hexamethylindodicarbocyanine, was an excellent photoprotector, but a poor quencher of TPPS2 fluorescence and a relatively poor singlet-oxygen quencher. This cyanine dye may act by quenching excited triplet TPPS2. Singlet-oxygen quenching may contribute to the photoprotection provided by cyanine dyes not derived from dimethylindole. Differences in the subcellular distribution of the various cyanine dyes studied may have contributed to the different apparent mechanisms of photoprotection.

Abstract
The cyanine dye 1,1',3,3,3',3'-hexamethylindodicarbocyanine iodide (HIDC) protects K562 leukemia cells from photodynamic membrane damage caused by cis-di(4-sulfonatophenyl)diphenylporphine (TPPS2) and 420 nm light. This wavelength of light is chosen because it is absorbed by TPPS2, but not by HIDC. The photodynamic system studied may be useful as a model for antineoplastic therapy. A subline of K562 leukemia (K562/DOX), expressing the multidrug-resistance (MDR) phenotype, is found to accumulate smaller amounts of HIDC than the parent cell line and thus has less photoprotection. In the absence of added HIDC, the K562/DOX cell line is more resistant to photodynamic cytotoxicity than the K562 cell line. The resistance of the K562/DOX cell line is not due to a smaller accumulation of TPPS2 than the K562 cell line. However, when both cell lines are incubated with HIDC and TPPS2, and then exposed to light, the K562/DOX cell line becomes more sensitive to photodynamic cell damage than the K562 cell line. The combination of a photosensitizer with a cationic or lysomorphotropic photoprotector represents a novel strategy for the eradication of malignant cells expressing the MDR phenotype.
