Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is already used to treat many cancers, including breast cancer, the most common cancer in women worldwide. The destruction basis of this method is on produced singlet oxygen which is extremely reactive and is a major agent of tumor cell killing. The measurement of singlet oxygen produced within PDT is essential in predicting treatment outcomes and their optimization. This study aims to determine the optimal total light dose administered during PDT by calculating the singlet oxygen to facilitate the prediction of the treatment outcome in mice bearing 4T1 cell breast cancer. Monitoring the changes in photosensitizer fluorescence signals during PDT due to photobleaching can be one of the methods of determination of singlet oxygen generation in the PDT process. This study determined the oxygen singlet as a photodynamic dose from the three-dimensional Monte Carlo method and the photobleaching empirical dose constant. The photobleaching dose constant was established non-invasively by monitoring the in vivo protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence and photobleaching during PDT. The photobleaching dose constant (β) in J/cm2 was calculated using empirical fluorescence data. The in vivo photobleaching dose constant of aminolevulinic acid was found to be 11.6 J/cm2 and based on this value, the optimal treatment light dose was estimated at 120 J/cm2 in mice bearing 4T1 breast cancer. It is concluded that information can be obtained regarding optimal treatment parameters by monitoring the in vivo PpIX fluorescence and photobleaching during PDT.

J Lasers Med Sci 2023; 14:e33.

Abstract
Introduction: This study aimed to assess the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the pushout bond strength (PBS) of resin-based and calcium silicate-based endodontic sealers. Methods: Forty single-canal teeth were assigned to four groups. After root canal preparation by the crown-down technique and smear layer removal, groups 1 and 2 served as the control group, and groups 3 and 4 underwent PDT by using a low-level diode laser as the light source and methylene blue as the photosensitizer (MB). The root canals in groups 1 and 3 were filled with AH26 sealer while the root canals in groups 2 and 4 were filled with Endoseal TCS. The samples were sectioned at 4, 8, and 12 mm from the apex tip (1mm thick slices). The PBS test was performed, and the mode of failure was determined in the coronal, middle, and apical thirds. The data were analyzed by the Kruskal-Wallis, Friedman, and Dunn tests. Results: No significant difference was noted in the PBS of resin-based and calcium silicate-based sealers in the apical, middle, or coronal thirds in the application of PDT (P>0.05). The PBS of AH26 was significantly higher than that of Endoseal TCS (P<0.05). Cohesive failure was the dominant mode of failure in the AH26 groups, while mixed failure was the dominant failure mode in the Endoseal TCS groups. Conclusion: PDT had no significant effect on the PBS of resin-based and calcium silicate-based sealers.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an established modality for cancer treatment, and reactive oxygen species explicit dosimetry (ROSED), based on direct measurements of in-vivo light fluence (rate), in-vivo photofrin concentration, and tissue oxygenation concentration, has been proved to provide the best dosimetric quantity which can be used to predict non-fractionated PDT outcome. This study performed ROSED for Photofrin-mediated PDT for mice bearing radiation-induced fibrosacorma (RIF) tumor. As demonstrated by our previous study, fractionated PDT with a 2-hour time interval can significantly improve the long-term cure rate (from 15% to 65% at 90 days), and it tends to increase as the light dose for the first light fraction gets larger. This study focused on further improving the long-term cure rate without introducing apparent toxicity using combinations of different first light fraction lengths and total light fluences. Photofrin was injected through the mouse tail vein at a concentration of 5 mg/kg. After 18~24 hours, treatment was delivered with a collimated laser beam of 1 cm diameter at 630 nm. Mice were treated using two fractions of light fluences with a 2-hour dark interval. Different dose metrics were quantified, including light fluence, PDT dose, and [ROS]rx. In addition, the total reacted [ROS]rx and treatment outcomes were evaluated and compared to identify the optimal light fraction length and total light fluence.

Photophysical characterization and in vitro anti-leishmanial effect of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-fluorophenyl) porphyrin and the metal (Zn(II), Sn(IV), Mn(III) and V(IV)) derivatives.

Abstract
In this report 5 compounds were synthesized and structural and their photophysical characterization was performed (ΦΔ and Φf). Furthermore, in this in vitro study, their biological activity against Leishmania panamensis was evaluated. The photophysical behavior of these compounds was measured and high ΦΔ and low Φf was observed. Besides, DFT quantum calculations on the electronic structures were performed. Finally, the biological activity was determined by means of the compounds capacity to inhibit the viability of parasites using the MTT assay. The inclusion of the metal ions substantially modified the photophysical and biological properties in comparison with the free metal porphyrin (1). In fact, Zn2+ porphyrin derivative (2) showed a marked decrease of Φf and increase of ΦΔ. In this sense, using TDDFT approaches, a luminescent process for Sn4+ derivative (3) was described, where emissive states involve the ML-LCT transition. So, this led to a decrease in the singlet oxygen production (0.82-0.67). Biological results showed that all compounds inhibit the viability of L. panamensis with high efficiency; the decrease in the viability was greater as the concentration of exposure increased. Finally, under light irradiation the IC50 of L. panamensis against the Zn(II)-porphyrin (2) and V(IV)-porphyrin (5) was lower than the IC50 of the Glucantime control (IC50 = 2.2 and 6.95 μM Vs IC50 = 12.7 μM, respectively). We showed that the use of porphyrin and metalloporphyrin-type photosensitizers with exceptional photophysical properties can be successful in photodynamic therapy (PDT) against L. panamensis, being the diamagnetic ion Zn2+ a candidate for the preparation of metalloporphyrins with high singlet oxygen production.
