This study was to investigate whether the apoptosis in isolate sarcoma 180 (S180) cells could be enhanced by ultrasound in the presence of protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) and also to evaluate the underlying biologic mechanism. S180 cells were exposed to ultrasound for 30 seconds' duration, at the frequency of 2.2 MHz and an acoustical power of 3 W/cm(2) with 120 microM of PPIX. Cell apoptosis was evaluated based on the morphologic changes at different incubation times after sonication. Our results showed that the apoptosis in S180 tumor cells were induced by exposure, and the rate of apoptosis rose gradually with a longer incubation time. Our results also showed that changes in Fas protein expression were correlated with the development of apoptosis. The activities of caspase-8 and -3 were apparently upregulated by apoptosis, and the death substrate (PARP) was cleaved to active segments in a time-dependent manner. These results indicated that PPIX-mediated sonodynamic effect could exert its antitumor effect by triggering apoptosis in S180 cells through a Fas-mediated signal transduction pathway.

D014465 Ultrasonics A subfield of acoustics dealing in the radio frequency range higher than acoustic SOUND waves (approximately above 20 kilohertz). Ultrasonic radiation is used therapeutically (DIATHERMY and ULTRASONIC THERAPY) to generate HEAT and to selectively destroy tissues. It is also used in diagnostics, for example, ULTRASONOGRAPHY; ECHOENCEPHALOGRAPHY; and ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY, to visually display echoes received from irradiated tissues. Ultrasonic
D016650 Fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate Fluorescent probe capable of being conjugated to tissue and proteins. It is used as a label in fluorescent antibody staining procedures as well as protein- and amino acid-binding techniques.

D017209 Apoptosis A regulated cell death mechanism characterized by distinctive morphologic changes in the nucleus and cytoplasm, including the endonucleolytic cleavage of genomic DNA, at regularly spaced, internucleosomal sites, i.e., DNA FRAGMENTATION. It is genetically programmed and serves as a balance to mitosis in regulating the size of animal tissues and in mediating pathologic processes associated with tumor growth.
