[Cytotoxic effect of hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) plus light irradiation in vitro]. 1986

H Liang

Cytotoxic effect of HPD plus light irradiation on PTK2 and HeLa cells in vitro were studied by laser microbeam irradiation. The dynamic changes, in three different steps as observed in the cells ranged from visible damage to cell lysis, were recorded at the monocellular level. It was found that the speed of the cytotoxic process varied chiefly with the dose of light used. The cytotoxic progress of PTK2 and HeLa cells was compared and analyzed. In addition, the cytotoxic effects of three different laser wavelengths (6328A, 5145A and 4880A) plus HPD were compared. The most significant killing effect occurred at 6328A wavelength of red light.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D007834 Lasers An optical source that emits photons in a coherent beam. Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (LASER) is brought about using devices that transform light of varying frequencies into a single intense, nearly nondivergent beam of monochromatic radiation. Lasers operate in the infrared, visible, ultraviolet, or X-ray regions of the spectrum.

D006371 Helium A noble gas with the atomic symbol He, atomic number 2, and atomic weight 4.003. It is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that is not combustible and does not support combustion. It was first detected in the sun and is now obtained from natural gas. Medically it is used as a diluent for other gases, being especially useful with oxygen in the treatment of certain cases of respiratory obstruction, and as a vehicle for general anesthetics.
