Characterization of Photofrin photobleaching for singlet oxygen dose estimation during photodynamic therapy of MLL cells in vitro

Dysart, Jonathan S, Patterson, Michael S·2005·Physics in Medicine and Biology

Abstract

A singlet oxygen dose model is developed for PDT with Photofrin. The model is based on photosensitizer photobleaching kinetics, and incorporates both singlet oxygen and non-singlet oxygen mediated bleaching mechanisms. To test our model, in vitro experiments were performed in which MatLyLu (MLL) cells were incubated in Photofrin and then irradiated with 532 nm light. Photofrin fluorescence was monitored during treatment and, at selected fluence levels, cell viability was determined using a colony formation assay. Cell survival correlated well to calculated singlet oxygen dose, independent of initial Photofrin concentration or oxygenation. About 2 x 10(8) molecules of singlet oxygen per cell were required to reduce the surviving fraction by 1/e. Analysis of the photobleaching kinetics suggests that the lifetime of singlet oxygen in cells is 0.048 +/- 0.005 micros. The generation of fluorescent photoproducts was not a result of singlet oxygen reactions exclusively, and therefore did not yield additional information to aid in quantifying singlet oxygen dose.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
