Abstract

AbstractPhotodynamic diagnosis and therapy (PDD and PDT) are emerging techniques for diagnosing and treating tumors and malignant diseases. Photoproducts of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) used in PDD and PDT may be used in the diagnosis and treatment, making a detailed analysis of the photoproduct formation under various treatment and diagnosis conditions important.Spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis of photoproduct formation from PpIX dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide were performed under commonly used irradiation conditions for PDD and PDT, i.e., wavelengths of 405 and 635 nm and fluence rates of 10 and 100 mW/cm2. Irradiation resulted in the formation of hydroxyaldehyde photoproduct (photoprotoporphyrin; Ppp) and formyl photoproduct (product II; Pp II) existing in different quantities with the irradiation wavelength and fluence rate. Ppp was dominant under 635 nm irradiation of PpIX, with a fluorescence peak at 673 nm and a protonated monoisotopic peak at m/z 595.3. PpIX irradiation with 405 nm yielded more Pp II, with a fluorescence peak at 654 nm. A higher photoproduct formation was observed at a low fluence rate for irradiation with 635 nm, while irradiation with 405 nm indicated a higher photoproduct formation at a higher fluence rate.The photoproduct formation with the irradiation conditions can be exploited for dosimetry estimation and may be used as an additional photosensitizer to improve the diagnostics and treatment efficacies of PDD and PDT. Differences in environmental conditions of the present study from that of a biological environment may result in a variation in the photoproduct formation rate and may limit their clinical utilization in PDD and PDT. Thus, further investigation of photoproduct formation rates in more complex biological environments, including in vivo, is necessary. However, the results obtained in this study will serve as a basis for understanding reaction processes in such biological environments. Graphical abstract
