With limited treatment options, intraperitoneal spread of ovarian cancer is a common problem leading to high morbidity. Intraperitoneal photodynamic therapy combined with debulking surgery to treat residual disease is an alternative choice for clinicians. Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) is a
Ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) is a major component of paints, lacquers, inks, and automobile brake fluids. As a result, exposures to humans are inevitable. We therefore, investigated in this study, its effect on testicular cells in a time-course manner in male Wistar rats. Animals were
OBJECTIVE
To study the cytotoxicity induced by haematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME)-mediated sonodynamic therapy (SDT) on C6 glioma cells.
METHODS
The potent photosensitizer HMME was used as the sensitizer. Rat C6 glioma cells were incubated with HMME (10 microg/mL) in the dark for 2 h and then
Previous studies have shown that administration of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGM) to the rat results in testicular damage with the spermatocyte being the primary cellular site for toxicity. An ultrastructural study has now been carried out to characterize the early subcellular changes
A quantitative study has been carried out to characterize the stage susceptibility of the spermatocyte to ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGM) toxicity. EGM was administered as a single oral dose of 250 mg/kg body wt and rats were examined at time periods after dosing. The number of spermatocytes
Cadmium (Cd), boric acid (BA) and ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) were evaluated for reproductive and developmental toxicity in Xenopus laevis. Eight reproductively mature adult male and eight superovulated female Xenopus laevis were exposed to at least five separate sublethal concentrations
The role of cytotoxicity in digital maldevelopment in CD-1 mouse embryos was examined following dosage with ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) on gestation day (gd) 11. Patterns of cell necrosis in the forelimb buds of embryos collected from dams given EGME orally at doses of 100, 250 or 350
Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) is a novel and promising porphyrin-related photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy (PDT). HMME-PDT-induced cell death and its mechanisms were investigated in HeLa cells. We demonstrated that HMME-PDT could induce cell death through both necrosis and
To clarify the molecular mechanism of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME)-induced testicular toxicity, the potential for EGME-related changes in transcript levels of genes including spermatocyte-specific genes was evaluated in the testis of rats given single dosing of EGME at 200, 600, or 2000
OBJECTIVE
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a new treatment choice for ovarian carcinoma. Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) is a novel photosensitive reagent developed in China. This study was to investigate the photodynamic effect of HMME-based PDT on human epithelial ovarian cancer cell line
OBJECTIVE
The present study aims to investigate the possible mechanisms of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) enhancing the cytotoxicity of ultrasound in osteosarcoma cells.
METHODS
Osteosarcoma cell line UMR-106 was treated by HMME and ultrasound radiation, with the HMME concentration kept at
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been shown to significantly inhibit fibroblast activity. However, the effect of PDT mediated by the photosensitizer hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) on keloids is not known well. The aim of our study was to examine the efficacy of HMME-PDT in cellular and animal
Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) has been effectively used to treat solid tumors of some types. However, its application in nasopharyngeal carcinoma has not been studied yet. In this paper, the detailed sonodynamic effects of HMME-SDT (sonodynamic therapy) on CNE-2 cells including cell growth
OBJECTIVE
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a new method for treating cancer by inducing cell necrosis and/or apoptosis. However, the molecular mechanisms of cell apoptosis after SDT treatment remain unclear. In this study we investigated the apoptotic effect and mechanisms of SDT mediated by
It has been found that >90% of oral cancer patients suffer from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The 5-year survival rate of SCC is ~50%, despite the availability of different treatments. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has been developed as a novel therapy for cancer, resisting bacterial infection and
