The attractive and repulsive force regions are formed due to effectively initiated dielectrophoretic force, where these regions are the bright and dark area among a projected image on a liquid reservoir depending on the polarization states. In present study, the attractive force draw in live cells, saccharomyces cerevisiae, and live cells can be manipulated inside reservoir without any microchannel confinement in a programmable manner. The relation between distance from the boundary and average velocity is also discussed.","PeriodicalId":346624,"journal":{"name":"The Second Asian and Pacific Rim Symposium on Biophotonics, 2004.

{"title":"Hypoxia-inducible factor-1/spl alpha/ (HIF-1/spl alpha/) and photodynamic therapy","authors":"Lin-Hung Wei, C. Chou, J. Su","doi":"10.1109/APBP.2004.1412292","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/APBP.2004.1412292","url":null,"abstract":"Summary form only given. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising treatment modality that is being tested in the clinic for use in oncology. PDT requires three elements: light, a photosensitizer and oxygen. PDT-mediated oxidative stress elicits direct tumor cell damage and microvascular injury within exposed tumor. Microvasculature damage following PDT leads to a significant decrease in blood flow as well as severe and persistent tumor tissue hypoxia. Subsequently, tissue hypoxia can induce a plethora of molecular and physiological responses, including an adaptive response associated with gene activation. A primary step in hypoxia-mediated gene activation is the formation of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1) transcription factor complex. Hypoxia induces the stabilization of the HIF-1/spl alpha/, which in turn allows for the formation of the transcriptionally active protein complex. Up to date, the HIF-1-responsive genes that can modulate the PDT response have not been well identified. In the current study, we employed 5-aminolevulinic acid as a photosensitizer, 630 nm wavelength light-emitting diode (LED) manufactured by the Industrial Technology Research Institute as a light source. The experimental results demonstrated that cancer cells are more resistant to PDT under hypoxic status. PDT can transcriptionally induce or enhance HIF-1/spl alpha/ expression in different cervical cancer cell lines (SiHa, HeLa, Caski, C33A, HT-3), immortalized cervical epithelium cell line 183 A, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Pharmacological and genetic inhibition assays revealed that PI3K/Akt signaling critically involves in the activation of HIF-1/spl alpha/ by PDT in SiHa cells. When SiHa cells was treated with antisense HIF-1/spl alpha/ (20/spl mu/M), PDT activated HIF-1/spl alpha/ protein expression was markedly inhibited, and subsequently sensitized SiHa cells to PDT. Currently, pharmaceutical companies actively develop novel compounds targeting HIF-1/spl alpha/ as a promising cancer therapy. The results of this study will, therefore, provide important information to improve the therapeutic efficacy of PDT and have great clinical applicable potential.","PeriodicalId":346624,"journal":{"name":"The Second Asian and Pacific Rim Symposium on Biophotonics, 2004.

From a clinical point of view, PDT is a way of producing localised tissue destruction with light. One of the most striking aspects of PDT induced tissue destruction is that connective tissues like collagen and elastin are largely unaffected. PDT offers many challenges and opportunities for existing and new optical technologies, including lasers. The basic principle can be applied to disease processes in a wide range of organs. The secret to making the most of this evolving new therapeutic modality is to understand the biology of what PDT can do to living tissue, identify when that is relevant to the treatment of human disease and then ensure that adequate drug and light doses are delivered to all relevant sites.","PeriodicalId":346624,"journal":{"name":"The Second Asian and Pacific Rim Symposium on Biophotonics, 2004.
