Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was obtained from venous blood. The aggregation activity of platelets was determined by the turbidimetric method, the aggregation inducer was ADP at a final concentration of 1.25 μM. Rose bengal (RB) (Acros Organics, USA) was used as a photosensitizer (PS). PRP samples containing the PS were irradiated using ALOD-Izumrud laser (OOO “Alcom Medica”, Russia), λ = 532 nm, power density 0.05 W/cm2 , energy density of 6, 12 and 24 J/cm2 . The effect of photoactivated RB on the aggregation of circulating PLT was studied after laser irradiation of the femoral artery of the rats: 30 mW laser power, 2 mm spot diameter and 30 min exposure. RB at concentrations of 0.5 and 1 μg/ml was found to stimulate, and 5-10 μg/ml—to inhibit platelet aggregation. Photoactivation of RB weakens the stimulating effect of laser irradiation on the aggregation of platelets. Photodynamic modification of blood led to an increase in the in[1]tensity of platelet aggregation by 24% in comparison to the control group, and by 39.6% compared to the group without photoactivation of RB (p<0.01). The data obtained indicate that under the influence of RB photoactivation, the aggregation activity of platelets changes, the severity and direction of the effect depend on the RB concentration. Change in functional activity of platelets is one of the manifestations of photodynamic modification of blood.","PeriodicalId":37713,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Photonics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47063811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study involved 202 people, including 185 patients with SCSC, who were on outpatient and inpatient treatment in medical institutions of Engels and Saratov during the period from 2015 to 2019, and 17 donors. The study design included studies in three main groups. The first (intervention) group included 74 (36.6%) patients with SCSC who underwent combined treatment, including PDT at the first stage and surgical treatment at the second stage. The second group consisted of 111 (55.0%) patients with SCSC who underwent only surgical treatment. The third group consisted of 17 (8.4%) relatively healthy volunteer donors, comparable in age and sex with the patients of the main group. As a result of the study, it was found that the level of metalloproteinase-1 inhibitor (TIMP-1) in the blood serum of patients with SCSC was reduced compared with physiologically normal indicators, which led to a statistically significant increase in matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) MMPs-2, MMPs-7 and MMPs-9. Performing only surgical treatment for this pathology does not lead to a complete recovery of these indicators. However, the use of combined treatment including PDT showed a statistically significant increase in the amount of TIMP-1 before the start of surgical treatment, which naturally led to a decrease in MMPs-2, MMPs-7 and MMPs-9. Later, after excision of the tumor, the patients of this group had a complete normalization of TIMP-1, which, in turn, contributed to a decrease and then restoration of the number of MMPs-2, MMPs-7 and MMPs-9 to physiologically normal values.","PeriodicalId":37713,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Photonics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44854803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Iron oxide nanoparticles are promising in this aspect. Due to magnetic properties, they can be used as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging. Also, iron oxide nanoparticles could be coated with a photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy and their laser or magnetic heating can be used for phototherapy. Local enhancement of the electromagnetic field near iron oxide nanoparticles can increase the fluorescence intensity of photosensitizers and the efficiency of singlet oxygen generation. This paper presents the results of a study of iron oxide nanoparticles focused on the photophysical aspects of the formation of “hot spots” under laser irradiation. The photoinduced effects of iron oxide nanoparticles observed in in vitro experiments lead to the rupture of lysosomes. Theoretical modeling showed that the heating of iron oxide nanoparticles with a radius of 35 nm under the action of laser radiation is about 89°C and 19°C for wavelengths of 458 and 561 nm, respectively. Local field enhancement occurs in pairs of nanoparticles of various sizes and strongly depends on the distance between them. The maximum gain is achieved at small distances between nanoparticles. For a dimer of nanoparticles with radii of 10 and 35 nm at a distance of 1 nm, an enhancement factor of two orders of magnitude was obtained. The investigated phenomenon of «hot spots» is in demand for precision therapy, because the photo-induced processes occur at small distances between nanoparticles, in areas of their high accumulation.","PeriodicalId":37713,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Photonics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42704876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Side effects following surgery or radiation treatment can lead to structural deformities, scarring, hyperpigmentation, systemic side effects, and destruction of normal tissue. In addition, the use of traditional methods of treatment can cause multidrug resistance, which will lead to ineffective treatment and the development of a relapse of the disease. To avoid toxicity and reduce side effects, alternative treatment strategies have been proposed. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising organ-preserving highly selective method for treating cervical neoplasia, which includes two stages: the introduction of a photosensitizer and local exposure to directed light radiation. A number of studies have demonstrated the high clinical efficacy of this method in the treatment of patients with cervical neoplasia and carriage of human papillomavirus infection without adverse consequences for fertility. The use of PDT contributes to the successful outcome of the treatment of pathological foci on the mucous membrane of the cervix, the effectiveness and safety of the method is ensured by the selective effect on tissues. In the course of treatment, normal surrounding tissues are not damaged, there is no gross scarring and stenosis of the cervical canal, thereby PDT allows maintaining the normal anatomical and functional characteristics of the cervix.","PeriodicalId":37713,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Photonics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41367137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study analyzes the dynamics of the development of the clinical application and scientific developments of PD and PDT over the past decade in Russia in terms of the volume of public procurement of photosensitizers, as well as the activity of research work in the field of PD and PDT, the number of candidate and doctoral dissertations theses on this topic and the number of scientific publications in the RSCI. 688 contracts for the supply of photosensitizers for clinical use were analyzed. The analysis showed a stable annual growth in the volume of public procurement of photosensitizers, an increase in the number of subjects of the Russian Federation and clinical centers that purchase photosensitizers through the portal www.zakupki.gov.ru. From 2014 to 2020, the total volume of public procurement of all photosensitizers increased by 8 times (from 36.42 million rubles (3.58 thousand packages) to 307.37 million rubles (18.99 thousand packages)). The annual increase in the volume of public procurement in numerical terms over the previous 6 years ranged from 9.4% to 63.2% in different years. The main share of state purchases of photosensitizers falls on Moscow and St. Petersburg, h. However, in recent years there has been a noticeable trend towards an increase in sales of photosensitizers in the regions. Thus, in recent years, the share of purchases of photosensitizers in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation with a population of less than 1 million people has significantly increased (from 2.9% of the total number of purchases in 2014 to 25.3% in 2020).

The main limitation of this method is the insufficient penetration into the tissue of laser radiation used to activate photosensitizer molecules, which makes it difficult to carry out therapy in the treatment of large or deep-seated tumors. In this regard, there is a great interest in the development of new strategies for photodynamic therapy using infrared radiation for excitation, the wavelengths of which fall into the “transparency window” of biological tissues. In this work, it was proposed to use upconversion NaGdF4 :Yb:Er nanoparticles (UCNP), which absorb infrared excitation and serve as a donor that transfers energy to the photosensitizer. Photosens and phthalosens were chosen as the most promising photosensitizers for the study. The aim of this work was to study the energy transfer processes between upconversion nanoparticles doped with rare-earth ions and photosensitizer molecules. in order to excite photosensitizers with IR radiation and carry out photodynamic therapy of deep-seated neoplasms. Using spectroscopic and time-resolved methods, it has been demonstrated that there is an efficient energy transfer between upconversion particles and photosensitizers phthalosens and photosens. The calculated efficiency of energy transfer by the Foerster mechanism was 41% for the UCNP + photosens system and 69% for the UCNP + phthalosens system. It has been experimentally and theoretically proved that there is a binding of photosensitizer molecules with UCNP by means of surfactants, leading to a reduction in the distance between them, due to which effective nonradiative energy transfer is realized. The generation of singlet oxygen by the phthalosens photosensitizer upon excitation by means of energy transfer from UCNP, excited at 980 nm wavelength of, has been demonstrated.","PeriodicalId":37713,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Photonics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42438327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The standard for the treatment of malignant neoplasms (MNO) of the oral mucosa is the surgical method, chemotherapy and / or radiation therapy. With the introduction of modern protocols and the improvement of current treatment methods, the increase in survival is insignificant due to the development of local and distant relapses, the appearance of simultaneous tumors of the oral cavity. Cosmetic and functional results in patients who have undergone complex treatment for oral cancer are often unsatisfactory. There is an obvious need to develop new approaches to treating patients with cancer of the oral mucosa. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has similar properties. With the development of endoscopic and fiber-optic equipment, the fields of PDT application have significantly expanded. Foci in the oral cavity and oropharynx became available for PDT. The early stages of oral mucosal cancer are optimal for PDT because large surface defects can be treated with minimal complications. Preservation of subepithelial and collagen structures, which is typical for PDT, promotes healing without the formation of scar processes, thereby achieving an ideal cosmetic and functional effect. The use of PDT in the treatment of oral cavity cancer is not limited only to the initial stages in an independent version. It is possible to use PDT in combination with surgical and radiation treatment. In case of massive tumor processes, PDT is used for palliative purposes.
