Photodynamic Therapy against Colorectal Cancer Using Porphin-Loaded Arene Ruthenium Cages.
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world, with an ongoing rising incidence. Despite secure advancements in CRC treatments, challenges such as side effects and therapy resistance remain to be addressed. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) emerges as a promising modality, clinically used in treating different diseases, including cancer. Among the main challenges with current photosensitizers (PS), hydrophobicity and low selective uptake by the tumor remain prominent. Thus, developing an optimal design for PS to improve their solubility and enhance their selective accumulation in cancer cells is crucial for enhancing the efficacy of PDT. Targeted photoactivation triggers the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which promote oxidative stress within cancer cells and ultimately lead to their death. Ruthenium (Ru)-based compounds, known for their selective toxicity towards cancer cells, hold potential as anticancer agents. In this study, we investigated the effect of two distinct arene-Ru assemblies, which lodge porphin PS in their inner cavity, and tested them as PDT agents on the HCT116 and HT-29 human CRC cell lines. The cellular internalization of the porphin-loaded assemblies was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy. Additionally, significant photocytotoxicity was observed in both cell lines after photoactivation of the porphin in the cage systems, inducing apoptosis through caspase activation and cell cycle progression disruptions. These findings suggest that arene-Ru assemblies lodging porphin PS are potent candidates for PDT of CRC.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Molecular Sciences (ISSN 1422-0067) provides an advanced forum for chemistry, molecular physics (chemical physics and physical chemistry) and molecular biology. It publishes research articles, reviews, communications and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their theoretical and experimental results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers or the number of electronics supplementary files. For articles with computational results, the full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material (including animated pictures, videos, interactive Excel sheets, software executables and others).
