【Abstract】 Objective:The key factor of photodynamic therapy was photosensitizer (PS). Our research group has recently developed a novel photosensitizer with complete proprietary intellectual property rights named chlorophyllin e4, but the photodynamic characters as well as the photodynamic effect and mechanism against bladder cancer cells are still undefined. In our experiments, we aimed to investigate the preparation and the photodynamic characters of chlorophyllin e4, and clarify the photodynamic effect and phototoxicity mechanism. The information we obtained in this paper would provide a scientific foundation for chlorophyllin e4mediated photodynamic therapy against bladder tumor in clinical pratice.Methods:1.We first obtained crude chlorophyll materials extracted from traditional Chinese medicine excrementum bombycis. Then the crude chlorophyll was undergone basic hydrolysis, extraction and purification, and we got chlorophyllin e6. Chlorophyllin e6was then converted into chlorophyllin e4under certain procedures.2. The relative molecular weight of chlorophyllin e4was tested by spectrumanalyzer, the purity of the sample was detected by high pressure liquid chromatograph, and the absorption spectrum and peak was analysed by fluorescence spectrophotometer3.T24and5637bladder cancer cells were incubated to exponential phase in vitro. Afterwards the cells were cultivated with different concentrations of chlorophyllin e4and then irradiated with650nm laser light. The controls included cells treated with chlorophyllin e4but without light as well as cells exposed to laser light without chlorophyllin e4. Photocytotoxicity was monitored with MTT assay.4. Flow cytometry was used to analysis the apoptosis of T24and5637cells induced by chlorophyllin e4-based photodynamic therapy. And Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) was used to evaluate the morphological and ultra-structural changes of the cells.5. T24and5637cells were first co-incubated with chlorophyllin e4and then the Mito-Tracker Green probe was used to label mitochondrion, the confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) excited by488nm and405nm dual channels was applied to reveal chlorophyllin e4intracellular localization.6.The Apoptosis Antibody Array was used to detect the expression of apoptosis related proteins after the cells were treated, including Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-9and cytochrome c, and so that we clarify the possible mechanism of T24and5637cells apoptosis.7. We established orthotopic SD rad bladder cancer model, and preliminary observed the effect of chlorophyllin e4mediated PDT against rat bladder cancer in vivo.Results:1. The purity of chlorophyllin e4was94.28%, the relative molecular weight was553and the absorption peak were661.5nm,606.Onm,501.5nm,403.5nm.2. Chlorophyllin e4exhibited significant photocytotoxicity in both T24and5637cells. In T24cells, with4J/cm2light dose, the growth inhibition rates of2.5,5and10μg/ml chlorophyllin e4mediated photodynamic effect were20.03%、49.77%and82.43%, while with1J/cm2light dose, the growth inhibition rates were6.1%、77.38%and79.32%respectively. In5637cells, with4J/cm2light dose, the growth inhibition rates of500ng/ml、1μg/ml and2μg/ml chlorophyllin e4mediated photodynamic effect were16.61%、29.11%and85.06%, while with1J/cm2light dose, the growth inhibition rates were13.39%、57.94%and71.20%respectively. Treatment with chlorophyllin e4or laser light alone did not induce cytotoxicity.3. With10μg/ml and4J/cm2light dose, the apoptosis rate of T24cells after chlorophyllin e4mediated PDT was32.04±1.3%, the necrosis rate was7.12±0.7%; the apoptosis and necrosis rate of control group were3.77±0.3%and2.61±0.4%. With2μg/ml and4J/cm2light dose, the apoptosis rate of5637cells after chlorophyllin e4mediated PDT was45.33±1.7%, the necrosis rate was the necrosis rate was3.64±0.4%; the apoptosis and necrosis rate of control group were5.64±0.7%and1.57±0.4%. Both apoptosis rates were significantly higher than control groups.4. T24and5637cells treated by chlorophyllin e4mediated PDT, were then observed by TEM, the results showed the mitochondria were obviously swelling as vacuolar degeneration, and nuclear chromatin were dense and in lump at different size, which located mainly in the nuclear membrane. But the control groups did not showed the same change.5. The confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) revealed that, the red fluorescence stimulated by504nm laser light emitted by chlorophyllin e4and green fluorescence stimulated by488nm emitted by Mito-Tracker Green probe distributed almost the same.6. In T24cells, the expression of Bid, Bax, Bad, cytochrome, Caspase-3, Caspase-9and SMAC were rised in different degree in PDT treated group, while Bcl-2, Bcl-w and XIAP protein decreased. And in5637cells, the situation was similar, the expressions of Bid, Bax, Bad, cytochrome, Caspase-3, Caspase-9and SMAC were rised in different degree in PDT treated group, while Bcl-2, Bcl-w decreased.7. The rat bladder tumor was observed obviously sections of tissue necrosis after chlorophyllin e4mediated PDT with20J/cm2.Conclusion:1.The purity of chlorophyllin e4that we prepared was high, and the optical properties meet ideal photosensitizer requirements.2. The photodynamic effect of chlorophyllin e4combine with650nm laser light on T24and5637cells is significant, and depends on the PS concentration and laser dose.3. Chlorophyllin e4mainly locates and functions at mitochondria, and induces apoptosis, which may be one of the mechanisms against T24and5637cells.4. In PDT treated T24and5637cells, the expression of Bid、Bad、Bax were higher than Bcl-2、Bcl-w, which triggering cytochrome, SMAC and AIF were released into cytoplasm, then Caspase-9and other Caspase were activated. The cooperative action was induced cell apoptosis.5. Chlorophyllin e4mediated PDT showed clear effect against rat bladder cancer in vivo.
