Significant difference in response of malignant tumor cells of individual patients to photodynamic treatment as revealed by digital holographic microscopy
JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY B-BIOLOGY(2021)
摘要
The investigation of in-vitro response of cell cultures derived from tumor material of individual patients with similar tumor localizations to photodynamic treatment is presented. Tumor types included in the research were renal cell carcinoma, melanoma and alveolar, synovial, lypo- and osteo- sarcomas. Long-term observations of treatment-induced morphological changes in cells were performed by means of digital holographic microscopy. A substantial variance in response of cells of individual patients with similar tumor types and localizations to photodynamic treatment with the same dose has been observed. These peculiarities are indicative of the demand to personalized protocols of photodynamic treatment. The elevated resistance of cells of some patients to treatment at high doses highlights potential limitations of photodynamic therapy for some patients. Digital holographic microscopy is shown to be an informative label-free noninvasive tool allowing for long-term monitoring of cell samples in vitro and providing quantitative information on necrosis rate and loss of cellular dry mass. The developed methodology can be generalized for analysis of cellular response to various therapies.
