ABSTRACT
AIM:
Metronomic photodynamic therapy (mPDT) with a longer irradiation time and lower energy compared with acute (or classic) photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a more effective treatment than aPDT for tumor cells, especially colorectal cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms of the superior effects of mPDT are unknown.METHODS:
we used SWATH-MS (sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra) to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) specific to aPDT (conventional fluence rate, 20â¯mW/cm2, 4â¯min 10â¯s), mPDT (metronomic fluence rate, 0.4â¯mW/cm2, 3.5â¯h), and control groups of SW837 cells. The photosensitizer used in both PDT methods was aminolevulinic acid which were incubated with the cells before irradiation.RESULTS:
A total of 6805 proteins were identified in the three groups of SW837 cells. aPDT induced 333 DEPs and mPDT induced 1716 DEPs compared with the control. We identified 185 common DEPs in the two PDT groups, 148 different DEPs in the aPDT group, and 1531 different DEPs in the mPDT group. Most of the 185 common DEPs were involved in the extracellular component, participated in the processes of vesicle transport and secretion, binding, and hydrolase/catalytic activity. They were also involved in PI3K-Akt, cGMP-PKG, RAS, and aAMP signaling pathways. In addition, the 1531 different DEPs in the mPDT group participated in similar processes and molecular functions, but in a more complex manner than those in the aPDT group.CONCLUSION:
our proteome data suggest that mPDT has a complex tumor destruction mechanism with more involved proteins compared with aPDT, which may explain the better tumor killing effect of mPDT.Key words
