Abstract
Photoimmunotherapy (PIT) is a novel type of molecular optical imaging-guided cancer phototherapy based on a monoclonal antibody conjugated to a photosensitizer, IR700, in combination with near-infrared (NIR) light. PIT rapidly causes target-specific cell death by inducing cell membrane damages and appears to be highly effective; however, we have previously demonstrated that tumor recurrences were eventually seen in PIT-treated mice, likely owing to inhomogeneous mAb-IR700 conjugate distribution in the tumor, thus limiting the effectiveness of PIT as a monotherapy. Here, we examined the effects of human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER2)-targeted PIT in combination with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) compared to PIT alone for HER2-expressing human gastric cancer cells. NCI-N87 cells, HER2-positive human gastric cancer cells, were used for the experiments. Trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody directed against HER2, was conjugated to IR700. To assess the short-term cytotoxicity and examine the apoptotic effects upon addition of 5-FU in vitro, we performed LIVE/DEAD and caspase-3 activity assays. Additionally, to explore the effects on long-term growth inhibition, trypan blue dye exclusion assay was performed. NCI-N87 tumor xenograft models wer...Continue Reading
