Photodynamic therapy (PDT) effectively induces tumor cell apoptosis, but the tumor selectivity and photosensitivity of common photosensitizers, such as aspartyl chlorin (NPe6), are not sufficient. Cancer cells phagocytose glucose 3 to 20 times more efficiently than normal cells; therefore, we examined whether glycoconjugation improves photosensitizer tumor-localizability. HaCaT cells were incubated with H2TFPC (unconjugated chlorin), H2TFPC-SGlc (glycoconjugated chlorin), or NPe6, followed by irradiation with 633 nm LED light (16 J.cm-2). PDT with 1 μM H2TFPC-SGlc for 24 h induced significantly more apoptosis (annexinV+cells: 74.5%) than PDT with either H2TFPC (2.9%) or NPe6 (0.3%). Based on the IC50, PDT with H2TFPC-SGlc induced tumor cell death more efficiently than NPe6 or H2TFPC in all cell lines examined. The addition of sodium azide, a singlet oxygen quencher, during irradiation significantly suppressed PDT-induced apoptosis in COLO679 cells (-0.4 ± 0.3% → 119 ± 44%), whereas coincubation with deuterium oxide, a singlet oxygen enhancer, enhanced PDT (72 ± 19 → 27 ± 5%). Confocal microscopy revealed that H2TFPC-SGlc accumulated in lysosomes and Golgi bodies, but not in mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum. In melanoma-bearing mice, intratumoral injection of H2TFPC-SGlc (10-8mol or 10-9mol), followed 4 h later by irradiation with 633 nm LED light (150 J.cm-2) controlled tumor growth for 13 consecutive days (10-8mol). Thus, PDT with H2TFPC-SGlc effectively induces apoptosis in tumor cellsviasinglet oxygen induction.
