Popis: | We have investigated the synergistic effect of nitric oxide and singlet oxygen originating from stimulated ruthenium complexes and their photodynamic action against a melanoma cancer cell line. In aqueous solution, the photosensitizer [Ru(NH3)5pz]2+(I; pz = pyrazine) and the nitrosylruthenium complex trans-[RuCl([15]aneN4)NO]2+(II; [15]aneN4= 1,4,8,12-tetrazacyclopentadecane) can produce singlet oxygen and nitric oxide, respectively. The phototoxicity of complex I does not correlate with the singlet oxygen quantum yields unless it is mediated by nitric oxide release from complex II. This effect is around 70 and 50 % higher than the effect prompted by compounds I and II, respectively, in isolation in the presence of light. It was found that the number of hypodiploid cells in the melanoma cancer cells increased, which indicates that a mixture of compounds I and II induces apoptosis of tumorigenic cell lines. Both singlet oxygen and nitric oxide produced by the ruthenium complexes enhance the photodynamic efficacy in melanoma cancer cells. Fil: Ramos, Loyanne C. B..
