Journal ArticleDOI
Potential mechanism in sonodynamic therapy and focused ultrasound induced apoptosis in sarcoma 180 cells in vitro.
TL;DR: The findings of this study indicate that ultrasound treatment induced the activation of nuclear factor-kappaB as an early stress response in Sarcoma 180 cells and can provide a basis for explaining the synergistic effect of ultrasound and hematoporphyrin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Membrane fluidity altering and enzyme inactivating in sarcoma 180 cells post the exposure to sonoactivated hematoporphyrin in vitro
TL;DR: It is suggested that alterations in membrane modality and lipid composition played important roles in SDT-mediated inhibition of tumor growth, even inducing tumor cell death, which might be attributed to a sono-chemical activation mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro activation of mitochondria-caspase signaling pathway in sonodynamic therapy-induced apoptosis in sarcoma 180 cells.
TL;DR: It is shown that Hp significantly accelerates the process of apoptosis and enhances the cytotoxic effect of ultrasonic treatment, and Singlet oxygen may be responsible for the mitochondrial damage and the activation of the apoptotic signaling pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Damage effects of protoporphyrin IX – Sonodynamic therapy on the cytoskeletal F-actin of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells
TL;DR: Evidence of the damage effects of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) on a novel intracellular target, cytoskeletal F-actin, and the observed effect on F- actin and the subsequent bleb formation mainly due to apoptosis formation due to the treatment were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of sonodynamic effect with protoporphyrin IX on isolate hepatoma-22 cells.
TL;DR: Results indicated that the ultrasonically-induced cell killing effect could be enhanced by PpIX, and that the mitochondrial pathway might be involved in the cell damage process.
