Résumé
Hematoporphyrin derivatives (HPD)-Photodynamic therapy (PDT) in combination with cisplatin (DDP) is an effective anticancer strategy. However, whether the order of combination affects efficacy has not been studied. The human lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) A549 cells were used as the study subjects. After A549 cells were treated with a single medication (PDT/DDP) or a sequential combination (PDT + DDP / DDP + PDT), the cell viability was assayed using the cell counting kit-8 method. Hoechst staining, Annexin-V/propidium iodide (PI) double staining, western blotting, and a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were performed to examine the mechanisms behind the combined effects. A synergistic impact between HPD-PDT and DDP was found. The cell viability in the PDT+DDP group was significantly lower than in the DDP+PDT group. A significant apoptotic profile and a high apoptotic rate were seen in the PDT + DDP group. The western blot showed that the expression levels of Bcl2-associated x(Bax) and cleaved-poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) increased, and those of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and Caspase-9 decreased in the PDT + DDP group. At the same time, the RT-qPCR revealed the upregulation of Bax and PARP mRNA and the downregulation of Bcl-2 and Caspase-9 mRNA. The order of the combination therapy (PDT + DDP / DDP + PDT) was important. The HPD-PDT followed by DDP significantly inhibited LUAD cell viability, which may be related to the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Hematoporphyrin derivatives (HPD)-Photodynamic therapy (PDT) in combination with cisplatin (DDP) is an effective anticancer strategy. However, whether the order of combination affects efficacy has not been studied.
METHODS
METHODS
The human lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) A549 cells were used as the study subjects. After A549 cells were treated with a single medication (PDT/DDP) or a sequential combination (PDT + DDP / DDP + PDT), the cell viability was assayed using the cell counting kit-8 method. Hoechst staining, Annexin-V/propidium iodide (PI) double staining, western blotting, and a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were performed to examine the mechanisms behind the combined effects.
RESULTS
RESULTS
A synergistic impact between HPD-PDT and DDP was found. The cell viability in the PDT+DDP group was significantly lower than in the DDP+PDT group. A significant apoptotic profile and a high apoptotic rate were seen in the PDT + DDP group. The western blot showed that the expression levels of Bcl2-associated x(Bax) and cleaved-poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) increased, and those of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) and Caspase-9 decreased in the PDT + DDP group. At the same time, the RT-qPCR revealed the upregulation of Bax and PARP mRNA and the downregulation of Bcl-2 and Caspase-9 mRNA.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
The order of the combination therapy (PDT + DDP / DDP + PDT) was important. The HPD-PDT followed by DDP significantly inhibited LUAD cell viability, which may be related to the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.
