Influence of a haematoporphyrin derivative on the protoporphyrin IX synthesis and photodynamic effect after 5-aminolaevulinic acid sensitization in human colon carcinoma cells.

Haematoporphyrin derivatives (HPDs) are potent sensitizers in photodynamic therapy (PDT), associated with prolonged skin photosensitivity. 5-Aminolaevulinic acid (5-ALA), a natural precusor of haem, is converted intracellularly into the photosensitive agent protoporphyrin IX (PPIX), causing direct c...
