All- <i>trans</i> retinoic acid enhances the anti-tumour effects of fimaporfin-based photodynamic therapy
2022-04-29
Abstract excerpt
The vitamin A metabolite all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA; tretinoin) has anticancer potential. However, lack of clinical success has prevented its approval for solid tumours. Herein, we propose combining short-term low-dose ATRA preconditioning with fimaporfin-based photodynamic therapy (ATRA+PDT) for the improved treatment of solid cancers. Compared to monotherapies, ATRA+PDT induced synergistic cytotoxic responses...
