The phototoxicity of hematoporphyrin derivative (Hpd) to murine bladder tumor (MBT-2) cells was studied in vitro. It was observed that selenium in the form of sodium selenite enhanced Hpd-sensitized photodamage in MBT-2 cells under conditions where selenite alone was non-toxic. Sodium selenite enhanced the fluorescence emission of Hpd and augmented the Hpd-sensitized photooxidation of tryptophan. The data suggest that sodium selenite is able to disaggregate Hpd, thereby enhancing Hpd-sensitized phototoxicity.
