Successful photodynamic therapy (PDT) requires high production of radical ions and singlet oxygen to kill target cells. However, PDT also induces angiogenesis through production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which promotes cell regrowth and vascularization. In this study, we evaluated the importance of oxygen in PDT by measuring oxygen consumption, photosensitizer bleaching, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the culture medium, and VEGF secretion either during or after PDT treatment using mouse Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) cells.
