Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS:
Tumor cells of different origin were cultured, treated with LED-light and Alectinib. Results were gained by flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry and western blotting. Apoptosis was determined by flow cytometric analysis of Annexin V-FITC stained cells. In addition, cells were counterstained with propidium iodide to distinguish early apoptotic cells and late apoptotic/necrotic cells. RESULTS: Here, we report that photodynamic treatment of tumor cell lines of different origin in combination with Alectinib increased protoporphyrin-IX specific fluorescence and concomitantly cell death. CONCLUSIONS:
