Photodecomposition, photomutagenicity and photocytotoxicity of retinyl palmitate under He–Ne laser photoirradiation and its effects on photodynamic therapy of cancer cells in vitro

Highlights • Retinyl palmitate (RP) is a principal storage form of vitamin A. • No photodecomposition of RP alone under irradiation of He–Ne laser. • no mutagenicity under laser irradiation in presence or absence of HpD. • RP alone (1–100 μM) has cytotoxicity on HeLa cells. • Timing of adding RP bef...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Retinyl palmitate (RP) is a principal storage form of vitamin A. • No photodecomposition of RP alone under irradiation of He–Ne laser. • no mutagenicity under laser irradiation in presence or absence of HpD. • RP alone (1–100 μM) has cytotoxicity on HeLa cells. • Timing of adding RP before PDT is important since 24 h incubation enhances PDT.
