Abstract

We studied the immediate response of myocardial cells by continuous observation using confocal microscope against oxidation stress by extracellular photosensitization reaction using Talaporfin sodium for tachyarrhythmia treatment application. Immediate response in order from several seconds to several minutes is required for the arrhythmia treatment since operators should judge the therapeutic effect during the tachyarrhythmia ablation procedure. To understand the immediate response of myocardial cells, we measured the intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration using fluo-4 AM during and after the extracellular photosensitization reaction. Talaporfin sodium concentration was varied 10-30 μg/ml. A red diode laser of 663 nm in wavelength was irradiated under the microscope with the radiant exposure of 40 J/cm² and irradiance of 0.29 W/cm². We observed the fluorescence image of fluo-4 AM each 400 ms during until 10 min after the photosensitization reaction. The myocardial cell beatings were stopped about 2 s after the beginning of the laser irradiation. The blebs were formed with the Ca²⁺ inflow. The intracellular Ca²⁺ was re-decreased after the bleb formation and then the cell necrosis was induced. The cell lethality 10 min after the laser irradiation was less than bleb formation ratio. The time response of the cell necrosis was shortened with the photosensitizer concentration increasing and the minimum average value was 209 s in the case of the 30 μg/ml in photosensitizer concentration and 40 J/cm² in the radiant exposure. We think this extracellular photosensitization reaction may be applicable to tachyarrhythmia treatment in terms of its immediate response.
