A HCl/alcohol formulation increased 5-aminolevulinic acid skin distribution using an ex vivo full thickness porcine skin model.[Pubmed:18380780]
Exp Dermatol. 2008 Oct;17(10):813-20.
Topical photodynamic therapy with 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a newly established treatment modality for epithelial skin cancer. Skin distribution of different 20% 5-ALA formulations was investigated by detection of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) using an ex vivo porcine skin model. Fluorescence of PpIX was first detectable at 2 h after application of a 5-ALA/HCl-alcohol solution, followed by a 5-ALA gel +/- 40% DMSO > 5-ALA lipophilic ointment > 5-ALA hydrophilic ointment at 4 h after application. Intensity of PpIX was 10-fold higher after 5-ALA/HCl-alcohol application in contrast to 5-ALA hydrophilic ointment. Maxima of PpIX fluorescence were measured between 18 and 24 h after application. PpIX accumulation induced by 5-ALA within the lower parts of the epidermis was increased in order of 5-ALA hydrophilic ointment < 5-ALA lipophilic ointment < 5-ALA gel w/o DMSO < 5-ALA gel with DMSO < 5-ALA/HCl-alcohol. Illumination of skin incubated with different 5-ALA formulations led to a marked increase of apoptotic cells in the epidermis depending on the penetration depth of the 5-ALA formulations. A formulation containing short chain alcohols have been observed to increase the permeation and distribution of 5-ALA. PpIX fluorescence was detected earlier yielding to photodynamic effective amounts of PpIX in the epidermis as compared with all other 5-ALA formulations used. These data emphasizes the potential of investigating properties of new formulations using such a full thickness porcine skin model.
Clinical utility of 5-aminolevulinic acid HCl to better visualize and more completely remove gliomas.[Pubmed:27672334]
Onco Targets Ther. 2016 Sep 12;9:5629-42.
Surgical resection is typically the first line of treatment for gliomas. However, the neurosurgeon faces a major challenge in achieving maximal resection in high-grade gliomas as these infiltrative tumors make it difficult to discern tumor margins from normal brain with conventional white-light microscopy alone. To aid in resection of these infiltrative tumors, fluorescence-guided surgery has gained much popularity in intraoperative visualization of malignant gliomas, with 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) leading the way. First introduced in an article in Neurosurgery, 5-ALA has since become a safe, effective, and inexpensive method to visualize and improve resection of gliomas. This has undoubtedly led to improvements in the clinical course of patients as demonstrated by the increased overall and progression-free survival in patients with such devastating disease. This literature review aims to discuss the major studies and trials demonstrating the clinical utility of 5-ALA and its ability to aid in complete resection of malignant gliomas.
