Fig. 5 Effects of 0.01% Intralipid on the efficacy of PDT in ovarian cancer cell lines. (a) Dose-response curves for OVCAR-3, Caov-3, OVCAR-8 and OVCAR-5 cells treated with PDT using 0.125 μM BPD alone (0%, gray) or with 0.01% Intralipid (purple), where BPD was incubated with cells for 90 min, and Intralipid was added prior and removed immediately after irradiation. (b) Dose-response curves under the same conditions as in (a), but and Intralipid were left in the plates for 72 h post-irradiation. (c) Effect of post-irradiation presence of PDT-exposed Intralipid at a 0.1 J/cm2 across the four cell lines.
