In this study, Ce-doped TiO2 (TiO2:Ce) was synthesized by a modified sol-gel method to act as a photosensitizer activated by low-dose X-rays, less harmful than ionizing radiation, to generate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). The A549 cell line was used as the in vitro and in vivo model to evaluate the efficacy of X-ray-irradiated TiO2:Ce to induce cell death. The cell viability significantly decreased with TiO2:Ce exposure under low-dose X-ray irradiation. An LDH assay showed that intracellular TiO2:Ce under X-ray irradiation was cytotoxic to A549 cancer cells. TiO2:Ce produced significant ROS under low-dose X-ray irradiation and promoted apoptosis/necrosis of A549 cancer cells. TiO2:Ce can enhance the efficacy of X-ray-induced PDT, and tumor growth was inhibited in vivo. The mechanisms underlying ROS generation by TiO2:Ce activated by X-ray irradiation to induce cell toxicity, thereby inhibiting tumor growth, is discussed. ? 2017 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l. |
