Research Abstract |
Fluorescence-guided gross-total resection has recently been developed, where 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is administered as the precursor of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). This study has been undertaken to gain insight into the molecular mechanism underlying ALA-induced PpIX accumulation in malignant brain tumors. By comparing gene expression profiles, PpIX accumulation in brain tumor was found to be regulated by two transporters PEPT and ABCG2 that transport ALA and PpIX, respectively. Transcription factor Nrf2 plays a significant role in regulating ABCG2 gene expression, where one SNP (-617C>A) in the Nrf2 gene is suggested to be critically involved. We therefore developed a rapid and simple method to detect that SNP allele. Furthermore, we identified one drug that is potent for ABCG2-inhibition and may significantly enhance the efficacy of ALA-based photodynamic diagnosis and therapy.
