Photodynamic Action

advertisement
Action spectrum (approximate) for the induction of erythema in human skin, and average
intensity at the earth’s surface. The figure also depicts the ranges of various UV regions.

UVC (200-280nm) blocked by
ozone layer
Produced by some
artificial light sources
May penetrate top layers
of skin
UVB (280-320nm) responsible
for sunburn
Contributes little to
tanning
Causes squamous cell
carcinoma and
Leathery skin
200
250

UVA (320-400nm) penetrates
deep into the
Dermis.
Causes wrinkles,
blotches & age-spots
Stimulate melanin to tan
Contributes to sunburn

Type II reaction
Imidazole ring reacts with 1O2 adding O2 across the double
bond, forming an unstable cyclic intermediate which
subsequently breaks down
Histidine in protein gets damaged
Tryptophan - types I (free radical) and types II 1O2
Lipids
Type II reaction
1O adds across double bond of lipid molecule
2
Lipids are found in cell membrane, reaction leads
to disruption of the cell membrane and cell death
Carbohydrates - alcohols, sugars, vitamin C
alcohol
ketone
Type I reaction
Contain many hydroxyls (-OH) which interact with the triplet
excited state giving a free radical reaction
A free radical is formed and can react further
Nucleic Acids - Purines
Guanine, xanthine + 1O2
Type II damage
Purines can be oxidised and therefore are susceptible to
attack by singlet oxygen.
Not as susceptible as histidine or tryptophan, but
damage does occur
