Background

Cardiogreen, also known as indocyanine green, is a nontoxic tricarbocyanine dye, with a peak spectral absorption at 790 nm. Cardiogreen administered intravenously rapidly binds to its principle carrier, plasma protein, and then becomes confined to the vascular space. Cardiogreen has been commonly used in medical diagnostics for measuring cardiac output, liver blood flow, and hepatic function, as well as for ophthalmic angiography. In addition, cardiogreen can also be used as a photosensitizer in the photodynamic therapy (PDT) for treating diseases like periodontal infections.

Protocol

Cell experiment:[2]

Cell lines

Human gingival fibroblast (HGF) cells

Reaction Conditions

1000 μg/mL cardiogreen for 5 min incubation

Applications

Cardiogreen PDT with the exposure time of 60s for the diode laser would appear to be an inducer of apoptosis in HGF cells at transcriptome level.
