The role of photodynamic therapy in the treatment of cervical cancer
Cervical cancer is one of the common fatal cancers worldwide.Currently,the treatment of cervical cancer is mainly surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy.The reproductive risks,physical trauma,psychological burden,and side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy caused by surgical treatment seriously affect the physical and mental health of patients,so it is necessary to explore better and more effective anti-tumor methods.Photodynamic therapy(PDT)is one of the current adjuvant methods for cancer,with the advantages of low invasion,low side effects,and high spatiotemporal selectivity.It is an ideal alternative for the treatment of cervical cancer.At present,research on the treatment of cervical cancer with PDT is gradually emerging,with significant achievements in the fields of photosensitizers,combination therapy,and nanomaterials.PDT has shown significant anti cervical cancer tumor cell effects in vitro experiments.From in vitro to in vivo experiments,overcoming the difficulties of the special location of cervical cancer compared to surface tumors,and finding suitable PS or nanomaterial solutions for PDT clinical treatment of cervical cancer are currently the key to research.As an advantageous treatment method,PDT has broad prospects use in the treatment of cervical cancer.This review elaborates on the current treatment status of cervical cancer,the advantages of PDT in treating tumors,and the research status of PDT in treating cervical cancer.It emphasizes the importance of nanomaterials in PDT treatment of cervical cancer,aiming to provide new directions and strategies for PDT treatment of cervical cancer.
