Relationship between the effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and the intracellular PpIX concentration in carcinomas (a) and sarcomas (b). Carcinomas: IUT (blue closed circle), Jack (blue open circle), Gal (blue closed triangle), YDP (blue open triangle), HDC (blue closed diamond), LuBi (blue open diamond), JDM (blue closed square), FBC (blue open square), and SNP (blue cross); Sarcomas: SGR (orange closed circle), KLC (orange open circle), DML (orange closed triangle), YCC (orange open triangle), ITP (orange closed square), and HTR (orange open square). Correlation of 5-ALA-PDT cytotoxicity at 1 mM with intracellular PpIX concentration was determined using Pearson correlation analysis.
