High intensity nanosecond pulsed electric fields §(nsPEF) were applied on melanoma tumors to observe §functional and structural biological changes and to §investigate the possible molecular mechanisms §responsible. A treatment of 300 nanosecond pulses §were delivered to melanoma. The nsPEF §Tx caused tumor self-destruction with sharply §decreased cell volumes and shrunken nuclei. The §apoptotic biochemical tests confirmed nsPEF Tx §induced apoptosis in a time-dependent manner. §Examination of gross vessel and micro-vessel density §indicated direct vascular damage to pre-existing §vessels and anti-angiogenic consequence on §neovascular development concomitant with tumor self-§destruction. In contradistinction to ionization, §thermal or electroporation Tx, nsPEFs produced broad §impacts on the melanomas in vivo, ranging from DNA §fragmentation, caspase activation, nuclear damage, §apoptosis induction, damage to pre-existing intra-§tumoral vessels and neovascular inhibition.
