Résumé

This research proposes a novel combination therapy that utilizes ultrasound-assisted cryoablation to enhance the lethality of cryoablation in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HepG2) cells. Ultrasound is used to induce ice nucleation, followed by thawing at a set temperature. The efficacy of this approach was evaluated by assessing cell survival rates in hepatocellular carcinoma cells using Acridine Orange/ Propidium Iodide (AO/PI) staining and the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), comparing ultrasound-assisted cryoablation with cryoablation alone. At a cooling rate of 10 °C/min and lower nucleation temperatures, a significant reduction in cell survival rate was observed (15.60 ± 2.60 %). Cryomicroscopic observations revealed that enhanced intracellular and extracellular ice formation led to increased cellular damage and higher cryoablation lethality. This innovative therapy provides a promising approach for localized treatment and highlights the potential of cryoablation devices incorporating ultrasound-induced nucleation.
