چکیده

The synthesis and characterization of a highly photostable bromo-substituted BODIPY dye (I) fused-ring-expanded with thienopyrrole moieties is reported. The results of MTT assays and flow cytometric analyses in living HeLa cells demonstrate that I has a high singlet oxygen quantum yield (ΦΔ = 0.63) and exhibits photocytotoxicity upon irradiation in the NIR region making it potentially suitable for use in PDT.

Oxygen Self-Sufficient Amphiphilic Polypeptide Nanoparticles Encapsulating BODIPY for Potential Near Infrared Imaging-guided Photodynamic Therapy at Low Energy

Near infrared (NIR) imaging-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT) is remarkable for its high-efficiency in "see and treat" field. However, hypoxia of cancer cell limits PDT dues to the low singlet oxygen yield. Here MnO2 conjugated multifunctional polypeptide nanoparticles encapsulating photosensitizer BODIPY has been prepared via a one-step reaction, which can generate oxygen in cancer cytoplasm w...

NIR imaging-guided combined photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy by a pH-responsive amphiphilic polypeptide prodrug.

pH-Sensitive doxorubicin conjugated polymeric micelles entrapped with near infrared (NIR) photosensitizer BODIPY (which works as an imaging agent at the same time) were designed and synthesized by ring opening polymerization of N-carboxyanhydride with mPEG-NH2 as the initiator, following reaction with doxorubicin to form the hydrazone-bond linker for pH responsiveness. Then the NIR dye (BODIPY)...

pH-Responsive supramolecular vesicles assembled by water-soluble pillar[5]arene and a BODIPY photosensitizer for chemo-photodynamic dual therapy.

Supramolecular vesicles which can successfully encapsulate DOX and exhibit rapid drug release in a low-pH environment are constructed based on the host-guest interaction of water-soluble pillar[5]arene and a BODIPY derivative. They show remarkable combination of chemo- and photodynamic activities, suggesting a promising drug nanocarrier.
