Journal ArticleDOI

Bacteriochlorins and their metal complexes as NIR-absorbing photosensitizers: properties, mechanisms, and applications

TL;DR: An up-to-date overview of the most significant studies on the synthesis, spectroscopic, photochemical, and electrochemical characteristics as well as various potential applications of bacteriochlorins and their metal complexes can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensitization of TiO2 by halogenated porphyrin derivatives for visible light biomedical and environmental photocatalysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a new hybrid TiO2-based materials were obtained by impregnation of semiconductor with 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,6-difluorosulfonylophenyl)porphyrin (F2POH) and its zinc(II) complex (ZnF2pOH).
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in strategies for overcoming hypoxia in photodynamic therapy of cancer.

TL;DR: Emerging evidence indicates that wisely designed phototherapeutic procedures, including: ROS-tunable photosensitizers, organelle targeting, nano-based photoactive drugs and/or PS delivery nanosystems, as well as combining with other strategies can significantly improve the PDT efficacy and overcome the resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photodynamic Inactivation of Bacteria with Porphyrin Derivatives: Effect of Charge, Lipophilicity, ROS Generation, and Cellular Uptake on Their Biological Activity In Vitro.

TL;DR: The results showed that E. coli exhibited higher resistance to PDI than S. aureus, and the prolongation of irradiation remarkably improved the inactivation of pathogens and revealed the importance of photosensitizer photostability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced Cellular Uptake and Photodynamic Effect with Amphiphilic Fluorinated Porphyrins: The Role of Sulfoester Groups and the Nature of Reactive Oxygen Species.

TL;DR: The presented results support the idea that the rational design of photosensitizers for PDT can be further improved by better understanding the determinants affecting its therapeutic efficiency and explain how smart structural modifications can make them suitable photosensiticers for application in PDT.
