This review presents a robust strategy to design photosensitizers (PSs) for various species.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a photochemical-based treatment approach that involves the …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a therapeutic mode involving light triggering, has been
recognized as an attractive oncotherapy treatment. However, nonnegligible challenges …

Cancer has been one of the most common life‐threatening diseases for a long time.
Traditional cancer therapies such as surgery, chemotherapy (CT), and radiotherapy (RT) …

Recent studies found that unbalanced copper homeostasis affect tumor growth, causing
irreversible damage. Copper can induce multiple forms of cell death, including apoptosis …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) exploits light-activated compounds for therapeutic use. It relies
on a photosensitiser (PS) that is inactive in the absence of light. When irradiated, the PS …

A critical issue in photodynamic therapy (PDT) is inadequate reactive oxygen species (ROS)
generation in tumors, causing inevitable survival of tumor cells that usually results in tumor …

Octahedral Ir (III) complexes bearing cyclometalated ligands exhibit a great stability in
biological media and are excellent therapeutical and phototherapeutical candidates for …

Two-photon excitation has attracted the attention of biologists, especially after the
development of two-photon excited microscopy in the nineties. Since then, new applications …

The Pt (IV) prodrug trans, trans, trans-[Pt (pyridine) 2 (N3) 2 (OH) 2](Pt1) and its coumarin
derivative trans, trans, trans-[Pt (pyridine) 2 (N3) 2 (OH)(coumarin-3-carboxylate)](Pt2) are …

Photoluminescent cyclometalated iridium (III) complexes are now a well established class of
organometallic compounds with advantageous potential applications in biology and life …
