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 …

The development of highly efficient and minimally toxic agents with targeting abilities toward
tumor tissues is an ongoing area of research in the fight against cancer. Different from the …

Here we report the formation of an unexpected and unique family of chiral helicates. Crystal
structures show that these triple‐stranded ZnII2L3 complexes are held together by …

The development of DNA‐targeted photodynamic therapy (PDT) agents for cancer treatment
has drawn substantial attention. Herein, the design and synthesis of dinuclear IrIII …

Known as highly efficient metallodrugs that have been clinically used to treat various types
of cancers, cisplatin and its analogues have attracted and inspired extensive interest in the …

Helicity is an archetypal structural motif of many biological systems and provides a basis for
molecular recognition in DNA. Whilst artificial supramolecular hosts are often helical, the …

The preparation of multinuclear metal complexes offers a route to novel anticancer agents
and delivery systems. The potency of a novel triangular multinuclear complex containing …

Although circular helicates can be assembled with a range of labile transition-metal centers,
solely “chiral-at-metal” examples (ie, systems without chiral ligands) and heterometallic (ie …

Naturally occurring peptides in many living systems perform antimicrobial and anticancer
host defence roles, but their potential for clinical application is limited by low metabolic …

A class of rotaxane is created, not by encapsulating a conventional linear thread, but rather
by wrapping a large cucurbit [10] uril macrocycle about a three-dimensional, cylindrical …
