Elsinochrome A
Elsinochrome A is a perylene quinone photosensitizer, and can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) to induce apoptosis and autophagy under light excitation. Elsinochrome A also shows antifungal activity against C. albicans biofilm through photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) . Elsinochrome A can be used for research of photodynamic therapy (PDT) (Ex: 460 nm) [1][2].
