Antitumor photosensitizer-9

Antitumor photosensitizer-9 is a near-infrared photosensitizer (PS) with a high singlet oxygen production rate (relative rate = 1.79) . It demonstrates significant phototoxicity against various cancer cells by inducing ROS generation under light exposure. In vivo, it inhibits tumor growth effectively and exhibits excellent anticancer photodynamic therapy (PDT) effects at low drug and light doses. Antitumor photosensitizer-9 is suitable for photodynamic therapy research.
