Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:2124. [PMID: 37631339 PMCID: PMC10460031 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15082124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Malignant melanoma poses a significant global health burden. It is the most aggressive and lethal form of skin cancer, attributed to various risk factors such as UV radiation exposure, genetic modifications, chemical carcinogens, immunosuppression, and fair complexion. Photodynamic therapy is a promising minimally invasive treatment that uses light to activate a photosensitizer, resulting in the formation of reactive oxygen species, which ultimately promote cell death. When selecting photosensitizers for melanoma photodynamic therapy, the presence of melanin should be considered. Melanin absorbs visible radiation similar to most photosensitizers and has antioxidant properties, which undermines the reactive species generated in photodynamic therapy processes. These characteristics have led to further research for new photosensitizing platforms to ensure better treatment results. The development of photosensitizers has advanced with the use of nanotechnology, which plays a crucial role in enhancing solubility, optical absorption, and tumour targeting. This paper reviews the current approaches (that use the synergistic effect of different photosensitizers, nanocarriers, chemotherapeutic agents) in the photodynamic therapy of melanoma.

Abstract
The boron difluoride complex is known as an extraordinary class of fluorescent dyes, which has attracted research interest because of its excellent properties. This article reports the optical properties such as absorption, fluorescence, molar absorptivity, and photo-physical parameters like dipole moment, and oscillator strength of new fluorescent organic dye based on boron difluoride complex 2-(1-(difluoroboraneyl)-1,2-dihydroquinolin-2-yl)-2-(1-methylquinoxalin-2-ylidene) acetonitrile (DBDMA). The spectral characterization of the dye was measured in sol-gel glass, photosol-gel, and organic-inorganic matrices. The absorption and fluorescence properties of DBDMA in sol-gel glass matrices were compared with each other. Compared with the classical sol-gel, it was noticed that the photosol-gel matrix is the best one with immobilized DBDMA. In the latter, a large stokes shift was obtained (97 nm) and a high fluorescence quantum yield of 0.5. Special attention was paid to the addition of gold NPs into the hybrid material. The fluorescence emission intensity of the DBDMA with and without gold nanoparticles in different solid media is described, and that displayed organic-inorganic matrix behavior is the best host.

Abstract
In recent years, BODIPY derivatives have become one of the research hotspots in the field of bioprobes, but most of them have the problems of poor hydrophilicity, low biocompatibility and no targeting. In this paper, novel ethylenediamine bridging bis-sulfonyl-BODIPY fluorescent probes were successfully designed and synthesized to solve these problems; What's more, the cytotoxicity analysis, cell imaging, in vivo imaging and apoptosis experiments were carried out. Ethylenediamine bridges and oxygen-rich sulfonyl groups made such probes had certain hydrophilicity, so they could be dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide and methanol. The IC50 value of compound 9 in HCT-116 cells was 93.12 ± 6.33 µM, and in HeLa cells was 89.09 ± 11.84 µM, which indicating that the probe had certain inhibitory effect on cancer cells. The excellent biocompatibility and potential tumor targeting properties of the compound were clearly observed in cell and mice imaging. This study is of great significance for the rational design of novel targeted BODIPY probes with good hydrophilicity and biocompatibility.

Abstract
A simple semiempiric phenomenological approach is developed for quantifying the solvent effect on the absorption and emission properties of BODIPYs. It is based on a new rule describing the linear relationship between the difference (Stokes shift) and the sum (double Gibbs free energy of electron transfer) for absorption and emission wavenumbers derived from a combination of solvent functions of Liptay theory. This rule is correspondent to changes of dipole moments in the ground and excited states. High reliability and advantages of the developed approach in comparison with traditional methods of the analysis of the solvatochromism based on Dimroth-Reichard and Lippert-Mataga solvent scales are illustrated for selected BODIPYs exhibiting positive, negative, and near-zero solvatochromism.

Abstract
The synthesis with full structural characterization including elemental analysis and 1H, 13C, 11B and 19F NMR, FT-IR and MALDI-TOF spectral data, along with the florescence sensing behavior of a new resorcin[4]arene cavitand 3 bearing multiple BODIPY sites achieved by the Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) is being reported. The spatial orientation of multiple BODIPY-1,2,3-triazole arms based on the macrocyclic rigid core is of great interest since the resulting structure has been utilized as a fluorescent chemosensor for numerous metal cations. In particular, a remarkable decrease in the fluorescence emission towards Cu(ii) ions, i.e., "turn-off" response, has been obtained giving rise to an optical sensor for the detection of triazole fungicides, namely tebuconazole, triadimenol, triadimefon, i.e. "turn-on" response. Such a molecular system, hence, can be feasibly applied as a dual optical sensor, i.e. "a turn-on-off-on" system, for dangerous contaminants such as heavy metals and pesticides.
