Abstract
Stimuli-responsive nanoplatforms for efficient delivery of drugs in an on-demand manner show promising potential for killing cancer cells with high accuracy and minimal invasiveness. Herein, taking advantage of the good tissue-penetrating depth of sonodynamic therapy (SDT), reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive nanoscale coordination polymers (NCPs) were designed through self-assembly of porphyrins (PP) and platinum, which contained ROS-cleavable thioketal (TK) linkers to enhance the release of doxorubicin (Dox) during SDT. Upon exposure to the ultrasound (US), the Dox-loaded NCPs (PTK@PEG/Dox) could generate high amounts of cytotoxic ROS and heat, which not only induced the apoptosis of MCF-7 cells but also facilitated the efficient release of Dox due to the decomposition of the ROS-sensitive TK linkers, achieving the synergistic therapy of US-induced therapy and chemotherapy. After being modified with Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide, RGD/PTK@PEG exhibited a good targeting ability to cancer cells. Importantly, using the multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) derived from MCF-7 cells as a model, the RGD/PTK@PEG/Dox exhibited an efficient and controlled release behavior of Dox under the US irradiation, accompanying a tremendous anti-cancer effect for inducing apoptosis in the solid tumor tissues. This work provided a potential strategy to design controllable and stimuli-responsive nanoplatforms for synergistic/enhanced US-induced cancer therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Stimulus-responsive nanoplatforms can deliver drugs efficiently in an on-demand manner, showing the potential to kill cancer cells with high accuracy and minimal invasiveness. Taking advantage of the good penetration ability of ultrasound (US), nanoscale coordination polymers (NCP) composed of porphyrin (PP), thioketal (TK) linkers, and platinum(II) were prepared via a coordination-driven self-assembly procedure. After doxorubicin (Dox) was loaded on the NCP (PTK@PEG/Dox), the nanoplatform responded to reactive oxygen species (ROS) under the stimulation of US, and induced the on-demand release of Dox, thereby achieving the combined therapeutic effect of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and chemotherapy for cancer. This work provides a potential strategy for the development of controllable and stimuli-responsive nanoplatforms for enhanced ultrasound-induced cancer therapy.

Abstract
The formation of chromophore arrays using a DNA templating approach leads to the creation of supramolecular assemblies, where the optical properties of the overall system can be fine-tuned to a large extent. In particular, porphyrin derivatives have been shown to be versatile building blocks; mostly covalent chemistry was used for embedding the units into DNA strands. Self-assembly of porphyrin modified nucleosides, on the other hand, has not been investigated as a simplified approach. We report on the synthesis of a magnesium(II) tetraaza porphine (MgTAP) coupled to deoxyuridine, and array formation on DNA templates which contain well-defined oligo(dA) segments showing strong fluorescence enhancement which is significantly larger than that with a Zn-porphyrin. The use of the deep-eutectic solvent glycholine is essential for successful assembly formation. The system allows for sizing of short tandem repeat markers with multiple adenosines, thus the concept could be adaptable to in vitro forensic DNA profiling with a suitable set of different chromophores on all nucleosides.

Abstract
The cationic porphyrin 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (diisopropyl-guanidine)-21H,23H-porphine (DIGPor) selectively binds to DNA containing O6 -methylguanine (O6 -MeG) and inhibits the DNA repair enzyme O6 -methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT). The O6 -MeG selectivity and MGMT inhibitory activity of DIGPor were improved by incorporating ZnII into the porphyrin. The resulting metal complex (Zn-DIGPor) potentiated the activity of the DNA-alkylating drug temozolomide in an MGMT-expressing cell line. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of DNA-targeted MGMT inhibition.

Abstract
The goal of this work has been to synthesize and investigate Pd(TC3), an intercalating porphyrin that has conformable substituents capable of groove binding to B-form DNA. (TC3 denotes the doubly deprotonated form of 5,10,15,20-tetra[3-(3'-methylimidazolium-1'-yl)prop-1-yl]porphyrin.) Palladium(ii) is an apt choice for the central metal ion because it remains strictly four-coordinate and provides for a luminescent triplet excited state with a long lifetime. The DNA hosts are hairpin-forming sequences programmed to differ in base composition. Luminescence, absorbance, and circular dichroism results are consistent with the idea that congruent structural reorganization takes place at the host and ligand during uptake. Photoexcitation of DNA-bound Pd(TC3) generates a comparatively modest steady state concentration of singlet oxygen, due to a relatively slow reaction with molecular oxygen in solution. The sheer size of the substituent groups disfavors quenching, but groove-binding interactions compound the problem by inhibiting mobility. The results show how ligand design affects adduct structure as well as function.

Abstract
A series of nucleobase appended tri-cationic porphyrins ( AT 4, TT 4, GT 4 and CT 4) have been synthesized and their binding and cleaving ability of DNA were investigated in this present study. UV-vis, fluorescence, circular dichroism and thermal melting studies were carried out to investigate binding of the porphyrin with calf thymus DNA (CTDNA). The apparent binding constant ( K app ) and the intrinsic binding constant ( K b) values calculated from UV-vis and fluorescence titrations, respectively, were comparable to 5,10,15,20-tetra(N-methylpyridinium-4-yl) porphyrin ( H 2 T 4) or slightly more for few compounds. Circular dichroism spectra of these porphyrins with DNA show variation in their mode of binding. Among the nucleobase appended tri-cationic porphyrins, the porphyrin in GT4 and TT4 exhibit strong intercalating ability in the DNA duplex whereas the porphyrin in AT 4 and CT 4 exhibit very less ability for intercalation. The intercalating efficiency of the porphyrin in GT 4 is even stronger than that of the H 2 T 4. The steric strain exists between the tri-cationic porphyrin moiety and the DNA may decrease depending on (a) the ease to exhibit keto-enol tautomerism due to the more acidic protons in guanine and thymine, (b) extended conjugation and (c) hydrogen bonding capability of the nucleobase moieties. Photocleavage proclivities with pBR322 DNA in the presence of light reveal that AT 4, TT 4 and CT 4 show same amount of cleavage but GT 4 shows more cleaving efficiency than H 2 T 4 due to the stacked guanine moieties those are more reducing than a single guanine residue. The singlet oxygen mechanism that is responsible for the photocleavage was confirmed with various inhibitors and interestingly with Tiron (disodium salt of 1,2-dihydroxy-3,5-benzenedisulfonic acid) the photocleaving efficiency increases due to the inhibition of superoxide formation.

Abstract
Several cationic beta-vinyl-pyridinium and beta-vinyl-quinolinium-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin derivatives were synthesized starting from 2-formyl-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin, and the corresponding Zn(II) complex, and different N-alkyl derivatives of 2- and 4-methylpyridine and 2- and 4-methylquinoline. The new compounds were obtained in a one-step process via base catalyzed aldol-type condensation reactions. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy were used to investigate the binding mode of the synthesized cationic beta-vinyl-pyridinium and beta-vinyl-quinolinium-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin derivatives with a short GC duplex oligonucleotide. Analysis of the obtained mass spectrometry results indicates the probable occurrence of outside binding. UV-vis spectroscopy data also points to non-intercalation. The potential photosensitizing capacity of these compounds was also ascertained from preliminary photophysical studies.

Abstract
A general method of synthesis of 5,15-diaryltetrabenzoporphyrins (Ar 2TBPs) has been developed, based on 2 + 2 condensation of dipyrromethanes followed by oxidative aromatization. Two pathways to Ar 2TBPs were investigated: the tetrahydroisoindole pathway and the dihydroisoindole pathway. In the tetrahydroisoindole pathway, precursor 5,15-diaryltetracyclohexenoporphyrins (5,15-Ar 2TCHPs) were assembled from cyclohexeno-fused meso-unsubstituted dipyrromethanes and aromatic aldehydes or, alternatively, by way of the classical MacDonald synthesis. In the first case, scrambling was observed. Aromatization by tetracyclone was more effective than aromatization by DDQ but failed in the cases of porphyrins with electron-withdrawing substituents in the meso-aryl rings. The dihydroisoindole pathway was found to be much superior to the tetrahydroisoindole pathway, and it was developed into a general preparative method, consisting of (1) the synthesis of 4,7-dihydroisoindole and its transformation into meso-unsubstituted dipyrromethanes, (2) the synthesis of 5,15-diaryloctahydrotetrabenzoporphyrins (5,15-Ar 2OHTBPs), and (3) their subsequent aromatization by DDQ. Ar 2TBP free bases exhibit optical absorption spectra similar to those of meso-unsubstituted tetrabenzoporphyrins and fluoresce with high quantum yields. Pd complex of Ph 2TBP was found to be highly phosphorescent at room temperature.

Abstract
A series of systematically modified porphyrin esters, compounds 1-6, with multiple, permanent positive charges introduced at the meso-positions via N-methylated 4-, 3-, or 2-pyridyl moieties, were prepared and characterized. Their singlet-oxygen production, CT-DNA-binding properties, and plasmid-DNA photocleavage propensities were determined spectroscopically and by gel electrophoresis, and compared to those of the known, fourfold-charged parent porphyrin 4,4',4'',4'''-porphyrin-5,10,15,20-tetrayltetrakis(1-methylpyridinium) (TMPyP4). Some interesting structure-activity relationships could be established to rationalize effects affecting DNA binding mode and cleavage ability.

Abstract
We have synthesized cationic bis-porphyrins and their zinc(II) complexes with two TMPyP-like chromophores bridged by p- or m-xylylenediamine to develop effective DNA photocleaving agents. The xylylene linkers and zinc ion were introduced to control interchromophoric interaction that should be involved in photosensitization of the cationic bis-porphyrins. The molar absorptivities of all the bis-porphyrins in aqueous solution remained unchanged over a wide range of concentrations, indicating the absence of self-aggregation property. In particular, the molar absorptivity of the zinc(II) complex of the p-xylylenediamine-linked bis-porphyrin in aqueous solution was 2.0 times as large as that of unichromophoric ZnTMPyP, suggesting the absence of both intermolecular and intramolecular interchromophoric interaction. The metal-free p-xylylenediamine-linked bis-porphyrin showed the more efficient conversion ability of supercoiled to nicked circular pUC18 plasmid DNA by photosensitization than the metal-free m-xylylenediamine-linked one. Furthermore, the zinc complexes of the bis-porphyrins exhibited the more potent DNA photocleavage than did the metal-free bis-porphyrins. Singlet oxygen productivity of the four cationic bis-porphyrins was determined by measuring the decomposition rate of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran. The amount of singlet oxygen generated by photosensitization of the zinc(II) complex of the p-xylylenediamine-linked bis-porphyrin in aqueous solution was 2.1 times as large as ZnTMPyP, indicating the full singlet oxygen productivity. A significant relationship between the DNA photocleaving abilities and the singlet oxygen productivities of the cationic porphyrins in aqueous solution was found. Hence, the degree of the intramolecular interchromophoric interaction, the DNA photocleaving ability, and the singlet oxygen productivity of the cationic bis-porphyrins in aqueous solution were successfully controlled by means of the introduction of the appropriate linker and metal ion.

Abstract
The binding of manganese(III)-tetra(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (MnTMpyP) with synthetic poly(dA-dT)2, poly(dI-dC)2, and poly(dG-dC)2 DNAs as well as calf thymus (CT) DNA has been quantitatively studied in detail using induced CD (circular dichroism) spectroscopy in the Soret absorption band. The CD spectra, which changed greatly depending on the porphyrin to DNA base-pair molar ratio (r), were normalized with respect to DNA concentration and deconvoluted. Three independent component binding modes (named mode 1, 2, and 3 in the order of increasing r values) were identified, which successfully simulated the observed CD spectra with negligibly small residuals for a wide range of r values. In the case of poly(dA-dT)2, poly (dI-dC)2, and CT DNA, all the three modes appeared, whereas in the case of poly(dG-dC)2 DNA, only modes 1 and 3 appeared in the r range studied. The r dependence of each binding mode, i.e., its relative affinity toward DNA, has been revealed by this analysis. Mode 1, which appeared as a single binding mode at very low r values (r < or = ca. 0.05), was inhibited by the addition of methyl green, a drug that preferentially binds to the major groove of poly (dA-dT)2 DNA. Berenil, a known minor groove binder to poly(dA-dT)2 or poly(dI-dC)2 DNA, inhibited modes 2 and 3. From these inhibition experiments as well as comparison of the component spectra for DNAs of different sequence, a binding site on DNA was proposed for each component binding mode. The number of DNA base pairs covered by a single molecule of porphyrin was estimated.

Abstract
Twelve trans-dicationic pyridium porphyrins appending different peripheral substituents were synthesized and their abilities to bind and cleave DNA under irradiation have been investigated. Their binding modes to DNA were studied by UV-vis spectroscopy, circular dichroism. The apparent constants were measured by EB competitive fluorescence method and most of them were in the range of 10(4)-10(5) M(-1). We found that both the position of positive charges and steric hindrance could greatly influence their binding affinities and modes to DNA, and then affect their photocleaving abilities to DNA.

Abstract
Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) and Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy were used to investigate the non-covalent interactions between small oligonucleotide duplexes with the GC motif and a group of cationic meso(N-methylpyridynium-4-yl)porphyrins (four free bases with one to four positive charges, and the zinc complex of the tetracationic free base). The results obtained point to outside binding of the porphyrins, with the binding strength increasing with the number of positive charges. Fragmentations involving losses from both chains were observed for the porphyrins with N-methylpyridinium-4-yl groups in opposite meso positions.

Abstract
Five amphiphilic meso-disubstituted porphyrins bearing one polar group were synthesized, and their monolayer films were prepared. Their limiting molecular areas obtained from pi-A isotherms were 0.5-0.6 nm2, which were smaller than those of the corresponding meso-tetrasubstituted porphyrins. At the air-water interface, the disubstituted porphyrins showed a broad band in visible absorption spectra compared with the solution state, and the red shift of the Soret band exhibited a significant dependence on the kind of hydrophilic groups at the meso positions. Interestingly, the monolayer of the disubstituted porphyrin bearing a carboxyphenyl group (1-CO2H) showed a blue shift of the Soret band by adding cadmium chloride to the subphase, and the spectra varied upon multilayer deposition. The observed phenomena were interpreted by using the exciton theory. The effect of hydrophilic substituents on the absorption spectra of disubstituted porphyrin monolayers is discussed.

Abstract
A novel design of anticancer drug delivery system, based on an electrostatic binding of negatively charged liposomes and cationic metalloporphyrins under physiological conditions, is reported. A lack of cytotoxicity of the iron(III) porphyrin-loaded liposomes and an efficient generation of a toxic hydroxyl radical (OH*) from a superoxide anion radical (O2-*) through the iron(III)-catalyzed dismutation and the Fenton-like reaction allow for a targeted necrosis of tumor cells where the concentration of O2-* is locally increased as a result of the reduced activity of superoxide dismutase and catalase in these cells.
