Abstract
A ruthenium nitrosyl complex of formula [RuII(fluorene(C6)CH2O-terpy)(bipy)(NO)]3+ (AC) in which fluorene(C6) is the 9,9-dihexylfluorene, terpy the 2,2';6',2''-terpyridine, and bipy the 2,2'-bipyridine is presented with its related [RuII(MeO-terpy)(bipy)(NO)]3+ (C) and 9,9-dihexylfluorene 2-hydroxymethylfluorene (A) building blocks. The reference complex C undergoes NO release capabilities under irradiation at λ = 365 nm. The effect of the introduction of the fluorescent A antenna within the resulting AC complex is discussed both experimentally and theoretically. The importance of the encaging parameter defined as ϕAC·IAC, in which IAC is the quantity of light absorbed by AC and ϕAC the quantum yield of NO release is evidenced and found to be concentration dependent. The conditions of optimization of the antenna approach to maximize ϕAC·IAC are discussed. The crystal structure of [RuII(fluorene(C6)CH2O-terpy)(bipy)(NO2)](PF6), the last intermediate in the synthesis of AC is also presented.

Abstract
Cancer remains one of the diseases with the highest incidence and mortality globally. Conventional treatment modalities have demonstrated threatening drawbacks including invasiveness, non-controllability, and development of resistance for some, including chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Sono-photodynamic combinatorial therapy (SPDT) has been developed as an alternative treatment modality which offers a non-invasive and controllable therapeutic approach. SPDT combines the mechanism of action of sonodynamic therapy (SDT), which uses ultrasound, and photodynamic therapy (PDT), which uses light, to activate a sensitizer and initiate cancer eradication. The use of phthalocyanines (Pcs) as sensitizers for SPDT is gaining interest owing to their ability to induce intracellular oxidative stress and initiate toxicity under SDT and PDT. This review discusses some of the structural prerequisites of Pcs which may influence their overall SPDT activities in cancer therapy.

Abstract
The combination between photoactive molecules and inorganic structures is of great interest for the development of advanced materials in the field of optics. Particularly, zeotypes with extra-large pore size are attractive because they allow the encapsulation of bulky dyes. The microporous aluminophoshate Mg-ITQ-51 (IFO-type structure) represents an ideal candidate because of the synergic combination of two crucial features: the IFO framework itself, which is composed of non-interconnected one-dimensional extra-large elliptical channels with a diameter up to 11 Å able to host bulky guest species, and the particular organic structure-directing agent used for the synthesis (1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene, DMAN), which efficiently fills the IFO pores, and is itself a photoactive molecule with interesting fluorescence properties in the blue range of the visible spectrum, thus providing a densely-incorporated donor species for FRET processes. Besides, occlusion of DMAN dye in the framework triggers a notable improvement of its fluorescence properties by confinement effect. To extend the action of the material and to mimic processes such as photosynthesis in which FRET is essential, two robust laser dyes with bulky size, rhodamine 123 and Nile Blue, have been encapsulated for the first time in a zeolitic framework, together with DMAN, in a straightforward one-pot synthesis. Thus, photoactive systems with emission in the entire visible range have been achieved due to a partial FRET between organic chromophores protected in a rigid aluminophosphate matrix.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has garnered increasing attention in cancer treatment because of its advantages such as minimal invasiveness and selective destruction. With the development of PDT, impressive progress has been made in the preparation of photosensitizers, particularly porphyrin photosensitizers. However, the limited tissue penetration of the activating light wavelengths and relatively low light energy capture efficiency of porphyrin photosensitizers are two major disadvantages in conventional photosensitizers. Therefore, tissue penetration needs to be enhanced and the light energy capture efficiency of porphyrin photosensitizers improved through structural modifications. The indirect excitation of porphyrin photosensitizers using fluorescent donors (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) has been successfully used to address these issues. In this review, the enhancement of the light energy capture efficiency of porphyrins is discussed.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer is particularly difficult to treat because of its high degree of malignancy and poor prognosis. A fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) nanoplatform plays a very important role in disease diagnosis and treatment due to its unique detection performance. Combining the properties of agglomeration-induced emission fluorophore and FRET pair, a FRET nanoprobe (HMSN/DOX/RVRR/PAMAM/TPE) induced by specific cleavage was designed. First, hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) were used as drug carriers to load doxorubicin (DOX). HMSN nanopores were coated with the RVRR peptide. Then, polyamylamine/phenylethane (PAMAM/TPE) was combined in the outermost layer. When Furin cut off the RVRR peptide, DOX was released and adhered to PAMAM/TPE. Finally, the TPE/DOX FRET pair was constituted. The overexpression of Furin in the triple-negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-468 cell) can be quantitatively detected by FRET signal generation, so as to monitor cell physiology. In conclusion, the HMSN/DOX/RVRR/PAMAM/TPE nanoprobes were designed to provide a new idea for the quantitative detection of Furin and drug delivery, which is conducive to the early diagnosis and treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) with an oxygen-dependent character is a noninvasive therapeutic method for cancer treatment. However, its clinical therapeutic effect is greatly restricted by tumor hypoxia. What's more, both PDT-mediated oxygen consumption and microvascular damage aggravate tumor hypoxia, thus, further impeding therapeutic outcomes. Compared to type II PDT with high oxygen dependence and high oxygen consumption, type I PDT with less oxygen consumption exhibits great potential to overcome the vicious hypoxic plight in solid tumors. Type I photosensitizers (PSs) are significantly important for determining the therapeutic efficacy of PDT, which performs an electron transfer photochemical reaction with the surrounding oxygen/substrates to generate highly cytotoxic free radicals such as superoxide radicals (˙O2-) as type I ROS. In particular, the primary precursor (˙O2-) would progressively undergo a superoxide dismutase (SOD)-mediated disproportionation reaction and a Haber-Weiss/Fenton reaction, yielding higher cytotoxic species (˙OH) with better anticancer effects. As a result, developing high-performance type I PSs to treat hypoxic tumors has become more and more important and urgent. Herein, the latest progress of organic type I PSs (such as AIE-active cationic/neutral PSs, cationic/neutral PSs, polymer-based PSs and supramolecular self-assembled PSs) for monotherapy or synergistic therapeutic modalities is summarized. The molecular design principles and strategies (donor-acceptor system, anion-π+ incorporation, polymerization and cationization) are highlighted. Furthermore, the future challenges and prospects of type I PSs in hypoxia-overcoming PDT are proposed.

Abstract
The photodynamic therapy (PDT) is considered as a noninvasive and photo-controlled treatment for various cancers. However, its potential is not fully developed as current clinically approved photosensitizers (PSs) mainly absorb the light in the UV-visible region (less than 700 nm), where the depth of penetration is inadequate for reaching tumor cells under deeper tissue layers. Furthermore, the lack of specific accumulation capability of the conventional PSs in the tumor cells may cause serious toxicity and low treatment efficiency. To address these problems, riboflavin (Rf) conjugated and amine-functionalized nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (am-N-GQD) are herein proposed. Rf functions as both photosensitizer and targeting ligand by indirect excitation through intra-particle fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) via two-photon (TP) excited am-N-GQD, to enhance the treatment depth, and further am-N-GQD-Rf accumulation in cancer cells using Rf transporter family (RFVTs) and Rf carrier proteins (RCPs). The one-photon (OP) and two-photon(TP)-PDT effect and cellular internalization ability of the am-N-GQD-Rf were investigated in vitro in different cancel cell lines. Besides the excellent cellular uptake as well TP-PDT capability, the superior biocompatibility of am-N-GQD-Rf in vitro makes it promising candidate in PDT.

Abstract
Undoped, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% Nd-doped Bi4Si3O12 (BSO) crystals were synthesized by the floating zone method. Regarding photoluminescence (PL) properties, all samples had emission peaks due to the 6p-6s transitions of Bi3+ ions. In addition, the Nd-doped samples had emission peaks due to the 4f-4f transitions of Nd3+ ions as well. The PL quantum yield of the 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% Nd-doped samples in the near-infrared range were 67.9, 73.0, and 56.6%, respectively. Regarding X-ray-induced scintillation properties, all samples showed emission properties similar to PL. Afterglow levels at 20 ms after X-ray irradiation of the undoped, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% Nd-doped samples were 192.3, 205.9, 228.2, and 315.4 ppm, respectively. Dose rate response functions had good linearity from 0.006 to 60 Gy/h for the 1.0% Nd-doped BSO sample and from 0.03 to 60 Gy/h for the other samples.

Abstract
In this study, a new cyanine-based photosensitizer Cy-N-Rh was developed for photodynamic therapy. Based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism, utilizing the absorption of the donor rhodamine (Rh), the acceptor heptamethine cyanine unit (Cy) was indirectly excited to produce singlet oxygen (1O2). The efficiency of energy transfer from the donor Rh to the acceptor Cy was 78.5%. Meanwhile, the singlet oxygen yield of Cy-N-Rh (ΦΔ = 12.00%) was much higher than that of the acceptor Cy (ΦΔ = 4.35%) without FRET. Moreover, the dual cation gave Cy-N-Rh with excellent mitochondria-targeting ability with Pearson's correlation coefficients of 0.90 and 0.91, respectively. In the MTT test, Cy-N-Rh had low dark cytotoxicity with cell survival rate above 90% and high photo cytotoxicity with cell survival rate below 40%. The cell apoptosis assay also demonstrated the role of the photosensitizer Cy-N-R visually. More importantly, Cy-N-Rh fulfilled two-photon excitation fluorescence imaging under the 800 nm femtosecond laser. All results indicate that this design strategy provides a new method for the development of higher-level cyanine photosensitizers.

Abstract
Lanthanide-based upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) are largely sought-after for biomedical applications ranging from bioimaging to therapy. A straightforward strategy is proposed here using the naturally sourced polymer phytoglycogen to coencapsulate UCNPs with hydrophobic photosensitizers as an optical imaging platform and light-induced therapeutic agents. The resulting multifunctional sub-micrometer-sized luminescent beads are shown to be cytocompatible as carrier materials, which encourages the assessment of their potential in biomedical applications. The loading of UCNPs of various elemental compositions enables multicolor hyperspectral imaging of the UCNP-loaded beads, endowing these materials with the potential to serve as luminescent tags for multiplexed imaging or simultaneous detection of different moieties under near-infrared (NIR) excitation. Coencapsulation of UCNPs and Rose Bengal opens the door for potential application of these microcarriers for collagen crosslinking. Alternatively, coloading UCNPs with Chlorin e6 enables NIR-light triggered generation of reactive oxygen species. Overall, the developed encapsulation methodology offers a straightforward and noncytotoxic strategy yielding water-dispersible UCNPs while preserving their bright and color-tunable upconversion emission that would allow them to fulfill their potential as multifunctional platforms for biomedical applications.

[PMID: 35754870 PMCID: PMC9178442 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra01102f] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2022] [Accepted: 05/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Due to the limitations resulting from hypoxia and the self-aggregation of photosensitizers, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has not been applied clinically to treat most types of solid tumors. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a common metal-organic framework that has ultra-high porosity, an adjustable structure, good biocompatibility, and pH-induced biodegradability. In this review, we summarize the applications of ZIF-8 and its derivatives in PDT. This review is divided into two parts. In the first part, we summarize progress in the application of ZIF-8 to enhance PDT and realize theranostics. We discuss the use of ZIF-8 to avoid the self-aggregation of photosensitizers, alleviate hypoxia, increase the PDT penetration depth, and combine PDT with multi-modal imaging. In the second part, we summarize how ZIF-8 can achieve synergistic PDT with other anti-tumor therapies, including chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, starvation therapy, protein therapy, gene therapy, and immunotherapy. Finally, we highlight the challenges that must be overcome for ZIF-8 to be widely applied in PDT. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first review of ZIF-8-based nanoplatforms for PDT.

Abstract
Tumor tissues need vast supply of nutrients and energy to sustain the rapid proliferation of cancer cells. Cutting off the glucose supply represents a promising cancer therapy approach. Herein, a tumor tissue-targeted enzyme nanogel (rGCP nanogel) with self-supply oxygen capability was developed. The enzyme nanogel synergistically enhanced starvation therapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT) to mitigate the rapid proliferation of cancer cells. The rGCP nanogel was fabricated by copolymerizing two monomers, porphyrin and cancer cells-targeted, Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD), onto the glucose oxidase (GOX) and catalase (CAT) surfaces. The cascade reaction within the rGCP nanogel could efficiently consume intracellular glucose catalyzed by GOX. Concurrently, CAT safely decomposed the produced H2O2 with systemic toxicity to promote oxygen generation and achieved low toxicity starvation therapy. The produced oxygen subsequently facilitated the glucose oxidation reaction and significantly enhanced the generation of cytotoxic singlet oxygen (1O2) in the presence of 660 nm light irradiation. Combining starvation therapy and PDT, the designed enzyme nanogel system presented an amplified synergic cancer therapy effect. This approach potentially paved a new way to fabricate a combinatorial therapy approach by employing cascaded catalytic nanomedicines with good tumor selectivity and efficient anti-cancer effect. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The performance of starvation and photodynamic therapy (PDT) is usually suppressed by intrinsic tumorous hypoxia. Herein, an oxygen self-supplied and tumor tissue-targeted enzyme nanogel was created by copolymerization of two monomers, porphyrin and cancer cell-targeted Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD), onto the surface of glucose oxidase (GOX) and catalase (CAT), which synergistically enhanced starvation therapy and PDT. Moreover, the enzyme nanogels possessed high stability and could be synthesized straightforwardly. This anti-cancer system provides an approach for constructing a combinatorial therapy approach by employing cascaded catalytic nanomedicine with good tumor selectivity and therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Photocatalytic chemical transformations in the presence of irradiated TiO2 are generally considered in terms of interfacial electron transfer. However, more elusive energy-transfer-driven reactions have been also hypothesized to occur, mainly on the basis of the indirect evidence of detected reaction products whose existence could not be justified simply by electron transfer. Unlike in homogeneous and colloidal systems, where energy transfer mechanisms have been investigated deeply for several organic syntheses, understanding of similar processes in heterogeneous systems is at only a nascent level. However, this gap of knowledge can be filled by considering the important achievements of synthetic heterogeneous photocatalysis, which bring the field closer to industrial exploitation. The present manuscript summarizes the main findings of previous literature reports and, also on the basis of some novel experimental evidences, tentatively proposes that the energy transfer in TiO2 photocatalysis could possess a Förster-like nature.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOx)-mediated starvation therapy holds great promise in cancer treatment. However, the worse hypoxia conditions result into low therapeutic efficiency, and undegradability of carriers poses potential threats to living bodies. To address this, herein a bioinspired MnO2 nanosystem with controllable surface was developed for highly efficient starvation/gas synergistic enhanced therapy. Biomimetic design and further surface modification unprecedentedly endowed the nanosystem with ultrahigh loading capacity for GOx and l-Arginine (l-Arg) and special selectivity toward cancer cells. Especially, the dissipative O2 during starvation therapy was well replenished by a positive cycle formed by the nanosystem, which continuously reproduced O2 and accelerated glucose consumption. The abundant H2O2 was further used to oxidize l-Arg into nitric oxide to realize gas therapy. In vitro and in vivo testing confirmed that this new treatment effectively blocked the nutrition and energy sources of cells to obtain excellent therapeutic effect. We reported the first experimental item of this nanosystem for inhibiting cancer cell migration. Considering the novel design concept with facile biomimetic methods, effective co-loading of endogenous substances, and good anti-tumor and anti-migration effects, this work provided new theoretical and experimental basis for starvation therapy and inspired people to design more delicate platform for cancer treatment.

Abstract
With the excellent ability to transform near-infrared light to localized visible or UV light, thereby achieving deep tissue penetration, lanthanide ion-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP) have emerged as one of the most striking nanoscale materials for more effective and safer cancer treatment. Up to now, UCNPs combined with photosensitive components have been widely used in the delivery of chemotherapy drugs, photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy. Applications in these directions are reviewed in this article. We also highlight microenvironmental tumor monitoring and precise targeted therapies. Then we briefly summarize some new trends and the existing challenges for UCNPs. We hope this review can provide new ideas for future cancer treatment based on UCNPs.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising therapy against cancer. Even though it has been investigated for more than 100 years, scientific publications have grown exponentially in the last two decades. For this reason, we present a brief compendium of reviews of the last two decades classified under different topics, namely, overviews, reviews about specific cancers, and meta-analyses of photosensitisers, PDT mechanisms, dosimetry, and light sources. The key issues and main conclusions are summarized, including ways and means to improve therapy and outcomes. Due to the broad scope of this work and it being the first time that a compendium of the latest reviews has been performed for PDT, it may be of interest to a wide audience.

Abstract
The rapid emergence of drug-resistant bacteria has raised a great social concern together with the impetus for exploring advanced antibacterial ways. NIR-triggered antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (PDT) by lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP) as energy donor exhibits the advantages of high tissue penetration, broad antibacterial spectrum and less acquired resistance, but is still limited by its low efficacy. Now we designed a bio-inorganic nanohybrid and combined lysozyme (LYZ) with UCNP-PDT system to enhance the efficiency against resistant bacteria. Benefiting from the rapid adhesion to bacteria, intelligently bacteria-responsive LYZ release and synergistic LYZ-PDT effect, the nanoplatform achieves an exceptionally strong bactericidal capacity and conspicuous bacteriostasis on methicillin-resistant S. aureus. These findings pave the way for designing efficiently antibacterial nanomaterials and provide a new strategy for combating deep-tissue bacterial infection.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an approved and promising treatment approach that utilizes a photosensitizer (PS) to produce cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) through irradiation to achieve tumor noninvasive therapy. However, the limited singlet oxygen generation, the nonspecific uptake of PS in normal cells, and tumor hypoxia have become major challenges in conventional PDT, impeding its development and further clinical application. This review summarizes an overview of recent advances for the enhanced PDT. The development of PDT with innovative strategies, including molecular engineering and heavy atom-free photosensitizers is presented and future directions in this promising field are also provided. This review aims to highlight the recent advances in PDT and discuss the potential strategies that show promise in overcoming the challenges of PDT.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment with strong potential over well-established standard therapies in certain cases. Non-ionising radiation, localisation, possible repeated treatments, and stimulation of immunological response are some of the main beneficial features of PDT. Despite the great potential, its application remains challenging. Limited light penetration depth, non-ideal photosensitisers, complex dosimetry, and complicated implementations in the clinic are some limiting factors hindering the extended use of PDT. To surpass actual technological paradigms, radically new sources, light-based devices, advanced photosensitisers, measurement devices, and innovative application strategies are under extensive investigation. The main aim of this review is to highlight the advantages/pitfalls, technical challenges and opportunities of PDT, with a focus on technologies for light activation of photosensitisers, such as light sources, delivery devices, and systems. In this vein, a broad overview of the current status of superficial, interstitial, and deep PDT modalities-and a critical review of light sources and their effects on the PDT process-are presented. Insight into the technical advancements and remaining challenges of optical sources and light devices is provided from a physical and bioengineering perspective.

Abstract
We disclose an interesting concept for developing heavy atom-free chemiluminogenic photosensitizers. To accomplish this, conjugates 2 and 3, which are composed of boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) and 2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione units, are investigated. 2 and 3 are compared in terms of their photophysical properties, chemiluminescence responses, and singlet oxygen production. Strikingly, the results indicate that decoration of BODIPY with the 2,3-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione scaffold boosts the singlet oxygen generation. Furthermore, treatment of epidermoid laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 (Hep-2) cells with conjugates 2 and 3 results in efficient cellular internalization which ensures live- cell imaging of Hep-2 cells. Finally, it is noteworthy that in vitro cytotoxicity assays reveal that both 2 and 3 induce cytotoxicity when illuminated with red light. Thus, 2 and 3 represent heavy atom-free chemiluminogenic photosensitizers.

Abstract
Serving as representative reactive oxygen species (ROS), H2O2 and HOCl play crucial roles in biological metabolism and intercellular oxidation-reduction dynamic equilibrium. The overexpression of H2O2/HOCl may cause a variety of diseases, such as acute and chronic inflammation, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. A major question in H2O2/HOCl-based pathological diagnosis is knowing how H2O2/HOCl concentrations can be accurately regulated to initiate a diagnosis and subsequently guarantee therapeutic effects in the course of medical advances. Fluorescent probes, with their great spatial and temporal resolutions, have been used in diverse pathophysiological processes and developed rapidly in the last five years. We summarise in this review the optical properties of H2O2/HOCl-responsive fluorescent probes and focus on effective distribution and dynamic monitoring by using pathophysiological models.
