Abstract
Molecular oxygen, O2, has long provided a cornerstone for studies in chemistry, physics, and biology. Although the triplet ground state, O2(X3Σg-), has garnered much attention, the lowest excited electronic state, O2(a1Δg), commonly called singlet oxygen, has attracted appreciable interest, principally because of its unique chemical reactivity in systems ranging from the Earth's atmosphere to biological cells. Because O2(a1Δg) can be produced and deactivated in processes that involve light, the photophysics of O2(a1Δg) are equally important. Moreover, pathways for O2(a1Δg) deactivation that regenerate O2(X3Σg-), which address fundamental principles unto themselves, kinetically compete with the chemical reactions of O2(a1Δg) and, thus, have practical significance. Due to technological advances (e.g., lasers, optical detectors, microscopes), data acquired in the past ∼20 years have increased our understanding of O2(a1Δg) photophysics appreciably and facilitated both spatial and temporal control over the behavior of O2(a1Δg). One goal of this Review is to summarize recent developments that have broad ramifications, focusing on systems in which oxygen forms a contact complex with an organic molecule M (e.g., a liquid solvent). An important concept is the role played by the M+•O2-• charge-transfer state in both the formation and deactivation of O2(a1Δg).

Abstract
This review article is aimed at providing updated information on the contribution of immediate and delayed oxidative reactions to the photo-induced damage to cellular DNA/skin under exposure to UVB/UVA radiations and visible light. Low-intensity UVC and UVB radiations that operate predominantly through direct excitation of the nucleobases are very poor oxidizing agents giving rise to very low amounts of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine and DNA strand breaks with respect to the overwhelming bipyrimidine dimeric photoproducts. The importance of these two classes of oxidatively generated damage to DNA significantly increases together with a smaller contribution of oxidized pyrimidine bases upon UVA irradiation. This is rationalized in terms of sensitized photooxidation reactions predominantly mediated by singlet oxygen together with a small contribution of hydroxyl radical that appear to also be implicated in the photodynamic effects of the blue light component of visible light. Chemiexcitation-mediated formation of "dark" cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers in UVA-irradiated melanocytes is a recent major discovery that implicates in the initial stage, a delayed generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species giving rise to triplet excited carbonyl intermediate and possibly singlet oxygen. High-intensity UVC nanosecond laser radiation constitutes a suitable source of light to generate pyrimidine and purine radical cations in cellular DNA via efficient biphotonic ionization.

Front Vet Sci 2024; 11:1430861.

Abstract
Aging is a complex process influenced by internal and external factors. Oxidative stress damages DNA, leading to 8-hydroxy-2' deoxyguanosine formation (8-OHdG). Telomere shortening is considered a biomarker of aging and oxidative stress may enhance its attrition. The ability to manage and repair oxidative stress varies among species and life histories. Avian species, such as Psittacidae birds, exhibit exceptional lifespans despite their physiological characteristics that might suggest otherwise. This study investigates 8-OHdG levels in serum samples from long- and short-lived birds of the order Psittaciformes, examining their relationship with telomere length and antioxidant capacity based on lifespan strategies. Among 43 individuals analyzed 26 belonged to the "long-lived species" group and 17 belonged to the "short-lived species" one. Relative telomere length (rTL) was measured in DNA isolated from whole blood by qPCR, and oxidative stress markers, such as Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) and 8-OHdG, were determined by spectrophotometry in serum samples. Long-lived birds had longer rTL than short-lived ones [1.308 ± 0.11 vs. 0.565 ± 0.13, (p < 0.001)]. On the contrary, short-lived birds showed more DNA damage than their counterparts [3.847 ± 0.351 vs. 2.012 ± 0.308, respectively, (p < 0.001)]. Old birds had shorter rTL than young ones, for both longevity groups (p < 0.001). Although no correlation was found between 8-OHdG levels and age, nor 8-OHdG and telomere length, long-lived birds exhibited 75.42-unit increased TAC levels when increased 8-OHdG concentrations (p = 0.046). These findings highlight distinct patterns of telomere length and oxidative stress influenced by lifespan strategies among avian longevity groups.

Genes (Basel) 2024; 15:888.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of sunlight on the degradation of DNA samples taken from blood stains from different types of surfaces. A blood sample obtained from a single male donor was placed on seven different surfaces (galvanized sheet, iron rod, newspaper, white printer paper, glass, soil, and ceramic panel). Samples were kept, during a 4-week summer period, in a room, but next to an open window. Every 7 days, 1 mm2 of blood sample was collected from each substrate and stored in labeled tube for later analysis. DNA was extracted with the Chelex method, amplified using AmpFISTRTM MinifilerTM Plus Amplification Kit, and quantified using a QuantifilerTM Human DNA Quantification kit. After 7 days of sun exposure, the highest DNA concentration was determined to be from the sample from a galvanized sheet stain, followed by, in order of decreasing concentration, the ceramic panel, glass, newspaper, iron rod, and white printer paper surface. As expected, the DNA concentration from all samples decreased as the sunlight exposure time progressed. The results obtained after the amplification in the MiniFilerTM system were in correlation with the DNA concentrations measured by the qPCR method for all samples, except for the glass, soil, and white printer paper samples. The obtained data show that DNA degradation is correlated to the length of sunlight exposure and to the type of surface the samples are collected from. A negative qPCR result does not mean negative PCR amplification in the STR system; therefore, both methods should be applied when analyzing forensic samples collected from trace evidence.

Abstract
OH⋅-induced oxidation products of DNA nucleosides and nucleotides have been structurally characterized by collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry (CID-MS2 ) and Infrared Multiple Photon Dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy. CID-MS2 results have shown that the addition of one oxygen atom occurs on the nucleobase moiety. The gas-phase geometries of +16 mass increment products of 2'-deoxyadenosine (dA(O)H+ ), 2'-deoxyadenosine 5'-monophosphate (dAMP(O)H+ ), 2'-deoxycytidine (dC(O)H+ ), and 2'-deoxycytidine 5'-monophosphate (dCMP(O)H+ ) are extensively investigated by IRMPD spectroscopy and quantum-chemical calculations. We show that a carbonyl group is formed at the C8 position after oxidation of 2'-deoxyadenosine and its monophosphate derivative. For 2'-deoxycytidine and its monophosphate derivative, the oxygen atom is added to the C5 position to form a C-OH group. IRMPD spectroscopy has been employed for the first time to provide direct structural information on oxidative lesions in DNA model systems.

Abstract
The increasing burden of cutaneous wound infections with drug-resistant bacteria underlines the dire need for novel treatment approaches. Here, we report the preparation steps, characterization, and antibacterial efficacy of novel chitosan-coated Prussian blue nanoparticles loaded with the photosensitizer fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (CHPB-FD). With excellent photothermal and photodynamic properties, CHPB-FD nanoparticles can effectively eradicate both Gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa in vitro and in vivo. The antibacterial efficacy of CHPB-FD nanophotonic particles further increases in the presence of white light. Using a bacteria-infected cutaneous wound rat model, we demonstrate that CHPB-FD particles upregulate genes involved in tissue remodeling, promote collagen deposition, reduce unwanted inflammation, and enhance healing. The light-responsive CHPB-FD nanophotonic particles can, therefore, be potentially used as an economical and safe alternative to antibiotics for effectively decontaminating skin wounds and for disinfecting biomedical equipment and surfaces in hospitals and other places.

Abstract
Contrasting irradiation of senescent cells of the diatom Thalassiosira sp. in association with the bacterium Pseudomonas stutzeri showed the effect of intensity of irradiance on the transfer of singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) to bacteria attached to phytoplanktonic cells. Under low irradiances, 1 O2 is produced slowly, favors the oxidation of algal unsaturated lipids (photodynamic effect), and limits 1 O2 transfer to attached bacteria. However, high irradiances induce a rapid and intense production of 1 O2 , which diffuses out of the chloroplasts and easily reaches the attached bacteria, where it efficiently oxidizes their unsaturated membrane components. Analysis of numerous sinking particle samples collected in different regions of the Canadian Arctic showed that the photooxidation state of attached bacteria increased from ice-covered areas to open water, in agreement with in vitro results. Photooxidation of bacteria appeared to be particularly intense in sea ice, where the sympagic algae-bacteria association is maintained at relatively high irradiances for long periods of time.

Abstract
In our previous studies, Chlorin-e6 (Ce6) demonstrated a significant reduction of microorganisms' viability against multi-species biofilm related to periodontitis while irradiated with blue light. However, the conjugation of Ce6 and antimicrobial peptides, and the incorporation of this photosensitizer in a nanocarrier, is still poorly explored. We hypothesized that chlorin-e6 conjugated to the antimicrobial peptide LL-37 loaded nanoemulsion could inhibit a multi-species biofilm related to periodontitis during photodynamic therapy (PDT), the pre-treatment with hydrogen peroxide was also tested. The nanoemulsion (NE) incorporated with Ce6 was characterized regarding the physiochemical parameters. Images were obtained by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Later, the Ce6 and LL-37 incorporated in NE was submitted to UV-Vis analysis and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) assay. Finally, the combined formulation (Ce6+LL-37 in nanoemulsion) was tested against multi-species biofilm related to periodontitis. The formed nanoformulation was kinetically stable, optically transparent with a relatively small droplet diameter (134.2 unloaded and 146.9 loaded), and weak light scattering. The NE system did not impact the standard UV-VIS spectra of Ce6, and the ROS production was improved while Ce6 was incorporated in the NE. The combination of Ce6 and LL-37 in NE was effective to reduce the viability of all bacteria tested. The treatment with hydrogen peroxide previous to PDT significantly impacted bacterial viability. The current aPDT regimen was the best already tested against periodontal biofilm by our research team. Our results suggest that this combined protocol must be exploited for clinical applications in localized infections such as periodontal disease. - Nanoemulsion demonstrated to be an excellent nanocarrier for photodynamic application. - Chlorin-e6 incorporated in nanoemulsion showed great physicochemical and biophotonic parameters. - The combination of chlorin-e6 and LL-37 peptide in nanoemulsion is effective to eliminate periodontal pathogenic bacteria. - The treatment with hydrogen peroxide previous to PDT significantly impacted bacterial viability.

Abstract
Energy transfer to ground state triplet molecular oxygen results in the generation of singlet molecular oxygen (1O2), which has potent oxidizing ability. Irradiation of light, notably ultraviolet A, to a photosensitizing molecule results in the generation of 1O2, which is thought to play a role in causing skin damage and aging. It should also be noted that 1O2 is a dominant tumoricidal component that is generated during the photodynamic therapy (PDT). While type II photodynamic action generates not only 1O2 but also other reactive species, endoperoxides release pure 1O2 upon mild exposure to heat and, hence, are considered to be beneficial compounds for research purposes. Concerning target molecules, 1O2 preferentially reacts with unsaturated fatty acids to produce lipid peroxidation. Enzymes that contain a reactive cysteine group at the catalytic center are vulnerable to 1O2 exposure. Guanine base in nucleic acids is also susceptible to oxidative modification, and cells carrying DNA with oxidized guanine units may experience mutations. Since 1O2 is produced in various physiological reactions in addition to photodynamic reactions, overcoming technical challenges related to its detection and methods used for its generation would allow its potential functions in biological systems to be better understood.

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of an increasing number of diseases that causes irreversible impairment and loss of vision in the elderly. AMD occurs by oxidative stress-mediated apoptosis of retinal pigment epithelium cells. The onset of AMD may be positively correlated with the exposure to blue light. We screened food-derived carotenoids for cytoprotective action against blue light irradiation using human ARPE-19 retinal pigment epithelium cells. This study revealed that blue light irradiation triggered apoptosis and oxidative stress in all-trans-retinal (atRAL)-exposed ARPE-19 cells by generating singlet oxygen (1O2), leading to significant cell death. We found that astaxanthin, a potent anti-oxidative xanthophyll abundant in several marine organisms including microalgae, salmon, and shrimp, significantly suppresses blue light-induced apoptotic cell death of atRAL-exposed ARPE-19 cells by scavenging 1O2. Mechanistic studies using the blue-light irradiated cells also demonstrated that the cytoprotective effects of astaxanthin can be attributed to scavenging of 1O2 directly. Our results suggest the potential value of astaxanthin as a dietary strategy to prevent blue light-induced retinal degeneration including AMD.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species, including singlet oxygen, play an important role in the onset and progression of disease, as well as in aging. Singlet oxygen can be formed non-enzymatically by chemical, photochemical, and electron transfer reactions, or as a byproduct of endogenous enzymatic reactions in phagocytosis during inflammation. The imbalance of antioxidant enzymes and antioxidant networks with the generation of singlet oxygen increases oxidative stress, resulting in the undesirable oxidation and modification of biomolecules, such as proteins, DNA, and lipids. This review describes the molecular mechanisms of singlet oxygen production in vivo and methods for the evaluation of damage induced by singlet oxygen. The involvement of singlet oxygen in the pathogenesis of skin and eye diseases is also discussed from the biomolecular perspective. We also present our findings on lipid oxidation products derived from singlet oxygen-mediated oxidation in glaucoma, early diabetes patients, and a mouse model of bronchial asthma. Even in these diseases, oxidation products due to singlet oxygen have not been measured clinically. This review discusses their potential as biomarkers for diagnosis. Recent developments in singlet oxygen scavengers such as carotenoids, which can be utilized to prevent the onset and progression of disease, are also described.

Abstract
Shifting a triangle-square equilibrium in one direction is an important problem in supramolecular self-assembly. Reaction of a benzothiadiazole-based diimidazole donor with a cis-Pt(II) acceptor yielded an equilibrium mixture of a triangle ([C18H24N10O6S1Pt1]3≡ PtMCT) and a square ([C18H24N10O6S1Pt1]4≡ PtMCS). We report here the shifting of such equilibrium toward a triangle using a guest (pyrene aldehyde, G1). While both benzothiadiazole and pyrene aldehyde can form reactive oxygen species (ROS) in organic solvents, their therapeutic use in water is restricted due to aqueous insolubility. The enhanced water solubility of the benzothiadiazole unit and G1 by macrocycle formation and host-guest complexation, respectively, enabled enhanced ROS generation by the host-guest complex (G1' ⊂ PtMCT) in water (G1' = hydrated form of G1). The guest-encapsulated metallacycle (G1' ⊂ PtMCT) has shown synergistic antibacterial activity compared to the mixture of macrocycles upon white-light irradiation due to enhanced ROS generation. The mechanism for such enhanced activity was established by measuring the oxidative stress and relative internalization of PtMCs and G1' ⊂ PtMCT.

Abstract
In DNA, guanine is the most susceptible to oxidative damage by exogenously and endogenously produced electronically excited singlet oxygen (1O2). The reaction mechanism and the product outcome strongly depend on the nucleobase ionization state and structural context. Previously, exposure of a monomeric 9-methylguanine radical cation (9MG•+, a model guanosine compound) to 1O2 was found to result in the formation of an 8-peroxide as the initial product. The present work explores the 1O2 oxidation of 9MG•+ and its dehydrogenated neutral form [9MG - H]• within a Watson-Crick base pair consisting of one-electron-oxidized 9-methylguanine-1-methylcytosine [9MG·1MC]•+. Emphasis is placed on entangling the base pair structural context and intra-base pair proton transfer with and consequences thereof on the singlet oxygenation of guanine radical species. Electrospray ionization coupled with guided-ion beam tandem mass spectrometry was used to study the formation and reaction of guanine radical species in the gas phase. The 1O2 oxidation of both 9MG•+ and [9MG - H]• is exothermic and proceeds barrierlessly either in an isolated monomer or within a base pair. Single- and multi-referential theories were tested for treating spin contaminations and multi-configurations occurring in radical-1O2 interactions, and reaction potential energy surfaces were mapped out to support experimental findings. The work provides a comprehensive profile for the singlet oxygenation of guanine radicals in different charge states and in the absence and the presence of base pairing. All results point to an 8-peroxide as the major oxidation product in the experiment, and the oxidation becomes slightly more favorable in a neutral radical form. On the basis of a variety of reaction pathways and product profiles observed in the present and previous studies, the interplay between guanine structure, base pairing, and singlet oxygenation and its biological implications are discussed.

Abstract
Chromophores that generate singlet oxygen (1O2) in water are essential to developing noninvasive disease treatments using photodynamic therapy (PDT). A facile approach for formation of stable colloidal nanoparticles of 1O2 photosensitizers, which exhibit aggregation enhanced 1O2 generation in water toward applications as PDT agents, is reported. Chromophore encryption within a fuchsonarene macrocyclic scaffold insulates the photosensitizer from aggregation induced deactivation pathways, enabling a higher chromophore density than typical 1O2 generating nanoparticles. Aggregation enhanced 1O2 generation in water is observed, and variation in molecular structure allows for regulation of the physical properties of the nanoparticles which ultimately affects the 1O2 generation. In vitro activity and the ability of the particles to pass through the cell membrane into the cytoplasm is demonstrated using confocal fluorescence microscopy with HeLa cells. Photosensitizer encryption in rigid macrocycles, such as fuchsonarenes, offers new prospects for the production of biocompatible nanoarchitectures for applications involving 1O2 generation.

Abstract
UV-DDB, consisting of subunits DDB1 and DDB2, recognizes UV-induced photoproducts during global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER). We recently demonstrated a noncanonical role of UV-DDB in stimulating base excision repair (BER) which raised several questions about the timing of UV-DDB arrival at 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), and the dependency of UV-DDB on the recruitment of downstream BER and NER proteins. Using two different approaches to introduce 8-oxoG in cells, we show that DDB2 is recruited to 8-oxoG immediately after damage and colocalizes with 8-oxoG glycosylase (OGG1) at sites of repair. 8-oxoG removal and OGG1 recruitment is significantly reduced in the absence of DDB2. NER proteins, XPA and XPC, also accumulate at 8-oxoG. While XPC recruitment is dependent on DDB2, XPA recruitment is DDB2-independent and transcription-coupled. Finally, DDB2 accumulation at 8-oxoG induces local chromatin unfolding. We propose that DDB2-mediated chromatin decompaction facilitates the recruitment of downstream BER proteins to 8-oxoG lesions. Nucleotide excision repair proteins are involved in the repair of UV-induced DNA damage. Here, the authors show that NER proteins, DDB2, XPC, and XPA play a vital role in the 8-oxoguanine repair by coordinating with base excision repair protein OGG1.

Abstract
The present review aims at highlighting recent advances in the development of photocatalysts devoted to cancer therapy applications. We pay especial attention to the engineering aspects of different nanomaterials including inorganic semiconductors, organic-based nanostructures, noble metal-based systems or synergistic hybrid heterostructures. Furthermore, we also explore and correlate structural and optical properties with their photocatalytic capability to successfully performing in cancer-related therapies. We have made an especial emphasis to introduce current alternatives to organic photosensitizers (PSs) in photodynamic therapy (PDT), where the effective generation of reactive oxidative species (ROS) is pivotal to boost the efficacy of the treatment. We also overview current efforts in other photocatalytic strategies to tackle cancer based on photothermal treatment, starvation therapy, oxidative stress unbalance via glutathione (GSH) depletion, biorthogonal catalysis or local relief of hypoxic conditions in tumor microenvironments (TME).

Abstract
The reactivity of singlet oxygen with DNA constituents and in particular with the guanine base has been studied during more than four decades but the exact mechanisms by which such a reactive oxygen species reacts with DNA is still a matter of debate. In this review article, a summary of the data that were obtained from several laboratories and using complementary experimental and theoretical approaches are presented. Reaction mechanisms of 1 O2 with guanine and its oxidation product 8-oxo7,8-dihydroguanine are presented both at the nucleoside level and when the base is inserted into DNA since significant differences have been observed. Efforts have been made to propose tentative mechanisms to explain the conflicting results that were sometimes reported and hypotheses have been put forward to tentatively explain still contradictory observations.

Abstract
Due to the emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria, the development of new antibiotics is required. We introduce here asymmetrically modified positively charged bis(methylpyridinium) anthracenes as a novel tunable scaffold, in which the two positive charges can be placed at a defined distance and angle. Our structure-activity relationship reveals that coupling the methylpyridiniums with alkynyl linkers to the central anthracene unit yields antibacterial compounds against a wide range of bacteria, including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Also, different mycobacteria, such as Mycobacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, are efficiently targeted by these compounds. The antibacterial activity depends on the number of alkynyl linkers and consequently also on the distance of the positive charges in the rigid anthracene scaffold. Additionally, the formation of an anthracene endoperoxide further increases the antibacterial activity, likely due to the release of toxic singlet oxygen that converts the endoperoxide back to the antibacterial anthracene scaffold with half-lives of several hours.

Abstract
Photosensitization reactions have been demonstrated to be largely responsible for the deleterious biological effects of UV and visible radiation, as well as for the curative actions of photomedicine. A large number of endogenous and exogenous photosensitizers, biological targets and mechanisms have been reported in the past few decades. Evolving from the original definitions of the type I and type II photosensitized oxidations, we now provide physicochemical frameworks, classifications and key examples of these mechanisms in order to organize, interpret and understand the vast information available in the literature and the new reports, which are in vigorous growth. This review surveys in an extended manner all identified photosensitization mechanisms of the major biomolecule groups such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids bridging the gap with the subsequent biological processes. Also described are the effects of photosensitization in cells in which UVA and UVB irradiation triggers enzyme activation with the subsequent delayed generation of superoxide anion radical and nitric oxide. Definitions of photosensitized reactions are identified in biomolecules with key insights into cells and tissues.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of femtosecond laser irradiation on the growth kinetics of Staphylococcus aureus. In order to improve laser-based antimicrobial therapy and develop a clinically viable modality, various laser parameters such as laser light wavelength, laser power, exposure time, and energy density were studied. The INSPIRE HF100 laser system (Spectra Physics) provided the femtosecond laser light, which was pumped by a mode-locked femtosecond Ti: sapphire laser MAI TAI HP (Spectra Physics). The survival of the bacterial cells was monitored after irradiation by determination of growth rate using optical density, which is a rapid, simple, and reliable method. The growth rate of laser-exposed cultures was compared to control cultures. Fifteen minutes of exposure to femtosecond laser radiation with a wavelength of 390 nm and 400 nm at an average power of 50 mW was enough to significantly reduce bacterial viability, with a lag in the growth phase of 5 h longer than the control culture (P < 0.0001 by ANOVA and Tukey test).

Abstract
7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most common and mutagenic oxidative DNA damages induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Since ROS is mainly produced in the inner membranes of the mitochondria, these organelles and especially the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) contained therein are particularly affected by this damage. Insufficient elimination of 8-oxoG can lead to mutations and thus to severe mitochondrial dysfunctions. To eliminate 8-oxoG, the human body uses the enzyme 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (OGG1), which is the main antagonist to oxidative damage to DNA. However, previous work suggests that the activity of the human OGG1 (hOGG1) decreases with age, leading to an age-related accumulation of 8-oxoG. A better understanding of the exact mechanisms of hOGG1 could lead to the discovery of new targets and thus be of great importance for the development of preventive therapies. Because of this, we developed a real-time base excision repair assay with a specially designed double-stranded reporter oligonucleotides to measure the activity of hOGG1 in lysates of isolated mitochondria. This system presented here differs from the classical assays, in which an endpoint determination is performed via a denaturing acrylamide gel, by the possibility to measure the hOGG1 activity in real-time. In addition, to determine the activity of each enzymatic step (N-glycosylase and AP-lyase activity) of this bifunctional enzyme, a melting curve analysis can also be performed. After isolation of mitochondria from human fibroblasts using various centrifugation steps, they are lysed and then incubated with specially designed reporter oligonucleotides. The subsequent measurement of hOGG1 activity is performed in a conventional real-time PCR system.

Tanshinone IIA (TanIIA) has multiple biological functions and already been clinically used to treat many cardiovascular diseases. TanIIA is a photoactive molecule and can be excited by light to generate 3 TanIIA*. Generation of 3 TanIIA* by TanIIA photosensitization indicates that TanIIA may serve as a photosensitizer to bring photodynamic damage to organisms. Therefore, human choroidal melanoma MUM-2B cell was chosen as a superficial tumor model and the photodynamic effect of TanIIA on tumor cells was evaluated in this study. The results showed that TanIIA photosensitization could generate singlet oxygen in noncellular system. MTT, clone formation and wound-healing assays showed that the survival and migration of MUM-2B cells could be efficiently inhibited by TanIIA photosensitization. And then, laser confocal microscope and flow cytometry were used to try to elucidate related mechanism. It was found that TanIIA could pass through cellular membrane and preferably accumulate in nucleus. TanIIA photosensitization could efficiently induce cell apoptosis and necrosis, increase intracellular ROS levels, decrease mitochondria membrane potential, and lead to cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase. Our findings indicate that TanIIA photosensitization can exert remarkable toxicity on choroidal melanoma cells.

Abstract
Laboratory investigations were conducted to evaluate the effect of ultraviolet radiation components and solar radiation exposure as a function of time on the degradation of whole human blood DNA from the standpoint of forensic analysis. Ten μL of whole human male blood samples were exposed to UV-A, UV-B, UV-C, and solar radiation at 20 min intervals up to 120 min. Allele frequencies of 16 short tandem repeat (STR) markers were monitored by employing current forensic typing DNA techniques. The STR markers were grouped into high, medium, and low molecular weight categories. Results revealed that even 20 min exposure to 4.89 eV UV-C photons (ʎ = 254 nm) with radiation intensity of 1200 μW/cm2 would degrade whole human male blood DNA samples significantly, making them unfit for human identification due to the breakdown of high molecular weight STRs. Exposure of blood samples to 4.11 eV UV-B photons (ʎ = 302 nm) with radiation intensity of 900 μW/cm2 resulted in complete degradation of high molecular weight STRs after 60 min. Partial breakdown of medium and low molecular weight STRs started after 80 min exposure. The degradation index (DI) values appear to show that the degradation of the DNA template molecule was relatively less in the low molecular weight DNA fragments as compared with high molecular weight DNA fragments. This finding indicates that genetic profiles obtained from whole human male blood exposed to this radiation for 60 min will give inconclusive results. Samples exposed up to 120 min to 3.40 eV UV-A photons (ʎ = 365 nm) and 3.10-3.94 eV photons of solar radiation did not appear to produce appreciable degradation in any of three molecular weight STRs in the whole human blood DNA samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (A-PDT), is one of the adjunctive therapies developed to improve the effectiveness of root canal disinfection.. The aim of this study was to analyze the antimicrobial effect of PDT on intracanal biofilm. METHODS Two reviewers conducted a literature search in PubMed, MEDLINE, Lilacs, SciELO, EMBASE and Google Scholar using the following search strategy: photochemotherapy "[Mesh] OR (photodynamic therapy) AND" dental plaque "[Mesh] OR (dental biofilm) AND (root canal). The following data were collected: publication year, author's name, study site, type of study, participant number, type of photosensitizer, type of laser, method of data collection, application time and results. Study quality was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS). RESULTS After selection based on title, abstract and full text, 27 studies were included in this systematic review. PDT reduced bacterial viability in most studies when combined with conventional endodontic techniques. CONCLUSION PDT reduced bacterial counts in most studies, especially when used as an adjunct to the conventional endodontic technique to treat refractory infection. However, PDT effects on in vitro bacterial biofilm were not accurately quantified because of the numerous biases in the studies reviewed.

Abstract
It is known that double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) turns into a liquid crystalline phase by the addition of a high concentration of polymer with salt. SYBR Green I (SG) is a well-known sensitive fluorescent stain for dsDNA, and is intercalated in liquid crystalline DNA. Formation of the liquid crystalline dsDNA-SG complex has been confirmed by CD spectral measurements, fluorescence spectral measurements and confocal fluorescence microscopy. SG in dsDNA was also used as a singlet oxygen generator. We conducted photoirradiation experiments using three kinds of 42-mer oligonucleotides with SG. The amount of guanine decomposition by selective irradiation of SG was analyzed using HPLC after digestion of dsDNA in each sample solution. We found that singlet oxygen produced in liquid crystalline DNA promoted guanine damage much more efficiently than in homogeneous solution.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen sensitization involving a class of hemiquinonoid-substituted resorcinarenes prepared from the corresponding 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl-substituted resorcinarenes is reported. Based on variation in the molecular structures, quantum yields comparable with that of the well-known photosensitizing compound meso-tetraphenylporphyrin were obtained for the octabenzyloxy-substituted double hemiquinonoid resorcinarene reported herein. The following classes of compounds were studied: benzyloxy-substituted resorcinarenes, acetyloxy-substituted resorcinarenes and acetyloxy-substituted pyrogallarenes. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses revealed structural variations in the compounds with conformation (i.e., rctt, rccc, rcct) having some influence on the identity of hemiquinonoid product available. Multiplicity of hemiquinonoid group affects singlet oxygen quantum yield with those doubly substituted being more active than those containing a single hemiquinone. Compounds reported here lacking hemiquinonoid groups are inactive as photosensitizers. The term 'fuchsonarene' (fuchson + arene of resorcinarene) is proposed for use to classify the compounds.

Abstract
It is well-known that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can escape to intracellular or extracellular compartments under different stress conditions, yet understanding their escape mechanisms remains a challenge. Although Bax/Bak pores and VDAC oligomers are the strongest possibilities, other mechanisms may be involved. For example, mitochondria permeability transition, altered mitophagy, and mitochondrial dynamics are associated with intracellular mtDNA escape, while extracellular traps and extracellular vesicles can participate in extracellular mtDNA escape. The evidence suggests that mtDNA escape is a complex event with more than one mechanism involved. In addition, once the mtDNA is outside the mitochondria, the effects can be complex. Different danger signal sensors recognize the mtDNA as a damage-associated molecular pattern, triggering an innate immune inflammatory response that can be observed in multiple metabolic diseases characterized by chronic inflammation, including autoimmune diseases, diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disorders. For these reasons, we will review the most recent evidence regarding mtDNA escape mechanisms and their impact on different metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is a significant source of biodamage in living organisms. 1O2 is a highly reactive excited electronic-state spin-configuration of molecular oxygen and is usually prepared via organic molecule sensitization. Despite the wealth of experimental studies on the 1O2-induced oxidation of several bio-organic molecules, the detailed mechanism of the oxidation process is largely unknown. Using high-level quantum chemical methods, we compute the potential energy profiles of the various electronic states associated with the [4 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction of O2 with a class of model peptide precursors that are based on derivatives of oxazole and thiazole. Experiments have shown that such oxazole/thiazole-based model peptides show a favorable reaction with 1O2. Upon increasing the molecular complexity, the bimolecular rate constant decreases and is attributed to the π-perturbing effects of the substituent of the oxazole/thiazole moiety. Our theoretical predictions are in excellent agreement with the experimental measurements and reveal a deep insight into the myriad electronic states that may hinder/promote the reaction of a given bio-organic molecule with 1O2.

Abstract
We report a kinetics and mechanistic study on the 1O2 oxidation of 9-methylguanine (9MG) and the cross-linking of the oxidized intermediate 2-amino-9-methyl-9H-purine-6,8-dione (9MOGOX) with Nα-acetyl-lysine-methyl ester (abbreviated as LysNH2) in aqueous solutions of different pH. Experimental measurements include the determination of product branching ratios and reaction kinetics using mass spectrometry and absorption spectroscopy, and the characterization of product structures by employing collision-induced dissociation. Strong pH dependence was revealed for both 9MG oxidation and the addition of nucleophiles (water and LysNH2) at the C5 position of 9MOGOX. The 1O2 oxidation rate constant of 9MG was determined to be 3.6 × 107 M-1·s-1 at pH 10.0 and 0.3 × 107 M-1·s-1 at pH 7.0, both of which were measured in the presence of 15 mM LysNH2. The ωB97XD density functional theory coupled with various basis sets and the SMD implicit solvation model was used to explore the reaction potential energy surfaces for the 1O2 oxidation of 9MG and the formation of C5-water and C5-LysNH2 adducts of 9MOGOX. Computational results have shed light on reaction pathways and product structures for the different ionization states of the reactants. The present work has confirmed that the initial 1O2 addition represents the rate-limiting step for the oxidative transformations of 9MG. All of the downstream steps are exothermic with respect to the starting reactants. The C5-cross-linking of 9MOGOX with LysNH2 significantly suppressed the formation of spiroiminodihydantoin (9MSp) resulting from the C5-water addition. The latter became dominant only at the low concentration (∼1 mM) of LysNH2.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is a promising approach for fighting bacterial infections because it can induce few side effects, develop no drug resistance, and realize precise treatment. However, most photosensitizers (PSs) have the disadvantages of poor water-solubility, severe self-quenching, and potential toxicity. Here, the cationic polymer polyethyleneimine (PEI) was used to prepare a cholesterol- and chlorin e6 (Ce6, a common PS)-conjugated compound via the carboxyl-amine reaction or the acyl chloride-amine reaction (abbreviated as Chol-PEI-Ce6). The as-prepared Chol-PEI-Ce6 molecules can self-assemble into close-to-spherical nanoparticles (NPs) with an average diameter of ∼15 nm and can bind to the bacterial surfaces via the synergistic hydrophobic insertion of the cholesterol moieties and electrostatic interaction between the cationic amine groups of PEI and the bacterial surfaces. Upon light irradiation, the NPs can effectively inactivate both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Besides, the interaction between Chol-PEI-Ce6 NPs and bacteria markedly enhances the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species after light irradiation, which may account for the excellent antibacterial performance of the NPs. More importantly, the NPs possess negligible dark cytotoxicity and good hemocompatibility. Therefore, the present work may have strong implications for developing novel antibacterial agents to fight against bacterial infections.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance has become one of the major threats to global health. Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) develops little antibiotic resistance; thus, it becomes a promising strategy in the control of bacterial infection. During a PDI process, light-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage the membrane components, leading to the membrane rupture and bacteria death. Due to the short half-life and reaction radius of ROS, achieving the cell-membrane intercalation of photosensitizers is a key challenge for PDI of bacteria. In this work, a tetraphenylethylene-based discrete organoplatinum(II) metallacycle (1) acts as a photosensitizer with aggregation-induced emission. It self-assembles with a transacting activator of transduction (TAT) peptide-decorated virus coat protein (2) through electrostatic interactions. This assembly (3) exhibits both ROS generation and strong membrane-intercalating ability, resulting in significantly enhanced PDI efficiency against bacteria. By intercalating in the bacterial cell membrane or entering the bacteria, assembly 3 decreases the survival rate of gram-negative Escherichia coli to nearly zero and that of gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus to ∼30% upon light irradiation. This study has wide implications from the generation of multifunctional nanomaterials to the control of bacterial infection, especially for gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
Telomeres are essential for genome stability. Oxidative stress caused by excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) accelerates telomere shortening. Although telomeres are hypersensitive to ROS-mediated 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) formation, the biological effect of this common lesion at telomeres is poorly understood because ROS have pleiotropic effects. Here we developed a chemoptogenetic tool that selectively produces 8-oxoG only at telomeres. Acute telomeric 8-oxoG formation increased telomere fragility in cells lacking OGG1, the enzyme that removes 8-oxoG, but did not compromise cell survival. However, chronic telomeric 8-oxoG induction over time shortens telomeres and impairs cell growth. Accumulation of telomeric 8-oxoG in chronically exposed OGG1-deficient cells triggers replication stress, as evidenced by mitotic DNA synthesis at telomeres, and significantly increases telomere losses. These losses generate chromosome fusions, leading to chromatin bridges and micronucleus formation upon cell division. By confining base damage to the telomeres, we show that telomeric 8-oxoG accumulation directly drives telomere crisis.

Abstract
It is well known that biological systems, such as microorganisms, plants, and animals, including human beings, form spontaneous electronically excited species through oxidative metabolic processes. Though the mechanism responsible for the formation of electronically excited species is still not clearly understood, several lines of evidence suggest that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the formation of electronically excited species. This review attempts to describe the role of ROS in the formation of electronically excited species during oxidative metabolic processes. Briefly, the oxidation of biomolecules, such as lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids by ROS initiates a cascade of reactions that leads to the formation of triplet excited carbonyls formed by the decomposition of cyclic (1,2-dioxetane) and linear (tetroxide) high-energy intermediates. When chromophores are in proximity to triplet excited carbonyls, the triplet-singlet and triplet-triplet energy transfers from triplet excited carbonyls to chromophores result in the formation of singlet and triplet excited chromophores, respectively. Alternatively, when molecular oxygen is present, the triplet-singlet energy transfer from triplet excited carbonyls to molecular oxygen initiates the formation of singlet oxygen. Understanding the mechanism of the formation of electronically excited species allows us to use electronically excited species as a marker for oxidative metabolic processes in cells.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is an excited state of molecular oxygen with an electron spin shift in the molecular orbitals, which is extremely unstable and highly reactive. In plants, 1O2 is primarily generated as a byproduct of photosynthesis in the photosystem II reaction center (PSII RC) and the light-harvesting antenna complex (LHC) in the grana core (GC). This occurs upon the absorption of light energy when the excited chlorophyll molecules in the PSII transfer the excess energy to molecular oxygen, thereby generating 1O2. As a potent oxidant, 1O2 promotes oxidative damage. However, at sub-lethal levels, it initiates chloroplast-to-nucleus retrograde signaling to contribute to plant stress responses, including acclimation and cell death. The thylakoid membranes comprise two spatially separated 1O2 sensors: β-carotene localized in the PSII RC in the GC and the nuclear-encoded chloroplast protein EXECUTER1 (EX1) residing in the non-appressed grana margin (GM). Finding EX1 in the GM suggests the existence of an additional source of 1O2 in the GM and the presence of two distinct 1O2-signaling pathways. In this review, we mainly discuss the genesis and impact of 1O2 in plant physiology.

Abstract
A fast and simple method for screening of ssDNA-breaking photosensitizers was developed using graphene oxide. The ultraviolet light-induced DNA breaks are one of the most harmful DNA damages and cause skin cancer if they are left unrepaired. Since graphene oxide showed relatively strong affinity to the broken DNA than intact DNA, and it quenched fluorescence of the DNA labeling dye effectively, the degree of ultraviolet light-induced broken DNAs could be analyzed by measuring decreased fluorescence after mixing the DNA with graphene oxide. The decrease of fluorescence was highly correlated with the ultraviolet light-irradiating time and concentration of the added drugs. As a result, it was possible to evaluate the efficacy of different ssDNA-breaking photosensitizers in a high-throughput manner. However, conventional methods for the damaged-DNA analysis are time-consuming and require additional manipulations such as purification, radio-labeling, enzymatic digestion, or chemical modification of DNA. The phototoxicity of five drugs such as benzophenone, ketoprofen, indomethacin, naproxen, and norfloxacin was tested using the proposed method. The ssDNA-breaking efficiency of the drugs was well matched with reported efficiency of the tested drugs. In contrast to naked gold nanoparticles, graphene oxide is stably dispersed in the presence of salt, the phototoxicity of the drugs could be successfully tested at a physiological condition using the graphene oxide based method.

Abstract
We report an experimental and computational study on the 1 O2 oxidation of gas-phase deprotonated guanine-cytosine base pair [G ⋅ C-H]- that is composed of 9HG ⋅ [C-H]- and 7HG ⋅ [C-H]- (pairing 9H- or 7H-guanine with N1-deprotonated cytosine), and 9HG ⋅ [C-H]- _PT and 7HG ⋅ [C-H]- _PT (formed by intra-base-pair proton transfer from the N1 of guanine to the N3 of [C-H]- ). The conformer-averaged reaction product ions and cross section were measured over a center-of-mass collision energy range from 0.1 to 0.5 eV using a guided-ion-beam tandem mass spectrometer. To explore conformation-specific reactivity, collision dynamics of 1 O2 with each of the four [G ⋅ C-H]- conformers was simulated at B3LYP/6-31G(d). Trajectories showed that the 1 O2 oxidation of the base pair entangles with intra-base-pair proton transfer, and prefers to occur in a collision when the base pair adopts a proton-transferred structure; trajectories also indicate that the 9HG-containing base pair favors stepwise formation of 4,8-endoperoxide of guanine, whereas the 7HG-containing base pair prefers concerted formation of guanine 5,8-endoperoxide. Using trajectory results as a guide, potential energy surfaces (PESs) along all possible reaction pathways were established using the approximately spin-projected ωB97XD/6-311++G(d,p)//B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) method. PESs have not only rationalized trajectory findings but provided more accurate energetics and indicated that the proton-transferred base-pair conformers have lower activation barriers for oxidation than their non-proton-transferred counterparts.

Abstract
The epidermis undergoes constant renewal during its lifetime. This is possible due to a special population of keratinocyte stem cells (KSCs) located at the basal layer. These cells are surrounded by their direct progeny, keratinocyte progenitors or transient amplifying cells (TAs), which arise from cell division. Skin is exposed every day to sun radiation; in particular, UVA radiation penetrates through the epidermis and induces damage to KSCs and TAs. Although keratinocytes in the basal layer are the most likely skin carcinomas and/or photoaging cells of origin, surprisingly few studies have addressed the specific responses of these cells to UV radiation. In this study, we showed for the first time that keratinocyte stem cells were more resistant to UVA irradiation than their direct progeny, transient amplifying cells. Using both the MTT assay and clonogenic assay, we found that KSCs were more photo-resistant compared to TAs after exposure to different doses of UVA (from 0 to 50 J/cm2). Moreover, KSCs had a greater ability to reconstruct human epidermis (RHE) after UVA exposure compared with TAs. Finally, investigations of DNA repair using the comet assay showed that DNA single-strand breaks and thymine dimers were repaired quicker and more efficiently in KSCs compared with TAs. In a previous work, we showed that the same stem cell population was more resistant to ionizing radiation, another carcinogenic agent. Collectively, our results combined with other observations demonstrate that keratinocyte stem cells, which are responsible for epidermal renewal throughout life, are equipped with an efficient arsenal against several genotoxic agents. Our future work will try to identify the factors or signaling pathways that are responsible for this differential photo-sensitivity and DNA repair capacity between KSCs and TAs.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) is a prime cause of photo-damage of the photosynthetic apparatus. The chlorophyll molecules in the photosystem II reaction center and in the light-harvesting antenna complex are major sources of 1 O2 generation. It has been thought that the generation of 1 O2 mainly takes place in the appressed regions of the thylakoid membranes, namely, the grana core, where most of the active photosystem II complexes are localized. Apart from being a toxic molecule, new evidence suggests that 1 O2 significantly contributes to chloroplast-to-nucleus retrograde signalling that primes acclimation and cell death responses. Interestingly, recent studies reveal that chloroplasts operate two distinct 1 O2 -triggered retrograde signalling pathways in which β-carotene and a nuclear-encoded chloroplast protein EXECUTER1 play essential roles as signalling mediators. The coexistence of these mediators raises several questions: their crosstalk, source(s) of 1 O2 , downstream signalling components, and the perception and reaction mechanism of these mediators towards 1 O2 . In this review, we mainly discuss the molecular genetic basis of the mode of action of these two putative 1 O2 sensors and their corresponding retrograde signalling pathways. In addition, we also propose the possible existence of an alternative source of 1 O2 , which is spatially and functionally separated from the grana core.

Abstract
Exocyclic DNA adducts are considered as potential tools for the study of oxidative stress-related diseases, but an important aspect is their chemical reactivity towards oxidant species. We report here the oxidation of 1-N2-etheno-2'-deoxyguanosine (1,N2-εdGuo) by singlet molecular oxygen (1O2) generated by a non-ionic water-soluble endoperoxide [N,N'-di(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-1,4-naphthalenedipropanamide endoperoxide (DHPNO2)] and its corresponding oxygen isotopically labeled [18O]-[N,N'-di(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)-1,4- naphthalenedipropanamide endoperoxide (DHPN18O2)], and by photosensitization with two different photosensitizers [methylene blue (MB) and Rose Bengal (RB)]. Products detection and characterization were achieved using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to ultraviolet and electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. We found that dGuo is regenerated via reaction of 1O2 with the ε-linkage, and we propose a dioxetane as an intermediate, which cleaves and loses the aldehyde groups as formate residues, or alternatively, it generates a 1,2-ethanediol adduct. We also report herein the quenching rate constants of 1O2 by 1,N2-εdGuo and other etheno modified nucleosides. The rate constant (kt) values obtained for etheno nucleosides are comparable to the kt of dGuo. From these results, we suggest a possible role of 1O2 in the cleanup of etheno adducts by regenerating the normal base.

Abstract
Red grape (Vitis vinifera L.) flavonoids including flavan-3-ols (eg, catechin and epicatechin), flavonols (eg, quercetin) and anthocyanins (eg, malvidin) exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. In the skin they also have a photoprotective action, and their effects have been extensively investigated in keratinocytes, melanocytes and fibroblasts. Despite their known effects also on blood vasculature, little is known on their activities on human dermal blood endothelial cells (HDBECs), which are critically involved in skin homeostasis as well as in the pathogenesis of neoplastic and inflammatory skin diseases. We sought to study the biological effects of selected red grape flavonoids in preventing the consequences of ultraviolet (UV)-A irradiation in vitro. Our results show that red grape flavonoids prevent UV-A-induced sICAM-1 release in HDBECs, suggesting that this cell type could represent an additional target of the anti-inflammatory activity of flavonoids. In addition, flavonoids effectively inhibited UV-A-induced synthesis of collagen type III at both RNA and protein level, indicating that dermal blood microvasculature could be actively involved in ECM remodelling as a consequence of skin photo-ageing, and that this can be prevented by red grape flavonoids.

Visible light-induced biocidal activities and mechanistic study of neutral porphyrin derivatives against S. aureus and E. coli. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY B-BIOLOGY 2018; 185:199-205. [PMID: 29957499 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2018.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2018] [Revised: 05/27/2018] [Accepted: 06/12/2018] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Positive charged porphyrins have long been regarded as effective biocidal agents, however neutral porphyrins have rarely been studied in their ability photoinactivating microbials, and the structure-activity relationship such as correlation of electronic effect and biocidal activity of porphyrins still remains unclear. Herein, four neutral porphyrins with various electronic effects were selected to undergo light-induced biocidal processes. It turned out that the TPPOH and TPPNH2 with electron-donating groups NH2 and OH, respectively, exhibited much more powerful light-induced biocidal activities against E. coli and S. aureus than TPP and TPPNO2 with electron-withdrawing group NO2. This phenomenon suggested that neutral porphyrins may be treated as a new class of biocidal agents and functional groups with various electronic effects on porphyrins can dramatically affect porphyrins' light-induced biocidal activities. Mechanistic studies demonstrate that despite a better light-induced antibacterial ability of TPPOH, its singlet oxygen generation efficacy is a little lower than that of TPPNH2, together with charge characteristics and lipophilicity, it is clear that (1) the oxidative species singlet oxygen and ROS played the key role in the photo-activated antimicrobial processes of porphyrins, and (2) higher singlet oxygen or ROS yields of TPPOH and TPPNH2 may originate from their structural characteristics, namely electron-donating groups OH or NH2, and (3) a synergistic effect of all other factors including the electrostatic and hydrophobic effects must involve in the process and cooperatively determine their biocidal activities.

Abstract
The binding modes of a pyrene-porphyrin dyad, (1-pyrenyl)-tris(N-methyl-p-pyridino)porphyrin (PyTMpyP), to various DNAs (calf thymus DNA (Ct-DNA), poly[d(G-C)2], and poly[d(A-T)2]) have been investigated using circular dichroism and linear dichroism measurements. Based on the polarization spectroscopic results, it can be shown that the pyrenyl and porphryin planes are skewed to a large extent for PyTMPyP in an aqueous environment and in the binding site of poly[d(G-C)2]. In this complex, a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process between the pyrenyl and porphyrin moieties occurs. On the other hand, PET was not observed in the PyTMPyP-poly[d(A-T)2] complex, whereas the fluorescence intensity of TMPyP was enhanced. The molecular planes of the pyrene and porphyrin moieties are almost parallel in the poly[d(A-T)2] and Ct-DNA adducts. Moreover, the generation of 1O2 species occurs only for the PyTMPyP-Ct-DNA and PyTMPyP-poly[d(A-T)2] complexes. We discuss the photophysical properties of PyTMPyP which are attributed to the binding patterns and the sequence of DNA bases.
