Abstract
In this study, we report antibacterial activity of metalloporphyrins; 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (para-X phenyl)porphyrinato M (II) [where X = H, NH2 and COOMe for M = Cu and X = COOH and OMe for M = Co]. The activity study of the as-synthesized metalloporphyrins toward two Gram-positive (S. aureus and S. pyogenes) and two Gram-negative (E. coli and K. pneumoniae) bacteria showed a promising inhibitory activity. Among the complexes under study, the highest antibacterial activity is observed for 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (p-carboxyphenyl)porphyrinato cobalt (II), with inhibition zone of 16.5 mm against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). This activity could be attributed to the high binding ability of COOH group to cellular components, membranes, proteins, and DNA as well as the lipophilicity of the complex. Moreover, consistent with literature report, the study revealed that metalloporphyrins with electron withdrawing group at para-positions have better antibacterial activity than metalloporphyrin which possess electron donating group at para position.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a well-established treatment option in the treatment of certain cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions. Though best-known for its application in tumor therapy, historically the photodynamic effect was first demonstrated against bacteria at the beginning of the 20th century. Today, in light of spreading antibiotic resistance and the rise of new infections, this photodynamic inactivation (PDI) of microbes, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses, is gaining considerable attention. This review focuses on the PDI of viruses as an alternative treatment in antiviral therapy, but also as a means of viral decontamination, covering mainly the literature of the last decade. The PDI of viruses shares the general action mechanism of photodynamic applications: the irradiation of a dye with light and the subsequent generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which are the effective phototoxic agents damaging virus targets by reacting with viral nucleic acids, lipids and proteins. Interestingly, a light-independent antiviral activity has also been found for some of these dyes. This review covers the compound classes employed in the PDI of viruses and their various areas of use. In the medical area, currently two fields stand out in which the PDI of viruses has found broader application: the purification of blood products and the treatment of human papilloma virus manifestations. However, the PDI of viruses has also found interest in such diverse areas as water and surface decontamination, and biosafety.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) combines a photosensitiser, light and molecular oxygen to induce oxidative stress that can be used to kill pathogens, cancer cells and other highly proliferative cells. There is a growing number of clinically approved photosensitisers and applications of PDT, whose main advantages include the possibility of selective targeting, localised action and stimulation of the immune responses. Further improvements and broader use of PDT could be accomplished by designing new photosensitisers with increased selectivity and bioavailability. Porphyrin-based photosensitisers with amphiphilic properties, bearing one or more positive charges, are an effective tool in PDT against cancers, microbial infections and, most recently, autoimmune skin disorders. The aim of the review is to present some of the recent examples of the applications and research that employ this specific group of photosensitisers. Furthermore, we will highlight the link between their structural characteristics and PDT efficiency, which will be helpful as guidelines for rational design and evaluation of new PSs.

Abstract
The ground- and excited-state interactions of Pt(ii) meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (PtTMPyP4) with polynucleotides [poly(dG-dC)]2 and [poly(dA-dT)]2 have been investigated using UV/visible, circular dichroism, and steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy. PtTMPyP4 intercalates into [poly(dG-dC)]2 with K∼ 10(6) M(-1). When bound to [poly(dG-dC)]2 in aerated solution there is a six-fold emission enhancement with 18 nm red-shift in emission maximum. Emission lifetimes are biexponential. In the presence of [poly(dA-dT)]2 at least two distinct groove-binding modes are observed, depending on the binding ratio. In [poly(dA-dT)]2 the emission intensity increases by a maximum factor of 17 with no shift in the emission spectrum. Three exponentials were required for lifetime fitting. The lower extent of emission enhancement in the presence of [poly(dG-dC)]2 suggests that a slow electron transfer may take place to guanine, which is significantly less efficient than that previously observed for PtTMPyP4 in the presence of guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP). The results are compared to those previously recorded with free base H2TMPyP4.

Abstract
Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) has been used to inactivate microorganisms through the use of photosensitizers. The inactivation of mammalian viruses and bacteriophages by photosensitization has been applied with success since the first decades of the last century. Due to the fact that mammalian viruses are known to pose a threat to public health and that bacteriophages are frequently used as models of mammalian viruses, it is important to know and understand the mechanisms and photodynamic procedures involved in their photoinactivation. The aim of this review is to (i) summarize the main approaches developed until now for the photodynamic inactivation of bacteriophages and mammalian viruses and, (ii) discuss and compare the present state of the art of mammalian viruses PDI with phage photoinactivation, with special focus on the most relevant mechanisms, molecular targets and factors affecting the viral inactivation process.

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
Interactions of cationic FeTMPyP with ionic and nonionic micelles have been studied by optical absorption, resonance light scattering (RLS) and 1 H NMR spectroscopies. The equilibrium behavior of FeTMPyP as a function of pH is described by several species in aqueous solution. The presence of phosphate anions leads to the existence of additional species in the acid p H region, probably due to the coordination of phosphates to the iron. FeTMPyP solution as a function of pH in the presence of anionic SDS showed a simplified equilibrium in acidic pH region, favoring the transition to the dimeric species. Titration of FeTMPyP as a function of SDS surfactant concentration showed the presence of three different porphyrin species: free metalloporphyrin monomers (or dimers depending on pH), metalloporphyrin monomers (or dimers) bound to the micelles, and nonmicellar metalloporphyrin/surfactant aggregates. In the case of zwitterionic LPC and HPS, and nonionic TRITON X-100 the nonmicellar metalloporphyrin/surfactant aggregates were not observed. Binding constants were calculated from optical absorption data and have values of 2 × 103 M −1 for SDS being much smaller for HPS (58 M −1), LPC and TRITON X-100. Comparison with our previous data for anionic FeTPPS 4 shows that both the electrostatic factor and hydrophobic forces are relevant in the porphyrin-surfactant interaction: for FeTPPS 4 binding constants to cationic CTAC and zwitterionic HPS are of the same order of magnitude, 1-3 × 104 M −1; for FeTMPyP the delocalization of the positive charges from the periphery substituents into the macrocycle ring leads to reduction of both electrostatic attraction to the micelle as well as hydrophobic character of the porphyrin ring, leading to a 10-fold reduction of binding to the micelles of opposite charge to the porphyrin. NMR data indicated that FeTMPyP is bound to the micelles as an equilibrium of two forms of monomer at pH 2.0, and at pH 9.0 the bound aggregated form (possibly dimers) is observed predominantly with some amount of a monomeric form.

Abstract
The photophysical properties of Pt(II) meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (PtTMPyP4) have been investigated in the presence of purine mononucleotides using emission and transient UV/visible/near-IR spectroscopy. While both adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) form 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with PtTMPyP4, the effect on the triplet lifetime is different. With AMP, complexation gives rise to an enhancement of lifetime and quantum yield due to shielding from dissolved oxygen and a slight decrease in the non-radiative decay rate. When complexed with GMP, quenching is observed consistent with photoinduced electron transfer from guanine to triplet-excited PtTMPyP4, due to both dynamic quenching of the porphyrin and to short-lived emission from 1:1 (67 ns) and 1:2 (400 ns) complexes. No charge-separated photoproducts are observed by transient UV/vis/near-IR absorption spectroscopy on the nanosecond timescale, suggesting that rapid reverse electron transfer may prevent type 1 DNA damage.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy has been used to inactivate microorganisms through the use of targeted photosensitizers. Although the photoinactivation of microorganisms has already been studied under different conditions, a systematic evaluation of irradiation characteristics is still limited. The goal of this study was to test how the light dose, fluence rate and irradiation source affect the viral photoinactivation of a T4-like sewage bacteriophage. The experiments were carried out using white PAR light delivered by fluorescent PAR lamps (40 W m(-2)), sun light (600 W m(-2)) and an halogen lamp (40-1690 W m(-2)). Phage suspensions and two cationic photosensitizers (Tetra-Py(+)-Me, Tri-Py(+)-Me-PF) at concentrations of 0.5, 1.0 and 5.0 microM were used. The results showed that the efficacy of the bacteriophage photoinactivation is correlated not only with the sensitizer and its concentration but also with the light source, energy dose and fluence rate applied. Both photosensitizers at 5.0 microM were able to inactivate the T4-like phage to the limit of detection for each light source and fluence rate. However, depending of the light parameters, different irradiation times are required. The efficiency of photoinactivation is dependent on the spectral emission distribution of the light sources used. Considering the same light source and a fixed light dose applied at different fluence rates, phage inactivation was significantly higher when low fluence rates were used. In this way, the light source, fluence rate and total light dose play an important role in the effectiveness of the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy and should always be considered when establishing an optimal antimicrobial protocol.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy has been used to inactivate microorganisms through the use of targeted photosensitizers. Recently the inactivation of bacteria in residual waters has been reported, but nothing is known about photoinactivation of environmental bacteriophages, which are often used as indicators of human enteric viruses. In this study we tested the effect of six cationic porphyrin derivatives with two to four charges on the photoinactivation of a sewage bacteriophage. A phage suspension of 5 x 10(7) PFU mL(-1) was exposed to white light (40 W m(-2)), during 270 min, at three photosensitizer concentrations (0.5, 1.0 and 5.0 microM). Tetra- and tricationic porphyrins inactivated the T4-like sewage phage to the limits of detection, but dicationic porphyrins did not lead to a significant decrease in phage viability. At the highest photosensitizer concentration (5.0 microM), the phage was completely inactivated (>99.9999% of inactivation, reduction of 7.2 log) after 270 min by the tetracationic porphyrin. Two of the tricationic derivatives also led to phage inactivation to the limit of detection. The rate of bacteriophage photoinactivation and the efficiency of the photosensitizer appeared to vary with the charge and with the substituents in the meso-positions of the porphyrin macrocycle. Tetra- and tricationic porphyrins can, therefore, be used as a new method for inactivating sewage bacteriophages that are frequently used as human enteric virus indicators. The complete inactivation of viruses with low light intensity means that this methodology can be used even on cloudy days and during winter, opening the possibility to develop new technologies for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The interaction of a cationic water-soluble porphyrin, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis [4-(3-pyridiniumpropoxy)phenyl]porphyrin tetrakisbromide (TPPOC3Py), with anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), in aqueous solution has been studied by means of UV-vis, (1)H NMR, fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) spectra and dynamic laser light scattering (DLLS), and it reveals that TPPOC3Py forms porphyrin-surfactant complexes (aggregates), including ordered structures J- and H-aggregates, induced by association with surfactant monomers below the SDS critical micelle concentration (cmc), and forms micellized monomer upon the cmc, respectively. The position of TPPOC3Py in the micelle is determined, which is not in the micelle core instead of intercalated among the SDS chains, most likely with the pyridinium group extending into the polar headgroup region of the micelle.

Abstract
The risk of transmitting infections by blood transfusion has been substantially reduced. However, alternative methods for inactivation of pathogens in blood and its components are needed. Application of photoactivated cationic porphyrins can offer an approach to remove non-enveloped viruses from aqueous media. Here we tested the virus inactivation capability of meso-Tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (TMPyP) and meso-Tri-(4-N-methylpyridyl)monophenylporphyrin (TMPyMPP) in the dark and upon irradiation. T7 bacteriophage, as a surrogate on non-enveloped viruses was selected as a test system. TMPyP and TMPyMPP reduce the viability of T7 phage already in the dark, which can be explained by their selective binding to nucleic acid. Both compounds proved to be efficient photosensitizers of virus inactivation. The binding of porphyrin to phage DNA was not a prerequisite of phage photosensitization, moreover, photoinactivation was more efficiently induced by free than by DNA bound porphyrin. As optical melting studies and agarose gel electrophoresis of T7 nucleoprotein revealed, photoreactions of TMPyP and TMPyMPP affect the structural integrity of DNA and also of viral proteins, despite their selective DNA binding.

Abstract
The interaction of a cationic water-soluble porphyrin, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[4-(3-pyridiniumpropoxy)phenyl]prophyrin tetrakisbromide (TPPOC3Py), with beta-CD and HP-beta-CD in aqueous solution has been studied by UV-vis, 1H NMR, 2D-NOESY and MALDI-TOF MS, and it reveals that a stable 1:1 inclusion complex between TPPOC3Py and HP-beta-CD or beta-CD has formed, in which one of the meso substituents of porphyrin ring has deeply penetrated through the cavity of HP-beta-CD from secondary face. The inclusion constants of the complexes of TPPOC3Py-beta-CD and TPPOC3Py-HP-beta-CD are (1.6+/-0.2)x10(3) M-1 and (8.9+/-0.4)x10(4) M-1, respectively.

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
5,10,15,20-Tetrakis(4-N-ethylpyridiniurmyl)porphyrin (TEPyP) formed 1:1 stoichiometry inclusion complexes with beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and its derivatives including hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD), sulfobutylether-beta-cyclodextrin (SBE-beta-CD) in basic aqueous solution. The supramolecular system was investigated by the methods of fluorescence, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique. The inclusion ability of cyclodextrins exhibited remarkable difference for beta-CD, HP-beta-CD and SBE-beta-CD. Association constants as high as K=1.1 x 10(4) M(-1) in the case of HP-beta-CD/TEPyP and 2.0 x 10(5) M(-1) in the case of SBE-beta-CD/TEPyP complexes were determined, whereas a lower value (K=550 M(-1)) was given in the case of beta-CD/TEPyP. The results showed that hydrogen bonding and charge attraction play important roles in the processes of host-guest interaction. The interaction mechanism of inclusion processes could be explained by the analysis of NMR spectroscopy. The supramolecular assembly was formed. beta-CD and HP-beta-CD approached from the primary face of cavities of CDs.

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.

Abstract
This paper describes the synthesis and characterization of a new series of sterically nondemanding, dicationic porphyrins that exhibit novel DNA-binding interactions. Cationic porphyrins continue to be the focus of a great deal of effort because of the promise they have for use in photodynamic, antiviral, and anticancer therapies. The systems explored here include 5,15-di(N-methylpyridinium-4-yl)porphyrin (H2D4), 5,15-di(N-methylpyridinium-3-yl)porphyrin (H2D3), and 5,15-di(N-methylpyridinium-2-yl)porphyrin (H2D2), as well as Zn(D4) and Zn(D3), the zinc(II)-containing derivatives of H2D4 and H2D3, respectively. Viscometry studies, in conjunction with various spectroscopic techniques, reveal the nature of the adducts formed with DNA. Irrespective of the base composition, H2D4 and H2D3 bind to DNA by intercalation. The zinc derivatives Zn(D4) and Zn(D3) are also intercalators; however, the binding constants are smaller because uptake requires the loss of an axial ligand. The decisive roles that steric factors and structural rigidity play in shaping the adducts with DNA become clear. Sequences that contain mainly adenine-thymine base pairs easily depart from the canonical B-form DNA structure and generally accommodate bulky porphyrins in external binding sites. However, with the H2D3 and H2D4 systems, the steric requirements are so minimal that intercalation becomes the preferred mode of binding, even in [poly(dA-dT)]2. The intercalated form of the H2D2 isomer is less stable, probably because of frontal strain associated with the (N-methyl)pyridinium-2-yl groups. A qualitative energy-level diagram is useful for assessing the forces that influence binding and could guide the design of new porphyrin ligands.

Abstract
Cationic porphyrins have a wide variety of uses including those as nucleic acid binding and cleaving agents, as potential pharmacological agents, as electron donor/acceptors in intramolecular electron transfer processes and as analytical reagents. Herein, we report the separation of cationic porphyrins by capillary electrophoresis on fused silica in phosphate buffer at pH 2-5. The porphyrins studied in this work were synthesized from alkylation of the parent tetrapyridylporphyrin (TPyP) to give various pyridinium porphyrins. For example, methylation of TPyP gives a mixture of the mono-, cis-di-, trans-di-, tri- and tetramethylated porphyrins [e.g., 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(N-methyl-4-pyridiniumyl)-21H,23H-p orphyrin, TMPyP(4)]. Capillary electrophoresis on a synthetic mixture showed separation of four of these compounds. Mixtures after alkylation with iodopropionic acid and bromopropylamine were also separated. The cis-di- and trimethylated TMPyP derivatives were separated on a small preparative scale by centrifugal partition chromatography. Capillary electrophoresis was also used to separate metallo TMPyP(4) complexes including those of cobalt, copper, iron, manganese, palladium, tin, vanadium and zinc. The conformational isomers (atropisomers) of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(N-methyl-2-pyridiniumyl)-21H,23H-p orphyrin, TMPyP(2), were also separated. Net charge, molecular mass and molecular shape all contribute to the differential retention of cationic porphyrins under capillary electrophoresis conditions. Additional factors affecting the separations, including aggregation and protonation of the porphyrins, were probed by evaluating the separation of TMPyP(4) and its butyl and octyl analogs as a function of solution conditions. Cationic porphyrins are difficult to separate using traditional chromatographic methods; capillary electrophoresis and centrifugal partition chromatography provide excellent new techniques for separation of this class of compounds.

Abstract
In this paper we examine the interactions of Calf Thymus DNA and the model polynucleotides poly(dA).poly(dT), poly(dAdT)2 and poly(dG.dC)2 with a group of metalloporphyrins derived from the freebase porphyrin tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphine, H2(TMpy-P4), by means of ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy, circular dichroism spectroscopy and microcalorimetry. We have studied the interactions of the copper, cobalt, nickel and zinc derivatives of H2(TMpy-P4) in addition to the free base porphyrin itself. We have found strong evidence for an external self-stacking interaction of the Cu(TMpy-P4) and Zn(TMpy-P4) derivatives with poly(dA).poly(dT) and poly(dAdT)2 even at low concentrations of porphyrin, and all of the porphyrin derivatives studied appear to display such a self-stacking in interaction with poly(dA.dT)2 at sufficiently high ratios of porphyrin to polynucleotide.

Abstract
Cationic porphyrins are under study in a number of contexts including their interaction with biological targets, as possible therapeutic agents and as building blocks for molecular devices such as molecular photodiodes and solar cells. Many cationic porphyrins dimerize readily in aqueous solution. Dimerization in turn can control the properties of the porphyrin as well as its binding to its target. The propensity of a porphyrin to dimerize in aqueous solution can be estimated by recording the optical spectrum of the solution as a function of the concentration of added salt. Analysis of the data in terms of the Debye-Hückel formalism gives an estimate of the extent of dimerization as a function of ionic strength. Data for TMPyP4 [meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridinium)porphyrin] and its butyl and octyl homologs; TMAP [meso-tetrakis(4-N,N,N-trimethylanilinium)porphyrin]; T theta PP [meso-tetrakis[4-N-[(3-(trimethyl-ammonio)propyl)oxy]phenyl]porphyrin] and the ferrocenyl porphyrin P3Fc are discussed. Dimerization may affect binding of the cationic porphyrins to their targets, e.g., DNA.

Abstract
Cationic porphyrins, known to have a high affinity for DNA, are useful tools with which to probe a variety of interactions with DNA. In this study we have examined both DNA strand scission and oxidative DNA base damage, measured by 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) formation, using a photoactivated cis-dicationic porphyrin. The data demonstrated a dose-dependent formation for each type of DNA damage. Inhibition of strand scission and 8-OHdG formation with the singlet oxygen scavenger 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran and with MgCl2 and no apparent effect by D2O suggests that a singlet oxygen mechanism generated in close proximity to the DNA may be responsible for the damage. However, a nearly complete inhibition of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine formation in 75% D2O and the substantial enhancement of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine formation in a helium atmosphere by photoactivated porphyrin rules out singlet oxygen as a primary mechanism for this process. These data indicate that distinct mechanisms lead to 8-OHdG formation and strand scission activity.
