Abstract
Coordination of metal ions by the tetrapyrrolic macrocyclic ring of porphyrin-based photosensitizers (PSs) affects their photophysical properties and consequently, their photodynamic activity. Diamagnetic metals increase the singlet oxygen quantum yield while paramagnetic metals have the opposite effect. Since singlet oxygen is considered the main cell-damaging species in photodynamic therapy (PDT), the nature of the chelated cation would directly affect PDT efficacy. This expectation, however, is not always supported by experimental results and numerous exceptions have been reported. Understanding the effect of the chelated metal is hindered because different chelators were used. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the nature of chelated cation on the photophysical and photodynamic properties of metalloporphyrins, using the same tetrapyrrole core as a chelator of Ag(II), Cu(II), Fe(III), In(III), Mn(III), or Zn(II). Results demonstrated that with the exception of Ag(II), all paramagnetic metalloporphyrins were inefficient as generators of singlet oxygen and did not act as PSs. In contrast, the coordination of diamagnetic ions produced highly efficient PSs. The unexpected photodynamic activity of the Ag(II)-containing porphyrin was attributed to reduction of the chelated Ag(II) to Ag(I) or to demetallation of the complex, caused by cellular reductants and/or by exposure to light. Our results indicate that in biological systems, where PSs localize to various organelles and are subjected to the action of enzymes, reactive metabolites, and reducing or oxidizing agents, their physicochemical and photosensitizing properties change. Consequently, the photophysical properties alone cannot predict the anticancer efficacy of a PS.

The antibacterial activity of photodynamic agents against multidrug resistant bacteria causing wound infection. Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2022; 40:103066.

Abstract
Antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation (aPDI) of multidrug-resistant (MDR) wound pathogens was evaluated with cationic porphyrin derivatives (CPDs). MDR bacterial strains including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were used. The CPDs named PM, PE, PN, and PL were synthesized as a photosensitizer (PS). A diode laser with a wavelength of 655 nm was used as a light source. aPDI of the combinations formed with different energy densities (50, 100, and 150 J/cm²) and PS concentrations (ranging from 3.125 to 600 µM) were evaluated on each bacterial strain. Dark toxicity, cytotoxicity, and phototoxicity were determined on fibroblast cells. In the aPDI groups, survival reductions of up to 5.80 log₁₀ for E. coli, 5.90 log₁₀ for P. aeruginosa, 6.11 log₁₀ for K. pneumoniae, and 6.78 log₁₀ for A. baumannii were obtained. The cytotoxic effect of PL and PM on fibroblast cells was very limited. PN was the type of CPD with the highest dark toxicity on fibroblast cells. In terms of providing broad-spectrum aPDI without or with very limited cytotoxic effect, the best result was observed in aPDI application with PL. The other CPDs need some modifications to show bacterial selectivity for use at 50 µM and above.

Abstract
Cancer is currently a leading health issue globally. Chemotherapy is a prominent treatment method but due to undesired side effects t, there has been a need for novel less toxic approaches. Photodynamic therapy may be listed among the alternatives for efficient and potentially less detrimental applications of cancer therapy. Canonical photodynamic therapy (PDT) approach requires a light source with a specific wavelength of light, a non-toxic photosensitizer and molecular oxygen. PDT creates the desired effect by the photochemical reaction created through interaction of these components to create reactive oxygen species that will act on the cancer cells to enable anti-cancer activities. In our study we focus on non-canonical PDT application. In this approach we are not only aiming to eliminate cancer cells in the environment but also test the anti-metastatic, anti-angiogenic and possible immunomodulatory activities of the novel photosensitizers. Moreover, in our approach, we studied the intracellular pathways that are crucial for carcinogenesis, cell cycle, apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis and immune function to decipher the mechanism of the action for each compound. Reactive oxygen species based explanation was not valid in our study, hence it brings out a non canonical approach to PDT applications. Our results suggests that Phthalocyanine derivatives with imidazole groups can be effectively used against lung, colon, breast and prostate cancer while differentially effecting metastasis, angiogenesis, cell cycle, apoptosis and immune system cells' activities. Based on the results, PDT application of these phthalocyanine derivatives can be an effective treatment option to replace chemotherapy to minimize the potential side effects.

Abstract
The presence of heavy elements in photosensitizers (PS) strongly influences their electronic and photophysical properties, and hence, conjugation of PS with a suitable element is regarded as a potential strategy to improve their photodynamic properties. Moreover, PS conjugated to metal ion or metal complex and heavy atoms such as halogen have attracted considerable attention as promising agents for multimodal or synergistic cancer therapy. These tetrapyrrole compounds depending on the type and nature of the inorganic elements have been explored for photodynamic therapy (PDT), chemotherapy, X-ray photon activation therapy (PAT), and radiotherapy. Particularly, the combination of metal-based PS and X-ray irradiation has been investigated as a promising novel approach for treating deep-seated tumors, which in the case of PDT is a major limitation due to low light penetration in tissue. This review will summarize the present status of evidence on the effect of insertion of metal or halogen on the photophysical properties of PS and the effectiveness of various metal and halogenated PS investigated for PDT, chemotherapy, and PAT as mono and/or combination therapy.

Abstract
In this review we present an updated survey of the main synthesis methods of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in order to obtain various tailored nanosystems for biomedical imaging. The synthesis approach significantly impacts on the AuNPs properties such as surface chemistry, biocompatibility and cytotoxicity. In recent years, nanomedicine emphasized the development of functionalized AuNPs for biomedical imaging. AuNPs are a good option for used as delivery photosensitizer agents for PDT of cancer. For example, the complex formed from AuNPs functionalized with PEGylate porphyrins presents several advantages in the medical field such as a better use in photodynamic therapy because of high triplet states and singlet oxygen quantum yield efficiency of porphyrin molecules.

Abstract
The interaction of water soluble meso-tetra-(4N-oxyethylpyridyl) porphyrin (TOEPyP4) and its Cu(II)- and Co(II)-containing derivatives (CuTOEPyP4 and CoTOEPyP4) with A and B forms of DNA at low ionic strength was studied via UV-vis spectrophotometry and Circular Dichroism. It is shown that the binding constant of TOEPyP4 and CuTOEPyP4 with A–DNA is two times larger than with B–DNA, and the binding constant of CoTOEPyP4 does not depend on the form of DNA. The thermodynamical analysis based on spectral data indicates the preferable entropic character of porphyrins binding with both forms of DNA. This result shows that at low ionic strength the external groove binding mode is a preferred binding mechanism of these porphyrins with both forms of DNA.

Abstract
The increasing popularity of porphyrins and hydroporphyrins for use in a variety of biomedical (photodynamic therapy, fluorescence tagging and imaging, photoacoustic imaging) and technical (chemosensing, catalysis, light harvesting) applications is also associated with the growing number of methodologies that enable their solubilization in aqueous media. Natively, the vast majority of synthetic porphyrinic compounds are not water-soluble. Moreover, any water-solubility imposes several restrictions on the synthetic chemist on when to install solubilizing groups in the synthetic sequence, and how to isolate and purify these compounds. This review summarizes the chemical modifications to render synthetic porphyrins water-soluble, with a focus on the work disclosed since 2000. Where available, practical data such as solubility, indicators for the degree of aggregation, and special notes for the practitioner are listed. We hope that this review will guide synthetic chemists through the many strategies known to make porphyrins and hydroporphyrins water soluble.

Abstract
In the present study we have synthesized a novel amphiphilic porphyrin and its Ag(II) complex through modification of water-soluble porphyrinic structure in order to increase its lipophilicity and in turn pharmacological potency. New cationic non-symmetrical meso-substituted porphyrins were characterized by UV-visible, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), (1)H NMR techniques, lipophilicity (thin-layer chromatographic retention factor, Rf), and elemental analysis. The key toxicological profile (i.e. cytotoxicity and cell line- (cancer type-) specificity; genotoxicity; cell cycle effects) of amphiphilic Ag porphyrin was studied in human normal and cancer cell lines of various tissue origins and compared with its water-soluble analog. Structural modification of the molecule from water-soluble to amphiphilic resulted in a certain increase in the cytotoxicity and a decrease in cell line-specificity. Importantly, Ag(II) porphyrin showed less toxicity to normal cells and greater toxicity to their cancerous counterparts as compared to cisplatin. The amphiphilic complex was also not genotoxic and demonstrated a slight cytostatic effect via the cell cycle delay due to the prolongation of S-phase. As expected, the performed structural modification affected also the photocytotoxic activity of metal-free amphiphilic porphyrin. The ligand tested on cancer cell line revealed a dramatic (more than 70-fold) amplification of its phototoxic activity as compared to its water-soluble tetracationic metal-free analog. The compound combines low dark cytotoxicity with 5 fold stronger phototoxicity relative to Chlorin e6 and could be considered as a potential photosensitizer for further development in photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Lanthanum(III) ions form kinetically labile complexes with the 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin anion (H(2)TSPP(4-)), the compositions and formation constants of which significantly depend on the presence of potential axial ligands (at 0.01 M). Deviating from the chloride ion, acetate coordinating to the metal center hinders the formation of a bisporphyrin complex. In these lanthanum(III) complexes, the metal center, due to its large ionic radius (103.2 pm), is located out of the ligand plane, distorting it. Accordingly, the absorption and fluorescence spectra of these coordination compounds display special properties characteristic of the so-called sitting-atop (SAT) or out-of-plane (OOP) porphyrin complexes. Metalation significantly decreases the quantum yield of the fluorescence from the S(1) excited state. Quantum chemical calculations (DFT) confirm the considerable OOP displacement of the La(III) center (about 120 pm in the monoporphyrin complexes). The monoporphyrins display efficient fluorescence (Φ ≈ 0.03), while the bisporphyrin does not emit. Differing from the normal (in-plane) metalloporphyrins, the excitation of these lanthanum(III) porphyrins leads to an irreversible ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) followed by the opening of the porphyrin ring, which is also typical of OOP complexes. Dissociation releasing free-base porphyrin can also be observed upon irradiation of the monoporphyrin in acetate solution, while in the presence of chloride ions interconversions of the mono- and bisporphyrins may also take place beside the irreversible photoredox reaction.

Abstract
A new cationic silver N-alkylpyridylporphyrin complex is able to 'sense' nanometric conductive particles with a diameter below 10 nm. The luminescence of the molecule changes its maximum from red to blue when it embraces a conductive (metallic or semiconducting) nanoparticle. The change is explained on the basis of a charge transfer between the molecule and the conductive nanoparticle along with a geometrical distortion of the porphyric ring and pyridinium substituents. This new molecule could be used to sense nanoparticle contamination in the environment, in the industry of heterogeneous catalysis and many other branches of nanometrological applications.

Abstract
The water-soluble tin(IV) tetrakis(2-N-hydroxyethyl-4-pyridinium)porphyrin 1 photocatalyst was synthesized in good yield and its structure determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Electrochemical measurements on tin(IV) porphyrin 1 reveal a range of complex redox processes that are highly dependent on the pH and electrode used. The cathodic processes at ca. -0.6 to -0.8 V were assigned to electrochemical processes on the pyridyl moiety following differential pulse voltammetry and spectroelectrochemical investigation into the electrochemical properties of tin(IV) porphyrin. Photocatalytic experiment on tin(IV) porphyrin 1 under anaerobic conditions using triethanolamine (TEAO) as a sacrifical donor reveal a phlorin species as the main product which rapidly disappears upon exposure to oxygen. These results suggest that tin(IV) porphyrin π-radical anion is perhaps not the species responsible for the apparent ability tin(IV) porphyrins to photocatalytically reduce various substrates, including water to hydrogen.
