Hypericin-Induced Cell Photosensitization Involves an Intracellular pH Decrease
Snarf-1-AM (Seminaphthorhodafluor-1-acetoxymethylester) being used as a fluorescent pH probe, confocal laser microspectrofluorometric measurements allowed intracellular pH to be assessed within 3T3 mouse fibroblasts in the presence or in the absence of ...

A deep‐red‐excited osmium(II) photosensitizer (Os2) induces immunogenic cell death (ICD) under 740 nm irradiation and triggers robust anti‐tumor immune responses both in vitro and in vivo. ABSTRACT Immunogenic cell death (ICD), which converts tumor cells into their own vaccine, plays a pivotal role in the development of novel anticancer therapies. Here,

Hypericin-Loaded Carbon Nanohorn Hybrid for Combined Photodynamic and Photothermal Therapy in Vivo
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) of hypericin (Hyp) is hampered by poor water solubility and photostability. Incorporation of photosensitizers into nanocarriers has been designed to solve these issues.

Plant‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles: Biogenesis, Function, and Application in Cancer Immunotherapy
This illustration shows the biogenesis pathways of edible and medicinal plant‐derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs) and their therapeutic effects following uptake in the human body, highlighting their potential for application in cancer immunotherapy. ABSTRACT Plant‐derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs) are nanoscale, lipid bilayer‐enclosed vesicles ...
