Clinical application of photodynamic diagnosis and photodynamic therapy for gynecologic malignant diseases: A review

Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy, 2018
Several types of photosensitizers such as 5-aminolevulinic acid are progenitors of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX). PpIX accumulates in cancer cells and has photosensitivity. Based on these characteristics, they are used in photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) and photodynamic therapy (PDT).

Reducing understaging of bladder cancer with the aid of photodynamic

Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute, 2016
Background: The authors evaluated the role of photodynamic cystoscopy in the detection of additional urothelial lesions, mainly carcinoma in situ, that would not be detected solely with white light cystoscopy, leading to disease understaging.

Trithio‐naphthalic anhydride‐based photosensitizer for photodynamic activity

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
A trithio‐naphthalic anhydride photosensitizer (NapS) is created by simple thionation, switching excited‐state pathways to deliver both type I and type II reactive oxygen species. NapS enables efficient photodynamic therapy under normoxia and hypoxia, achieving strong cancer cell killing with low dark toxicity.

Hematoporphyrin derivative-mediated photodynamic techniques for the diagnosis and treatment of chordoma

Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy
Background: Chordoma is a rare congenital low-grade malignant tumor characterized by infiltrative growth. It often tends to compress important intracranial nerves and blood vessels, making its surgical treatment extremely difficult. Besides, the efficacy
