Photodynamic therapy with fullerenes [PDF]

open access: yesPhotochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2007
Fullerenes are a class of closed-cage nanomaterials made exclusively from carbon atoms. A great deal of attention has been focused on developing medical uses of these unique molecules especially when they are derivatized with functional groups to make them soluble and therefore able to interact with biological systems.

Potentiating hypoxic microenvironment for antibiotic activation by photodynamic therapy to combat bacterial biofilm infections

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Traditional antibiotic treatment has limited efficacy for the drug-tolerant bacteria present in biofilms because of their unique metabolic conditions in the biofilm infection microenvironment.

Strategies to improve photodynamic therapy efficacy by relieving the tumor hypoxia environment

open access: yesNPG Asia Materials, 2021
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an emerging technology for tumor treatment in which photosensitizer (PS)-mediated light irradiation reduces oxygen, producing high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can cause vascular injury and effectively kill ...

Immobilized photosensitizers for antimicrobial applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) is a very promising alternative to conventional antibiotics for the efficient inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms; this is due to the fact that it is virtually impossible for resistant strains to ...

Photodynamic therapy in endodontics [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, 2018
AbstractPhotodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment modality that was initiated in 1900; however, it was not until the last decade that PDT regained attention for its several favourable features during the treatment of microbial infections in endodontics. Recently, several papers advocated its use for root canal treatment.
