Photosensitizing Antivirals [PDF]
Antiviral action of various photosensitizers is already summarized in several comprehensive reviews, and various mechanisms have been proposed for it. However, a critical consideration of the matter of the area is complicated, since the exact mechanisms are very difficult to explore and clarify, and most publications are of an empirical and ...

Endosomal escape in cell-penetrating peptide (CPP)-based drug/macromolecule delivery systems is frequently insufficient. The CPP-fused molecules tend to remain trapped inside endosomes and end up being degraded rather than delivered into the cytosol. One

Mechanisms of growth inhibition of primary prostate epithelial cells following gamma irradiation or photodynamic therapy including senscence, necrosis, and autophagy, but not apoptosis [PDF]
In comparison to more differentiated cells, prostate cancer stem-like cells are radioresistant, which could explain radio-recurrent prostate cancer. Improvement of radiotherapeutic efficacy may therefore require combination therapy.

An investigation of the role the donor moiety plays in modulating the efficiency of ‘donor-π-acceptor-π-acceptor’ organic DSSCs [PDF]
Three ‘D-π-A-π-A’ based dyes have been synthesized featuring MeO-, MeS- and Me2N- as donor residues and benzothiadiazole and cyanoacrylic acid residues as acceptor units. UV–vis spectroscopy, solution electrochemistry and DFT modelling indicated that the
