Bacterial outer membrane vesicles as drug delivery carrier for photodynamic anticancer therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2023
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is an effective tumor treatment strategy that not only induces photocytotoxicity to kill tumor cells directly but also activates the immune system in the body to generate tumor-specific immunity, preventing cancer metastasis ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Peripheral Groups of Dicationic Pyrazinoporphyrins Regulate Lipid Membrane Binding

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a widely used technique for skin cancer treatment and antimicrobial therapy. An improvement in PDT efficiency requires not only an increase in quantum yield of photosensitizer (PS) molecules but also their applicability for ...
