Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising cancer treatment but has limitations due to its dependence on oxygen and high-power-density photoexcitation. Here, we report polymer-based organic photosensitizers (PSs) through rational PS skeleton design precise side-chain engineering generate •O 2 − •OH under oxygen-free conditions using ultralow-power 808 nm photoexcitation for tumor-specific photodynamic ablation. The designed skeletons can electron-hole pairs sensitize H O into with photoexcitation, achieving NIR-photoexcited oxygen-independent production. Further, compared commonly used alkyl side chains, glycol oligomer as the chain mitigates recombination offers more molecules around generated from hydrophobic skeletons, which yield 4-fold stronger production, thus allowing an high PDT effect. Finally, feasibility of developing activatable PSs in female mice further demonstrated irradiation 15 mW cm −2 . study not only provides insights mechanism also general guideline develop NIR PDT.

Effective photodynamic therapy (PDT) requires photosensitizers (PSs) to massively generate type I reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a less oxygen-dependent manner the hypoxia tumor microenvironment. Herein, we present cascade strategy boost ROS, especially hydroxyl radical (OH·-), generation with an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) photosensitizer-albumin complex for hypoxia-tolerant PDT. The cationic AIE PS TPAQ-Py-PF6 (TPA = triphenylamine, Q anthraquinone, Py pyridine) contains three important moieties cooperatively enhance free generation: AIE-active TPA unit ensures effective triplet exciton aggregate, anthraquinone moiety possesses redox cycling ability promote electron transfer, while methylpyridinium cation further increases intramolecular charge transfer and separation processes. Inserting into hydrophobic domain of bovine serum albumin nanoparticles (BSA NPs) could greatly immobilize its molecular geometry increase generation, electron-rich microenvironment BSA ultimately leads OH·- generation. Both experimental theoretical results confirm effectiveness our cationization immobilization enhancing In vitro vivo experiments validate excellent antitumor PDT performance NPs, superior conventional polymeric encapsulation approach. Such multidimensional specially boosting shall hold great potential related applications.
