The highly oxygen-dependent nature of photodynamic therapy (PDT) limits its therapeutic efficacy against hypoxic solid tumors in clinics, which is an urgent problem to be solved. Herein, we develop oxygen-independent supramolecular agent that produces hydroxyl radical (•OH) by oxidizing water the presence intracellularly abundant pyruvic acid under oxygen-free conditions. A fluorene-substituted BODIPY was designed as electron donor and coassembled with perylene diimide acceptor form quadruple hydrogen-bonded agent. Detailed mechanism studies reveal intermolecular transfer charge separation upon light irradiation result efficient generation ion pairs. Under conditions, cationic radicals directly oxidize generate cytotoxic •OH, anionic electrons acid, realizing catalytic cycle. Thus, this exhibited superb photocytotoxicity even severe environments excellent vivo antitumor on HeLa-bearing mouse models. This work provides a strategy for constructing agents, opens up avenue effective PDT tumors.

Herein, smart orthogonal and temporal properties are successfully developed based a dynamic assembly-induced multicolour supramolecular system. Multicolour fluorescence, including blue, orange even white light emissions, achieved by controlling assembly pyrene derivatives tailoring solvent composition. By taking advantage tuneable dynamically controlled functions, e.g., 3D codes, developed. Moreover, materials, such as multi-information displays 4D also enabling fluorescence-controllable system in solid phase, showing multiple pieces time scale, correct can be identified only at specified time. This work provides an inspiring point design higher security requirements.

Type I photosensitization provides an effective solution to the problem of unsatisfactory photodynamic therapeutic (PDT) effects caused by tumor hypoxia. The challenge in development mode is boost photosensitizer's own electron transfer capacity. Herein, we found that use bovine serum albumin (BSA) encapsulate a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) photosensitizer PS can significantly promote PDT process generate mass superoxide anions (O2•–). This opened new strategy employing BSA as "electron reservoir" and TADF pump". We integrated these roles one system preparing nanophotosensitizer PS@BSA. performance was demonstrated with cells under hypoxic conditions. Furthermore, PS@BSA took full advantage tumor-targeting role achieved efficient for tumor-bearing mice vivo experiments. work route improve efficiency tumors.

Abstract Given that Type-I photosensitizers (PSs) have hypoxia tolerance, developing general approaches to prepare PSs is of great importance, but remains a challenge. Here, we report supramolecular strategy for the preparation photodynamic agents, which simultaneously generate strong oxidizing cationic radicals and superoxide radicals, by introducing electron acceptors existing Type-II PSs. As proof-of-concept, three were designed co-assembled with classical PS produce quadruple hydrogen-bonded agents. The photo-induced transfer from adjacent acceptor occurs efficiently, leading generation +• an anionic radical acceptor, further transfers oxygen form O 2 −• . In addition, these agents induce direct photocatalytic oxidation NADH turnover frequency as high 53.7 min −1 , offers oxygen-independent mechanism damage tumors.

Ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes form a vast family of molecules characterized by their finely tuned photochemical and photophysical properties. Their ability to undergo excited-state deactivation via photosubstitution reactions makes them quite unique in inorganic photochemistry. As consequence, they have been used, general, for building dynamic molecular systems responsive light but, more particularly, the field oncology, as prodrugs new cancer treatment modality called photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT). Indeed, coordination bond be selectively broken under visible irradiation offers fascinating perspectives oncology: it is possible make poorly toxic agents dark that become activated toward cell killing simple compound inside tumor.
