Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are rapidly emerging, coupled with the failure of current antibiotic therapy; thus, new alternatives for effectively treating infections caused by MDR required. Hyperthermia-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) and reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated photodynamic (PDT) have attracted extensive attention as antibacterial therapies owing to advantages such low invasiveness, toxicity, likelihood causing bacterial resistance. However, both strategies notable drawbacks, including high temperature requirements PTT weak ability PDT-derived ROS penetrate target cells. To overcome these limitations, a combination PDT has been used against bacteria. In this review, we discuss unique benefits limitations The mechanisms underlying synergistic effects PTT–PDT also discussed. Furthermore, introduced advancements in methods using nano-based agents treat Finally, highlight existing challenges future perspectives We believe that review will encourage PTT- PDT-based research can be referenced clinical applications.

Abstract Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has significant potential in the treatment of dermatological, oncological, and nonneoplastic conditions through induction cell death, immune regulation, antimicrobial effects, etc. However, response some patients is unsatisfactory, there a lack an ideal protocol for multiple specific diseases (subtypes) to choose proper photosensitizer (PS), light source, dose. A thorough understanding underlying mechanism integral solving these problems, death gained much attention. In addition apoptosis, autophagy, necrosis, several novel pathways, such as necroptosis, mitotic catastrophe, paraptosis pyroptosis, have been reported PDT treatment. The type induced depends on dose PDT, subcellular location PSs, regulation signaling pathways. addition, different types by same apoptosis may interact with each other. Some can also trigger immunogenic (ICD), which ignite against antigens derived from dying/dead cells present improved antitumor effects. On basis mechanisms, strategies, targeted combined immunotherapy ICD‐based vaccines, proposed improve therapeutic efficacy. Future studies are needed elucidate relationship between effects shed new exploration precise patients.

Photodynamic therapy is a non-ionizing radiation treatment that utilizes photosensitizer in combination with light to produce singlet oxygen. This oxygen induces anti-cancer effects by causing apoptotic, necrotic, or autophagic cell death tumor cells. Currently, photodynamic employed oncology treat various cancers. In the presence of oxygen, this non-invasive approach leads direct death, damage microvasculature, and induction local inflammatory response. These allow be effective treating early-stage tumors, extending survival cases where surgery not feasible, significantly improving quality life. paper, we provide state art on cytomolecular mechanisms associated pathways involved therapy.
