This work reports the preparation and characterization of an A B corrole 5,15-bis(perfluorophenyl)-10-(4-carboxyphenyl)corrole and its gallium(III) and phosphorus(V) complexes. Their in-vitro photodynamic anticancer activities against A549, MDA-MB-231, B16, HepG2, and Hela cell lines were also investigated. Among three compounds, phosphorus(V) complexexhibits the best photostability, highest fluorescence quantum yields (Φ =0.138), and the highest singlet-oxygen quantum yields (Φ =0.87). Also, the phosphorus(V) complex exhibits the best photodynamic antitumor activity against MDA-MB-231 cells with a low IC (0.08 μM) upon light irradiation at 625±2 nm, which is much lower than commercial PDT drug Temoporfin (0.1 μM) at the same conditions. The cellular localization assay confirmed that the phosphorus(V) complexis mainly distributed in the cytoplasm and have a good ability to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) under light illumination, which would further cause oxidative damage to tumor cells and finally result in the apoptosis. After PDT treatment, phosphorus(V) complex may cause tumor cell arrest at the G2/M stage. The preliminary results showed phosphorus(V) corrole complex is a good candidate for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of tumors.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is increasingly regarded as an attractive approach for cancer treatment due to its advantages of low invasiveness, minimal side effects, and high efficiency. Here, two novel Ru(II) complexes , were designed and synthesized by coordinating phenanthroline and biquinoline ligands with Ru(II) center, and their chemo-photodynamic therapy and immunotherapy were explored. Both and exhibited significant phototoxicity against A549 and 4T1 tumor cells type-I/-II PDT.

The key to the treatment of choroidal melanoma (CM) is to improve diagnostic efficiency and find a high-performance treatment to replace the traditional treatment of radiotherapy and enucleation. In this paper, for the first time, long afterglow luminescence material was applied to the integrated diagnosis and treatment of eyes, with its unique advantages in photoluminescence and afterglow luminescence to solve the bottleneck problem of real-time irradiation required for photothermal and photodynamic therapy (PTT and PDT). Based on the excellent photoluminescence and afterglow properties of ZnGaGeO:CrYbEr (ZGGO) nanoparticles, a nanoplatform ZGGO@Au@UiO-66@ZnPc:Dox-FA (GAUZD-FA) for NIR-Ⅱ imaging and triple-synergistic therapy (PTT, PDT and sustained-release drug) was constructed.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major cancers threatening human health, with high mortality, tumor drug resistance and metastasis, considered to be one of the most difficult diseases to treat. Due to its advantages of non-invasive, strongly targeted and limit side effects, Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has become a promising primary treatment for CRC. Remarkably, PDT has been shown to activate T cell-adaptive immune response and induce immunogenic cell death (ICD).

Immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies, has revolutionized oncology. However, it encounters challenges such as inadequate drug accumulation and limited efficacy against "cold" tumors characterized by lack of T cell infiltration and immunosuppressive microenvironments. Here, a controlled antibody production and releasing nanoparticle (CAPRN) is introduced, designed to augment ICB efficacy by facilitating tumor-targeted antibody production and inducing photodynamic cell death.

In this report, we developed novel chlorin/arylaminoquinazoline conjugates for targeted photodynamic therapy of cancer. The synthesized photosensitizers consisted of chlorin- metallocomplexes (Zn, In, or Pd) conjugated with arylaminoquinazoline ligands with high affinity for epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR). Additionally, the selectivity and antitumor properties of the conjugates were investigated in the EGFR-expressing A431 human tumor cell line .
