Abstract
Developing effective near-infrared (NIR) photosensitizers (PSs) has been an attractive goal of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for cancer treatment. In this study, we synthesized N, N-diethylaminomethylphenyl-containing Aza-BODIPY photosensitizers and comprehensively investigated their photophysical/photochemical properties, as well as cell-based and animal-based anti-tumor studies. Among them, BDP 1 has strong NIR absorption at 680 nm and higher singlet oxygen yield in PBS which showed favorable pH-activatable and lysosome-targeting ability. BDP 1 could be easily taken up by tumor cells and showed negligible dark activity (IC50 > 50 μM), however strong phototoxicity upon exposure to light irradiation. The acceptable fluorescence emission from BDP 1 allowed convenient in vivo fluorescence imaging for organ distribution studies in mice. After PDT treatment with upon single time PDT treatment at the beginning using relatively low light dose (54 J/ cm2), BDP 1 (2 mg/kg, 0.1 mL) was found to have strong efficacy to inhibit tumor growth and even to ablate off tumor without causing body weight loss. Therefore, pH-activatable and lysosome-targeted PS may become an effective way to develop potent PDT agent.

Automated radiosynthesis and in vivo evaluation of 18F-labeled analog of the photosensitizer ADPM06 for planning photodynamic therapy. EJNMMI Radiopharm Chem 2023; 8:14. [PMID: 37458904 DOI: 10.1186/s41181-023-00199-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A family of BF2-chelated tetraaryl-azadipyrromethenes was developed as non-porphyrin photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy. Among the developed photosensitizers, ADPM06 exhibited excellent photochemical and photophysical properties. Molecular imaging is a useful tool for photodynamic therapy planning and monitoring. Radiolabeled photosensitizers can efficiently address photosensitizer biodistribution, providing helpful information for photodynamic therapy planning. To evaluate the biodistribution of ADPM06 and predict its pharmacokinetics on photodynamic therapy with light irradiation immediately after administration, we synthesized [18F]ADPM06 and evaluated its in vivo properties. RESULTS [18F]ADPM06 was automatically synthesized by Lewis acid-assisted isotopic 18F-19F exchange using ADPM06 and tin (IV) chloride at room temperature for 10 min. Radiolabeling was carried out using 0.4 μmol of ADPM06 and 200 μmol of tin (IV) chloride. The radiosynthesis time was approximately 60 min, and the radiochemical purity was > 95% at the end of the synthesis. The decay-corrected radiochemical yield from [18F]F- at the start of synthesis was 13 ± 2.7% (n = 5). In the biodistribution study of male ddY mice, radioactivity levels in the heart, lungs, liver, pancreas, spleen, kidney, small intestine, muscle, and brain gradually decreased over 120 min after the initial uptake. The mean radioactivity level in the thighbone was the highest among all organs investigated and increased for 120 min after injection. Upon co-injection with ADPM06, the radioactivity levels in the blood and brain significantly increased, whereas those in the heart, lung, liver, pancreas, kidney, small intestine, muscle, and thighbone of male ddY mice were not affected. In the metabolite analysis of the plasma at 30 min post-injection in female BALB/c-nu/nu mice, the percentage of radioactivity corresponding to [18F]ADPM06 was 76.3 ± 1.6% (n = 3). In a positron emission tomography study using MDA-MB-231-HTB-26 tumor-bearing mice (female BALB/c-nu/nu), radioactivity accumulated in the bone at a relatively high level and in the tumor at a moderate level for 60 min after injection. CONCLUSIONS We synthesized [18F]ADPM06 using an automated 18F-labeling synthesizer and evaluated the initial uptake and pharmacokinetics of ADPM06 using biodistribution of [18F]ADPM06 in mice to guide photodynamic therapy with light irradiation.

Abstract
In view of the ever-growing demand for efficient NIR fluorophores for biomedical applications, we herein report the synthesis and properties of four unsymmetrical aza-BODIPYs exhibiting NIR fluorescence. Highly desirable photophysical and photochemical properties were induced in these molecules due to the presence of both strongly electron-withdrawing p-nitrophenyl rings (p-NO2Ph-) and mildly electron-donating p-methoxyphenyl rings (p-MeOPh-) within the aza-BODIPY core. In particular, upon excitation with λabs the unsymmetrical aza-BODIPYs studied exhibited NIR emission with λf ranging from 699 nm to 718 nm in toluene. The fluorescence quantum yields (Φf), depending on the substitution pattern, ranged from Φf = 0.49 to Φf = 0.22 and the fluorescence lifetimes ranged from τf = 1.90 ns to τf = 3.59 ns. Aza-BODIPY with electron-donating substituent at 3 position and electron-withdrawing substituent at 5 position was identified as cell permeable, NIR emitting fluorophore suitable for bioimaging.

Abstract
In recent years, antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) gained increasing attention for its potential to inhibit the growth and spread of microorganisms, both as free-living cells and/or embedded in biofilm communities. In this scenario, compounds belonging to the family of boron-dipyrromethenes (BODIPYs) represent a very promising class of photosensitizers for applications in antimicrobial field. In this study, twelve non-ionic and three cationic BODIPYs were assayed for the inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans. As expected, S. aureus showed to be very sensitive to BODIPYs and mild conditions were sufficient to reach good rates of photoinactivation with both neutral and monocationic ones. Surprisingly, one neutral compound (named B9 in this study) resulted the best BODIPY to photoinactivate P. aeruginosa PAO1. The photoinactivation of C. albicans was reached with both neutral and mono-cationic BODIPYs. Furthermore, biofilms of the three model microorganisms were challenged with BODIPYs in light-based antimicrobial technique. S. aureus biofilms were successfully inhibited with milder conditions than those applied to P. aeruginosa and C. albicans. Notably, it was possible to eradicate 24-h-old biofilms of both S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. In conclusion, this study supports the potential of neutral BODIPYs as pan-antimicrobial PSs.

Abstract
We devised a new generation of halogen-based triplet sensitisers comprising geminal dibromides at the vinyl backbone of a BODIPY fluorophore. Incorporating geminal dibromides into the π-conjugation of BODIPY enhanced intersystem crossing due to the heavy atom effect, which in turn improved the extent of excited triplet states.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of the first transplatin-BODIPY conjugates for application in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The distyryl BODIPYs containing two iodine atoms were designed to absorb in the red region, easily undergo intersystem crossing for efficient singlet oxygen generation, and additionally offer the possibility for coordination with mono-activated transplatin. We were able to demonstrate that coordination of the BODIPYs with a mono-activated transplatin increases the phototoxic index of the photosensitizers significantly, giving rise to highly phototoxic distyryl BODIPY derivatives, of which one was shown to have the highest ever reported phototoxic index against any cell line. Furthermore, the photophysical mechanism of singlet oxygen generation in distyryl BODIPYs undergoing intramolecular charge transfer was studied experimentally and using time-dependent density functional theory.

Abstract
Novel symmetrical aza-borondipyrromethene (aza-BODIPY) compounds bearing 4-methoxyphenyl, 4-methoxybiphenyl, 2,4-dimethoxybipheny, 4-bromophenyl and N,N-diphenyl-4-biphenylamine groups on the 3, 3,5 and 2,6 positions of aza-BODIPY core were synthesized via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions while unsymmetrical analogues were obtained from the starting mono Br-substituted aza-BODIPY material which was obtained from nitrosolated pyrrole derivative. The characterizations were performed by means of 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, FTIR and HRMS-TOF-ESI techniques. The spectral properties of the aza-BODIPY derivatives were investigated using absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The novel compounds with extended conjugation have broadband absorption in near infrared region and show significant shifts on their absorption and fluorescence spectra compared to unsubstituted analogues. The highest bathochromic shifts were observed π-extended and strong electron donating groups at 3,5 positions of the aza-BODIPY scaffold. Depend on substitution positions of attached groups to the indacene core, the fluorescence quantum yields of chromophores were determined to be drastic changes. The singlet oxygen generation capability of the compounds were evaluated and 2,6-bromine substituted compounds AA1 and CC1 showed high singlet oxygen quantum yields (71% and 74%, respectively). Enhanced photophysical properties such as intense absorption, extended conjugation and singlet oxygen production make the investigated aza-BODIPYs promising candidates for photodynamic therapy applications and organic photovoltaic cells in NIR region.

Abstract
Recent studies report the boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) moiety to be interesting for caging applications in photopharmacology based on its response to irradiation with wavelengths in the biooptical window. Thus, in a model study, we investigated the meso-methyl-BODIPY caged CDK2 inhibitor AZD5438 and aimed to assess the usability of BODIPY as a photoremovable protecting group in photoresponsive kinase inhibitor applications. Photochemical analysis and biological characterisation in vitro revealed significant limitations of the BODIPY-caged inhibitor concept regarding solubility and uncaging in aqueous solution. Notably, we provide evidence for BODIPY-caged compounds generating singlet oxygen/radicals upon irradiation, followed by photodegradation of the caged compound system. Consequently, instead of caging, a non-specific induction of necrosis in cells suggests the potential usage of BODIPY derivatives for photodynamic approaches.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) as a rising platform of the cancer treatment method is receiving increased attention. Through systematic evaluation of halogen substitution on aza-4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacenes (BODIPY), we have found that monoiodo-derived aza-BODIPYs provided greater efficacy than other halogenated aza-BODIPY PSs. 4 and 15 as monoiodinated aza-BODIPY dyes containing p-methoxyphenyl moiety were identified to be potent NIR aza-BODIPY-type PSs with IC50 values against HeLa cells at a light dose of 54 J/cm2 as low as 76 and 81 nM, respectively. 4 possessed superior phototoxicity, low dark toxicity, and good thermal/photostability and distributed majorly in mitochondria in cells. Apoptosis was verified to be the main cell death pathway, and in vitro reactive oxygen species generation was demonstrated. In vivo whole-body fluorescence imaging and ex vivo organ distribution studies suggested that 4 afforded an excellent PDT effect with a low drug dose under single-time light irradiation and revealed advantages over known PSs of ADPM06 and Ce6.

Abstract
The selectivity of photodynamic therapy (PDT) derived from the tailored accumulation of photosensitizing drug (photosensitizer; PS) in the tumor microenvironment (TME), and from local irradiation, turns it into a "magic bullet" for the treatment of resistant tumors without sparing the healthy tissue and possible adverse effects. However, locally-induced hypoxia is one of the undesirable consequences of PDT, which may contribute to the emergence of resistance and significantly reduce therapeutic outcomes. Therefore, the development of strategies using new approaches in nanotechnology and molecular biology can offer an increased opportunity to eliminate the disadvantages of hypoxia. Emerging evidence indicates that wisely designed phototherapeutic procedures, including: (i) ROS-tunable photosensitizers, (ii) organelle targeting, (iii) nano-based photoactive drugs and/or PS delivery nanosystems, as well as (iv) combining them with other strategies (i.e. PTT, chemotherapy, theranostics or the design of dual anticancer drug and photosensitizers) can significantly improve the PDT efficacy and overcome the resistance. This mini-review addresses the role of hypoxia and hypoxia-related molecular mechanisms of the HIF-1α pathway in the regulation of PDT efficacy. It also discusses the most recent achievements as well as future perspectives and potential challenges of PDT application against hypoxic tumors.

Abstract
We report herein the synthesis of aza-BODIPY substituted with strongly electron-donating p-(diphenylamino)phenyl substituents (p-Ph2 N-) at 3,5-positions. The presence of p-Ph2 N- groups lowers the energy of the singlet excited state (Es ) to 1.48 eV and induces NIR absorption with λabs at 789 nm in THF. The compound studied is weakly emissive with the emission band (λf ) at 837 nm and with the singlet lifetime (τS ) equal to 100 ps. Nanosecond laser photolysis experiments of the aza-BODIPY in question revealed T1 →Tn absorption spanning from ca. 350-550 nm with the triplet lifetime (τT ) equal to 21 μs. By introducing a heavy atom (Br) into the structure of the aza-BODIPY, we managed to turn it into a NIR operating photosensitizer. The photosensitized oxygenation of the model compound-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF)-proceedes via Type I and/or Type III mechanism without formation of singlet oxygen (1 O2 ). As estimated by CV/DPV measurements, the p-Ph2 N- substituted aza-BODIPYs studied exhibits oxidation processes at relatively low oxidation potentials (Eox 1 ), pointing to the very good electron-donating properties of these molecules. Extremely high photostability and thermal robustness up to approximately 300 °C are observed for the p-Ph2 N- substituted aza-BODIPYs.

Abstract
Controlled generation of singlet oxygen is very important due to its involvement in scheduled cellular maintenance processes and therapeutic potential. As a consequence, precise manipulation of singlet oxygen release rates under mild conditions, is crucial. In this work, a cross-linked polyacrylate, and a polydimethylsiloxane elastomer incorporating anthracene-endoperoxide modules with chain extensions at the 9,10-positions were synthesized. We now report that on mechanical agitation in cryogenic ball mill, fluorescence emission due to anthracene units in the PMA (polymethacrylate) polymer is enhanced, with a concomitant generation of singlet oxygen as proved by detection with a selective probe. The PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) elastomer with the anthracene endoperoxide mechanophore, is also similarly sensitive to mechanical force.

Abstract
A modified facile biomimetic Temozolomide Chitosan nanogel (TCNL) was developed offering pH responsive, charge attracted and microenvironment dependent tumor targeting nanotherapy. USFDA approved chemotherapeutic TMZ (Temozolomide) was encapsulated in a cationic biocompatible chitosan nanogel subsequently surface modified with nonionic Transcutol by inotropic gelation method and evaluated for its combined anti-metastatic and antitumor efficiency. The in-vitro results authenticated that TMZ encapsulated TCNL was effectively uptake and distributed in HaCaT cell line inducing high apoptosis and necrosis of tumor cells prior to the electron microscopic (TEM & SEM) and thermal evaluations (DSC, DTA & TG) suggesting spherical and thermo-stable nanogel system. An accelerated sustained release pattern of TMZ from TCNL was displayed in mildly acidic conditions (pH 6) signifying ultra-sensitivity of TCNL. In-vivo evaluation over 16 week DMBA/croton oil tumor induced mice model showed noteworthy tumor targeting with down regulation of overexpressed COX-2, cytokines and nuclear factors on western blot analysis. Moreover, advanced gamma scintigraphy analysis displayed significant drug accommodation and expressing potent tumor accumulation, suppression and metastasis effect on carcinogenic mice. The TCNL outcomes displayed effective tumor targeting on transdermal delivery for operative nanotherapy against skin cancer.

Abstract
We report a series of four efficient photosensitizers (PSs) based on a Bodipy core for photodynamic therapy (PDT). In the absence of hydrophilic functional groups, these PSs have been encapsulated in liposomes and examined for photocytotoxicity against human ovarian carcinoma cell line (SK-OV-3). The IC50 values obtained are as low as 0.350 μM, which compete with the classical photosensitizer chlorine E6 (IC50 = 0.39 μM) under similar experimental conditions.

Abstract
In drug delivery, the poor tumor perfusion results in disappointing therapeutic efficacy. Nanomedicines for photodynamic therapy (PDT) greatly need deep tumor penetration due to short lifespan and weak diffusion of the cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). The damage of only shallow cells can easily cause invasiveness and metastasis. Moreover, even if the nanomedicines enter into deeper lesion, the effectiveness of PDT is limited due to the hypoxic microenvironment. Here, a deep penetrating and oxygen self-sufficient PDT nanoparticle is developed for balanced ROS distribution within tumor and efficient cancer therapy. The designed nanoparticles (CNPs/IP) are doubly emulsified (W/O/W) from poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(ε-caprolactone) copolymers doped with photosensitizer IR780 in the O layer and oxygen depot perfluorooctyl bromide (PFOB) inside the core, and functionalized with the tumor penetrating peptide Cys-Arg-Gly-Asp-Lys (CRGDK). The CRGDK modification significantly improves penetration depth of CNPs/IP and makes the CNPs/IP arrive at both the periphery and hypoxic interior of tumors where the PFOB releases oxygen, effectively alleviating hypoxia and guaranteeing efficient PDT performance. The improved intratumoral distribution of photosensitizer and adequate oxygen supply augment the sensitivity of tumor cells to PDT and significantly improve PDT efficiency. Such a nanosystem provides a potential platform for improved therapeutic index in anticancer therapy.

Abstract
A series of novel iodinated NO2 -substituted aza-BODIPYs have been synthesized and characterized. Highly desirable photophysical and photochemical properties were induced in NO2 -substituted aza-BODIPYs by iodination of the pyrrole rings. In particular, high values of singlet oxygen quantum yields (ΦΔ ) ranging from 0.79 to 0.85 were measured. The photooxygenation process proceeds via a Type II mechanism under the experimental conditions applied. The compounds studied exhibited an absorption band within the so-called "therapeutic window", with λmax located between 645 nm to 672 nm. They were non-fluorescent at room temperature with excited singlet-state lifetimes within the picosecond range as measured by femtosecond transient absorption. Nanosecond laser flash photolysis experiments revealed T1 →Tn absorption spanning from ca. 400 nm to ca. 500 nm and allowed determination of the triplet-state lifetimes. The estimated triplet lifetimes (τT ) in deaerated acetonitrile ranged between 2.74 μs and 3.50 μs. As estimated by CV/DPV measurements, all iodinated aza-BODIPYs studied exhibited one irreversible oxidation and two quasi-reversible reductions processes. Estimation of the EHOMO gave the value of -6.06 to -6.26 eV while the ELUMO was found to be located at ca. -4.6 eV. Thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis revealed that iodinated aza-BODIPYs were stable up to approximately 300 °C. All compounds studied exhibit high photostability in toluene solution.

Abstract
Localization of the photosensitizer conjugation site in amphiphilic block copolymers is shown to have a great impact on photodynamic therapy efficiency. To this end, an asymmetric multifunctional derivative of the azadipyrromethene boron difluoride chelate (aza-BODIPY) was synthesized and inserted at specific locations in polypeptide-based rod-coil amphiphilic block copolymers. A study of the photophysical properties of the vesicle nanocarriers, obtained by self-assembly of these copolymers, as well as in vitro tests on two cancer cell lines were performed. This study aims at providing guidelines for the optimization of the synthetic design of therapeutic nanomedicines with minimal amounts of photosensitive molecules.

Abstract
Poor tumor penetration is a major challenge for the use of nanoparticles in anticancer therapy. Moreover, the inability to reach hypoxic tumor cells that are distant from blood vessels results in inadequate exposure to antitumor therapeutics and contributes to development of chemoresistance and increased metastasis. In the present study, we developed iRGD-modified nanoparticles for simultaneous tumor delivery of a photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG) and hypoxia-activated prodrug tirapazamine (TPZ). The iRGD-modified nanoparticles loaded with ICG and TPZ showed significantly improved penetration in both 3D tumor spheroids in vitro and orthotopic breast tumors in vivo. ICG-mediated photodynamic therapy upon irradiation with a near-IR laser induced hypoxia, which activated antitumor activity of the codelivered TPZ for synergistic cell-killing effect. In vivo studies demonstrated that the nanoparticles could efficiently deliver the drug combination in 4T1 orthotopic tumors. Primary tumor growth and metastasis were effectively inhibited by the iRGD-modified combination nanoparticles with minimal side effects. The results also showed the anticancer benefits of codelivering ICG and TPZ in a single nanoparticle formulation in contrast to a mixture of nanoparticles containing individual drugs. The study demonstrates the benefits of combining tumor-penetrating nanoparticles with hypoxia-activated drug treatment and establishes a delivery platform for PDT and hypoxia-activated chemotherapy.

Abstract
The photosensitized generation of singlet oxygen within tumor tissues during photodynamic therapy (PDT) is self-limiting, as the already low oxygen concentrations within tumors is further diminished during the process. In certain applications, to minimize photoinduced hypoxia the light is introduced intermittently (fractional PDT) to allow time for the replenishment of cellular oxygen. This condition extends the time required for effective therapy. Herein, we demonstrated that a photosensitizer with an additional 2-pyridone module for trapping singlet oxygen would be useful in fractional PDT. Thus, in the light cycle, the endoperoxide of 2-pyridone is generated along with singlet oxygen. In the dark cycle, the endoperoxide undergoes thermal cycloreversion to produce singlet oxygen, regenerating the 2-pyridone module. As a result, the photodynamic process can continue in the dark as well as in the light cycles. Cell-culture studies validated this working principle in vitro.

Abstract
A new photosensitizer (1) based on the 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) scaffold has been synthesized. 1 is water soluble and showed an intense absorption band at 490 nm (ɛ=77,600 cm(-1) m(-1)) and an emission at 514 nm. In vitro toxicity of 1 in the presence of light and in darkness has been studied with HeLa, HaCaT, MCF-7, and SCC-13 cell lines. Moreover, internalization studies of 1 in these cell lines were also performed. These results suggested that 1 is more toxic for SCC-13 and HeLa carcinoma cells than for the HaCaT non-cancerous immortal human keratinocytes. Toxicity upon light irradiation was due to the formation of singlet oxygen and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Cellular co-localization experiments revealed preferential localization of the dye in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Ruthenium polypyridyl complexes show great promise as new photodynamic therapy (PDT) agents. However, a lack of detailed understanding of their mode of action in cells poses a challenge to their development. We have designed a new Ru(II) PDT candidate that efficiently enters cells by incorporation of the lipophilic aromatic pdppz ([2,3-h]dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine) ligand and exhibits photoactivity through incorporation of 1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene ancillary ligands. Its photoreactivity toward biomolecules was studied in vitro, where light activation caused DNA cleavage. Cellular internalization occurred via an energy dependent mechanism. Confocal and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the complex localizes in various organelles, including the mitochondria. The complex is nontoxic in the dark, with cellular clearance within 96 h; however, upon visible light activation it induces caspase-dependent and reactive-oxygen-species-dependent apoptosis, with low micromolar IC50 values. This investigation greatly increases our understanding of such systems in cellulo, aiding development and realization of their application in cancer therapy.

JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY B-BIOLOGY 2015; 145:35-47. [PMID: 25771382 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2015.02.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2014] [Revised: 02/02/2015] [Accepted: 02/08/2015] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
A series of five mono-styryl and their corresponding symmetric di-styryl-2,6-diiodo-BODIPYs containing indolyl, pyrrolyl, thienyl or tri(ethylene glycol)phenyl groups were synthesized using Knoevenagel condensations. The yields for the condensation reactions were improved up to 40% using microwave irradiation (90°C for 1h at 400W) due to lower decomposition of BODIPYs upon prolonged heating. The spectroscopic, structural (including the X-ray of a di-styryl-2,6-diiodo-BODIPY) and in vitro properties of the BODIPYs were investigated. The extension of π-conjugation through the 3,5-dimethyls of the known phototoxic 2,6-diiodo-BODIPY 1 produced bathochromic shifts in the absorption and emission spectra, in the order of 63-125nm for the mono-styryl- and 128-220nm for the di-styryl-BODIPYs in DMSO. The largest red-shifts were observed for the indolyl-containing BODIPYs while the largest fluorescence quantum yields were observed for the tri(ethyleneglycol)phenylstyryl-BODIPYs. Among this series, only the mono-styryl-BODIPYs were phototoxic (IC50=2-15μM at 1.5J/cm(2)), and were observed to localize preferentially in the cell ER and mitochondria. On the other hand, the di-styryl-BODIPYs were found to have low or no phototoxicity (IC50>100μM at 1.5J/cm(2)). Among this series of compounds BODIPY 2a shows the most promise for application as photosensitizer in PDT.
