Development of green/red-absorbing chromophores based on a coumarin scaffold that are useful as caging groups
(Journal of Organic Chemistry. Vol.82, n.10 (2017), p.5398-5408, 2017-05)We report the design, synthesis, and spectroscopic characterization of a series of push–pull chromophores based on a novel coumarin scaffold in which the carbonyl of the lactone function of the original ... -
Exploring Structure–Activity Relationships in Photodynamic Therapy Anticancer Agents Based on Ir(III)-COUPY Conjugates
(Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2023, 66 (12), 2023-06-22)Photodynamic therapy holds great promise as a non-invasive anticancer tool against drug-resistant cancers. However, highly effective, non-toxic, and reliable photosensitizers with operability under ... -
Innovative light sources for phototherapy
(Biomolecular Concepts 2022, 13(1), 256-271, 2022)The use of light for therapeutic purposes dates back to ancient Egypt, where the sun itself was an innovative source, probably used for the first time to heal skin diseases. Since then, technical ... -
On the mechanism of Candida tropicalis biofilm reduction by the combined action of naturally-occurring anthraquinones and blue light
(PLoS ONE. Vol.12, n.7 (2017), e0181517, 2017-07)The photoprocesses involved in the photo-induced Candida tropicalis biofilm reduction by two natural anthraquinones (AQs), rubiadin (1) and rubiadin-1-methyl ether (2), were examined. Production of ...
