Extra Details:
Photosensitizer-8 (Compound 4); 2-anthrol derivative; is an alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-activatable photosensitizer. Photosensitizer-8 undergoes a phosphate ester hydrolysis reaction in the presence of ALP; rapidly converting into the active photosensitizer 2-anthrol. Photosensitizer-8 exhibits cytotoxicity against ALP-overexpressing cancer cells (HeLa; A549; HCT116) after light exposure; with IC50 values of 14.3 μM; 21.6 μM and 17.5 μM; respectively; while showing no significant cytotoxicity against normal lung fibroblasts (WI-38) (IC50 ≥ 30 μM). Photosensitizer-8 can be used in photodynamic therapy research for ALP-overexpression-related cancers[1].
