1. Synthesis, Characterization, Spectroelectrochemical, Photophysical and HSA-Binding Properties of Novel and Versatile meso-Tetra(4-pyridylvinylphenyl)porphyrins Coordinated to Ruthenium(II)-Polypyridyl Derivatives
The free-base meso-tetra(4-pyridylvinylphenyl)porphyrin (1a) and its zinc(II) complex were synthesized and then functionalized with [Ru(bpy)2Cl]+ units (2a and 2b) via conventional methods and evaluated in terms of photophysical, electrochemical and biological aspects. All porphyrins present moderate singlet oxygen production and fluorescence quantum yield,

2. An insight on the role of photosensitizer nanocarriers for Photodynamic Therapy
ABSTRACT Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a modality of cancer treatment in which tumor cells are destroyed by reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by photosensitizers following its activation with visible or near infrared light. The PDT success is dependent on different factors namely on the efficiency of the photosensitizer deliver and targeting ability. In

3. Nanotechnology, Light and Chemical Action: an Effective Combination to Kill Cancer Cells
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive and effective procedure for treatment of cancer, based on the combination of a drug (photosensitizer, PS), light (visible or near-infrared, NIR) and induced local formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and radicals. Despite its less significant side effects as compared with conventional therapies, many e

4. Estudos quimiométricos da pheo formulada em pluronics®: ação fotodinâmica Sobre Artemia salina
The self-aggregation of pheophytin, a possible photosensitizer for Photodynamic Therapy, is solved by formulation in polymeric surfactant as P-123. The photosensitizer incorporation was found to be time dependent, exhibiting two steps: a partition at the micellar interface followed by an incorporation into the micelle core. The photodynamic efficiency of the

5. Liposomal photosensitizers: potential platforms for anticancer photodynamic therapy
Photodynamic therapy is a well-established and clinically approved treatment for several types of cancer. Antineoplastic photodynamic therapy is based on photosensitizers, i.e., drugs that absorb photons translating light energy into a chemical potential that damages tumor tissues. Despite the encouraging clinical results with the approved photosensitizers a

6. Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) for the treatment of malaria, leishmaniasis and trypanosomiasis
A photodynamic effect occurs when photosensitiser molecules absorb light and dissipate the absorbed energy by transferring it to biological acceptors (usually oxygen), generating an excess of reactive species that are able to force cells into death pathways. Several tropical diseases present physiopathological aspects that are accessible to the application o

7. Tetracationic alkylated porphyrin: Photosensitizers for use in photodynamic therapy of skin cancers / Porfirinas tetracatiônicas alquiladas: sistemas porfirínicos fotossensibilizadores para uso em terapia fotodinâmica do câncer de pele
A series of photosensitizers (PS), which are meso-substituted tetra-cationic porphyrins, was synthesized and characterized in order to study the role of amphiphilicity and zinc insertion in PDT efficacy. The photophysical properties of all compounds are quite similar (absorption maxima in the same region of the spectra, f 0.02; ~0.8). An increase in lipophil

8. Avaliação microbiológica in vivo de lesões de cárie profundas tratadas pela terapia fotodinâmica / In vivo microbiological analisys of deep carious lesions treated by photodynamic therapy
The traditional treatment of dentinal caries lesions has been based on the mechanical removal of all demineralized dentine, using hand or rotatory instruments. As an alternative to removal of the cariogenic organisms by drilling, the purpose of this study was to eliminate them through photosensitization promoted by irradiation with a low power laser associat

9. Relation between photodynamic efficiency, cytotoxic and molecular properties of dyes for application in photodynamic therapy / Relação entre eficiência fotodinâmica, citotoxicidade e propriedades moleculares de corantes para aplicação em terapia fotodinâmica
A terapia fotodinâmica consiste em uma nova e promissora técnica de tratamento de câncer. O tratamento se baseia na administração tópica ou sistêmica de um fotossensibilizador, que se acumula seletivamente em tecido tumoral. Na presença de luz e oxigênio o fotossensibilizador produz espécies tóxicas levando as células à morte. Neste trabalho foi

10. Synthesis and study of photoinduced properties of phenothiazine derivatives on biomimetic systems / Síntese e estudo das propriedades fotoinduzidas de derivados fenotiazínicos em sistemas biomiméticos
The effect of interfaces on photophysical and photochemical properties of methylene blue (MB) and its derivatives was studied in this work, aiming to emploit their potencial as photosensitizers (PS) in photodynamic therapy.The presence of MB in SDS solutions affect the micelle equilibrium decreasing the apparent critical micelle concentration of SDS from 7mm

11. STUDY OF THE AGGREGATION AND PHOTOBLEACHING DYNAMIC OF METHYLENE BLUE AND ORTO-TOLUIDINE BLUE AS REGARDS THEIR PHOTODYNAMIC EFFECTIVENESS / Estudo da dinâmica de fotodegradação e agregação das fenotiazinas azul de metileno e azul orto-toluidina com relação à eficiência fotodinâmica
Photodynamic therapy may be a viable alternative to treat localized infections, although to obtain a resourceful clinical application, parameters linked with photodynamic efficiency must be analyzed in order to achieve quantifiable results. The aims of this study were to investigate the aggregation dynamic of the photosensitizers methylene blue and orto-tolu

12. Oleic acid influence as a cutaneous penetration enhancer for 5- aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy of skin cancer: in vitro and in vivo studies in animal model. / Influência do ácido oléico como promotor de absorção cutânea para o ácido 5-aminolevulínico na terapia fotodinâmica do câncer de pele: estudos in vitro e in vivo em modelo animal
The topical administration of 5-ALA has been distinguished on skin cancer photodynamic therapy (PDT) because of its efficiency in the treatment of tumors and the reduced phototoxic collateral effects. However, this effectiveness is limited by its low penetration in the skin. A proposal to optimize the 5-ALA penetration in the skin is the use of cutaneous pen
