Photodynamic therapy (PDT) mostly relies on the generation of singlet oxygen, via the
excitation of a photosensitizer, so that target tumor cells can be destroyed. PDT can be …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been used as an anti-tumor treatment method for a long
time and photosensitizers (PS) can be used in various types of tumors. Originally, light is an …

Curing cancer has been one of the greatest conundrums in the modern medical field. To
reduce side-effects associated with the traditional cancer therapy such as radiotherapy and …

In this Review article, we systematically summarize the design and applications of various
kinds of long-lived emissive probes for bioimaging and biosensing via time-resolved …

Photothermal therapy (PTT) is recognized as a promising approach for cancer theranostics
via the nonradiative conversion of light into heat energy. PTT treatment is able to reduce the …

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been considered a noninvasive and cost-effective
modality for tumor treatment. However, the complexity of tumor microenvironments poses …

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a powerful noninvasive tool with which to study the
matching of oxygen delivery to oxygen utilization and the number of new publications …

Checkpoint blockade immunotherapy relies on energized cytotoxic T cells attacking tumour
tissue systemically. However, for many cancers, the reliance on T cell infiltration leads to low …

Diarylethene (DAE) photoswitches, known for their reversible photoinduced cyclization and
cycloreversion reactions, have shown great promise in various fields such as optical data …

The ability to influence key properties of molecular systems by using light holds much
promise for the fields of materials science and life sciences. The cornerstone of such …
