Abstract
An activatable photosensitizer based on methylene blue was developed and validated for its efficacy in the selective killing of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase expressing cells. The 1O2 deactivation via bond breakage, rapid in situ enzymatic photosensitivity conversion, long lysosomal retention, and nucleus relocation collectively contribute to its strong and selective photodynamic effects.Entities:
