The main objective of this project is to synthesize new amphiphilic phthalocyanines and naphthalocyanines derivatives for use as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy. Our previously results demonstrate that an amphiphilic combination of peripheral groups into the macrocyclic provide good solubility in physiological media, reduction in their aggregation process and an increase in the i…
The main objective of this project is to obtain, characterize and assess the photochemical, photophysical and phototherapeutic properties of new phthalocyanines derivatives for use as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy. The project proposes the synthesis and characterization of new symmetrical and asymmetrical phthalocyanines linked to different peripheral groups, such as carbohydra…
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a technique that is based on topical or systemic administration of a photosensitizer that after accumulate in diseased tissue and exposed to light of the appropriate wavelength are capable to generates oxygen reactive species inactivating or lead to cell death. Among the currently studied photosensitizers can highlight hypericin, which also has great potentia…
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a proposed technique for the treatment of degenerative diseases and infections that is based on topical or systemic administration of a photosensitizer that after accumulation in diseased tissue, is exposed to light of appropriate wavelength and generates reactive oxygen species capable of inactivating or lead to cell death.Some photosensitizers are already c…
