The results showed that all compounds exhibited higher phototoxicity and lower dark toxicity against three kinds of tumor cell lines than BPD-MA. In particular, the most phototoxic compound 4d and 4j individually showed ICso values of 41 nmol/L and 33 nmol/L against HCT116 cell, which represented 7.8- and 9.7-fold increase of antitumor potency compared to BPD-MA, respectively, suggesting that they were promising photosensitizers for PDT applications because of their strong absorption at long wavelength （λmax 〉 650 nm）, high phototoxicitv, low dark cvtotoxicitv and ~ood water-solubility.展开更多

The results showed that all compounds exhibited much higher phototoxicity against tumor cells than talaporfin. SAR analysis indicated that PDT antitumor effect enhanced with the increase of carbon chain length of alkoxyl ether bonds at 3~1-position, and L-aspartic acid was superior to L-glutamic acid. In particular, the IC_50 values of most phototoxic compound 6 d were 0.20 mmol/L against A549 cell and0.41υmmol/L against B16-F10 cell, which individually represented 31-and 24-fold increase of antitumor potency compared to talaporfin, suggesting that it was a promising candidate photosensitizer(PS) for PDT applications due to its strong absorption at long wavelength, high phototoxicity, low dark cytotoxicity and good water-solubility.展开更多
