The integration of an aggregation induced emission (AIE)-active Ir(III) complex and upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) has achieved a NIR-irradiated photosensitizer (PS), UCNPs@Ir-2-N. This PS has satisfactory biocompatibility, excellent phototoxicity, good accumulation in cells and high O generation ability, thereby effectively killing 4T1 mouse cancer cells . This work has potential for future photodynamic therapy (PDT) applications.
将聚集诱导发光(AIE)活性的 Ir(III) 配合物与上转换纳米粒子(UCNPs)集成,得到了近红外辐射敏化剂(PS)UCNPs@Ir-2-N。该 PS 具有良好的生物相容性、优异的光毒性、良好的细胞积累能力和高 O2 生成能力,从而有效地杀死了 4T1 小鼠癌细胞。这项工作为未来的光动力治疗(PDT)应用提供了潜力。
