CeF3-YF3-TbF3 Nanoparticle-Polymer–“Radachlorin” Conjugates for Combined Photodynamic Therapy: Synthesis, Characterization, and Biological Activity

Abstract: Promising material for hybrid photodynamic therapy consisting of Ce0.5Y0.35Tb0.15F3 crystalline nanoparticles and Radachlorin is reported. One possible option of conjugation of Ce0.5Y0.35Tb0.15F3 nanoparticles and Radachlorin using polyethylenimine (PEI) is tested. The energy transfer reaches 28%. It is shown that conjugates of CeF3—Tb3+ NPs and Radachlorin using PEI—are stable, and the distance between nanoparticles and photosensitizer molecules is about 5 nm.

“…In turn, the temperature dependence of the luminescence signal should be known [2,3]. Among a huge variety of inorganic phosphors including oxides and quantum dots, rare-earth-doped fluoride nanoparticles pay a special role due to high chemical and mechanical stability, bright narrow luminescence peaks [4], and, in some cases low cytotoxicity [5,6]. Yttrium fluoride is considered very promising host-matrix due to low phonon energy (around 500 cm -1 ), which leads to the decrease in the non-radiative transition probability.…”

“…The reported approach allows for obtaining of hydrophilic uniform BaGdF 5 with tunable size (controlled by Ba and Gd precursor concentrations) in the range from 45 to 85 nm, which were obtained at temperatures as low as 120 • C and an aging time of 10 h. More recently, W. Liu and co-workers have reported a hydrothermal synthesis of BaGdF 5 :RE microcrystals and sub-micron particles of octahedral shape, where environmentally friendly ionic liquid 1-octyl-3-methylimidiazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Omim]BF 4 ) were employed as structure-driven agent [24]. Moreover, due to efficient, fast, and homogeneous heat transfer, microwave synthesis has been implemented for lanthanide fluoride synthesis [25][26][27]. In particular, Y. Lei and co-workers [28] have reported a microwaveassisted synthesis of fluorescent hydrophilic nanocrystals with BaYF 5 host matrix, while our group has previously implemented microwave treatment at 200 • C for obtaining Tb, Eu, and Sm-doped BaGdF 5 nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution [20].…”
