“…The biological activities of such molecules can be restored upon removal of these photoactivatable groups by irradiation with a suitable wavelength of light. To date, various PPGs or PCs have been developed based on o-nitrobenzyl, 7-14 coumarinyl, 5,[7][8][9][10][11][15][16][17] anthracenyl, [7][8][9][10]18,19 quinolinyl, [7][8][9][10]20,21 p-hydroxyphenacyl, 7-10,22 o-hydroxycinnamate, [8][9][10][23][24][25][26][27] rhodamine, 10,28 cyanine, 8,10,11,29 BODIPY, 8,10,11,30 etc. These compounds are successfully used for non-invasive spatiotemporal control over the release of biologically important compounds such as anticancer agents, antibiotics, biomolecules, neurotransmitters, fragrances, fluorescent probes, etc.…”
