Recent advances in the design of organic photothermal agents for cancer treatment: A review

Chemoselective reaction of methoxyaminomethyl BODIPYs with unprotected carbohydrates: a powerful tool for accessing BODIPY neoglycosides

“…13 BODIPY derivatives possess many ideal photosensitizer (PS) features, which makes them useful agents in photodynamic therapy (PDT), 14 and, more recently, in photothermal therapy (PTT). 15 They have also been used in optoelectronic devices, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) 16 and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). 17 Derivatives of BODIPY are frequently used in biological imaging.…”
