Spectroscopical study of bacteriopurpurinimide–naphthalimide conjugates for fluorescent diagnostics and photodynamic therapy

Abstract: Two novel bis(chromophoric) dyads ABPI-NI1 and ABPI-NI2 containing 1,8-naphthalimide and bacteriopurpurinimide units linked by p-phenylene-methylene (ABPI-NI1) and pentamethylene (ABPI-NI2) spacers were prepared to test their ability to be used in the design of effective agents for both photodynamic therapy (PDT) and fluorescent tumor imaging. Photophysical studies revealed that the emission from the naphthalimide chromophore in both conjugates was partially quenched due to resonance energy transfer between th… Show more

“…[1] Specifically in medicine and dentistry, light has become a powerful alternative approach for non-invasive therapy and diagnosis. [2,3] Hence many pre-clinical studies employ light either for detection of pathology or to induce biological responses. There is a need to clearly understand light-tissue interactions as an important step before translation into clinical practice.…”

“…[14][15][16][17] To overcome this difficulty a new approach which consists of the construction of bifunctional systems combining modalities of a PS and a diagnostic agent (so called theranostics) has been developed. [18][19][20][21][22] In such systems, a fluorescent moiety can be excited selectively and independently from the photosensitizer unit enabling fluorescence imaging without toxic effects. Thus, Pandey and coworkers have used cyanine dyes as fluorescent labels to prepare conjugates with PSs.…”

“…4-Pyrazolinyl-1,8-naphthalimide group in the studied compounds was found to easily undergo photooxidation yielding highly emissive 4-pyrazolyl-1,8naphthalimide derivatives. Recently, we have prepared conjugates of propargyl-15 2 ,17 3 -dimethoxy-13 1 -amide of bacteriochlorin e (BChl, Scheme 1) and N-aminobacteriopurpurinimide with 1,8-naphthalimide derivatives [13,14]. This type of fluorescent dyes exhibited high Stockes shifts, good photostability and imaging capability in vitro [14][15][16].…”
