Reactive Oxygen Species-Sensitive Nanophotosensitizers of Methoxy Poly(ethylene glycol)-Chlorin e6/Phenyl Boronic Acid Pinacol Ester Conjugates Having Diselenide Linkages for Photodynamic Therapy of Cervical Cancer Cells

The aim of this study is to fabricate nanophotosensitizers composed of methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG), chlorin e6 (Ce6), and phenylboronic acid pinacol ester (PBAP) with diselenide linkages for reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cervical cancer cells. To fabr...
