Hydrophilic Chlorin e6-Poly(amidoamine) Dendrimer Nanoconjugates for Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy

In photodynamic therapy (PDT), chlorin e6 (Ce6), with its high phototoxic potential and strong absorption of visible light, penetrates deeply into photodamaged tissue. However, despite this fact, the direct application of Ce6 to PDT has been limited by its low water solubility and poor cancer cell l...
