Targeted Photodynamic Therapy Agent with a Built-In Apoptosis Sensor for in Vivo Near-Infrared Imaging of Tumor Apoptosis Triggered by its Photosensitization in Situ
Imaging apoptotic cells or tissues after cancer therapy in situ would be a very useful tool for assessing proper treatment conditions and therapeutic outcome. By combining therapeutic and imaging functions, we have designed a multifunctional, membrane-permeable, and cancer-specific agent that trigge...
