Interaction of proteins with small molecules is important in understanding delivery and transport of different therapeutic agents, including drugs. In the present study, we investigated the interaction between hematoporphyrin (HP), the principal component of photosensitizing drug with bovine serum albumin

International journal of molecular sciences, 16(9), 20375-20391 (2015-09-08)
Photofrin/photodynamic therapy (PDT) at sub-lethal doses induced a transient stall in proteasome activity in surviving A549 (p53(+/+)) and H1299 (p53(-/-)) cells as indicated by the time-dependent decline/recovery of chymotrypsin-like activity. Indeed, within 3 h of incubation, Photofrin invaded the cytoplasm

Neuroblastoma is one of the most aggressive cancers and has a complex form of differentiation. We hypothesized that advanced cellular differentiation may alter the susceptibility of neuroblastoma to photodynamic treatment (PDT) and confer selective survival advantage. We demonstrated that hematoporphyrin

Synthesis, photophysical and metal ion recognition properties of a series of amino acid-linked free-base and Zn-porphyrin derivatives (5-9) are reported. These porphyrin derivatives showed favorable photophysical properties including high molar extinction coefficients (>1 × 10(5) m(-1) cm(-1) for the Soret
