Encapsulation of a Ruthenium(II) Complex in Polylactide Nanoparticles: A Route to Remarkable Cellular Uptake for Photodynamic Therapy of Cancer
2019-10-21
Abstract excerpt
Ruthenium complexes, and especially ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes, have attracted a lot of attention as potential photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy. However, some are unsuitable due to their low cellular uptake, potentially due to their relatively low degree of lipophilicity, which prevents them from penetrating tumor cells. Here, we report the conjugation of a non-cell-penetrating ruthenium polypyri...
