HBT-CUR
HBT-CUR is a lysosome-targeted and polarity-responsive tumor photosensitizer. HBT-CUR generates singlet oxygen under light irradiation. HBT-CUR induces photodynamic apoptosis through oxidative stress. As a polarity-sensitive NIR fluorescent probe, HBT-CUR distinguishes tumor cells and tissues from normal ones. HBT-CUR enables tumor-specific in vivo fluorescence imaging with rapid response and long-lasting duration. HBT-CUR is used for breast cancer research.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
HBT-CUR (10 mM; 1 min) generates reactive oxygen species under LED light irradiation in a cell-free DCFH assay[1].
HBT-CUR has small calculated ΔEST values (0.07-0.27 eV) that accelerate ISC and promote efficient ROS generation[1].
HBT-CUR produces singlet oxygen, as confirmed by EPR spectroscopy[1].
HBT-CUR (5 μM; 48 h) exhibits low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility across human cancer and normal cell lines[1].
HBT-CUR (5-10 μM; 20 min) enables specific imaging of lysosomal polarity in tumor cells and distinguishes them from normal cells based on polarity differences[1].
HBT-CUR (5 μM; 20 min) exerts a tumor cell-killing effect under LED irradiation in MCF-7 cells[1].
HBT-CUR (5 μM; 20 min) induces tumor cell apoptosis at the cellular level by generating singlet oxygen to mediate photodynamic activity in MCF-7 cells[1].
