Mal-Pc
Mal-Pc is a versatile molecular photosensitizer designed based phthalocyanine and maleimides. Mal-Pc can react with GSH to deplete GSH and reduce aggregation, thereby improving ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species)-mediated effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in cancer cells.

Biological Activity
Having two maleimide axial substituents, Mal-Pc exhibits faster accumulation in cancer cells and then can react with GSH to deplete GSH and reduce aggregation, thereby improving ROS-mediated anticancer effect of PDT[1].
The fluorescence imaging demonstrated that Mal-Pc eliminate from normal cells faster due to the highly hydrophilic reaction product[1].
