Photosensitizer-8

Photosensitizer-8 (Compound 4), 2-anthrol derivative, is an alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-activatable photosensitizer. Photosensitizer-8 undergoes a phosphate ester hydrolysis reaction in the presence of ALP, rapidly converting into the active photosensitizer 2-anthrol. Photosensitizer-8 exhibits cytotoxicity against ALP-overexpressing cancer cells (HeLa, A549, HCT116) after light exposure, with IC50 values of 14.3 μM, 21.6 μM and 17.5 μM, respectively, while showing no significant cytotoxicity against normal lung fibroblasts (WI-38) (IC50 ≥ 30 μM). Photosensitizer-8 can be used in photodynamic therapy research for ALP-overexpression-related cancers.
