Energy transfer to ground state triplet molecular oxygen results in the generation of singlet
molecular oxygen (1O2), which has potent oxidizing ability. Irradiation of light, notably …

Intracellular communication and regulation in brain cells is controlled by the ubiquitous
Ca2+ and by redox signalling. Both of these independent signalling systems regulate most …

Cyclometalated iridium (III) complexes are of significant importance in the field of antitumor
photodynamic therapy (PDT), whether they exist as single molecules or are incorporated …

A series of hetero-dinuclear Ru–Os complexes have been constructed by combining
mononuclear modules derived from homo-dinuclear Ru–Ru complexes with dual PDT/PTT …

A series of cyclometalated Ir (III) complexes with morpholine and piperazine groups are
designed as dual photosensitizers and photothermal agents for more efficient antitumor …

This work investigates the influence of laser irradiation parameters (wavelength, power
density and exposure time) on singlet oxygen (1O2) generation efficiency. Chemical trap (L …

Observing quantum mechanical characteristics in biological processes is a surprising and
important discovery. One example, which is gaining more experimental evidence and …

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the singlet form of oxygen as a
regulator of the physiological functions of cells. The use of photosensitisers is a classical …

Programmed cell death (apoptosis) is essential part of the process of tissue regeneration
that also plays role in the mechanism of pathology. The phenomenon of fast and transient …

Abstract Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is activated under stress response. Its involvement
in cell protection, including energy metabolism and quality control makes it a promising …
