Artificial Intelligence in Photodynamic Therapy: From Molecular Design of Photosensitizers to Intelligent Delivery, Adaptive Dosimetry, and Personalized Prognostication of Results

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive therapeutic approach based on the light-induced activation of a photosensitizer in the presence of molecular oxygen, resulting in the generation of reactive oxygen species, including singlet oxygen. Despite local selectivity and...

MALDI Mass Spectrometry Imaging in Alzheimer’s Disease Lipidomics: Matrix Selection, Spatial Lipid Pathology and Emerging Analytical Strategies

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) involves not only amyloid-β and tau pathology but also extensive disturbances in lipid metabolism, membrane organization, neuroinflammatory signaling, and tissue homeostasis. Conventional lipidomics has identified changes in phospholipids, sphingolipids,...
