Efficiency of the cationic porphyrin, TMPyP4, in inducing cytotoxicity in mouse melanoma cells in vitro : Subcellular localization and photodynamic activity

As a minimally invasive modality, photodynamic therapy achieves selective tumor eradication through the synergistic action of a photosensitizing agent, visible light illumination, and cellular oxygen. Porphyrin-based compounds remain among the most extensively studied photosensit...
