| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this project is to develop a novel molecular platform for an activatable photosensitizer of which fluorescence and photosensitizing activity are enhanced as desired by exploiting a unique property of organobismuth compounds. The final goal of this project is to establish a novel photodynamic diagnosis and therapeutic method with the activatable photosensitizers. In detail, we aimed to develop bismuth-fused fluorophore with prodrug function targeting to tumor-specific enzymes and to establish an image-guided therapeutic method by the Bi-containing photosensitizers.
