2022年6月17日 · Under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, ER-targeting photodynamic therapy (PDT) induced by Par-ICG-Lipo could promote the release of danger-signaling molecules (DAMPs) and tumor antigens (TAAs) in vivo, which significantly enhanced the immunogenicity in vivo and thus stimulates a strong antitumor immune response.
Recent progress in tumor photodynamic immunotherapy
2020年7月1日 · Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising alternative approach for effective cancer treatment, which can directly destroy local tumor cells due to the generation of cytotoxic singlet oxygen and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor cells. Intriguingly, PDT-mediated cell death is also associated with anti-tumor immune response.
