Hydroxyphthalocyanines as Potential Photodynamic Agents for Cancer Therapy
摘要:
A series of benzyl-substituted phthalonitriles, substituted at the 3-, 4-, and 4,5-positions, underwent varied condensations with phthalonitrile to give a series of protected (monohydroxy- and polyhydroxyphthalocyaninato)zinc(II) derivatives which were readily cleaved to give several hydroxyphthalocyanines (ZnPc) (phthalocyanine phenol analogues). Their efficacy as sensitizers for the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cancer was evaluated on the EMT-B mammary tumor cell line. In vitro, the 2-hydroxy ZnPc (32) was the most active, followed by the 2,3- and 2,9-dihydroxy ZnPc (39 and 45), with the 2,9,16-trihydroxy ZnPc (33) exhibiting the least activity. In vivo, the monohydroxy derivative 32 and the 2,3-dihydroxy derivative 39 were both efficient in inducing tumor necrosis at 1 mu mol kg(-1), but complete tumor regression was poor, even at 2 mu mol/kg. In contrast, the 2,9-dihydroxy isomer 45, at 2 mu mol kg(-1), induced tumor necrosis in all animals treated, with 75% complete regression. These results underline the importance of the position of the substituents on the Pc macrocycle to optimize tumor response and confirm the PDT potential of the unsymmetrical Pcs bearing functional groups on adjacent benzene rings.
The synthesis of triazolephthalocyanines bearingcrownether and aza-crown ether substituents is described. Different substituents have been introduced on the nitrogen atom of the aza-crown moiety to improve the solubility and the intrinsic amphiphilic character of these macrocycles. The crowned triazolephthalocyanines described have been prepared by a statistical procedure, and also by different variations

A biotinylated glutathione (GSH)‐responsive zinc(II) phthalocyanine has been prepared and characterized. With a 2,4‐dinitrobenzenesulfonyl moiety, its fluorescence emission and singlet oxygen generation were silenced in its intact state. Upon exposure to high concentration of GSH, its photosensitizing properties were restored in phosphate buffered saline and inside tumor cells. It also showed preferential
