Abstract:Melanoma, a highly aggressive tumor, presents substantial therapeutic challenges. Although imaging-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a promising treatment approach, conventional photosensitizers (PSs) suffer from aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) and hypoxia-induced therapeutic resistance. Aggregationinduced emission (AIE) PSs can overcome ACQ. However, their intrinsic hydrophobicity signiffcantly restricts biological applicability and causes uncontrolled aggregation. Therefore, OTTID, a water-soluble D-π-A type I AIE PS, was developed through structural modiffcation and...
