Abstract:
Nitric oxide photodonor (NOD) conjugated perylene tetracarboxylate ester (TPT) based fluorescent organic TPT(NOD)4 nanoparticles (NPs) with aggregation induced NIR emission have shown photoinduced nitric oxide delivery along with a red to green emission transition. Time dependent imaging and dose dependent cytotoxicity studies of these NPs using U87MG cells demonstrate the self monitoring and real time reporting abilities and potential anticancer activity of the system, respectively.
