Key Points

The findings indicate that perylene diimide radical anions can be effective in hypoxia-induced environments, enhancing treatment.
Notably, the photothermal therapy using these agents improves targeting under low oxygen conditions when compared to conventional methods.
A molecular engineering approach was employed, focusing on the unique properties of four-arm perylene diimide chromophores for therapy.
These results highlight the potential for novel hypoxia-responsive photothermal agents in clinical applications, needing further validation.

Implication

This analysis demonstrates enhanced photothermal conversion in hypoxia-responsive agents, suggesting new therapies.

Abstract

Perylene diimide (PDI) radical anions have attracted increasing attention as hypoxia-responsive photothermal agents due to their strong near-infrared (NIR) absorption and efficient photothermal conversion. However, their biomedical application is often...
