Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) is an enzyme responsible for converting aldehyde functional groups into carboxylate metabolites. Elevated ALDH activity is a characteristic feature of cancer stem-like cells (CSCs). As a novel approach to target the CSC trait of overexpressing ALDH, we aimed to utilize ALDH activity for the selective accumulation of a photosensitizer in ALDH
