Key Points

To develop a ZnPPA@Tz-BSA complex as an effective photosensitizer for tumor photodynamic therapy.
Utilized tetrazine-modified bovine serum albumin and Zinc porphyrin to create the complex ZnPPA@Tz-BSA.
Evaluated the complex's solubility and reactivity in vitro.
Assessed the effectiveness of the complex in generating reactive oxygen species.
ZnPPA@Tz-BSA demonstrated enhanced water solubility compared to other photosensitizers.
The complex showed improved generation of reactive oxygen species, which is crucial for photodynamic therapy efficacy.

Implication

ZnPPA@Tz-BSA enhances photosensitizer efficacy in tumor therapy, suggesting improved cancer treatment outcomes.

Abstract

We present ZnPPA@Tz-BSA, a complex of tetrazine (Tz)-modified bovine serum albumin (Tz-BSA) and Zinc porphyrin (ZnPPA), designed as a tumor-pretargeting photosensitizer. ZnPPA@Tz-BSA shows enhanced water solubility and improved reactive oxygen...
