Abstract
- The antibiotic therapy usually leads to the bacterial resistance, and the traditional photosensitizer was in "always on" state with damage to normal tissue. Fortunately, the activatable near-infrared photosensitizer has a high depth of tissue penetration, and can be specifically released with low side effect. Therefore, we designed and synthesized a penicillin G acylase (PGA) activable photosensitizer (NFh-PGA), which could be activated to produce NFh-OH. NFh-OH can product singlet oxygen (1O 2) under near-infrared light 730 nm excitation, and have an excellent antibacterial effect in vitro and in vivo. The probe accelerates the healing of bacterial infection wounds by near-infrared imaging guiding PDT. This work provides a strategy for the integrated design of diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infection. [Display omitted] ● A novel activable photosensitizer (NFh-PGA) by PGA was developed. ● The fluorescence and phototherapeutic ability of the probe kept the OFF state in the normal physiological environment. ● The NFh-PGA could be specifically activated and efficiently generating singlet oxygen (1O 2) under 730 nm laser. ● The NFh-PGA played an excellent bactericidal effect and accelerated the healing speed of infected wounds.
