Abstract:
Tumor is one of the diseases with the highest mortality rate in the world. In view of the high risk and high mortality of tumor, researchers around the world are committed to develop more accurate and rapid diagnostic strategies and more effective treatments to fight tumor. Gradually, integrated optical diagnosis and treatment technologies for tumors have emerged. Fluoroboron fluorescein (BODIPY) has been widely used in tumor phototherapy because of its excellent optical properties. In this paper, BODIPY and its derivatives are introduced in detail as photosensitizers, photothermal transformants, and contrast agents in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors (photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, photoacoustic imaging) and integration of diagnosis and treatment. The effects of different BODIPY structures and their derivatives in tumor diagnosis and treatment were evaluated systematically. This is of great significance for the rational design of near-infrared BODIPY materials with high singlet oxygen quantum yield, high photothermal conversion, and good light stability and solubility.

Mechanism diagram of photosensitizers in PDT
A photosensitizer (PS) can be activated from its ground state to a short-lived excited singlet state (PSEs) by light. Then, either the excited PS may decay back to the ground state by emitting fluorescence, or it can undergo intersystem crossing whereby the spin of its excited electron inverts to form a relatively long-lived triplet state (PSEt). The triplet excited PS can also decay back to the ground state by emitting phosphorescence, but most importantly it can directly interact with surrounding substrates (e.g., cell membrane or other biomolecules) to form radicals, which then react with O2 to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as superoxide anion radicals (O2-), hydroxyl radicals (.OH), and hydrogen peroxides (H2O2, type Ⅰ reaction). Alternatively, the energy of the excited PS can be directly transferred to 3O2 (itself a triplet in the ground state) to form 1O2 (type Ⅱ reaction)[6]
