COUPY Coumarins as Novel Mitochondria-Targeted Photodynamic Therapy Anticancer Agents

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) for cancer treatment has drawn increased attention over the last decades. Herein, we introduce a novel family of low-molecular-weight coumarins as potential PDT anticancer tools. Through a systematic study with a library of 15 compounds, we have established a detailed stru...
