FRET quenching of photosensitizer singlet oxygen generation.
The development of activatable photodynamic therapy (PDT) has demonstrated a utility for effective photosensitizer quenchers. However, little is known quantitatively about Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) quenching of photosensitizers, even though these quenchers are versatile and readily available. To characterize FRET deactivation of singlet oxygen generation, we attached various quen...
متن کاملChemical quenching of singlet oxygen by betanin.
Betanin is the best known natural dye belonging to the betacyanin family. In this work, efficient singlet oxygen quenching by betanin in deuterated water with the rate constant 1.20 ± 0.15 × 10(8) M(-1) s(-1) is reported, deduced from the (1)O2 phosphorescence decays measured as a function of betanin concentration. The quenching occurs by a chemical mechanism, as confirmed by the analysis of th...
متن کاملChemical quenching of singlet oxygen by carotenoids in plants.
Carotenoids are considered to be the first line of defense of plants against singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) toxicity because of their capacity to quench (1)O(2) as well as triplet chlorophylls through a physical mechanism involving transfer of excitation energy followed by thermal deactivation. Here, we show that leaf carotenoids are also able to quench (1)O(2) by a chemical mechanism involving their...
متن کاملSinglet molecular oxygen-quenching activity of carotenoids: relevance to protection of the skin from photoaging
Carotenoids are known to be potent quenchers of singlet molecular oxygen [O(2) ((1)Δ(g))]. Solar light-induced photooxidative stress causes skin photoaging by accelerating the generation of reactive oxygen species via photodynamic actions in which O(2) ((1)Δ(g)) can be generated by energy transfer from excited sensitizers. Thus, dietary carotenoids seem to participate in the prevention of photo...
متن کاملSinglet oxygen quenching by phenylamides and their parent compounds.
This paper demonstrates for the first time that plant metabolites of the phenylamide type, conjugates of putrescine with hydroxycinnamic acids (p-coumaric, caffeic and ferulic), possess 1O2 quenching properties. Data were obtained confirming that their acidic parent compounds were also able to quench 1O2, as did polyamines (putrescine, spermidine and spermine), and that this ability depends on ...
