Abstract

In this study, we report the enhanced photodynamic therapeutic (PDT) activity of Chlorin e6 (Ce6)-loaded graphene quantum dots (GQDs). GQDs reinforced the Ce6 loading, solubility, and fluorescence in aqueous media and enhanced ROS production and cancer cell death. This GQDs conjugated Ce6 could be a good platform for imaging-guided cancer therapy.
