Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The inside cover picture shows</bold> an amphiphilic BODPY–porphyrin conjugate BZnPP, a new PDT agent, together with its tumour cell uptake and significant two‐photon‐induced tumour cell imaging and cytotoxicity. BZnPP consists of a hydrophobic BODIPY moiety and a hydrophilic tetra(ethylene glycol) chain bridging a cationic triphenylphosphonium group linked to an amphiphilic porphyrin matrix ZnP through acetylide linkers at its meso positions.
