SQN400
SQN400 (m-THPBC) is a near-infrared Photosensitizer and singlet oxygen-mediated photodynamic tissue necrosis inducer. SQN400 is activated by near-infrared light at a wavelength of 740 nm. SQN400 exhibits a dose threshold in photodynamic liver necrosis, beyond which the extent of necrosis correlates with the light product. SQN400 induces full-thickness necrosis in implanted mouse colorectal tumors. SQN400 is used in the study of colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Animal Model:BALB/c (female adult)[1]
-
Dosage:1.2 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.v. (tail vein); once; 24 h before irradiation
-
Result:Bleached rapidly, with almost no photosensitizer fluorescence detectable from the tumor surface after 30 s of irradiation.
Showed an initial bleaching rate approximately 20 times greater than that of mTHPC under similar conditions.
Produced full-thickness tumor necrosis in all animals at 1.2 mg/kg with 3 J cm-2 of 739 nm light 24 h after administration, with tumor thickness ranging from 3.7 to 5.0 mm.
