Distinct photo-oxidation-induced cell death pathways lead to selective killing of human breast cancer cells

Abstract Lack of effective treatments for aggressive breast cancer is still a major global health problem. We have previously reported that photodynamic therapy using methylene blue as photosensitizer (MB-PDT) massively kills metastatic human breast cancer, marginally affecting healthy cells. In thi...
