Covalent organic frameworks as nanocarriers of tailored BODIPY for phototheragnostic applications

Key Points

• An effective strategy improves photodynamic therapy through tailored BODIPY nanocarriers.
• Enhanced bioimaging potential is achieved when using covalent organic frameworks for drug delivery.
• Fluorophores are grafted onto nanocarriers to boost fluorescence signals for better imaging.
• This technique may enable more effective treatment options for diseases, including cancer.
