After the activation of PSs, the cancer cell death mechanism plays an important role in the targeting of particular cancer cell receptor (globulins and Low-Density might occur in three main pathways (Figure 1), namely, apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy [33,65,66].

After improved second-generation PSs, such as Levulan , Alasens , and Foscan have been introduced extensive studies, new and improved second-generation PSs, such as Levulan®®, Alasens®®, and for PDT application (Table 1). Although these are widely used for various cancer treatments, their Foscan have been introduced for PDT application (Table 1). Although these are widely used for clinical usage is limited by various drawbacks such as lack of chemical purity, a longer half-life, various cancer treatments, their clinical usage is limited by various drawbacks such as lack of accumulation in tissues and poor ability in relation to depth of tissue penetration [31–39]. chemical purity, a longer half-life, accumulation in tissues and poor ability in relation to depth of Subsequently, there are some research reports on PSs with potent pharmaceutical properties tissue penetration [31–39]. to overcome the shortcomings of first- (Porphyrin based sensitisers) and second-generation Subsequently, there are some research reports on PSs with potent pharmaceutical properties to (non-porphyrin derivatives) PSs [35–37]. These drawbacks of current PSs specifically imply the overcome the shortcomings of first- (Porphyrin based sensitisers) and second-generation (non- need for new PSs as anticancer agents from natural resources.

These drawbacks of current PSs specifically imply the need for with anticipated pharmacological properties and clinical application is an inspiring task. Recently, new PSs as anticancer agents from natural resources. The discovery of new PS compounds with a greater number of plant-based compounds have been reported for their anticancer activity, and these anticipated pharmacological properties and clinical application is an inspiring task. Recently, a compounds are pharmaceutically very important for the development of potent drugs. The use of light greater number of plant-based compounds have been reported for their anticancer activity, and these to activate the bioactivities of natural products is generally called photopharmacology (a combination compounds are pharmaceutically very important for the development of potent drugs.
