Abstract
AbstractPhenazine derivatives are important bactericidal antibiotics and antiparasitic compounds which can be used in synergistic combinations with anticancer drugs in chemotherapy treatments. The development of synthetic phenazines with anticancer activity improves the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Chemical variations introduced at the phenazine core which is known as a chromophore with fluorescent properties provide advanced theranostic agents useful in optical bioimaging techniques and photodynamic anticancer therapy. This review summarizes the field of structural modifications of phenazine derivatives which have been tested against different parasitic and bacterial infections. The report highlights advances in design and biological evaluations of phenazines as anticancer drugs for the development of new chemotherapeutic as well as bio‐imaging reagents.
