Light-activated compound offers hope for overcoming drug resistance in cancer treatment

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled an innovative technology to eliminate drug-resistant cancer cells using light. Professors Tae-Hyuk Kwon and Duyoung Min from the Department of Chemistry at UNIST, alongside Professor Taiho Park from POSTECH, have created a photoreactive compound capable of suppressing autophagy in cancer cells—one of the key mechanisms contributing to resistance against anticancer therapies.
