Recent advances in Feringa motors have opened up new opportunities for molecular mechanotherapy. Here, strategies for improving the water solubility and biocompatible activating wavelength of the motor towards its bioapplications are briefly introduced. Importantly, examples of using Feringa motors as potential anticancer drugs or antimicrobials will be discussed.
