Abstract
Compounds with a nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) skeleton exhibit prominent useful properties including environmental sensitivity, high reactivity toward amines and biothiols (including H2S) accompanied by distinct colorimetric and fluorescent changes, fluorescence-quenching ability, and small size, all of which facilitate biomolecular sensing and self-assembly. Amines are important biological nucleophiles, and the unique activity of NBD ethers with amines has allowed for site-specific protein labelling and for the detection of enzyme activities. Both H2S and biothiols are involved in a wide range of physiological processes in mammals, and misregulation of these small molecules is associated with numerous diseases including cancers. In this review, we focus on NBD-based synthetic probes as advanced chemical tools for biomolecular sensing. Specifically, we discuss the sensing mechanisms and selectivity of the probes, the design strategies for multi-reactable multi-quenching probes, and the associated biological applications of these important constructs. We also highlight self-assembled NBD-based probes and outline future directions for NBD-based chemosensors. We hope that this comprehensive review will facilitate the development of future probes for investigating and understanding different biological processes and aid the development of potential theranostic agents.

Abstract
As a kind of toxic gas, carbon monoxide (CO) can hinder uptake of oxygen in humans. However, more and more studies have shown that CO is an important gaseous messenger in the body and playing an indispensable role in intracellular signaling pathways. So, it is necessary to develop an analytical method to study CO in living organisms. Although there are many CO-responsive probes, most of them have the disadvantages of a small Stokes shift or short emission wavelength. In order to address the above issue, a novel probe (FDX-CO) with a large Stokes shift (190 nm) and long emission wavelength (770 nm) was firstly synthesized to detect CO. The probe shows high sensitivity and superior selectivity toward CO. Moreover, the probe was successfully used for visualizing exogenous and endogenous CO in cells by fluorescence imaging, 3D quantification analysis and flow cytometric analysis. More importantly, FDX-CO could excellently detect CO in mice, which suggests that this probe has the potential ability to image CO in vivo. This probe can be viewed as a useful tool in the research of CO.

Abstract
To selectively detect H2S based on the thiolysis reaction of 7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD), amines attracted increasing attention since NBD amine is regarded as a new H2S reaction site. Herein, a novel fluorescent probe, triphenylamine piperazine NBD (TPA-Pz-NBD), was developed. The results showed that it exhibited high selectivity towards H2S via fluorescence spectroscopy and solution color. Furthermore, TPA-Pz-NBD not only detected H2S by a dual-channel, turn-on fluorescence signal at 500 nm and turn-off fluorescence signal at 545 nm, respectively, but also displayed a wide detection range of 0-125 μM. In addition, living cell imaging results indicated that TPA-Pz-NBD holds potential for the detection of intracellular H2S.

Abstract
As a water-soluble carbon monoxide-releasing molecule, CORM-3 is widely used as a CO donor to study CO in the life system. CORM-3 can also replace gaseous CO as a therapeutic drug molecule to reveal the physiological and pathological effects of CO in life. Therefore, it is of great importance to visualize and track CORM-3 in the life system. We develop herein a near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe CORM3-NIR that can detect CORM-3 both in living cells and in vivo effectively. The probe is based on the unique fluorescent QCy7 and uses a 4-nitrobenzyl group to trap CORM-3, and importantly, it shows good water solubility and responds rapidly, selectively, and sensitively to CORM-3, releasing QCy-7 and producing distinct colorimetric and significant NIR fluorescence change signals at 743 nm. The Stokes shift is up to 81 nm. The probe is also able to detect CORM-3 ratiometrically with fluorescence at 743 and 600 nm. Besides, with low cytotoxicity, the probe also shows good NIR fluorescence bioimaging ability for CORM-3 in live cells and mice, which indicates that CORM3-NIR is an effective probe for tracking and studying CORM-3 in the life system.

Abstract
Toxic hepatitis which is induced by chemical substance is a serious threat to human health. More and more studies have shown that peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is related with the development of toxic hepatitis. So it is important to find a tool to study ONOO- change during the diagnosis and therapy of toxic hepatitis. Herein, a series of novel near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence dyes (DDM-R) with long emission wavelength (740-770 nm) and large Stokes shift (~200 nm) are developed. Among the dyes, DDM-OH with great spectral performance and facilely modified feature is used to construct probe DDM-ONOO-. The probe have the preference of high sensitivity and excellent selectivity for ONOO-. In addition, DDM-ONOO- was applied in detecting exogenous and endogenous ONOO- in cells and further used in detecting ONOO- of CCl4-induced toxic hepatitis in cells by fluorescence imaging, 3D quantification analysis, flow cytometry. More importantly, by visualizing ONOO-, the probe was used to monitor the diagnosis of CCl4-induced toxic hepatitis in mice and evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of hepatoprotective medicines (NAC, SM, DDB). The results show that the probe will provide a powerful tool for the diagnosis and treatment of toxic hepatitis.

Abstract
Hydrogen polysulfides (H2Sn, n > 1), which are important reactive sulfur species, play crucial roles in H2S-related bioactivities, including antioxidation, cytoprotection, activation of ion channels, transcription factor functions and tumour suppression. Monitoring H2Snin vivo is of significant interest for exploring the physiological roles of H2Sn and the exact mechanisms of H2Sn-related diseases. Herein, we conceive a novel near-infrared fluorescent probe, NIR-CPS, that is used to detect H2Sn in living cells and in vivo. With the advantages of high sensitivity, good selectivity and a remarkably large Stokes shift (100 nm), NIR-CPS was successfully applied in visualizing H2Sn in living cells and mice. More importantly, NIR-CPS monitored H2Sn stimulated by lipopolysaccharide in tumour-bearing mice. These results demonstrate that the NIR-CPS probe is a potentially powerful tool for the detection of H2Snin vivo, thus providing a valuable approach in H2Sn-related medical research.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) typically plays biphasic biological roles in living organisms with subnormal H2S exerting cytoprotective effects such as participating in cardioprotective signaling pathways while H2S with higher-than-normal concentrations in localized tissues acting the opposite way such as inhibiting mitochondrial respiration. Such concentration-dependent biological and pathological roles of H2S with the wide involvement of mitochondria and the elusive feature of H2S definitely highlight the vital significance of fast and precise estimation of the physiological level of H2S in specific microenvironments, particularly within cellular mitochondria. In this work, we developed a new type of fluorescent probe (QcyCHO) featured with H2S-triggered off-to-on near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence conversion within ~ 10 min, limit of detection (LOD) down to 8.3 nM, and high recognition specificity over other similarly interfering species. The ideal mitochondrion-targeting ability, high recognition specificity over typical interfering substances and other physiologically relevant species, and the ability for mapping intracellular H2S in living cells of QcyCHO probe were also unequivocally confirmed, which imply its potential for shedding light on the biology of H2S and therapeutic development in H2S-associated diseases by identifying the specific physiological stimuli inducing H2S production and determining the levels of H2S at the location and time of stimulation.

Abstract
A fluorescent probe for the monitoring of H2S levels in living cells and organisms is highly desirable. In this regard, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes have emerged as a promising tool. NIR-I and NIR-II probes have many significant advantages; for instance, NIR light penetrates deeper into tissue than light at visible wavelengths, and it causes less photodamage during biosample analysis and less autofluorescence, enabling higher signal-to-background ratios. Therefore, it is expected that fluorescent probes having emission in the NIR region are more suitable for in vivo imaging. Consequently, a considerable increase in reports of new H2S-responsive NIR fluorescent probes appeared in the literature. This review highlights the advances made in developing new NIR fluorescent probes aimed at the sensitive and selective detection of H2S in biological samples. Their applications in real-time monitoring of H2S in cells and in vivo for bioimaging of living cells/animals are emphasized. The selection of suitable dyes for designing NIR fluorescent probes, along with the principles and mechanisms involved for the sensing of H2S in the NIR region, are described. The discussions are focused on small-molecule and nanomaterials-based NIR probes.

Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is considered gradually as a serious public health issue, and hepatotoxicity has been regarded as the main clinical problem caused by it. We suspected that both the intracellular viscosity and peroxynitrite (ONOO-) levels in drug-induced hepatotoxicity tissue are higher than those in a healthy liver. For this reason, we have presented a fluorescent probe VO for multichannel imaging viscosity and ONOO- simultaneously. Experimental results showed that VO has satisfactory detection performance for both viscosity and ONOO-, and based on the advantages of its lower cytotoxicity and pH-stabilities, VO was successfully employed to image viscosity and ONOO- in living cells and animals. More importantly, we use the probe to successfully showcase drug-induced hepatotoxicity by imaging viscosity and ONOO- induced by acetaminophen (APAP). All the results indicate that VO has great potential for the detection of viscosity and ONOO- and to assay drug-induced hepatotoxicity. Overall, this work offers a new detection tool/method for a deeper understanding of drug-induced organism injury.

Abstract
The topics of human health and disease are always the focus of much attention. Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S), as a double-edged sword, plays an important role in biological systems. Studies have revealed that endogenous H2 S is important to maintain normal physiological functions. Conversely, abnormal levels of H2 S may contribute to various diseases. Due to the importance of H2 S in physiology and pathology, research into the effects of H2 S has been active in recent years. Fluorescent probes with red/near-infrared (NIR) emissions (620-900 nm) are more suitable for imaging applications in vivo, because of their negligible photodamage, deep tissue penetration, and maximum lack of interference from background autofluorescence. H2 S, an 'evil and positive' molecule, is not only toxic, but also produces significant effects; a 'greedy' molecule, is not only a strong nucleophile under physiological conditions, but also undergoes a continuous double nucleophilic reaction. Therefore, in this tutorial review, we will highlight recent advances made since 2015 in the development and application of red/NIR fluorescent probes based on nucleophilic reactions of H2 S.

Abstract
Reactive sulfur species, including hydrogen sulfide, hydropersulfide, and polysulfide, have many roles in biological systems. For example, hydrogen sulfide is involved in the relaxation of vascular smooth muscles and mediation of neurotransmission, while sulfane sulfur, which exists in cysteine persulfide/polysulfide, and glutathione persulfide/polysulfide, is involved in physiological antioxidation and cytoprotection mechanisms. Fluorescence imaging is well suited for real-time monitoring of reactive sulfur species in living cells, and many fluorescent probes for reactive sulfur species have been reported. In such probes, the choice of detection chemistry is extremely important, not only to achieve effective fluorescence switching and high selectivity, but also because the reactions may be applicable to develop other chemical tools, such as reactive sulfur species donors/scavengers. Here, we present an overview of both widely used and recently developed fluorescent probes for reactive sulfur species, focusing especially on the chemical reactions employed in them for fluorescence switching. We also briefly introduce some applications of fluorescent probes for hydrogen sulfide and sulfane sulfur.
