Abstract
Fluorescent probes capable of in vivo lipids labeling are highly desirable for studying lipid-accumulation-related metabolic diseases, such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, type-2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis. However, most of the current lipid-specific fluorophores cannot be used for in vivo labeling due to their strong hydrophobicity. Herein, organic dots from bright luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIEgen) are developed for in vivo labeling and three-photon fluorescence imaging of lipid-rich tissues, such as fatty liver, atherosclerotic plaques in brain vasculatures, and carotid arteries. The organic dots show excellent stability in an aqueous medium with high targeting specificity to lipids and strong three-photon fluorescence in the far-red/near-infrared (NIR) region under NIR-II laser excitation, which enables efficient in vivo labeling and imaging of lipids in deep tissues. The study will inspire the development of lipid-targeting fluorophores for in vivo applications.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) nanomaterials with distinct matrix coordination-induced emission (MCIE) and quenching (MCIQ) effects were designed. The MOF structure can effectively restrict the intramolecular rotation of the organic linkers and enable the excited nanoparticles to exhibit the MCIE effect. However, if the ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) process occurs in the MOF structure, the fluorescence will be quenched and the excitation energy released in the form of non-radiative energy. When an electron donor is added to block the LMCT process, as expected, the fluorescence of the MOF nanomaterials is recovered. Therefore, the intramolecular LMCT process acts as a fluorescent switch in MOF nanomaterials that can effectively quench or enable their fluorescence. Additionally, the LMCT process is not affected by the morphology of the coordination compounds, even when the MOF nanomaterials are ground into amorphous structures. These results confirm that the fluorescence of MOF nanomaterials can be regulated by the LMCT process. This study has significance for guiding the design and synthesis of MOF nanomaterials with photoluminescence properties.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a non-invasive therapeutic modality, has received increasing attention owing to its high selectivity and limited side effects. Although significant clinical research progress has been made in PDT, the breadth and depth of its clinical application have not been fully realized due to the limitations such as inadequate light penetration depth, non-targeting photosensitizers (PSs), and tumor hypoxia. Consequently, numerous investigations put their emphasis on innovative strategies to overcome the aforementioned limitations and enhance the therapeutic effect of PDT. Herein, up-to-date advances in these innovative methods for PDT are summarized by introducing the design of PS systems, their working mechanisms and application examples. In addition, current challenges of these innovative strategies for clinical application, and future perspectives on further improvement of PDT are also discussed.

Abstract
Luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIEgens) have been widely applied in the field of photodynamic therapy. Among them, aggregation-induced emission photosensitizers (AIE-PSs) are demonstrated with high capability in fluorescence and photoacoustic bimodal imaging, as well as in fluorescence imaging-guided photodynamic therapy. They not only improve diagnosis accuracy but also provide an efficient theranostic platform to accelerate preclinical translation as well. In this short review, we divide AIE-PSs into three categories. Through the analysis of such classification and construction methods, it will be helpful for scientists to further develop various types of AIE-PSs with superior performance.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission nanoparticles (AIE NPs) are widely used in the biomedical field. However, understanding the biological process of AIE NPs via fluorescence imaging is challenging because of the strong background and poor penetration depth. Herein, we present a novel dual-modality imaging strategy that combines fluorescence imaging and label-free laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (LDI MSI) to map and quantify the biodistribution of AIE NPs (TPAFN-F127 NPs) by monitoring the intrinsic photoluminescence and mass spectrometry signal of the AIE molecule. We discovered that TPAFN-F127 NPs were predominantly distributed in the liver and spleen, and most gradually excreted from the body after 5 days. The accumulation and retention of TPAFN-F127 NPs in tumor sites were also confirmed in a tumor-bearing mouse model. As a proof of concept, the suborgan distribution of TPAFN-F127 NPs in the spleen was visualized by LDI MSI, and the results revealed that TPAFN-F127 NPs were mainly distributed in the red pulp of the spleen with extremely high concentrations within the marginal zone. The in vivo toxicity test demonstrated that TPAFN-F127 NPs are nontoxic for a long-term exposure. This dual-modality imaging strategy provides some insights into the fine distribution of AIE NPs and might also be extended to other polymeric NPs to evaluate their distribution and drug release behaviors in vivo.

Abstract
Plasma membrane (PM), a fundamental building component of a cell, is responsible for a variety of cell functions and biological processes. However, it is still challenging to acquire its morphology and morphological variation information via an effective approach. Herein, we report a PM imaging study regarding an aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgen) called tetraphenylethylene-naphthalimide+ (TPE-NIM+), which is derived from our previously reported tetraphenylethylene-naphthalimide (TPE-NIM). The designed AIEgen (TPE-NIM+) shows significant characteristics of ultrafast staining, high photostability, wash-free property, and long retention time at the PM, which can structurally be correlated with its positively charged quaternary amine and hydrophobic moiety. TPE-NIM+ is further applied for staining of different cell lines, proving its universal PM imaging capability. Most importantly, we demonstrate that TPE-NIM+ can clearly delineate the contours of densely packed living cells with high cytocompatibility. Therefore, TPE-NIM+ as a PM imaging reagent superior to currently available commercial PM dyes shall find a number of applications in the biological/biomedical fields and even beyond.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a noninvasive therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment, which always suffers from the low reactive oxygen species (ROS) yield of traditional organic dyes. Herein, we present lipid-encapsulated aggregation-induced emission nanoparticles (AIE NPs) that have a high quantum yield (23%) and a maximum two-photon absorption (TPA) cross-section of 560 GM irradiated by near-infrared light (800 nm). The AIE NPs can serve as imaging agents for spatiotemporal imaging of tumor tissues with a penetration depth up to 505 μm on mice melanoma model. Importantly, the AIE NPs can simultaneously generate singlet oxygen (1O2) and highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) upon irradiation with 800 nm irradiation for photodynamic tumor ablation. In addition, the AIE NPs can be effectively cleared from the mouse body after the imaging and therapy. This study provides a strategy to develop theranostic agents for cancer image-guided PDT with high brightness, superior photostability, and high biosafety.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging has been widely used as a powerful tool for in situ and real-time visualization of important analytes and biological events in live samples with remarkably high selectivity, sensitivity, and spatial resolution. Compared with one-photon fluorescence imaging, two-photon fluorescence imaging exhibits predominant advantages of minimal photodamage to samples, deep tissue penetration, and outstanding resolution. Recently, the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials have become a preferred choice in two-photon fluorescence biological imaging because of its unique bright fluorescence in solid and aggregate states and strong resistance to photobleaching. In this review, we will exclusively summarize the applications of AIE-active materials in two-photon fluorescence imaging with some representative examples from four aspects: fluorescence detection, in vitro cell imaging, ex vivo tissue imaging, and in vivo vascular imaging. In addition, the current challenges and future development directions of AIE-active materials for two-photon bioimaging are briefly discussed.

Abstract
As a common feature in a majority of malignant tumors, hypoxia has become the Achilles' heel of photodynamic therapy (PDT). The development of type-I photosensitizers that show hypoxia-tolerant PDT efficiency provides a straightforward way to address this issue. However, type-I PDT materials have rarely been discovered. Herein, a π-conjugated molecule with A-D-A configuration, COi6-4Cl, is reported. The H2 O-dispersible nanoparticle of COi6-4Cl can be activated by an 880 nm laser, and displays hypoxia-tolerant type I/II combined PDT capability, and more notably, a high NIR-II fluorescence with a quantum yield over 5%. Moreover, COi6-4Cl shows a negligible photothermal conversion effect. The non-radiative decay of COi6-4Cl is suppressed in the dispersed and aggregated state due to the restricted molecular vibrations and distinct intermolecular steric hindrance induced by its four bulky side chains. These features make COi6-4Cl a distinguished single-NIR-wavelength-activated phototheranostic material, which performs well in NIR-II fluorescence-guided PDT treatment and shows an enhanced in vivo anti-tumor efficiency over the clinically approved Chlorin e6, by the equal stresses on hypoxia-tolerant anti-tumor therapy and deep-penetration imaging. Therefore, the great potential of COi6-4Cl in precise PDT cancer therapy against hypoxia challenges is demonstrated.

Abstract
Organic light-emitting materials with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) character have experienced a rapid development in imaging, visualization and sensing. In this paper, by installing rotors to an aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) compound, we constructed an AIE luminogen (AIEgens) system (A2-A4, B1-B3) with wide emission tunability, which covers almost all regions of visible light (400-780 nm). The calculated energy gap of the compounds is consistent with the value of the absorption transition. In the biological experiments, B3 showed excellent lipid droplet (LD) targeting ability in PC12 cells, and higher photostability compared with the commercial LDs bioprobe. Moreover, as a hydrophobic compound, B3 can distinguish blood from a hyperlipidemia patient and normal people. Thus, this study provides a strategy to construct red/NIR fluorescent materials with AIE character, and further apply it to identify the blood of people with hyperlipidemia.

Abstract
Apart from numerous applications, for example in azo dye precursors, explosives, and industrial processes, the nitro group (-NO2 ) appears on countless molecules in photochemical research owing to its unique characteristics such as a strong electron-withdrawing ability and facile conversion to the reduced substituent. Although it is well known as a fluorescence quencher, fluorescent chromophores that contain the nitro group have also emerged, with 3-nitrophenothiazine being recently reported to have 100 % emission quantum yield in nonpolar solvents. The diverse characters of nitro-containing chromophores motivated us to systematically review those chromophores with nitro substituents, their associated photophysical properties, and applications. In this Review, we succinctly elaborate the advance of the fluorescent nitro chromophores in fields of intramolecular charge transfer, fluorescent probes and nonlinear properties. Special attention is paid to the rationalization of the associated emission spectroscopy, so that the readers can gain insights into the structure-photophysics relationship and hence gain insights for the strategic design of nitro chromophores.

Abstract
The importance of mitochondria in tumorigenesis makes these organelles an ideal target for cancer therapy. In recent years, luminogens with the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect have been developed for mitochondrial targeting and cancer treatment. The induction of mitochondrial dysfunction can be an effective pathway of chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and combination therapy against cancer. This review focuses on recent progress in the field of AIE luminogens (AIEgens) for cancer theranostics based on mitochondrial targeting and dysfunction. AIEgens for cancer treatment, including chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and combination therapy, are summarized herein. Molecular design efforts toward mitochondrial targeting and mitochondria-damaging mechanisms are also discussed. Finally, we discuss the challenges and future directions of development for AIEgens in mitochondria-targeted cancer treatment.

Abstract
We discovered a unique fluorescent enhancement of dye encapsulated polymeric nanoparticles, which strongly depended on the polymeric matrix. Interestingly, the polymer nanoparticles containing a NIR emissive dye exhibited remarkable enhancement of emission encapsulated by the polymer amphiphilic polymer containing polystyrene (PS) moiety, whereas the nanoparticles showed weak fluorescence when using other polymer encapsulation. The highest fluorescent quantum yield of nanoparticles can reach 27% by using PS-PEG encapsulation, where the strong NIR fluorescence can be observed. These ultra-bright fluorescence nanoparticles also possess a strong three-photon fluorescence and show a good candidate for in vivo vascular three-photon fluorescence imaging of mouse brain and ear under 1550 nm fs laser excitation. A fine three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction with an imaging depth of 635 and 180 μm was achieved, respectively. We further demonstrate that these nanoparticles can effectively target the sentinel lymph node (SLN) of mice.

Abstract
Bacterial infectious diseases and bacterial-infected environments have been threatening the health of human beings all over the world. In view of the increased bacteria resistance caused by overuse or improper use of antibiotics, antibacterial biomaterials are developed as the substitutes for antibiotics in some cases. Among them, antibacterial hydrogels are attracting more and more attention due to easy preparation process and diversity of structures by changing their chemical cross-linkers via covalent bonds or noncovalent physical interactions, which can endow them with various specific functions such as high toughness and stretchability, injectability, self-healing, tissue adhesiveness and rapid hemostasis, easy loading and controlled drug release, superior biocompatibility and antioxidation as well as good conductivity. In this review, the recent progress of antibacterial hydrogel including the fabrication methodologies, interior structures, performances, antibacterial mechanisms, and applications of various antibacterial hydrogels is summarized. According to the bacteria-killing modes of hydrogels, several representative hydrogels such as silver nanoparticles-based hydrogel, photoresponsive hydrogel including photothermal and photocatalytic, self-bacteria-killing hydrogel such as inherent antibacterial peptides and cationic polymers, and antibiotics-loading hydrogel are focused on. Furthermore, current challenges of antibacterial hydrogels are discussed and future perspectives in this field are also proposed.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) causes a global burden with its high rates of infection and death, especially the irrepressible threats of latent infection and drug resistance. Therefore, it is important to construct efficient theranostics for the prevention and control of TB. Herein, we created a targeted theranostic strategy for TB with a rifampicin-loaded aggregation-induced emission (AIE) carrier and performed testing in laboratory animals. The AIE carrier was constructed to localize in the granulomas and emit fluorescent signals at the early stage of infection, enabling the early diagnosis of TB. Subsequently, reactive oxygen species (ROS) were generated to eradicate infection, and the loaded rifampicin (RIF) was released for the synergistic treatment of persistent bacteria. Furthermore, targeted TB therapy was performed with the light-controlled release of ROS and accurate delivery of RIF, which realizes an anti-infection effect, providing an especially important treatment for drug-resistant TB. Thus, targeted theranostics for TB in laboratory animals possess the potential to become granulomas-tracking and anti-infection strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of TB.

Abstract
Tumor hypoxia compromises the effects of photodynamic therapy that consumes oxygen in the therapeutic process. Herein, a platinum (Pt)-carbon-integrated nanozyme with favorable catalase-like activity and photosensitizing properties was successfully constructed by immobilizing an ultrasmall Pt nanozyme into a MOF-derived carbon nanozyme through an in situ reduction strategy. The integration of a Pt nanozyme significantly improves the catalase activity of a carbon nanozyme that can effectively catalyze the decomposition of endogenous hydrogen peroxide to produce oxygen to improve the effects of photodynamic therapy. In addition, the integration of a Pt nanozyme also enhances the intrinsic photothermal performance of a carbon nanozyme. Combining the improved catalase-like activity with the enhanced photothermal properties together, the Pt-carbon nanozyme exhibits remarkable tumor inhibition ability in vivo. Thus, utilizing the enzymatic activity and photothermal/photosensitizing properties of nanozymes has great potential to overcome the limitations of traditional therapeutic strategies, and could inspire new directions for nanozyme-based biomedical applications.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) describes a photophysical phenomenon in which molecular aggregates exhibit stronger emission than the single molecules. Over the course of the last 20 years, AIE research has made great strides in material development, mechanistic study and high-tech applications. The achievements of AIE research demonstrate that molecular aggregates show many properties and functions that are absent in molecular species. In this review, we summarize the advances in the field of AIE and its related areas. We specifically focus on the new properties of materials attained by molecular aggregates beyond the microscopic molecular level. We hope this review will inspire more research into molecular ensembles at and beyond the meso level and lead to the significant progress in material and biological science.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is one of the top ten leading causes of death globally and the worst killer in low-income countries. The overuse of antibiotics leads to ever-increasing antibiotic resistance, posing a severe threat to human health. Recent advances in nanotechnology provide new opportunities to address the challenges in bacterial infection by killing germs without using antibiotics. Antibiotic-free antibacterial strategies enabled by advanced nanomaterials are presented. Nanomaterials are classified on the basis of their mode of action: nanomaterials with intrinsic or light-mediated bactericidal properties and others that serve as vehicles for the delivery of natural antibacterial compounds. Specific attention is given to antibacterial mechanisms and the structure-performance relationship. Practical antibacterial applications employing these antibiotic-free strategies are also introduced. Current challenges in this field and future perspectives are presented to stimulate new technologies and their translation to fight against bacterial infection.

To broaden the application of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens (AIEgens), the design of novel small-molecular dyes that exhibit high fluorescence quantum yield (Φfl ) in the solid state is required. Considering that the mechanism of AIE can be rationalized based on steric avoidance of non-radiative decay pathways, a series of bridged stilbenes was designed, and their non-radiative decay pathways were investigated theoretically. Bridged stilbenes with short alkyl chains exhibited a strong fluorescence emission in solution and in the solid state, while bridged stilbenes with long alkyl chains exhibited AIE. Based on this theoretical prediction, we developed the bridged stilbenes BPST[7] and DPB[7], which demonstrate excellent AIE behavior.

Abstract
In vivo fluorescent monitoring of physiological processes with high-fidelity is essential in disease diagnosis and biological research, but faces extreme challenges due to aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) and short-wavelength fluorescence. The development of high-performance and long-wavelength aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorophores is in high demand for precise optical bioimaging. The chromophore quinoline-malononitrile (QM) has recently emerged as a new class of AIE building block that possesses several notable features, such as red to near-infrared (NIR) emission, high brightness, marked photostability, and good biocompatibility. In this minireview, we summarize some recent advances of our established AIE building block of QM, focusing on the AIE mechanism, regulation of emission wavelength and morphology, the facile scale-up and fast preparation for AIE nanoparticles, as well as potential biomedical imaging applications.

Abstract
Red material is widely used in many fields because it has a lot of high performances such as strong penetrability, little trauma to cell and tissue, easy to prepare, and low background interference. However, a lot of organic materials were troubled with the aggregation caused emission quenching (ACQ) effect, which really limits their practical applications. In contrast, aggregation induced emission (AIE) and aggregation-induced enhanced emission (AIEE) effects provide an efficient method to break the obstacle of ACQ effect. Herein, a red light molecule was developed by integrating cyano and alkyl sulfide moieties. Its photoluminescence mechanism was further revealed by fluorescence spectrum, density functional theory (DFT) and X-ray single crystal diffraction, respectively. It is found that this compound has good planar construction and has no rotatory unit, it showed typical AIEE performance because of intramolecular D-π-A structure and the formation of J-aggregation. This molecular design principle may be able to offer an effective strategy to exploit red AIE/AIEE organic materials. Meanwhile, this fluorogen showed excellent response capability to ClO- including high selectivity and sensitivity, and cell imaging performance.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOD)-based synergistic cancer therapy has aroused great research interest in the context of cancer treatment due to the inherent biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, this emerging therapeutic system still lacks a strategy to predict and regulate the in vivo biocatalytic behavior of GOD in real time to minimize the side effects on normal tissues. Herein, we developed a tumor-specific cascade nanotheranostic system (BNG) that combines GOD-catalyzed oxidative stress and dual-channel fluorescent sensing, significantly improving the synergistic therapeutic efficacy with real-time feedback information. The nanotheranostic system remains completely silent in the blood circulatory system and selectively releases GOD enzymes in the tumor site, with enhanced near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence at 825 nm. Subsequently, GOD catalyzes H2O2 production, triggering cascade reactions with NIR fluorescence at 650 nm as an optical output, along with GSH depletion, enabling synergistic cancer treatment. The designed nanotheranostic system, integrated with tumor-activated cascade reactions and triggering a dual-channel output at each step, represents an insightful paradigm for precise cooperative cancer therapy. Herein, we described the strategy of cascade nanotheranostics for in real-time tracking of GOD release and thus provide the feedback information of biocatalysis cascade process with significantly enhanced in vivo therapeutic efficiency. ![]()

Abstract
We developed an easily accessible boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-based fluorogenic probe, which we named LD-TB. This probe emits bright fluorescence in oil; when compared with aqueous solution, a significant enhancement of fluorescence brightness is observed. Cellular experiments confirmed that the probe stains the lipid droplets (LDs) specifically in both live and fixed cells, providing background-free images. Compared with Nile Red dye, a commonly used LD marker, LD-TB showed superior photostability. The sharp absorption and emission bands enable its multicolor imaging with blue and green probes. Importantly, the probe has proved to have low toxicity and is compatible with cell fixation. Our research provides a promising new fluorogenic probe for specific imaging of LDs.

Abstract
Fluorescent organic dots (O-dots) recently have emerged as a new class of promising contrast reagents for two-photon fluorescence (TPF) imaging. However, most of these developed two-photon absorption (TPA) O-dots have no tumor-targeting group, which hampers their wide application for targeted tumor imaging. Herein, we fabricated Sgc8c aptamer-mediated TPA O-dots as a proof-of-concept of the sensing platform for targeted imaging in live cells or deep tissues. The O-dots composed of trans-4-[p-(N, N-diethylamino)styryl]-4'-(dimethyl amino) stilbene (DEAS) emerged as TPA organic emissive cores and encapsulation by using poly (methyl methacrylate-co-methacrylic acid) (PMMA-co-MAA) as polymeric encapsulating matrix to form DEAS/PMMA-co-MAA O-dots via a co-precipitation strategy. The obtained O-dots enabled an extremely high TPA absorption cross-section, bright two-photon fluorescence (excitation at 720 nm; emission at 412 nm and 434 nm), excellent cell-permeability and high penetration depth. Sgc8c aptamer, as a protein tyrosine kinase-7 (PTK7) receptor-targetable ligand, was further anchored on the surface of O-dots to obtain DEAS/PMMA-co-MAA@Sgc8c nanoprobes by 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)-mediated coupling reaction. Guided by Sgc8c aptamer, DEAS/PMMA-co-MAA@Sgc8c nanoprobes could be rapidly internalized into target acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells (CEM) cells with high specificity and great efficiency. It was also performed that two-photon images of TPA nanoprobes exhibited high two-photon brightness not only in target CEM cells, but also in mouse liver tissue slices even a depth of up to 210 μm. In our perception, it is highly promising that this nanoprobe provides a valuable tool for in vivo targeted imaging.

Abstract
Developing multifunctional photosensitizers (PSs) is needed to effectively simplify cancer treatment, but it remains a big challenge. Here, two red-emitting AIE-active, donor-acceptor (D-A) PSs with small ΔE ST and their AIE nanoparticles, are rationally designed and synthesized. The PS1 NPs exhibit bright red-emission with high quantum yield, appropriate 1O2 generation ability and good biocompatibility. More importantly, PS1 NPs can strongly light up the cytoplasm by gently shaking the cells for only 5 s at room temperature, indicating ultrafast staining and mild incubation conditions. In vitro and in vivo cell tracing demonstrate that PS1 NPs can track cells over 14 days, and effectively inhibit tumor growth upon irradiation. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first example of a PS that integrates image-guided PDT, ultrafast staining and long-term tracing functions, demonstrating the "all-in-one" concept which offers great advantages for potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Design and synthesis of water-soluble near-infrared (NIR) emissive fluorescent molecules with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, perfect signal-to-noise ratio for imaging of organelle, and photodynamic therapy (PDT) functions has received enormous attention. However, the dual-functional NIR AIEgens of high-fidelity tracking lysosome and ablation cancer cells was rarely reported. Herein, a series of AIE luminogens (AIEgens) with a typical AIE effect, good biocompatibility, superior photostability, high brightness, and excellent reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation ability were developed, which had different electronic push-pull strength and conjugate system size in the molecular structure. These AIEgens could specifically "light up" and dynamically long-term track the lysosomes in living cells and zebrafish with ultrahigh colocalization imaging Pearson's correlation coefficients (Rr: 0.9687) and overlap coefficient (R: 0.9967). Additionally, the MPAT of NIR luminescence as a photosensitizer was used for photodynamic ablation of cancer cells, owing to prompt generation of the ROS under green light irradiation (495-530 nm, 10 mW cm-2). Hence, this research not only expands the application range of NIR AIEgens but also provides useful insights into design of split-new method for the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) takes advantage of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to trigger the apoptosis for cancer therapy. Given that cell apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death involved with multiple suborganelles and cancer cells are more sensitive to ROS than normal cells, early confirmation of the apoptosis induced by ROS would effectively avoid overtreatment. Herein, we highlight an aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-based theranostic agent (TPA3) to in situ dynamically track mitophagy prior to late apoptosis. TPA3 showed high specificity to autophagy vacuoles (AVs), of which appearance is the signature event of mitophagy during early apoptosis and delivered photocytotoxicity to cancer cells and skin cancer tumors in nude mice under irradiation of white light. Furthermore, in situ monitoring of the dynamical mitophagy process involved with mitochondria, AVs, and lysosomes was performed for the first time under confocal microscopy, providing a real-time self-monitoring system for assessing the curative effect prior to late apoptosis. This fluorescence imaging guided PDT witness great advances for applying in the clinical application.
