Abstract
The sensitivity of fluorescence imaging is limited by the high optical scattering of tissue. One approach to improve sensitivity to small signals is to use a contrast agent with a signal that can be externally modulated. In this work, we present a new phase-changing perfluorocarbon nanodroplet contrast agent loaded with DiR dye. The nanodroplets undergo a liquid-to-gas phase transition when exposed to an externally applied laser pulse. This results in the unquenching of the encapsulated dye, thus increasing the fluorescent signal, a phenomenon that can be characterized by an ON/OFF ratio between the fluorescence of activated and nonactivated nanodroplets, respectively. We investigate and optimize the quenching/unquenching of DiR upon nanodroplets’ vaporization in suspension, tissue-mimicking phantoms and a subcutaneous injection mouse model. We also demonstrate that the vaporized nanodroplets produce ultrasound contrast, enabling multimodal imaging. This work shows that these nanodroplets could be applied to imaging applications where high sensitivity is required.

Abstract
Drug-based oncotherapy is seriously challenged by insufficient drug accumulation at tumor sites, mainly resulting from low drug loading efficiency and poor tumor-targeting ability of drug carriers. We herein proposed a "one-stone, two-bird" strategy to circumvent both obstacles, utilizing the source cancer cell membrane (CM) as a dual-function carrier to simultaneously achieve sufficient drug loading and homologous tumor targeting. Combining the use of TPGS (d-α-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate) to inhibit the drug efflux process of drug-resistant tumor, we constructed core-shell-structured nanocomposites CMGNPs consisting of ICG (indocyanine green)/DOX (doxorubicin)-loaded, TPGS/OA (oleic acid)-stabilized upconversion nanoparticles as the core and ICG-loaded MCF7/ADR CMs as the shell, for combined chemo/phototherapy of MCF7/ADR tumor. The employment of phospholipid bilayers of CMs as natural pockets for extra drug loading while preserving the homologous targeting ability greatly enhanced drug concentration at tumor sites, endowing CMGNPs with excellent therapeutic efficacy. Our effort provides a versatile approach for facilitating drug delivery in diverse therapeutic systems.

Abstract
Photoacoustic imaging and photothermal therapy that employ organic dye in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II) became an attractive theranostical strategy for eliminating solid tumors, in which IR1048 was previously reported to be a good candidate. However, the further biomedical application of IR1048 was blocked by its poor water-solubility and lack of tumor-targeting. To solve this problem, liposome camouflaged with 4T1 cell membrane fragments was employed to encapsulate IR1048 (thereafter called MLI), and its application for photoacoustic and thermo-imaging and photothermal therapy were explored in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that MLI exhibited spherical morphology around 92.55 ± 5.41 nm coated by monolayer adventitial fragments, and uniformly dispersed in PBS with high loading efficiency and encapsulation efficiency to IR1048. In addition, both free IR1048 and MLI presented strong absorption in NIR-II, and upon 1064 nm laser irradiation the MLI showed awesome photothermal performance that could rapidly elevate the temperature to 50.9 °C in 6 min. Simultaneously, phantom assay proved that MLI could dramatically enhance the photoacoustic amplitudes by a linear concentration-dependent way. Moreover, either flow cytometry or confocal analysis evidenced that MLI was the most uptaked by 4T1 cells among other melanoma B16 cells and Hek293 cells and coexist of IR1048 and 1064 nm laser irradiation were indispensable for the photothermal cytotoxicity of MLI that specifically killed 96.16% of 4T1 cells far outweigh the B16 cells while hardly toxic to the Hek293 normal cells. Furthermore, PA imaging figured out that 4 h post tail-vein injection of MLI was the best time to give 1064 nm irradiation to conduct the photothermal therapy when the average tumor-accumulation of MLI achieved the highest. In the NIR-II photothermal therapy, MLI could significantly inhibit the tumor growth and almost ablated the tumors with slight body weight variation and the highest average life span over the therapy episode and caused no damage to the normal organs. Hence, MLI could pave the way for further biomedical applications of IR-1048 by homologous tumor-targeting and dual-modal imaging directed NIR-II accurate photothermal therapy with high efficacy and fine biosafety.

Abstract
Axonal transport plays a significant role in the establishment of neuronal polarity, axon growth, and synapse formation during neuronal development. The axon of a naturally growing neuron is a highly complex and multifurcated structure with a large number of bends and branches. Nowadays, the study of dynamic axonal transport in morphologically complex neurons is greatly limited by the technological barrier. Here, a sparse gene transfection strategy was developed to locate fluorescent mCherry in the lysosome of primary neurons, thus enabling us to track the lysosome-based axonal transport with a single-particle resolution. Thereby, several axonal transport models were observed, including the forward or backward transport model, stop-and-go model, repeated back-and-forth transport model, and cross-branch transport model. Then, the accurate single-particle velocity quantification by TrackMate revealed a highly heterogeneous and discontinuous transportation process of lysosome-based axonal transport in freely orientated axons. And, multiple physical factors, such as the axonal structure and the size of particles, were disclosed to affect the velocity of particle transporting in freely orientated axons. The combined single-particle fluorescence tracking and TrackMate assay can be served as a facile tool for evaluating axonal transport in neuronal development and axonal transport-related diseases.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR, 700-1700 nm) luminescent imaging is an emerging bioimaging technology with low photon scattering, minimal autofluorescence, deep tissue penetration, and high spatiotemporal resolution that has shown fascinating promise for NIR imaging-guided theranostics. In recent progress, NIR luminescent metal complexes have attracted substantially increased research attention owing to their intrinsic merits, including small size, anti-photobleaching, long lifetime, and metal-centered NIR emission. In the past decade, scientists have contributed to the advancement of NIR metal complexes involving efforts to improve photophysical properties, biocompatibility, specificity, pharmacokinetics, in vivo visualization, and attempts to exploit new ligand platforms. Herein, we summarize recent progress and provide future perspectives for NIR metal complexes, including d-block transition metals and f-block lanthanides (Ln) as NIR optical molecular probes for bioassays.

Abstract
Bacteria-mediated cancer therapy is a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer that has unique properties, including broad tumor-targeting ability, various administration routes, the flexibility of delivery, and facilitating the host's immune responses. The molecular imaging of bacteria-mediated cancer therapy allows the therapeutically injected bacteria to be visualized and confirms the accurate delivery of the therapeutic bacteria to the target lesion. Several hurdles make bacteria-specific imaging challenging, including the need to discriminate therapeutic bacterial infection from inflammation or other pathologic lesions. To realize the full potential of bacteria-specific imaging, it is necessary to develop bacteria-specific targets that can be associated with an imaging assay. This review describes the current status of bacterial imaging techniques together with the advantages and disadvantages of several imaging modalities. Also, we describe potential targets for bacterial-specific imaging and related applications.

Abstract
Polyoxometalates (POMs) as metal-oxide anions have exceptional properties like high negative charges, remarkable redox abilities, unique ligand properties and availability of organic grafting. Moreover, the amenability of POMs to modification with different materials makes them suitable as precursors to further obtain new composites. Due to their unique attributes, POMs and their composites have been utilized as adsorbents, electrodes and catalysts in extraction, and electrochemical and optical detection methods, respectively. A survey of the recent progress and developments of POM-based materials in these methods is therefore desirable, and should be of great interest. In this review article, POM-based materials, their properties as well as their identification methods, and analytical applications as adsorbents, electrodes and catalysts, and corresponding mechanisms of action, where relevant, are reviewed. Some current issues of the utilization of these materials and their future prospects in analytical chemistry are discussed.

Abstract
Improving the effectiveness of cancer therapy will require tools that enable more specific cancer targeting and improved tumor visualization. Theranostics have the potential for improving cancer care because of their ability to serve as both diagnostics and therapeutics; however, their diagnostic potential is often limited by tissue-associated light absorption and scattering. Herein, we develop CuInSe2@ZnS:Mn quantum dots (QDs) with intrinsic multifunctionality that both enable the accurate localization of small metastases and act as potent tumor ablation agents. By leveraging the growth kinetics of a ZnS shell on a biocompatible CuInSe2 core, Mn doping, and folic acid functionalization, we produce biocompatible QDs with high near-infrared (NIR)-II fluorescence efficiency up to 31.2%, high contrast on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and preferential distribution in 4T1 breast cancer tumors. MRI-enabled contrast of these nanoprobes is sufficient to timely identify small metastases in the lungs, which is critically important for preventing cancer spreading and recurrence. Further, exciting tumor-resident QDs with NIR light produces both fluorescence for tumor visualization through radiative recombination pathways as well as heat and radicals through nonradiative recombination pathways that kill cancer cells and initiate an anticancer immune response, which eliminates tumor and prevents tumor regrowth in 80% of mice.

Abstract
Acute alcoholic liver injury (AALI) is hard to diagnose on account of no obvious clinical symptoms, and thereby it easily develops into serious liver diseases and threatens people's health. However, traditional methods for detecting AALI are far from satisfactory due to the low sensitivity, invasiveness and non-visualization, and the development of new techniques is in urgent demand. Near-infrared (NIR)-II fluorescence imaging has been widely studied in biochemistry and biomedicine. As the blood flow velocity of the liver is closely related to the progression of AALI, herein, a NIR-II fluorescent nanoprobe, NTPB-NPs, was applied to diagnose AALI by monitoring the fluorescence intensity changes in the liver caused by the variations of the blood flow velocity. More importantly, when medication was applied to alleviate the liver injury of AALI mice, NTPB-NPs could also track the therapeutic effect in situ. In this study, the relationship between hepatic vascular velocity and the progression of AALI was confirmed with NTPB-NPs via NIR-II imaging. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a NIR-II fluorescence imaging technique has been used to diagnose AALI mice and evaluate the therapeutic effect on AALI mice. This study may also provide a potential NIR-II imaging agent for clinical research to improve the management of liver injury related diseases.

Figueira F, Tomé JPC, Paz FAA. Porphyrin NanoMetal-Organic Frameworks as Cancer Theranostic Agents. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27103111. [PMID: 35630585 PMCID: PMC9147750 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27103111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are hybrid multifunctional platforms that have found remarkable applications in cancer treatment and diagnostics. Independently, these materials can be employed in cancer treatment as intelligent drug carriers in chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, and photodynamic therapy; conversely, MOFs can further be used as diagnostic tools in fluorescence imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography imaging, and photoacoustic imaging. One essential property of these materials is their great ability to fine-tune their composition toward a specific application by way of a judicious choice of the starting building materials (metal nodes and organic ligands). Moreover, many advancements were made concerning the preparation of these materials, including the ability to downsize the crystallites yielding nanoporous porphyrin MOFs (NMOFs) which are of great interest for clinical treatment and diagnostic theranostic tools. The usage of porphyrins as ligands allows a high degree of multifunctionality. Historically these molecules are well known for their reactive oxygen species formation and strong fluorescence characteristics, and both have proved helpful in cancer treatment and diagnostic tools. The anticipation that porphyrins in MOFs could prompt the resulting materials to multifunctional theranostic platforms is a reality nowadays with a series of remarkable and ground-breaking reports available in the literature. This is particularly remarkable in the last five years, when the scientific community witnessed rapid development in porphyrin MOFs theranostic agents through the development of imaging technologies and treatment strategies for cancer. This manuscript reviews the most relevant recent results and achievements in this particular area of interest in MOF chemistry and application.

Abstract
Small-molecule-based second near-infrared (NIR-II) activatable fluorescent probes can potentially provide a high target-to-background ratio and deep tissue penetration. However, most of the reported NIR-II activatable small-molecule probes exhibit poor versatility owing to the lack of a general and stable optically tunable group. In this study, we designed NIRII-HDs, a novel dye scaffold optimized for NIR-II probe development. In particular, dye NIRII-HD5 showed the best optical properties such as proper pKa value, excellent stability, and high NIR-II brightness, which can be beneficial for in vivo imaging with high contrast. To demonstrate the applicability of the NIRII-HD5 dye, we designed three target-activatable NIR-II probes for ROS, thiols, and enzymes. Using these novel probes, we not only realized reliable NIR-II imaging of different diseases in mouse models but also evaluated the redox potential of liver tissue during a liver injury in vivo with high fidelity.

Abstract
Materials with long-wavelength second near-infrared (NIR-II) emission are highly desired for in vivo dynamic visualizating of microstructures in deep tissues. Herein, by employing an atom-programming strategy, a series of highly fluorescent semiconducting oligomers (SOMs) with tunable NIR-IIb emissions are developed for bioimaging applications. After self-assembly into nanoparticles (NPs), they show good brightness, high photostability, and satisfactory biocompatibility. The SOM NPs are applied as probes for high-resolution imaging of whole-body and hind-limb blood vessels, biliary tract, and bladder with their emissions over 1500 nm. This work demonstrates an atom-programming strategy for constructing semiconducting small molecules with enhanced NIR-II fluorescence for deep-tissue imaging, affording new insight for advancing molecular design of NIR-II fluorophores.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Full-field optical coherence tomography (FF-OCT) enables en face views of scattering samples at a given depth with subcellular resolution, similar to biopsy without the need of sample slicing or other complex preparation. This noninvasive, high-resolution, three-dimensional (3D) imaging method has the potential to become a powerful tool in biomedical research, clinical applications, and other microscopic detection. AIM Our review provides an overview of the disruptive innovations and key technologies to further improve FF-OCT performance, promoting FF-OCT technology in biomedical and other application scenarios. APPROACH A comprehensive review of state-of-the-art accomplishments in OCT has been performed. Methods to improve performance of FF-OCT systems are reviewed, including advanced phase-shift approaches for imaging speed improvement, methods of denoising, artifact reduction, and aberration correction for imaging quality optimization, innovations for imaging flux expansion (field-of-view enlargement and imaging-depth-limit extension), new implementations for multimodality systems, and deep learning enhanced FF-OCT for information mining, etc. Finally, we summarize the application status and prospects of FF-OCT in the fields of biomedicine, materials science, security, and identification. RESULTS The most worth-expecting FF-OCT innovations include combining the technique of spatial modulation of optical field and computational optical imaging technology to obtain greater penetration depth, as well as exploiting endogenous contrast for functional imaging, e.g., dynamic FF-OCT, which enables noninvasive visualization of tissue dynamic properties or intracellular motility. Different dynamic imaging algorithms are compared using the same OCT data of the colorectal cancer organoid, which helps to understand the disadvantages and advantages of each. In addition, deep learning enhanced FF-OCT provides more valuable characteristic information, which is of great significance for auxiliary diagnosis and organoid detection. CONCLUSIONS FF-OCT has not been completely exploited and has substantial growth potential. By elaborating the key technologies, performance optimization methods, and application status of FF-OCT, we expect to accelerate the development of FF-OCT in both academic and industry fields. This renewed perspective on FF-OCT may also serve as a road map for future development of invasive 3D super-resolution imaging techniques to solve the problems of microscopic visualization detection.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of the near-infrared (NIR)-II emissive conjugated oligoelectrolyte COE-BBT are reported. COE-BBT has a solubility in aqueous media greater than 50 mg mL-1 , low toxicity, and a propensity to intercalate lipid bilayers, wherein it exhibits a higher emission quantum yield relative to aqueous media. Addition of COE-BBT to cells provides two emission channels, at ≈500 and ≈1020 nm, depending on the excitation wavelength, which facilitates in vitro confocal microscopy and in vivo animal imaging. The NIR-II emission of COE-BBT is used to track intracranial and subcutaneous tumor progression in mice. Of relevance is that the total NIR-II intensity increases over time. This phenomenon is attributed to a progressive attenuation of a COE-BBT self-quenching effect within the cells due to the expected dye dilution per cell as the tumor proliferates.

Abstract
Controllable and visible delivery of therapeutic agents is critical for tumor precise therapy. Tumor targeting and deep penetration of therapeutic agents are still challenging issues for controllable delivery. Visible drug delivery with imaging navigation can optimize the treatment window for personalized medicine. Herein, a biomimetic platelet intelligent vehicle with navigation (IRDNP-PLT) was developed to achieve controllable and visible delivery with a navigation system, a driving system, and a loading system. The platelets acted as engines and drug repositories to exert the target driving and delivery functions. The fluorescent photothermal agent IR-820 was introduced in the platform to offer an imaging navigation for the intelligent platelet vehicle in addition to photothermal therapy. The nanodrug-loaded platelets enabled efficient drug loading and controlled release of the therapeutic payload by encapsulating photothermal-/pH-sensitive chemotherapeutic nanoparticles (PDA@Dox NPs). In in vivo experiments on 4T1 tumor-bearing mice models, IRDNP-PLT performed well in tumor targeting and showed excellent therapeutic efficacy and tumor recurrence prevention ability. The intelligent platelet vehicle achieved the functions of tumor targeting and deep penetration, fluorescence imaging guidance, photocontrolled drug release, and chemo-photothermal combination therapy, suggesting the advancement for tumor precise delivery and efficient therapy.

Abstract
Although Ru(II)-based agents are expected to be promising candidates for substituting Pt-drug, their in vivo biomedical applications are still limited by the short excitation/emission wavelengths and unsatisfactory therapeutic efficiency. Herein, we rationally design a Ru(II) metallacycle with excitation at 808 nm and emission over 1000 nm, namely Ru1085, which holds deep optical penetration (up to 6 mm) and enhanced chemo-phototherapy activity. In vitro studies indicate that Ru1085 exhibits prominent cell uptake and desirable anticancer capability against various cancer cell lines, especially for cisplatin-resistant A549 cells. Further studies reveal Ru1085 induces mitochondria-mediated apoptosis along with S and G2/M phase cell cycle arrest. Finally, Ru1085 shows precise NIR-II fluorescence imaging guided and long-term monitored chemo-phototherapy against A549 tumor with minimal side effects. We envision that the design of long-wavelength emissive metallacycle will offer emerging opportunities of metal-based agents for in vivo biomedical applications. Ruthenium (Ru(II)) compounds are of interest as platinum drug replacements but have suffered from suboptimal therapeutic efficiency. Here, the authors design a Ru(II) metallacycle with NIR excitation and emission wavelengths and demonstrate application for deep tumour imaging and chemo-photo therapy.

Abstract
IR820, an analog of FDA-approved indocyanine green, is a promising second near-infrared window (NIR-II) fluorescence probe with better NIR-II fluorescence stability and great clinical transformation potential. Moreover, its fluorescence can be further remarkably enhanced by the interaction with albumin. Therefore, it is significant to flexibly design IR820-albumin complex using endogenous or exogenetic albumin to meet the requirements of different biological applications. Herein, we show the rational synthesis of IR820-albumin complex for NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided surgical treatment of tumors and gastrointestinal obstruction. We compared the NIR-II fluorescence imaging ability of IR820 pre-incubated with albumin or not to visualize tumors and the gastrointestinal tract in vivo and found that the formation of IR820-albumin was essential for the intense NIR-II fluorescence. For imaging-guided tumor treatment, after intravenous injection of free IR820, IR820-albumin complex can be formed in vivo due to the presence of plenty of albumin in the blood. For imaging-guided gastrointestinal obstruction removal, IR820-albumin complex should be synthesized in vitro before oral administration. NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided surgeries were successfully realized in both tumor resection and gastrointestinal obstruction removal. Besides, toxicity assessments in vitro and in vivo confirmed the good biocompatibility of IR820. Our study provides a flexible paradigm for IR820-based NIR-II fluorescence imaging and surgical navigation towards different diseases.

Abstract
Illumination of biological events with near-infrared II sub-channel (NIR-IIb, 1500-1700 nm) enhances the transparency of biological tissues, which is very attractive for deep imaging. Due to the long-wavelength, which reduces optical damage, suppresses autofluorescence, and obviates light scattering, NIR-IIb nanoprobes afford deep tissue penetration with unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution. Hence, NIR-IIb imaging facilitates deep learning and decipherment of biological proceedings in living organisms with astounding high clarity. In comparison to its predecessors in the visible-near-infrared spectrum, imaging in the NIR-IIb has shown great potential for tissue imaging and extrapolating imaging applications for clinical studies. However, the use of organic fluorescent nanoprobes (OFNPs) in the NIR-IIb region is still rare since it is in its early stages. Thus, herein we aim to survey the recent development of different organic fluorescent nanomaterials with NIR-IIb characteristics, their unique photophysical properties, and their utilization in deep imaging in animal models. Further, practical researches on organic fluorescent nanoprobes with NIR-IIb emission and their transition to clinical applications are highlighted.

Abstract
Imaging techniques, including magnetic, optical, acoustic and nuclear imaging, are gaining popularity as a research tool and clinical diagnostics. The advent of imaging agents-incorporated nanosystems (NSs), with sufficient contrast and high resolution, facilitates better monitoring of disease progression, targeted delivery and therapeutic process. Of note, the size of NSs remarkably affects imaging performance, while both large and small NSs enjoy respective features and superiority for imaging aspect, including penetration depth, signal-to-background ratio and spatiotemporal resolution. In this review, after a systematic summary of the basic knowledge of imaging techniques and its relation with size-tunable strategies, we further provide insights into the opportunities and challenges facing size-transformable NSs of the future for bio-imaging application and clinical translation.

Abstract
The surface of nanocrystals plays a dominant role in many of their physical and chemical properties. However, controllability and tunability of nanocrystal surfaces remain unsolved. Herein, we report that the surface chemistry of nanocrystals, such as near-infrared Ag2Se quantum dots (QDs), is size-dependent and composition-tunable. The Ag2Se QDs tend to form a stable metal complex on the surface to minimize the surface energy, and therefore the surface chemistry can be varied with particle size. Meanwhile, changes in surface inorganic composition lead to reorganization of the surface ligands, and the surface chemistry also varies with composition. Therefore, the surface chemistry of Ag2Se QDs, responsible for the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield and photostability, can be tuned by changing their size or composition. Accordingly, we demonstrate that the PL intensity of the Ag2Se QDs can be tuned reversely by adjusting the degree of surface Ag+ enrichment via light irradiation or the addition of AgNO3. This work provides insight into the control of QD surface for desired PL properties.

Abstract
Sensitivity, specificity, mobility, and affordability are important criteria to consider for developing diagnostic instruments in common use. Fluorescence spectroscopy has been demonstrating substantial potential in the clinical diagnosis of diseases and evaluating the underlying causes of pathogenesis. A higher degree of device integration with appropriate sensitivity and reasonable cost would further boost the value of the fluorescence techniques in clinical diagnosis and aid in the reduction of healthcare expenses, which is a key economic concern in emerging markets. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which are inexpensive and smaller are attractive alternatives to conventional excitation sources in fluorescence spectroscopy, are gaining a lot of momentum in the development of affordable, compact analytical instruments of clinical relevance. The commercial availability of a broad range of LED wavelengths (255-4600 nm) has opened up new avenues for targeting a wide range of clinically significant molecules (both endogenous and exogenous), thereby diagnosing a range of clinical illnesses. As a result, we have specifically examined the uses of LED-induced fluorescence (LED-IF) in preclinical and clinical evaluations of pathological conditions, considering the present advancements in the field.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a distinguished hallmark of the tumor microenvironment. Hypoxic signaling affects multiple gene expressions, resulting in tumor invasion and metastasis. Quantification of hypoxic status although challenging, can be useful for monitoring tumor development and aggressiveness. However, hypoxia-independent factors such as nonspecific binding and heterogenous probe delivery considerably influence the probe signal thereby disenabling reliable quantitative imaging in vivo. In this study, we designed a self-calibrated activatable nanoprobe Cy7-1/PG5-Cy5@LWHA that specifically detects nitroreductase activity upregulated in hypoxic tumor cells. Dual fluorescence emission of the nanoprobe enables ratiometric calibration and eliminates the target-independent interference. In orthotopic and metastatic breast cancer mouse models, Cy7-1/PG5-Cy5@LWHA demonstrated remarkable hypoxia sensing capability in vivo. Moreover, ratiometric processing provided quantitative hypoxia assessment at different tumor developmental stages and facilitated tumor burden assessment in the metastatic lymph nodes. Therefore, our study demonstrates that ratiometric imaging of Cy7-1/PG5-Cy5@LWHA can be a prospective noninvasive tool to quantitatively monitor tumor hypoxia, which would be beneficial for investigating the fundamental role of hypoxia in tumor progression and for evaluating response to novel anti-hypoxia therapeutics. Furthermore, successful detection of metastatic lymph nodes with the proposed imaging approach illustrates its potential clinical application in assessing lymph node status during surgery.

Abstract
Surgeons face great challenges in acquiring high-performance imaging because fluorescence probes with desired thermal stability remains rare. Here, hybrid lead sulfide/zinc sulfide quantum dots (PbS/ZnS QDs) nanostructures emitting in the long-wavelength end of the second near-infrared (NIR-IIb) window were synthesized and conjugated with Ribonuclease-A (RNase A). Such formed RNase A@PbS/ZnS QDs exhibited strong NIR IIb fluorescence and thermal stability, as supported by the photoluminescent emission assessment at different temperatures. This will allow the RNase A@PbS/ZnS QDs to provide stable fluorescence signals for long-time intraoperative imaging navigation, despite often happened, undesirable thermal accumulation in vivo. Compared to NIR-IIa fluorescence imaging, NIR-IIb vascular fluorescence imaging achieved larger penetration depth, higher signal/background ratios and nearly zero endogenous tissue autofluorescence. Moreover, these QDs illustrate the reliability during the real-time and long-time precise assessment of flap perfusion by clearly visualizing microvasculature map. These findings contribute to intraoperative imaging navigation with higher precision and lower risk.

Abstract
A nanoplatform based on Ag2S quantum dots (QDs) and tellurium nanorods (TeNRs) was developed for combined chemo-photothermal therapy guided by H2O2-activated near-infrared (NIR)-II fluorescence imaging. Polypeptide PC10AGRD-modified TeNRs and Ag2S QDs were co-encapsulated in 4T1 cell membrane to prepare a nanoplatform (CCM@AT). Ag2S QDs and TeNRs in the CCM@AT were used as a fluorescence probe and photosensitizer, and a chemotherapeutic prodrug and quenching agent to quench the fluorescence of Ag2S QDs, respectively. After the CCM@AT was specifically targeted to the tumor site, the TeNRs were dissolved by the high concentration of H2O2 at the tumor site to light up the fluorescence of Ag2S QDs for NIR-II fluorescence imaging. In addition, the generated toxic TeO66- molecules decreased ATP production by selective cancer chemotherapy, which is beneficial for photothermal therapy. The elevated temperature due to photothermal therapy in turn promoted the chemical reaction in chemotherapy. In vitro and in vivo toxicity results showed that the CCM@AT possesses high biocompatibility. Compared to single photothermal therapy and chemotherapy, the synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy can effectively suppress the growth of 4T1 tumor. This all-in-one nanoplatform provides a boulevard for the combination therapy of tumors guided by NIR-II fluorescence imaging. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: NIR-II fluorescence imaging shows the characteristics of low tissue absorption, reflection, and scattering, which can greatly reduce the influence of autofluorescence in vivo. However, the non-negligible effect of autofluorescence is still observed in fluorescence imaging in vivo. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a strategy of controlled release of fluorescence for accurate imaging and tumor therapy. Here, Ag2S quantum dots (QDs) with NIR-II fluorescence emission and good photothermal conversion efficiency are used as a fluorescence probe and photosensitizer, and tellurium nanorods (TeNRs) are used as a chemotherapeutic prodrug and quenching agent to quench the fluorescence of Ag2S QDs. This multiple nanoplatform provides an inspiration for the combination therapy of tumor guided by NIR-II fluorescence imaging.

Abstract
The interaction between light and biological tissues in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window is weak, which can effectively reduce the scattering and absorption of incoming light by biological tissues and enhance the resolution and sensing ability of in vivo photoacoustic (PA) imaging. In particular, tissues that carry blood and water produce the lowest PA background in the wavelength range of 1050 to 1150 nm. However, the development of the NIR-II PA probe for the above window faces great challenges. To tackle this challenge, the reduction-reoxidation of an organic dye was used to develop a PA imaging probe (Hydro-1048) as the first NIR-II PA probe of a hydroxy radical (·OH) for molecular imaging in deep tissue. The ·OH oxidized the C-N single bond in Hydro-1048 to double bonds, which formed Et-1065. This conversion extended the conjugate system of the molecule and shifted the absorption peak from 520 to 1065 nm, which resulted in a strong PA signal after irradiation with a 1065 nm laser. At a detection limit of 0.6 nM, a good linear relationship within the range of 5-1000 nM was obtained for the PA signal intensity versus the concentration of ·OH. The developed NIR-II PA probe can be used for the noninvasive high-resolution imaging of ·OH in deep tissue, and the PA imaging of ·OH can also be used to visually monitor in situ pathological processes related to hepatitis.

Abstract
Anisotropic rare-earth ion (RE3+) doped fluoride upconversion particles are emerging as a potential candidate in diverse areas, ranging from biomedical imaging to photonics. Here, we develop a facile strategy to synthesize NaYF4:Yb, Er, Gd and NaYF4:Yb, Tm, Gd upconversion nanorods via microwave synthesis route by controlling the synthesis time and compared the optical properties of similar nanorods prepared via solvothermal technique. With the increase in synthesis time, the phase of the particle was found to change from mixed-phase to purely hexagonal and the morphology of the particles change the mixed phase of spherical and rod-shaped particles to completely nanorods for a synthesis time of 60 minutes. Further, the intrinsically hydrophobic particles changed to hydrophilic by removal of oleic capping via acid treatment and the amine-functionalized silica coating. The upconversion luminescence, as well as laser power-dependent emission properties of the surface-modified particles, elucidate that the surface modification route influence the upconversion luminescence as well as solvent-dependent emission properties. Moreover, the laser power-dependent studies elucidate that the upconversion process in a multi-photon process.

Although molecular design strategies for highly bright near-infrared II (NIR-II) fluorophores were proposed, the lack of solid structural identification (single crystal) hinders the further development of this field. This thorny issue is addressed by performing the structure-function relationship of NIR-II dyes, as confirmed by molecular single crystal engineering. Single crystal structure analysis confirms that twisted architectures (large dihedral angles ∼70°) and loose packing patterns (intermolecular distance of ∼3.4-4.5 Å) are key elements to enhance the absolute quantum yield (QY) in the solid state. Through regulating donor-acceptor distance and donor-acceptor interactions, the resultant well-defined TBP-b-DFA fluorophore displays an absolute QY of 0.4% with an emission extending to 1400 nm, which is favorable for NIR-II bioimaging. The cerebrovascular function, including cerebral blood flow and cerebrovascular reactivity of different conditions, is accurately quantified by a NIR-II fluorescence wide-field microscope. Our study provides a sight for designing NIR-II fluorophores, which is useful for studying cerebrovascular function.

Abstract
Multiplexed imaging in the second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) window, with much reduced tissue scattering and autofluorescence background noises, could offer comprehensive information for studying biological processes and accurate diagnosis. A critical requirement for harvesting the full potential of multiplexing is to develop fluorescent probes with emission profiles specifically tuned at distinct excitations toward their target applications. However, the lack of versatile probes with separated signals in this NIR-II window hinders the potential of in vivo multiplexed imaging. In this study, we designed three types of Nd3+-, Ho3+-, and Er3+-based down-shifting nanoparticles (DSNPs) with core-shell structures (csNd, csHo, and csEr). Excitation wavelengths of these nanoparticles were first screened and confirmed at 730, 915, and 655 nm. Under the new excitations, orthogonal three-color emissions in the NIR-II window (1060, 1180, and 1525 nm for csNd, csHo, and csEr, respectively) were efficiently achieved. These excitation-selective DSNPs were then demonstrated to be promising in encrypted anticounterfeiting applications with increased optical codes. By programmed administration of the DSNPs, anatomical rotation imaging can also be successfully performed to differentiate mouse bones, stomach, and blood vessels with high contrast and resolution in a fixed NIR-II channel (>1000 nm) by only switching the excitation wavelengths. This study suggests that the designed NIR-II excitation-selective DSNPs with orthogonal emissions may offer a powerful framework for spatially multiplexed imaging in biological and life sciences.

Abstract
Dysregulated energy metabolism has recently been recognized as an emerging hallmark of cancer. Tumor cells, which are characterized by abnormal glycolysis, exhibit a lower extracellular pH (6.5-7.0) than normal tissues (7.2-7.4), providing a promising target for tumor-specific imaging and therapy. However, most pH-sensitive materials are unable to distinguish such a subtle pH difference owing to their wide and continuous pH-responsive range. In this study, we developed an efficient strategy for the fabrication of a tumor metabolic acidity-activatable calcium phosphate (CaP) fluorescent probe (termed MACaP9). Unlike traditional CaP-based biomedical nanomaterials, which only work within more acidic organelles, such as endosomes and lysosomes (pH 4.0-6.0), MACaP9 could not only specifically respond to the tumor extra-cellular pH but also rapidly convert pH variations into a distinct fluorescence signal to visually distinguish tumor from normal tissues. The superior sensitivity and specificity of MACaP9 enabled high-contrast visualization of a broad range of tumors, as well as small tumor lesions.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanohybrids are promising photo energy conversion materials in photoelectronics and biomedicine, due to their unique surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Au and Cu2-x Sx nanostructures with strong SPR in the near-infrared (NIR) spectral region are classic plasmonic systems used to convert NIR photons into heat for photothermal therapy (PTT). The rational design of the Au/Cu2-x Sx nanohybrids is expected to induce better photothermal conversion; however, the construction of such hybrids via wet-chemistry methods with a well-controlled interfacial structure is still challenging. Here, the synthesis of an AuCu Star/Cu2-x Sx nanohybrid is reported, where the Cu2-x Sx components are selectively grown on the AuCu nanostar tips to form "caps". The spatial formation of the Cu2-x Sx caps on star tips is mainly governed by surfactant concentration, tip curvature, and experimental manipulation. The nanohybrids show low cytotoxicity and superior photothermal conversion efficiency, enabling robust PTT to kill cancer cells in the second NIR window. Numerical simulation reveals that the coupling of Cu2-x Sx on nanostar tips generates strong interfacial electric field, improving photothermal conversion. Moreover, the spatial separation structure favors the continuous flow of hot charge carriers to produce active radicals, further promoting the tumor treatment effect.

Abstract
In vivo fluorescence imaging can perform real-time, noninvasive, and high spatiotemporal resolution imaging to accurately obtain the dynamic biological information in vivo, which plays significant roles in the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer. However, traditional in vivo fluorescence imaging usually operates in the visible and near-infrared (NIR)-I windows, which are severely interfered by the strong tissue absorption, tissue scattering, and autofluorescence. The emergence of NIR-II imaging at 1000-1700 nm significantly breaks through the imaging limitations in deep tissues, due to less tissue scattering and absorption. Benefiting from the outstanding optical properties of NIR-II quantum dots (QDs), such as high brightness and good photostability, in vivo fluorescence imaging exhibits excellent temporal-spatial resolution and large penetration depth, and QDs have become a kind of promising fluorescent biomarkers in the field of in vivo fluorescence imaging. Herein, the authors review NIR-II QDs from preparation to modification, and summarize recent applications of NIR-II QDs, including in vivo imaging and imaging-guided therapies. Finally, they discuss the special concerns when NIR-II QDs are shifted from in vivo imaging applications to further in-depth applications.

Abstract
The surgical removal of lesions is among the most common and effective treatments for atherosclerosis. It is often the only curative treatment option, and the ability to visualize the full extent of atherosclerotic plaque during the operation has major implications for the therapeutic outcome. Fluorescence imaging is a promising approach for the inspection of atherosclerotic plaques during surgery. However, there is no systematic strategy for intraoperative fluorescent imaging in atherosclerosis. In this study, the in situ attachment of a lipid-activatable fluorescent probe (CN-N2)-soaked patch to the outer arterial surface is reported for rapid and precise localization of the atherosclerotic plaque in ApoE-deficient mouse during surgery. Stable imaging of the plaque is conducted within 5 min via rapid recognition of abnormally accumulated lipid droplets (LDs) in foam cells. Furthermore, the plaque/normal ratio (P/N) is significantly enhanced to facilitate surgical delineation of carotid atherosclerotic plaques. Visible fluorescence bioimaging using lipid-activatable probes can accurately delineate plaque sizes down to diameters of <0.5 mm, and the images can be swiftly captured within the stable plaque imaging time window. These findings on intraoperative fluorescent imaging of plaques via the in situ attachment of the CN-N2 patch hold promise for effective clinical applications.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases have become the major killers in today's world, among which coronary artery diseases (CADs) make the greatest contributions to morbidity and mortality. Although state-of-the-art technologies have increased our knowledge of the cardiovascular system, the current diagnosis and treatment modalities for CADs still have limitations. As an emerging cross-disciplinary approach, nanotechnology has shown great potential for clinical use. In this review, recent advances in nanotechnology in the diagnosis of CADs will first be elucidated. Both the sensitivity and specificity of biosensors for biomarker detection and molecular imaging strategies, such as magnetic resonance imaging, optical imaging, nuclear scintigraphy, and multimodal imaging strategies, have been greatly increased with the assistance of nanomaterials. Second, various nanomaterials, such as liposomes, polymers (PLGA), inorganic nanoparticles (AuNPs, MnO2, etc.), natural nanoparticles (HDL, HA), and biomimetic nanoparticles (cell-membrane coating) will be discussed as engineered as drug (chemicals, proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids) carriers targeting pathological sites based on their optimal physicochemical properties and surface modification potential. Finally, some of these nanomaterials themselves are regarded as pharmaceuticals for the treatment of atherosclerosis because of their intrinsic antioxidative/anti-inflammatory and photoelectric/photothermal characteristics in a complex plaque microenvironment. In summary, novel nanotechnology-based research in the process of clinical transformation could continue to expand the horizon of nanoscale technologies in the diagnosis and therapy of CADs in the foreseeable future. Nanotechnology represents new viable approaches for diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide Nanotechnology-assisted biosensing and molecular imaging can improve the sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases Nanomaterials enable targeted drug delivery or directly exert therapeutic action for cardiovascular system, based on their physicochemical properties and surface modification

Abstract
Near-infrared-II (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) fluorescence imaging boasts high spatial resolution and deep tissue penetration due to low light scattering, reduced photon absorption, and low tissue autofluorescence. NIR-II biological imaging is applied mainly in the noninvasive visualization of blood vessels and tumors in deep tissue. In the study, a stereo NIR-II fluorescence imaging system was developed for acquiring three-dimension (3D) images on tumor vasculature in real-time, on top of the development of fluorescent semiconducting polymer dots (IR-TPE Pdots) with ultra-bright NIR-II fluorescence (1000–1400 nm) and high stability to perform long-term fluorescence imaging. The NIR-II imaging system only consists of one InGaAs camera and a moving stage to simulate left-eye view and right-eye view for the construction of 3D in-depth blood vessel images. The system was validated with blood vessel phantom of tumor-bearing mice and was applied successfully in obtaining 3D blood vessel images with 0.6 mm- and 5 mm-depth resolution and 0.15 mm spatial resolution. The NIR-II stereo vision provides precise 3D information on the tumor microenvironment and blood vessel path.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2022; 61:e202114273.

Abstract
Early detection of kidney disease is of vital importance due to its current prevalence worldwide. Fluorescence imaging, especially in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II) has been regarded as a promising technique for the early diagnosis of kidney disease due to the superior resolution and sensitivity. However, the reported NIR-II organic renal-clearable probes are hampered by their low brightness (ϵmax Φf>1000 nm <10 M-1 cm-1 ) and limited blood circulation time (t1/2 <2 h), which impede the targeted imaging performance. Herein, we develop the aza-boron-dipyrromethene (aza-BODIPY) brush macromolecular probes (Fudan BDIPY Probes (FBP 912)) with high brightness (ϵmax Φf>1000 nm ≈60 M-1 cm-1 ), which is about 10-fold higher than that of previously reported NIR-II renal-clearable organic probes. FBP 912 exhibits an average diameter of ≈4 nm and high renal clearance efficiency (≈65 % excretion through the kidney within 12 h), showing superior performance for non-invasively diagnosis of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (RIR) earlier than clinical serum-based protocols. Additionally, the high molecular weight polymer brush enables FBP 912 with prolonged circulation time (t1/2 ≈6.1 h) and higher brightness than traditional PEGylated renal-clearable control fluorophores (t1/2 <2 h), facilitating for 4T1 tumor passive targeted imaging and renal cell carcinoma active targeted imaging with higher signal-to-noise ratio and extended retention time.

Organic NIR-II dyes with ultralong circulation persistence for image-guided delivery and therapy. J Control Release 2022; 342:157-169. [PMID: 34998914 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2022.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Revised: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Nanocarriers hold great promise for the controlled release of therapeutic payloads to target organs/tissues and extended duration of anticancer agents in the bloodstream. However, limited data on their in vivo pharmacokinetics and delivery process hamper clinical applications. Here we report a series of micellar nanocarriers self-assembled from new-generation thiophenthiadiazole (TTD)-based NIR-II fluorophores HLAnP (n = 1-4) for simultaneous bioimaging and drug delivery. The NIR-II HLA4P nanocarrier displays exceptional non-fouling performance, minimal immunogenicity, ultralong blood half-life, and high tumor accumulation even with different administration routes. When used as a drug carrier, HLA4P with encapsulated doxorubicin (DOX) realized accurate tumor targeting and continuous real-time in vivo NIR-II tracking of drug delivery and therapy, showing a sustained release rate, improved therapeutic effect, and diminished cardiotoxicity as compared to free DOX. This study provides a new perspective on the design of dual-functional NIR-II fluorophores for diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
