Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG) is an inert polypeptide that almost totally binds to high molecular weight plasma proteins; it is cleared by the hepatocytes and directly excreted into the bile with a half-life of about 3-5 minutes. Specific systems are required to see fluorescent images. The use of this dye has been reported in different surgical specialties, and the applications in hepatobiliary surgery are widening. Being firstly used to evaluate the preoperative liver function, intra- and postoperative dynamic checking of hepatic activity has been reported and integrated within perioperative protocols allowing a tailored treatment allocation. Intravenous injection (IV) or injection into the gallbladder can ease difficult cholecystectomy. Biliary leakage detection could be enhanced by IV ICG injection. Although with some contrasting results, the use of ICG for both delineating the limits of the resection and tumor-enhanced visualization was demonstrated to improve short- and long-term outcomes. Although the lack of strong evidence still precludes the introduction of this tool in clinical practice, it harbors great potential in liver surgery.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a wound-healing response to chronic liver injury, which may lead to cirrhosis and cancer. Early-stage fibrosis is reversible, and it is difficult to precisely diagnose with conventional imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, single-photon emission computed tomography, and ultrasound imaging. In contrast, probe-assisted molecular imaging offers a promising noninvasive approach to visualize early fibrosis changes in vivo, thus facilitating early diagnosis and staging liver fibrosis, and even monitoring of the treatment response. Here, the most recent progress in molecular imaging technologies for liver fibrosis is updated. We start by illustrating pathogenesis for liver fibrosis, which includes capillarization of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, cellular and molecular processes involved in inflammation and fibrogenesis, as well as processes of collagen synthesis, oxidation, and cross-linking. Furthermore, the biological targets used in molecular imaging of liver fibrosis are summarized, which are composed of receptors on hepatic stellate cells, macrophages, and even liver collagen. Notably, the focus is on insights into the advances in imaging modalities developed for liver fibrosis diagnosis and the update in the corresponding contrast agents. In addition, challenges and opportunities for future research and clinical translation of the molecular imaging modalities and the contrast agents are pointed out. We hope that this review would serve as a guide for scientists and students who are interested in liver fibrosis imaging and treatment, and as well expedite the translation of molecular imaging technologies from bench to bedside.

Abstract
Fluorescent sensors have been widely applied for biosensing, but probes for both multiple analytes sensing and photodynamic therapy (PDT) effect are less reported. In this article, we reported three AIE-based probes anchored with different mass-weight polyethylene glycol (PEG) tails, i.e., TPE-PEG160, TPE-PEG350, and TPE-PEG750, for both adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) detection and also cancer cells photodynamic therapy. TPE-PEGns (n = 160, 350 and 750) contain the tetraphenylethylene-based fluorophore core, the pyridinium and amide anion binding sites, the H2S cleavable disulfide bond, and the hydrophilic PEG chain. They exhibit a good amphiphilic property and can self-assemble nona-aggregation with a moderated red emission in an aqueous solution. Importantly, the size of aggregation, photophysical property, sensing ability and photosensitivity of these amphiphilic probes can be controlled by tuning the PEG chain length. Moreover, the selected probe TPE-PEG160 has been successfully used to detect environmental H2S and image ATP levels in living cells, and TPE-PEG750 has been used for photodynamic therapy of tumor cells under light irradiation.

Abstract
Insufficient accumulation of drug at the tumor site and the low drug response are the main reason for the unsatisfactory effect of cancer therapy. Delivery drugs exquisitely to subcellular level can be employed to reduce side effects, and expand the therapeutic window. Herein, a triphenylphosphine (TPP) modified lipid nanoparticles is designed which are loaded with the photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG) and chemotherapeutic paclitaxel (PTX) for mitochondria-targeted chemo-phototherapy. Owing to the movement of majority mitochondria along microtubules in cytoplasm, mitochondrial targeting may enable PTX to act more effectively. Meanwhile, the existence of chemo-drug potentiates the phototherapy to achieve synergistic anti-tumor activity. As expected, mitochondria targeting nanomedicine (M-ICG-PTX NPs) showed improved mitochondria targeted cellular distribution and enhanced cell cytotoxicity in vitro. Also, M-ICG-PTX NPs exhibited higher tumor growth inhibition ability by promoting cell apoptosis and oxeiptosis pathway, and high effective inhibition of primary tumor growth and tumor metastasis. Taken together, M-ICG-PTX NPs may be promising nanoplatforms to achieve potent therapeutic effect for the combination of chemo- and photo-therapy (PTT).

Abstract
Here, a D-A-D type fluorescent conjugated molecule with a high molar absorption coefficient and emission at 1120 nm in the near-infrared region was synthesized. Conjugated molecules and two polyethylene glycol polymers with different lipophilic ends are assembled into water-soluble nanoparticles to improve their biocompatibility. Then, their physical and chemical properties were studied and compared. Compared with phospholipid-based PEG, styrene-based PEG can reduce the π-π stacking between molecules and the quenching caused by molecular aggregation. It has more advantages in particle size and fluorescence performance and can be better used in biological imaging. In addition, the Nano-particles have good photo-thermal conversion efficiency; the temperature rises to 62.8°C after 980 nm irradiation for 6 min, which can be used as a potential near-infrared II photothermal therapeutic agent. In vivo imaging experiments confirmed that nanomaterials have fluorescence, photoacoustic dual-modal imaging and good biological safety. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: : In this work, we constructed D-A-D type dual donor fluorescent molecules using BBTD, CPDT and EDOT, and used amphiphilic polymers to improve their biocompatibility. Compared with DSPE NPs, PS-NPs can reduce intermolecular π-π stacking and increase quantum yield (QY = 0.98 %). Deep penetration and low biological toxicity make it have biomedical value and realize the integration of multi-functional collaborative imaging. This work can still be further improved and supplemented, and the molecular structure can be optimized to improve its application in biomedical imaging.

Abstract
The second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging has attracted continuous attention due to its excellent penetration depth and high spatial resolution. Compared with other fluorophores, NIR-II fluorophores, especially NIR-II organic small molecule fluorophores, are favored because of their controllable structure and good biocompatibility. In this study, we designed and synthesized an S-D-A-D-S type small molecule FEA. However, a new molecule was accidentally obtained in the process of synthesis, which was proved to be a double receptor (A-A) type small molecule, namely S-D-A-A-D-S type organic small molecule FEAA. Compared with FEA molecules, FEAA exhibits superior fluorescence performance and can effectively prevent fluorescence quenching. The fluorescence emission of its nanoparticles (NPs) reaches 1109 nm, extends to about 1400 nm, and has a Stokes shift of up to 472 nm. Subsequently, we realized fluorescence/photoacoustic dual-mode imaging (FI/PAI) of nude mouse liver, and finally effectively ablated 4T1 tumor by photothermal therapy (PTT). In general, FEAA NPs exhibit good fluorescence, photoacoustic, and photothermal effects, and are an excellent multifunctional NIR-II organic small molecule fluorophore. As far as we know, there are few reports on A-A type organic small molecules, most of which are cyanines or D-A-D type structures. Therefore, this study has good exploratory significance and reference value for the discovery of NIR-II fluorophores.

Abstract
Heterogeneous cells are the main feature of tumors with unique genetic and phenotypic characteristics, which can stimulate differentially the progression, metastasis, and drug resistance. Importantly, heterogeneity is pervasive in human malignant tumors, and identification of the degree of tumor heterogeneity in individual tumors and progression is a critical task for tumor treatment. However, current medical tests cannot meet these needs; in particular, the need for noninvasive visualization of single-cell heterogeneity. Near-infrared II (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) imaging exhibits an exciting prospect for non-invasive monitoring due to the high temporal-spatial resolution. More importantly, NIR-II imaging displays more extended tissue penetration depths and reduced tissue backgrounds because of the significantly lower photon scattering and tissue autofluorescence than traditional the near-infrared I (NIR-I) imaging. In this review, we summarize systematically the advances made in NIR-II in tumor imaging, especially in the detection of tumor heterogeneity and progression as well as in tumor treatment. As a non-invasive visual inspection modality, NIR-II imaging shows promising prospects for understanding the differences in tumor heterogeneity and progression and is envisioned to have the potential to be used clinically.

Abstract
Hypoxia is closely linked to various diseases, including solid tumors. The level of nitroreductase (NTR) is usually abnormally upregulated in hypoxic conditions, which can be a biomarker of hypoxia. Herein, the first endoplasmic reticulum-targeting NIR fluorescent probe, ISO-NTR, was developed for highly selective and sensitive detection of NTR. It shows a large Stokes shift (185 nm) and a 5-fold increases in fluorescence intensity. Meanwhile, the ISO-NTR probe with a dicyanoisophorone derivative has excellent endoplasmic reticulum targeting in living systems with high Pearson's correlation coefficients (Rr = 0.9489). Molecular docking calculations and high binding energy between the probe and NTR (-10.78 kcal·mol-1) may explain the high selectivity of ISO-NTR. Additionally, it has been successfully applied to NTR imaging in vitro and vivo due to its good sensitivity, high selectivity and large Stokes shift, which may provide an effective method for studying the physiological and pathological functions of NTR in living systems. This probe could be developed as a potential imaging tool to further explore the pathogenesis of hypoxia-related diseases in endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window holds great promise for in vivo visualization of amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology, which can facilitate characterization and deep understanding of Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, it has been rarely exploited. Herein, we report the development of NIR-II fluorescent reporters with a donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) architecture for specific detection of Aβ plaques in AD-model mice. Among all the designed probes, DMP2 exhibits the highest affinity to Aβ fibrils and can specifically activate its NIR-II fluorescence after binding to Aβ fibrils via suppressed twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) effect. With suitable lipophilicity for ideal blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetrability and deep-tissue penetration of NIR-II fluorescence, DMP2 possesses specific detection of Aβ plaques in in vivo AD-model mice. Thus, this study presents a potential agent for non-invasive imaging of Aβ plaques and deep deciphering of AD progression.

Abstract
In the process of finding better therapeutics, thousands of new molecules are synthesised every day. Many of these can be poorly soluble in water, leading to a potentially promising drug being rejected during testing due to its poor solubility. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) has become known as an excellent modification to remedy this and was initially used to increase circulation time and reduce the immunogenicity of therapeutic proteins. Thus significantly increasing their safety and range of use. Another group of compounds in which significant benefits of pegylation have been seen are photosensitisers. Used in photodynamic therapy, they are often characterised by very high hydrophobicity. Pegylation of their structure significantly increases their affinity for cancer cells and facilitates their penetration through cell membranes. Classical small-molecule drugs can benefit from temporary combinations hydrolysed in the body or very short PEG chains. This approach allows a significant increase in the bioavailability of the drug while avoiding the disadvantages of small molecule pegylation. However, the most common motive for pegylation recently is the creation of drug carriers. Liposomes and nanoparticles make it possible to exploit the advantages of PEG to stabilise their structure and increase circulation time while not modifying the structure of the active compound. Unfortunately, PEGs also have their drawbacks. The first is their high molecular weight range, especially for longer chains, which poses difficulties in purification. Another is the emergence of antibodies directed against PEG. Nevertheless, pegylation is still an up-and-coming method for modifying pharmaceutically active molecules.

Abstract
Optical imaging in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window has attracted interest in recent years because of the merits of reduced light scattering, minimal autofluorescence from biological tissues and deeper penetration depth in this wavelength range. In this review, we summarize NIR-II organic contrast agents reported in the past decade for photoacoustic and fluorescence imaging including members of the cyanine family, D-A-D structure dyes, phthalocyanines and semiconducting polymers. Improved imaging contrast and higher resolution could be favorably achieved by rational design of NIR-II fluorophores by tuning their properties including molar extinction coefficient, fluorescence quantum yield, emission wavelength and others. A wide variety of applications using NIR-II dyes has been realized including imaging of tumors, lymphatics, brains, intestines and others. Emerging applications such as targeted imaging and activable imaging with improved resolution and sensitivity have been demonstrated by innovative chemical modification of NIR-II dyes. Looking forward, rational design of improved NIR-II dyes for advanced bioimaging is likely to remain an area of interest for next-generation potential approaches to disease diagnosis.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2022; 34:e2206643.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of renal fibrosis is crucially significant on account of its worldwide prevalent tendency. Optical imaging in the near-infrared window has been recognized as an appealing technique for the timely detection of renal dysfunction. However, formulating a contrast agent that allows early monitoring of renal fibrosis and concurrently renally clearable in a normal group is still challenging. Herein, a nanosized fluorophore with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) features, namely AIE-4PEG550 NPs, is well-tailored and amenable to longitudinal visualization of the fibrosis progression specifically in the early-stage via short-wave infrared (SWIR, 900-1700 nm) fluorescence and photoacoustic bimodal imaging. The small size (≈26 nm), renally filtrable molecular weight (3.3 kDa), high renal clearance efficiency (93.1 ± 1.7% excretion through the kidneys within 24 h), outstanding imaging performance, and good biocompatibility, together make AIE-4PEG550 NPs remarkably impressive and far superior to clinical diagnostic assays. The finding in this study would provide a blueprint for the next generation of diagnostic agents for the extent of renal fibrosis.

Abstract
Integrating multiple functionalities of near-infrared second window fluorescence imaging (NIR-Ⅱ FLI), chemotherapy, and photothermal treatment (PTT) into a single molecule is desirable but still a highly challenging task. Herein, inspired by the results that hyperthermia can enhance the cytotoxicity of some alkylating agents, we designed and synthesized the novel compound NM. By introducing nitrogen mustard's active moiety bis(2-chlorethyl)amino into Donor-Acceptor-Donor (D-A-D) electronic structure, the unimolecular system not only behaviored as a chemotherapeutic agent but also exhibited good PTT and NIR-Ⅱ FLI abilities. The hydrophobic agent NM was encapsulated by DSPE-PEG2000 to generate the nano-platform NM-NPs. The current study on in vitro and in vivo experiments indicated that NM-NPs make vessels visualize clearly in the NIR-II zone and achieve complete tumor elimination through chemo-photothermal synergistic treatment. Overall, this study provides a new innovative strategy for developing superior, versatile phototheranostics for cancer theranostics.

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.

Abstract
Recent interest in research on photoluminescent molecules due to their unique properties has played an important role in advancing the bioimaging field. In particular, small molecules and organic dots as probes have great potential for the achievement of bioimaging because of their desirable properties. In this review, we provide an introduction of probes consisting of fluorescent small molecules and polymers that emit light across the ultraviolet and near-infrared wavelength ranges, along with a brief summary of the most recent techniques for bioimaging. Since photoluminescence probes emitting light in different ranges have different goals and targets, their respective strategies also differ. Diverse and novel strategies using photoluminescence probes against targets have gradually been introduced in the related literature. Among recent papers (published within the last 5 years) on the topic, we here concentrate on the photophysical properties and strategies for the design of molecular probes, with key examples of in vivo photoluminescence research for practical applications. More in-depth studies on these probes will provide key insights into how to control the molecular structure and size/shape of organic probes for expanded bioimaging research and applications.

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.

Abstract
Most NIR-II fluorescent dyes, especially polymethine cyanine, face the inevitable self-quenching phenomenon in an aqueous solution. This unacceptable property has severely limited their application in high-resolution biological imaging. Here, a NIR-II macromolecular probe (MPAE) is synthesized through the structure modification of molecule probe and the covalent coupling of an amphiphilic polypeptide, which presents considerable biocompatibility and negligible systemic side effect. The molecule probe's stereo structure and the polymer's conjugation could effectively prevent the π-π stacking, thereby exhibiting excellent quenching resistance in aqueous solutions (absolute QY = 0.178%). This remarkable feature endows it with deeper tissue penetration than the clinically used indocyanine green (ICG) and high contrast brightness at the tumor site for the NIR-II fluorescence imaging. Based on the effective accumulation of tumor sites and considerable photothermal conversion efficiency (40.07%), the MPAE-NPS presents superior antitumor efficiency on breast tumor-bearing mice under the 1064 nm irradiation without rebound or recurrence. All these outstanding performances reveal the great promise of MPAE-NPS in Nano-drug delivery and imaging-assisted photothermal therapy in the NIR-II window.

Abstract
Complete excision of the last remaining 1-2% of tumor tissue without collateral damage remains particularly challenging. Herein, we report thiophenthiadiazole (TTD)-derived fluorophores L6-PEGnk (n = 1, 2, 5) as new-generation NIR-II (1000-1700 nm) probes with exceptional nonfouling performance and significantly high fluorescence quantum yields in water. L6-PEG2k can self-assemble into vesicular micelles and exhibited minimal immunogenicity, low binding affinities, ultralong blood circulation (t1/2 = 59.5 h), and a supercontrast ratio in vivo. Most importantly, L6-PEG2k achieved excellent in vivo CT-26 and U87MG tumor targeting and accumulation (>20 d) through intraperitoneal or intravenous injection. A subcutaneous U87MG tumor and orthotopic brain glioma were successfully resected under NIR-II FIGS in our animal model via intraperitoneal injection in an extended time window (48-144 h). This study highlights the potential of using L6-PEG2K as self-assembling molecular probes with long-circulation persistence for routine preoperative tumor assessment and precise intraoperative image-guided resection.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant cancer in the world, which greatly threatens human health. However, the routine treatment strategies for HCC have failed to specifically eradicate the tumorigenic cells, leading to the occurrence of metastasis and recurrence. To improve treatment efficacies, the development of novel effective technologies is urgently required. Recently, nanotechnologies have gained the extensive attention in cancer targeted therapy, which could provide a promising way for HCC clinical practice. However, a successful cancer management depends on accurate diagnosis of the tumour along with precise therapeutic protocol, thereby predicting the tumour response to existing therapies. The synergistic effect of targeted therapeutic systems and imaging approaches (also called 'imaging-guided cancer treatment') may establish a more effective platform for individual cancer care. This review outlines the recent advanced nano-targeted and -traceable therapeutic strategies for HCC management. The multifunctional nano agents that have both diagnosis and therapy abilities are highlighted. Finally, we conclude with our perspectives on the future development and challenges of HCC nanotheranostics.

Abstract
Cancer is still one of the main causes of morbidity and death rate around the world, although diagnostic and therapeutic technologies are used to advance human disease treatment. Currently, surgical resection of solid tumors is the most effective and a prior remedial measure to treat cancer. Although medical treatment, technology, and science have advanced significantly, it is challenging to completely treat this lethal disease. Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence, including the first near-infrared region (NIR-I, 650-900 nm) and the second near-infrared region (NIR-II, 1,000-1,700 nm), plays an important role in image-guided cancer surgeries due to its inherent advantages, such as great tissue penetration, minimal tissue absorption and emission light scattering, and low autofluorescence. By virtue of its high precision in identifying tumor tissue margins, there are growing number of NIR fluorescence-guided surgeries for various living animal models as well as patients in clinical therapy. Herein, this review introduces the basic construction and operation principles of fluorescence molecular imaging technology, and the representative application of NIR-I/II image-guided surgery in biomedical research studies are summarized. Ultimately, we discuss the present challenges and future perspectives in the field of fluorescence imaging for surgical navigation and also put forward our opinions on how to improve the efficiency of the surgical treatment.

Abstract
In vivo imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm), which enables us to look deeply into living subjects, is producing marvelous opportunities for biomedical research and clinical applications. Very recently, there has been an upsurge of interdisciplinary studies focusing on developing versatile types of inorganic/organic fluorophores that can be used for noninvasive NIR-IIa/IIb imaging (NIR-IIa, 1300-1400 nm; NIR-IIb, 1500-1700 nm) with near-zero tissue autofluorescence and deeper tissue penetration. This review provides an overview of the reports published to date on the design, properties, molecular imaging, and theranostics of inorganic/organic NIR-IIa/IIb fluorophores. First, we summarize the design concepts of the up-to-date functional NIR-IIa/IIb biomaterials, in the order of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), quantum dots (QDs), rare-earth-doped nanoparticles (RENPs), and organic fluorophores (OFs). Then, these novel imaging modalities and versatile biomedical applications brought by these superior fluorescent properties are reviewed. Finally, challenges and perspectives for future clinical translation, aiming at boosting the clinical application progress of NIR-IIa and NIR-IIb imaging technology are highlighted.

Adv Healthc Mater 2021; 10:e2101003.

Abstract
Small organic phototherapeutic molecules of the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window (1000-1700 nm) serve as promising candidates for theranostics. However, developing such versatile agents for fluorescence-guided photodynamic/photothermal therapy remains a demanding task stirred by competitive energy dissipation pathways, including radiative decay, internal conversion, and intersystem crossing. To the best of current knowledge, the current paradigm for addressing the issue has deliberately approached the optimum balance among three deactivation processes through offsetting from each other, possibly leading to a comprehensively compromised theranostic efficacy. Few reports aim to modulate the three deactivation pathways excluding sacrificing any one of them. Herein, a molecular design strategy to construct a phototherapeutic organic fluorophore CCNU-1060, armed with NIR-II luorescence-guided phototherapeutic properties, is rationally developed. With a flexible motor, tetraphenylethene, bridged to the rigidified coplanar core boron-azadipyrromethene, the desired CCNU-1060 is subsequently encapsulated into an amphiphilic matrix to form CCNU-1060 nanoparticles (NPs), which match or transcend its precursor NJ-1060 NPs in the three energy dissipation processes. CCNU-1060 NPs are utilized to realize high-spatial vessel imaging and effective NIR-II fluorescence-guided phototherapeutic tumor ablation. This study unlocks a viewpoint of molecular engineering that simultaneously regulates multiple energy dissipation pathways for the construction of versatile phototherapy agents.

Abstract
Imaging in the second near-infrared II (NIR-II) window, a kind of biomedical imaging technology with characteristics of high sensitivity, high resolution, and real-time imaging, is commonly used in the diagnosis of brain diseases. Compared with the conventional visible light (400-750 nm) and NIR-I (750-900 nm) imaging, the NIR-II has a longer wavelength of 1000-1700 nm. Notably, the superiorities of NIR-II can minimize the light scattering and autofluorescence of biological tissue with the depth of brain tissue penetration up to 7.4 mm. Herein, we summarized the main principles of NIR-II in animal models of traumatic brain injury, cerebrovascular visualization, brain tumor, inflammation, and stroke. Simultaneously, we encapsulated the in vivo process of NIR-II probes and their in vivo and in vitro toxic effects. We further dissected its limitations and following optimization measures.

Abstract
In recent years, people have been actively exploring new imaging methods with high biological imaging performance because the clinical image definition and depth in vivo cannot meet the requirements of early diagnosis and prognosis. Based on the traditional near-infrared region I (NIR-I), the molecular probe of the near-infrared region II (NIR-II) is further explored and developed. In the NIR-II region due to the wavelength is longer than the NIR-I region can effectively reduce the molecular scattering, optical absorption of the organization, the organization of spontaneous fluorescence negligible, thus the NIR-II Fluorescence imaging (FI) can get deeper penetration depth, higher signal-to-background ratio (SBR) and better spatiotemporal resolution, FI in NIR-II region are an important and rapidly developing research region for future imaging. In the NIR-II fluorophore, small organic molecule fluorophore has attracted much attention because of its good biocompatibility and good pharmacokinetic properties. In this review, we briefly introduced the existing NIR-II organic small molecule fluorophores, and introduced the existing relatively mature methods for improving quantum yield and water solubility, and the small molecule dyes on FI of various improvement methods, also briefly introduces the small molecules of photoacoustic imaging (PAI), and a brief introduction of imaging-guided surgery (IGS) for some small organic molecules, finally, a reasonable prospect is made for the development of small organic molecules.

Abstract
Hepatectomy is a main therapeutic strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which requires removal of primary and disseminated tumors and maximum preservation of normal liver tissue. However, in a clinical operation, it is difficult to recognize the tumor tissue and its boundary with the naked eye and palpation, which often leads to insufficient or excessive resection. Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging, a non-invasive, real-time, low-cost, and highly sensitive imaging technique has been extensively studied in surgical navigation. With the development of fluorescence imaging system and fluorescent probe, intraoperative tumor detection and margin definition can be achieved, making the operation more accurate. Advances in fluorescence imaging of HCC in the NIR region have focused on the traditional first NIR window (NIR-I, 700–900 nm), and have recently been extended to the second NIR window (NIR-II, 1,000–1,700 nm). Compared with NIR-I imaging, fluorescence imaging in the NIR-II exhibits great advantages, including higher spatial resolution, deeper penetration depth, and lower optical absorption and scattering from biological substrates with minimal tissue autofluorescence. There is no doubt that developing novel NIRF probes for in vivo imaging of HCC has high significance and direct impact on the field of liver surgery. In this article, the development of various NIRF probes for fluorescence image guided HCC hepatectomy is reviewed, and current challenges and potential opportunities of these imaging probes are discussed.

Abstract
Near-infrared dyes possess the qualities of lower interference with biological autofluorescence, low photon scattering, and deep tissue penetration, and are being increasingly involved in the development of biomaterials for sensing and precision medicine. However, dyes usually suffer from the disadvantages of poor water solubility and photobleaching, factors that limit their application in vivo. The introduction of supramolecular ensembles can provide an ideal solution. This review presents recently developed supramolecular ensembles modified by near-infrared dyes. Compared with small-molecule fluorophores, the specific size of a supramolecular-based fluorophore endows it with longer circulation time in the bloodstream, increasing its chances of reaching a specific target. In addition, the construction of supramolecule-based fluorophores with versatile functions can be achieved by simple encapsulation or doping, instead of by complicated chemical synthesis. Thus, supramolecular-complex-based fluorophores offer high potential in diagnosis and therapy. This review outlines four different species of near-infrared dye based ensembles in terms of their method of formation, including simple encapsulation or doping and copolymerisation. Recently, a new technology has employed modified fluorophores for in situ self-assembly that form supramolecular ensembles at a specific position, thus solving the problem of poor uptake of nanoparticles by cells, and is included in this review. Finally, the future of this field is considered.

Abstract
In the recent decades, fluorogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIEgens) have been intensively explored in biomedical applications. One main strategy to bring these hydrophobic AIEgens into the aqueous biological environment is to encapsulate them in nanoparticles with functionalized polymeric matrices. However, exploration of reliable strategies that can afford AIE nanoparticles with uniform size and stable loading efficiency with minimized variation still remains a challenge. Here, we rationally designed amphiphilic AIEgens, constructed by a hydrophobic donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) core and hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) chain. The afforded amphiphilic AIEgens can self-assemble into uniform nanoparticles with average sizes of ~35 nm, showing an emission maximum beyond 1000 nm and quantum yields (QYs) above 10%. We then used the bright AIE nanoparticles for multiscale intravital vascular fluorescence imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) in mouse and rabbit models with a high-resolution of ~38 μm and a penetration depth of ~1 cm. As such, our results demonstrate an efficient self-assembly strategy to construct advanced AIE nanoparticles for angiography.

Abstract
Surgical resection is a mainstay treatment for solid tumors. Yet, methods to distinguish malignant from healthy tissue are primarily limited to tactile and visual cues as well as the surgeon's experience. As a result, there is a possibility that a positive surgical margin (PSM) or the presence of residual tumor left behind after resection may occur. It is well-documented that PSMs can negatively impact treatment outcomes and survival, as well as pose an economic burden. Therefore, surgical tumor imaging techniques have emerged as a promising method to decrease PSM rates. Nanoparticles (NPs) have unique characteristics to serve as optical contrast agents during image-guided surgery (IGS). Recently, there has been tremendous growth in the volume and types of NPs used for IGS, including clinical trials. Herein, we describe the most recent contributions of nanotechnology for surgical tumor identification. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanoscale Tools and Techniques in Surgery Diagnostic Tools > in vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging.

Abstract
Tobacco mosaic virus helicase (TMV-Hel) plays important roles in viral multiplication. TMV-Hel is a potential target of anti-TMV agents. Our previous studies expressed and purified TMV-Hel as target protein for cytosinpeptidemycin. In this study, we preform molecular docking to study the binding sites of commercial antiviral agents with TMV-Hel. Then we verify the interactions between the potential anti-TMV agents and TMV-Hel in vitro using Microscale Thermophoresis experiment and study the inhibiting expression of TMV-Hel with the potential anti-TMV agents in vivo using Western-blot (WB) method. The results showed that ribavirin bound to TMV-Hel with a dissociation constant of 1.55 μM by direct interaction with eight binding sites, which was consistent with the docking studies. Ribavirin inhibited the expression of TMV-Hel in Nicotiana benthamiana. Docking studies combined Microscale Thermophoresis and WB experiment provided a new method to screen anti-TMV agents targeting TMV-Hel.

Theranostics 2020; 10:6875-6885.

Abstract
Lanthanide based nanoprobe with high efficient down-shifting second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) emission has emerged as a promising agent for tumor-associated vascular visualization. However, most of the developed lanthanide-based NIR-II-emissive probes are activated by 980 nm laser, leading to the concern of biological overheating effect. Herein, the high quality 808 nm laser activated NaYF4:Gd/Yb/Er/Nd/Ce@NaYF4:Nd core-shell nanoprobes with significantly improved NIR-II emission beyond 1500 nm and eliminated overheating effect were developed for imaging-guided resection surgery of tumor and vascular visualization. Methods: The core-shell nanoprobe with boosted NIR-II emission and eliminated heating effect was achieved with combination of Nd-sensitizing and Ce-doping strategies. The NIR-II optical imaging and toxicity assessment were demonstrated by in vivo and in vitro experiments. Results: The designed core-shell nanoprobe presented superior NIR-II emission beyond 1500 nm than the core only nanoparticle and NIR-II emission intensity was improved up to 11.0 times by further suppressing the upconversion (UC) pathway through doping Ce3+. More importantly, non-invasive tumor vascular imaging and NIR-II optical imaging-guided surgical resection of tumor were successfully achieved. Conclusion: It is expected that the Nd-sensitized lanthanide-based nanoprobe with significant improvement in NIR-II emission and eliminated overheating effect is a highly promising probe for NIR-II imaging, making it more competitive in non-invasive vascular imaging and imaging-guided tumor resection surgery.

Abstract
Theranostic systems combining fluorescence imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) and photothermal therapy (PTT) under safe laser fluence have great potential in preclinical research and clinical practice, but the development of such systems with sufficient effective NIR-II brightness and excellent photothermal properties is still challenging. Here we report a theranostic system based on semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (L1057 NPs) for NIR-II fluorescence imaging and PTT under a 980 nm laser irradiation, with low (25 mW/cm2) and high (720 mW/cm2) laser fluence, respectively. Taking into consideration multiple parameters including the extinction coefficient, the quantum yield, and the portion of emission in the NIR-II region, L1057 NPs have much higher effective NIR-II brightness than most reported organic NIR-II fluorophores. The high brightness, together with good stability and excellent biocompatibility, allows for real-time visualization of the whole body and brain vessels and the detection of cerebral ischemic stroke and tumors with high clarity. The excellent photothermal properties and high maximal permissible exposure limit at 980 nm allow L1057 NPs for PTT of tumors under safe laser fluence. This study demonstrates that L1057 NPs behave as an excellent theranostic system for NIR-II imaging and PTT under safe laser fluence and have great potential for a wide range of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Understanding structure-fluorescence correlation is very helpful for the design of fluorescent probes. In this paper, a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) type NIR-II fluorophore with benzobisthiadiazole as the acceptor and triphenyl amine as the donor, and its three derivatives bearing respectively amino, tert-butyloxycarbonyl amino and phenylazo groups in donor moieties, are synthesized. Their electronic structures and optical properties are investigated via theoretical and experimental studies. It is found that all the three types of substituents significantly influence its fluorescent properties and the phenylazo groups dramatically enhance its quantum yield (QY). To achieve biological applications and maintain high QY in aqueous environments, the phenylazo-containing fluorophore is encapsulated in polystyrene-co-poly(ethylene glycol) micelles. The obtained fluorescent micelles have a QY of ≈3.51% in 1000-1500 nm in aqueous medium that is among the highest of the organic NIR-II probes reported so far for biological imaging. The high QY enables the in vivo imaging of the micelle-administered mice to be conducted with high speed and quality. As an application example, ultrafast NIR-II imaging of intravenously injected mice is performed and used to determine their cardiac cycle and heart rate. The micelles also significantly accumulate in tumors after tail-vein injection and exhibit great application potentials in tumor detection.

Abstract
Various squaraine dyes have been developed for biological imaging. Nevertheless, squaraine dyes with emission in the second window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) have few reports largely due to the short of a simple and universal design strategy. In this contribution, molecular engineering strategy is explored to develop squaraine dyes with NIR-II emission. First, NIR-I squaraine dye SQ2 is constructed by the ethyl-grafted 1,8-naphtholactam as donor units and square acid as acceptor unit in a donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) structure. To red-shift the fluorescence emission into NIR-II window, malonitrile, as a forceful electron-withdrawing group, is introduced to strengthen square acid acceptor. As a result, the fluorescence spectrum of acceptor-engineered squaraine dye SQ1 exhibits a significant red-shift into NIR-II window. To translate NIR-II fluorophores SQ1 into effective theranostic agents, fibronectin-targeting SQ1 nanoprobe was constructed and showed excellent NIR-II imaging performance in angiography and tumor imaging, including lung metastatic foci in deep tissue. Furthermore, SQ1 nanoprobe can be used for photoacoustic imaging and photothermal ablation of tumors. This research demonstrates that the donor-acceptor engineering strategy is feasible and effective to develop NIR-II squaraine dyes.

Abstract
Small-molecule based multifunctional probes play significant roles in biomedical science and possess high clinical translational ability. However, the preparation of these promising probes without complicated synthetic procedures remains a challenging task. Herein, we rationally designed a high-performance DD-A-DD scaffold molecular dye (SYL) with an intrinsic multifunctional ability and then incorporated it into DSPE-mPEG5000 to facilely construct biocompatible NIR-II fluorescent and photoacoustic (PA) dual-modal theranostic nanoprobes (SYL NPs) (∼120 nm). In vivo studies confirmed that SYL NPs exhibited bright NIR-II fluorescence and PA signals in the tumor region with a promising signal to background ratio (S/B). Meanwhile, SYL NPs demonstrated significantly inhibited tumor growth under laser irradiation with no noticeable side effects. These promising results highlighted SYL NPs as a potential theranostic platform for cancer diagnosis (NIR-II region) and therapy.
