Abstract
Small-molecule sensors that are selective for particular sugars are rare. The synthesis of BODIPYs appended with two boronic acid units is reported, alongside cellular staining/labelling and turn-on fluorescence binding data for carbohydrates. The structural frameworks were designed using computational methods, leaning on the chelation characteristics of bis(boronic acids) and the photophysical properties of BODIPYs. Selective binding to glucose is demonstrated via emission and absorption methods, and the challenges of using NMR data for studying carbohydrate binding are discussed. Furthermore, crystal structures, cell permeability and imaging properties of the BODIPYs appended with two boronic acid units are described. This work presents boronic-acid-appended BODIPYs as a potential framework for tunable carbohydrate sensing and chemical biology staining.

Abstract
The substrates of oxidase are biologically essential substances that are closely associated with human physiological health. However, current biosensing methods suffer from tough recyclability and undesired denaturation of enzyme due to impurity interference. Herein, we have developed a visual and reusable biosensor for detecting substrate using glucose oxidase (GOx) as a model oxidase. GOx was immobilized onto gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) at -20 °C in one step without additional reagents. The resulting nano-enzyme generated coloimetric signals by coupling with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) using TMB as the substrate. Our results demonstrated that the immobilized GOx exhibited satisfactory sensitivity (0.68 μM) for glucose detection and higher inherent stability than free GOx under harsh conditions, enabling reliable detection of glucose in complex fluids (colored beverages and saliva). Furthermore, the nano-enzyme retained 80 % activity even after four cycles of catalytic oxidation. This strategy constructs a universal biosensor for substrates with nano-enzyme which rely only on intrinsic cysteine within the oxidase while avoiding functional handle modification.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic sensors with the capability of long-term stability and low cost are promising in glucose monitoring applications. Boronic acid (BA) derivatives offer a reversible and covalent binding mechanism for glucose recognition, which enables continuous glucose monitoring and responsive insulin release. To improve selectivity to glucose, a diboronic acid (DBA) structure design has been explored and has become a hot research topic for real-time glucose sensing in recent decades. This paper reviews the glucose recognition mechanism of boronic acids and discusses different glucose sensing strategies based on DBA-derivatives-based sensors reported in the past 10 years. The tunable pKa, electron-withdrawing properties, and modifiable group of phenylboronic acids were explored to develop various sensing strategies, including optical, electrochemical, and other methods. However, compared to the numerous monoboronic acid molecules and methods developed for glucose monitoring, the diversity of DBA molecules and applied sensing strategies remains limited. The challenges and opportunities are also highlighted for the future of glucose sensing strategies, which need to consider practicability, advanced medical equipment fitment, patient compliance, as well as better selectivity and tolerance to interferences.

Abstract
Three new diboronic acid-substituted bisquinolinium salts were synthesized, structurally described by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and studied in-depth as fluorescent receptors for six monosaccharides and two open-chain polyols in water at physiological pH. The dicationic pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide-based receptors contain two N-quinolinium rings as the fluorescent units covalently linked to three different isomers of phenylboronic acid (ortho, 2; meta, 3; and para, 4) as chelating binding sites for polyols. Additions of glucose/fructose in the micromolar concentration range to receptors 2 and 3 induce significant fluorescence changes, but in the presence of arabinose, galactose, mannose, and xylose, only modest optical changes are observed. This optical change is attributed to a static photoinduced electron transfer mechanism. The meta-diboronic receptor 3 exhibited a high affinity/selectivity toward glucose (K = 3800 M-1) over other monosaccharides including common interfering species such as fructose and mannitol. Based on multiple spectroscopic tools, electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry, crystal structures, and density functional theory calculations, the binding mode between 3 and glucose is proposed as a 1:1 complex with the glucofuranose form involving a cooperative chelating diboronate binding. These results demonstrate the usefulness of a new set of cationic fluorescent diboronic acid receptors with a strong ability for optical recognition of glucose in the sub-millimolar concentration range.

Abstract
Fluorescence recognition of d-glucose in water with excellent sensitivity, selectivity, and chiral selectivity is desired because d-glucose is an essential component in biological and pathological processes. We report an innovative approach that exploits the 1:2 stoichiometric inclusion complexes of γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CyD) with two molecules of fluorescent monoboronic acid-based receptors, which form a pseudo-diboronic acid moiety as the recognition site for d-glucose in water. Two monoboronic acids (1F and 2N) were easily synthesized without heating or column purification. The 1:2 stoichiometric inclusion complexes (1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD) were prepared in a mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide/water (2/98 in v/v) by mixing γ-CyD and the corresponding monoboronic acids. Both 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD exhibited strong turn-on response to d-glucose with excellent selectivity over nine other saccharides in the water-rich solvent at pH 7.4 owing to the ditopic recognition of d-glucose by the pseudo-diboronic acid moieties. The limits of detection of 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD for d-glucose were 1.1 and 1.8 μM, respectively, indicating the remarkable sensitivity for the detection of d-glucose at μM levels. 1F/γ-CyD and 2N/γ-CyD also demonstrated chiral-selective recognition of d-glucose, which is apparent from the 2.0- and 6.3-fold enhancement of fluorescence by the addition of d-glucose relative to l-glucose addition, owing to the chiral pseudo-diboronic acid moieties produced by the chiral γ-CyD cavity. To the best of our knowledge, 2N/γ-CyD has the highest d/l selectivity among hitherto reported fluorescent diboronic acid-based receptors.

Abstract
Dynamic-covalent motifs are increasingly used for hydrogel crosslinking, leveraging equilibrium-governed reversible bonds to prepare viscoelastic materials with dynamic properties and self-healing character. The bonding between aryl boronates and diols is one dynamic-covalent chemistry of interest. The extent of network crosslinking using this motif may be subject to competition from ambient diols such as glucose; this approach has long been explored for glucose-directed release of insulin to control diabetes. However, the majority of such work has used phenylboronic acids (PBAs) that suffer from low-affinity glucose binding, limiting material responsiveness. Moreover, many PBA chemistries also bind with higher affinity to certain non-glucose analytes like fructose and lactate than they do to glucose, limiting their specificity of sensing and therapeutic deployment. Here, dynamic-covalent hydrogels are prepared that, for the first time, use a new diboronate motif with enhanced glucose binding-and importantly improved glucose specificity-leveraging the ability of rigid diboronates to simultaneously bind two sites on a single glucose molecule. Compared to long-used PBA-based approaches, diboronate hydrogels offer more glucose-responsive insulin release that is minimally impacted by non-glucose analytes. Improved responsiveness translates to more rapid blood glucose correction in a rodent diabetes model. Accordingly, this new dynamic-covalent crosslinking chemistry is useful in realizing more sensitive and specific glucose-responsive materials.

Abstract
Natural extracellular matrix is formed by the assembly of small molecules and macromolecules into a hydrogel-like network that can mechanically support cells and involve in cellular processes. Here, we developed a fluorescent supramolecular hydrogel based on a conjugated oligomer OFBTCO2Na, which facilitated noncovalent assembly through hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds in a molecular scale. The generated dense three-dimensional network endows the supramolecular hydrogel with stretchability and stability. Furthermore, fluorescent OFBTCO2Na in hydrogel acted as a donor, which can excite the acceptor dyes on cells encapsulated in hydrogel via the Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism. Investigating the fluorescence signal responsiveness of hydrogel to dynamic mechanical stretching well reflected that enhanced stretching dictated the extent of connection between the cell and matrix, which enables effective FRET at a molecular level and allow spatiotemporally monitoring cell-matrix interactions at the three-dimensional network. Importantly, cells can sense stretch forces by their connection with a hydrogel matrix. The dynamic cell-matrix interaction can be conveniently employed to formulate cell morphology. Therefore, the fluorescent supramolecular hydrogel offers a suitable culture platform not only to investigate cell interactions on interfaces but also to regulate cell behavior at interfaces.

Acetylated Trifluoromethyl Diboronic Acid Anthracene with a Large Stokes Shift and Long Excitation Wavelength as a Glucose-Selective Probe. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Continuous control of blood glucose levels is important for the effective treatment of diabetes. The short-term use of enzymatic continuous monitoring systems involves expensive maintenance and is inconvenient, which limits their widespread use by diabetes patients. The fluorescent diboronic anthracene-embedded system has demonstrated in vivo continuous glucose monitoring for 12 times longer than enzymatic systems by protecting the dye from reactive oxygen species. However, its small Stokes shift and low excitation and emission wavelength should be heavily considered for easy fabrication. We successfully synthesized a derivative of bis-phenyl boronate with a large Stokes shift and long excitation wavelength by adding an acetyl moiety to the anthracene ring. This resulted in a ~90-nm Stokes shift and 15-nm and 80-nm redshifts of the excitation and emission wavelengths, respectively. The fluorescence of the synthesized probe increased proportionally with the glucose concentration because the formation of the boronic acid-glucose complex prevented photoinduced electron transfer. The association constant and quantum yield for acetyl-substituted diboronic anthracene with glucose was 20% and 13% higher than that of the analog, respectively. While keeping resistance to the oxidation by reactive oxygen species, the improved optical properties and glucose-detecting performances of the newly synthesized dye will allow better pairing of the source and detecting unit for in vivo continuous glucose monitoring, leading to easy fabrication and then contributing more to utilization by diabetes patients.

Abstract
Dual detection systems are of interest for rapid, accurate data collection in sensing systems and in vitro testing. We introduce an IrIII complex with a boronic acid receptor site attached to the 2-phenylpyridine ligand as an ideal probe with photo- and electrochemical signals that is sensitive to monosaccharide binding in aqueous solution. The complex displays orange luminescence at 618 nm, which is reduced by 70 and 40 % upon binding of fructose and glucose, respectively. The electro-chemiluminescent signal of the complex also shows a direct response to monosaccharide binding. The IrIII complex shows the same response upon incorporation into hydrogel matrices as in solution, thus demonstrating the potential of its integration into a device, as a nontoxic, simple-to-use tool to observe sugar binding over physiologically relevant pH ranges and saccharide concentrations. Moreover, the complex's luminescence is responsive to monosaccharide presence in cancer cells.

Abstract
Diabetic mellitus (DM) is a common metabolic disorder prevailing throughout the world. It may affect a child to an older person depending upon the physiology and the factors influencing the internal metabolic system of the body. Several treatments are available in the market ranges from synthetic drugs, insulin therapy, herbal drugs, and transdermal patches. Interestingly, the development of technologies and digital health have proving very helpful in improving the lifestyle of diabetic patients. All treatment approaches have their own advantages and disadvantages in the form of effectiveness and side effects. Medicinal plants have a long history of traditional application in the treatment of diabetes and even the use of plants are growing day-by-day due to the significant results against diseases and fewer side effects as compared to other treatment therapies. The intention behind writing this review is to gather all information and discussed them exhaustively in an article. The novel Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected my lives including diabetic patients. The antidiabetic treatment strategies during this period has also discussed. In this article, we highlighted the molecular mechanism and herbal phytoconstituents that are responsible for lowering blood glucose level. The factors responsible for the progression of metabolic disorders can be controlled with the use of phytoconstituents present in herbal plants to maintain β-cells performance and restore blood glucose level. It can be concluded that medicinal plants are effective and affordable with lesser side effects for treating DM.

Abstract
Boronic acids can reversibly bind diols, a molecular feature that is ubiquitous within saccharides, leading to their use in the design and implementation of sensors for numerous saccharide species. There is a growing understanding of the importance of saccharides in many biological processes and systems; while saccharide or carbohydrate sensing in medicine is most often associated with detection of glucose in diabetes patients, saccharides have proven to be relevant in a range of disease states. Herein the relevance of carbohydrate sensing for biomedical applications is explored, and this review seeks to outline how the complexity of saccharides presents a challenge for the development of selective sensors and describes efforts that have been made to understand the underpinning fluorescence and binding mechanisms of these systems, before outlining examples of how researchers have used this knowledge to develop ever more selective receptors.

Abstract
Reliable and accurate glucose detection in biological samples is of great importance in clinical diagnosis and medical research. Chemical probes are advantageous in simple operation and flexible design, especially for the development of fluorescent probes. Anthracene-based diboronic acid (P-DBA) has shown potential in glucose probing because of its high sensitivity. However, poor solubility limits its applications in aqueous media. In this work, we systemically modify P-DBA by introducing fluoro (F-), chloro (Cl-), methoxyl (MeO-), or cyano (CN-) substituents. Among these probes, the cyano-substituted probe (CN-DBA) displays the highest glucose-binding constant (6489.5 M-1, 33% MeOH). More importantly, it shows good water solubility in the aqueous solution (0.5% MeOH), with ultrasensitive recognition with glucose (LOD = 1.51 μM) and robust sensing from pH 6.0 to 9.0. Based on these features, the CN-DBA is finally applied to detect glucose in cell lysates and plasma, with satisfactory recovery and precision. These results demonstrate that CN-DBA could serve as an accurate, sensitive fluorescent probe for glucose assays in biological samples.

Abstract
To monitor d-glucose (Glu) in complex aqueous media with a high specificity, a conceptually new "selective capture and controllable detection" nanoreactor was explored. We designed and synthesized poly maleic anhydride-styrene-N-isopropylacrylamide-(4-aminophenyl) boronic acid [P(MAn-St-NIPAm-PBA)] to fabricate the nanoreactor. On the surface of the self-assembled, micelle-based nanoreactor, the stereo precise placement PBA provided a recognition unit in the block copolymer structure to boost the selective capture of Glu over other saccharides. P(MAn-St-NIPAm) served as the thermal sensitive moiety of the nanoreactor, which embedded with glucose oxidase and myoglobin-based catalyst in order to realize the controllable enzymolysis of Glu through temperature alteration. Once the nanoreactor was mixed with Glu, an obvious change in the UV-visible intensity of quinine produced in the multienzymolysis was observed. Glu in the rat microdialysates of brain ischemia was successfully monitored by the nanoreactor method, demonstrating the feasibility of constructing high-specificity nanoreactors for cerebral system applications.

Abstract
Monosaccharides play important roles in plant growth and development, and their biofunctions are closely related to their endogenous contents. Therefore, the determination of monosaccharides is beneficial for the further study of monosaccharide biofunction. In this work, we developed a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analytical method assisted by a post-column derivatization technique (LC-PCD-MS) for the fast and automatic determination of 16 monosaccharides in samples. Post-column chemical derivatization of monosaccharides was performed by a reaction of monosaccharides with 4-benzylaminobenzeneboronic acid (4-PAMBA) through boronate ester formation in a three-way connector. 4-PAMBA worked as a derivatization reagent to improve the selectivity and sensitivity of monosaccharide detection by MS. The developed LC-PCD-MS method integrates LC separation, chemical derivatization, and MS detection in one run, thus greatly reducing the analysis time for each sample. The limits of detection and limits of quantification for 16 monosaccharides were in the range of 0.002-0.1 and 0.007-0.5 ng/mL, respectively. Good linearity was obtained from the linear regression, with a determination coefficient (R2) ranging from 0.9928 to 1.0000. The relative recoveries were in the range of 80.7-117.8%, with the intra- and interday relative standard deviations less than 19.7 and 16.5%, respectively, indicating good accuracy and acceptable reproducibility of the method. Finally, the method was successfully applied to investigate the spatial and temporal distribution of 16 monosaccharides in the developing flower and germinating seed of Arabidopsis thaliana.
