Abstract
The continuous preparation scheme EPO-Poly-indol-nido-carborane (E-P-INDOLCAB), L100-55-Poly-indol-nido-carborane (L-P-INDOLCAB), RS-Poly-indol-nido-carborane (S-P-INDOLCAB), and RL-Poly-indol-nido-carborane (R-P-INDOLCAB) were used to prepare the four types of acrylic resin-coated nido-carborane indole fluorescent polymers. After testing their spectral properties and the fluorescence stability curve trend at various acidic pH values (3.4 and 5.5, respectively), L-P-INDOLCAB and S-P-INDOLCAB were determined to be the best polymers. The stable states of the two polymers and the dispersion of the nanoparticles on the system's surface during Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) test are shown by the zeta potentials of -23 and -42 mV. The dispersion of nanoparticles on the system's surface and the stable condition of the two polymers were examined using zeta potential and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can also confirm these findings, showing that the acrylic resin securely encases the interior to form an eyeball. Both polymers' biocompatibility with HELA cells was enhanced in cell imaging, closely enclosing the target cells. The two complexes displayed strong inhibitory effects on PC-3 and HeLa cells when the concentration was 20 ug/mL, as validated by subsequent cell proliferation toxicity studies.

Abstract
Four distinct fluorescence complexes, the fluorescent complex-1 (FC-1), fluorescent complex-2 (FC-2), fluorescent complex third (FC-3) and fluorescent complex fourth (FC-4), were created using isorhamnetin and Coomassie brilliant blue G250 as raw materials. The issue of isorhamnetin's low solubility has been resolved, and isorhamnetin-coomassie brilliant blue G250 now has better biocompatibility. Four different forms of fluorescence compounds' ultraviolet absorption spectra were identified. It was discovered that FC-2, FC-3, and FC-4, respectively, had double peaks at 483-620 nm. FC-4 had the highest ultraviolet absorption intensity, whereas FC-1 exhibited the most consistent and longest wavelength of ultraviolet absorption. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that the acrylic resin evenly disseminated the Coomassie brilliant blue G250-isorhamnetin complex in an amorphous flocculent form. Human prostate cancer cells (PC3) and human cervical cancer cells (HeLa) were investigated in the (Cell Counting Kit-8) CCK8 experiment under 10 different concentration circumstances, and the proliferation impact was 64.30% and 68.06%, respectively. Shown the complex's strong anti-tumor properties and minimal cytotoxicity. Through in vitro imaging of tumor cells, it was found that FC-1's fluorescent complex has high selectivity and can accurately infiltrate tumor cells, proving that it is biocompatible. The design not only addresses the issue of isorhamnein-Coomassie Bright Blue G250's bioavailability, but it also has an effective visual fluorescence targeting effect.

Abstract
Nondestructive diagnosis of tumor has always been the goal of scientists. Fluorescent dyes have become the rising star in the field of cancer diagnosis because of their excellent characteristics. Therefore, in this work, fluorescence probes d-Y-B and dO-Y-B with anti-tumor activity were constructed by introducing pyrimidine groups with high anti-tumor activity using fluorescence dye BODIPY as parent nucleus. The modified BODIPY group in the structure had the advantage of fluorescent dye, ensuring the strong fluorescence and photosensitivity of the target compound. That ethylenediamine acts as a bridge with two -NH- groups to increase molecular hydrogen bonding, and can bind firmly to multiple proteins. Co-localization of the target compounds d-Y-B and dO-Y-B with the hoechst dye for labeling living cells showed that these compounds had high biocompatibility and photostability for localization to HeLa cells. In vivo imaging in mice can realize specific localization and real-time visualization of tumor cells. The results of cytotoxicity experiments in vitro and computer software simulating molecular docking confirmed the potential of the target compounds as an anticancer agents. The bifunctional probe realized visualization of cancer cells in mice, and can kill cancer cells by anti-proliferation, which may provide a direction for future anticancer drug development.

Abstract
In this paper, a series of novel phenylenediamine-fluoroboron pyrrole fluorescent derivatives were prepared which have distinct responsiveness under different hydrogen ion concentration (pH) conditions. It is noticed that the products showed excellent fluorescence properties in different solvents, especially in tetrahydrofuran and dichloromethane, with the most prominent fluorescence intensity, while the fluorescence in methanol, acetonitrile, and dimethyl sulfoxide was weaker. Responsiveness under different hydrogen ion concentration conditions in aqueous solutions were also observed, where the fluorescence intensity is quenching when the pH is 4.0. With regard to cells imaging investigation, the products showed the prominent fluorescence in HeLa cells. Further acidic cell imaging results showed that under acidic conditions made of formic acid or acetic acid, the intracellular fluorescence of the compounds was clustered around the cells and intensive enough different from without acidity control group. Especially, the compounds have unique fluorescence in acidic environment and has great potential and research value as acidic probes.

Abstract
BODIPY-Pyrimidine (BP) is a highly selective, highly active, and highly biocompatible fluorescent drug, which is characterized by its own activity combined with a fluorophore. The combination of pyrimidines with good biological activity and fluorophores to obtain new compounds with both anti-tumor activity and fluorescent targeting probe functions is the focus of this research. In terms of biological activity, in vitro cytotoxicity of the compounds on four human cancer cells (HepG2, HeLa, A-459, and HCT-116) and the human normal cell line L-02 was studied. BP-4 has good antiproliferative activity, and its IC50 values are 19.12 ± 2.29, 13.47 ± 3.80, 18.59 ± 7.42, 14.57 ± 2.44 and 92.48 ± 6.03 μM, respectively. Good biocompatibility with tumor cells can be observed in cell imaging. The anti-tumor mechanism of the compound was further studied by flow cytometry. After BP-2, BP-3 and BP-4 treated HeLa cells, the percentage of apoptotic cells was 19.07%, 22.09% and 27.3%, respectively. The cell cycle study found that, compared with the positive control 5-FU (48.05%), the compounds BP-2, BP-3 and BP-4 all increased the proportion of HeLa cells in the G1 phase, reaching 57.65%, 55.46% and 53.58%, respectively. In vivo bioimaging results show that all three compounds can be targeted and accurately expressed in tumor tissues. In addition, molecular docking analyzes the possible interaction between the compound and the active site of thymidylate synthase.
