Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is implicated in numerous physiological and pathological processes in living organisms. Abnormal levels of H2S can result in various physiological disorders, highlighting the crucial need for effective identification and detection of H2S at the organellar level. Although numerous H2S fluorescent probes targeting organelles have been reported, a comprehensive review of these probes is required. This review focuses on the strategic selection of organelle-targeting groups and recognition sites for H2S fluorescent probes. This review examines H2S fluorescent probes that can specifically target lysosomes, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lipid droplets. These fluorescent probes have been meticulously classified and summarized based on their distinct targets, emphasizing their chemical structure, reaction mechanisms, and biological applications. We carefully designed fluorescent probes to efficiently enhance their ability to recognize target substances and exhibit significant fluorescence variations. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges inherent in the development of fluorescent probes and outline potential future directions for this exciting field.

Abstract
We here disclose a new type of two-photon-excited fluorescent triarylborane, tetrabranched triphenylborane 1, which contains four electron-donating [4-(N,N-diphenylamino)phenyl]ethynyl branches at 2,6-positions of two phenyl rings. The cross section of 1 reaches 275 GM (1 GM = 10-50 cm4 s photon-1) in tetrahydrofuran. Compared with dibranched triphenylborane 2, the 2-fold increase in the number of electron-donating branches induces a 3.6-fold increase in the two-photon absorption cross section, suggesting the great cooperative effect of branching in the enhancement of two-photon absorption.

Natural harmaline acts as novel fluorescent probe for hypochlorous acid and promising therapeutic candidate for rheumatoid arthritis. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY.

Abstract
Endogenous hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is one of the most important reactive oxygen species (ROS) and acts as a distinct biomarker that is involved in various inflammatory responses including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Therefore, it's crucial to develop an efficient method for the tracking and analysis of HOCl levels in vivo. Natural products continue to be compounds of interest, because they not only offer diverse and specific molecular scaffolds but also provide invaluable sources for new drug discovery. Herein, we firstly demonstrated harmaline (HML), a natural alkaloid mainly found in Peganum harmala L, could be acted as a novel fluorescent probe for HOCl with exceptional precision and responsiveness. Remarkably, this probe not only specifically tracked HOCl levels in cells and inflammatory RA mouse models, but also exhibited effective anti-inflammatory effects on RAW264.7 cells and anti-proliferative effects on fibroblast-like synoviocytes. Furthermore, HML has the potential to alleviate LPS-induced inflammation by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway. This study represents the first example of a natural product that can simultaneously act as a fluorescent probe for specific ROS and a promising therapeutic candidate for a specific disease, which will undoubtedly extend the application of fluorophore-rich natural products.

Dynamic insights into mitochondrial function: Monitoring viscosity and SO 2 levels in living cells. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2024; 258:112986. [PMID: 39084140 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2024.112986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2024] [Revised: 06/28/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
Mitochondria, central organelles pivotal for eukaryotic cell function, extend their influence beyond ATP production, encompassing roles in apoptosis, calcium signaling, and biosynthesis. Recent studies spotlight two emerging determinants of mitochondrial functionality: intramitochondrial viscosity and sulfur dioxide (SO2) levels. While optimal mitochondrial viscosity governs molecular diffusion and vital processes like oxidative phosphorylation, aberrations are linked with neurodegenerative conditions, diabetes, and cancer. Similarly, SO2, a gaseous signaling molecule, modulates energy pathways and oxidative stress responses; however, imbalances lead to cytotoxic sulfite and bisulfite accumulation, triggering disorders such as cancer and cardiovascular anomalies. Our research focused on development of a dual-channel fluorescent probe, applying electron-withdrawing acceptors within a coumarin dye matrix, facilitating monitoring of mitochondrial viscosity and SO2 in live cells. This probe distinguishes fluorescence peaks at 650 nm and 558 nm, allowing ratiometric quantification of SO2 without interference from other sulfur species. Moreover, it enables near-infrared viscosity determination, particularly within mitochondria. The investigation employed theoretical calculations utilizing Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods to ascertain molecular geometries and calculate rotational energies. Notably, the indolium segment of the probe exhibited the lowest rotational energy, quantified at 7.38 kcals/mol. The probe featured heightened mitochondrial viscosity dynamics when contained within HeLa cells subjected to agents like nystatin, monensin, and bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Overall, our innovative methodology elucidates intricate mitochondrial factors, presenting transformative insights into cellular energetics, redox homeostasis, and therapeutic avenues for mitochondrial-related disorders.

Abstract
HSA (human serum albumin), a most abundant protein in blood serum, plays a key role in maintaining human health. Abnormal HSA level is correlated with many diseases, and thus has been used as an essential biomarker for therapeutic monitoring and biomedical diagnosis. Development of small-molecule fluorescent probes allowing the selective and sensitive recognition of HSA in in vitro and in vivo is of fundamental importance in basic biological research as well as medical diagnosis. Herein, we reported a series of new synthesized fluorescent dyes containing D-π-A constitution, which exhibited different optical properties in solution and solid state. Among them, dye M-H-SO3 with a hydrophilic sulfonate group at electron-acceptor part displayed selectivity for discrimination of HSA from BSA and other enzymes. Upon binding of dye M-H-SO3 with HSA, a significant fluorescence enhancement with a turn-on ratio about 96-fold was triggered. The detection limit was estimated to be ∼ 40 nM. Studies on the interaction mechanism revealed that dye M-H-SO3 could bind to site III of HSA with a 1:1 binding stoichiometry. Furthermore, dye M-H-SO3 has been applied to determine HSA in real urine samples with good recoveries, which provided a useful method for HSA analysis in biological fluids.

Abstract
Silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) with a chemically modified surface typically have a complicated chemical composition, which can significantly differ from their intended design. In this study, we systematically studied the effects of two surface modification methods on active-targeting of intracellular organelles of SiNPs: (1) the widely used step-by-step approach, which involves modifying SiNPs in two steps, i.e., the outer surface of SiNPs was firstly modified with amino groups and then these amino groups were linked with targeting groups, and (2) a newly developed one-step approach in which the ligand-silane complex is initially synthesized, followed by chemically immobilizing the complex on the surface of SiNPs. In the one-step approach, the molar ratio of reactants was precisely tuned so that there are no reactive groups left on the outer surface of SiNPs. Two essential organelles, mitochondria and the nucleus, were selected to compare the targeting performances of SiNPs synthesized via these two approaches. By characterizing physicochemical properties, including structural properties, the number of amino groups, surface charge, polydispersity, and cell colocalization, we demonstrated that SiNPs synthesized via the one-step approach with no residual linkage groups on their surface showed significantly improved mitochondria- and nucleus-targeting performances. This precise control of surface properties allows for optimized biological behavior and active-targeting efficiency of SiNPs. We anticipate that such simple and efficient synthetic strategies will enable the synthesis of effective SiNPs for active-targeting organelles in various biological applications.

Abstract
Lysosomes are essential cellular organelles, serving vital functions in cellular metabolism and degradation. The design of specifically targeting lysosomes probes with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics using two-photon excitation techniques is significance and challenging work. Here we designed and synthesized two tetraphenylethylene (TPE)-based AIE fluorescence probes, naming TPE-Ma and TPE-Py, with TPE as the matrix and morpholine (Ma) or pyrrolidone (Py) as the targeting group. These probes exhibit a significant Stokes shift, low cytotoxicity, two-photo fluorescence imaging and lysosome-specific targeting capability ensuring their suitability for fluorescence imaging applications. To enhance the water solubility and cellular accumulation of TPE-Ma and TPE-Py in tumor cells, we employed a biocompatible polymer 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000] (DSPE-mPEG2000) as a nanocarrier. By encapsulating TPE-Ma and TPE-Py within DSPE-mPEG2000, we successfully developed two AIE fluorescent nanoprobes known as DSPE@ TPE-Ma and DSPE@ TPE-Py. The results demonstrated that fluorescent nanoprobes DSPE@ TPE-Ma and DSPE@ TPE-Py possess excellent cell permeability, biocompatibility, superior photostability and specific targeting towards lysosomes in MCF-7 cells. Our findings highlight the potential of these fluorescent nanoprobes as effective tools for two-photon fluorescence imaging and targeted detection of lysosomes in cancer cells.

Abstract
Exploring the nature of aggregation-regulated thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) and proposing effective design strategies for two-photon excited TADF materials for time-resolved biological imaging and monitoring are urgent and encouraging. In this work, it is found that the aggregation effect not only plays an important role in decreasing the internal conversion decay rate but also strongly influences the singlet-triplet excited-state energy difference as well as the intersystem crossing rate. It is proposed that the transformation from prompt fluorescence materials to long lifetime TADF or phosphorescence materials can be accomplished by regulating the position of substituent groups, which provides an effective method to design and develop long afterglow materials. Then, a high-performance TADF compound with a large two-photon absorption cross section in the biological window (112 GM/775 nm), high TADF efficiency (nearly 100%), and long fluorescence lifetime (50.75 μs) has been designed, which demonstrates the potential application in time-resolved two-photon excited fluorescence imaging and biological detection.

Abstract
As a significant kind of reactive oxygen species (ROS), peroxynitrite (ONOO-) plays an indispensable role in many physiological and pathological processes. This study aimed to synthesize a novel dihydro-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-c]quinazoline-based probe 1 for detecting ONOO-. In 99.5% H2O solution, probe 1 displayed a distinct aggregation-induced ratiometric emission (AIRE), and would selectively respond toward ONOO-via a ratiometric fluorescent signal, along with a short response time (<30 s) and ultra-sensitivity (LOD = 17.6 nM). Moreover, the probe was applied for monitoring the concentration fluctuations of ONOO- in HeLa cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
Abnormal changes occurring in the mitochondrial microenvironment are important markers indicating mitochondrial and cell dysfunction. Herein, we designed and synthesized a multifunctional fluorescent probe DPB that responds to polarity, viscosity, and peroxynitrite (ONOO-). DPB is composed of an electron donor (diethylamine group) and electron acceptor (coumarin, pyridine cations, and phenylboronic acid esters), in which the pyridine group with a positive charge is responsible for targeting to mitochondria. D-π-A structure with strong intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) properties give rise to respond to polarity and viscosity. The introduction of cyanogroup and phenylboronic acid esters increases the electrophilicity of the probe, which is prone to oxidation triggered by ONOO-. The integrated architecture satisfies the multiple response requirements. As the polarity increases, the fluorescence intensity of probe DPB at 470 nm is quenched by 97%. At 658 nm, the fluorescence intensity of DPB increases with viscosity and decreases with the concentration of ONOO-. Furthermore, the probe is not only successfully used to monitor mitochondrial polarity, viscosity, and endogenous/exogenous ONOO- level fluctuations but also to distinguish cancer cells from normal cells by multiple parameters. Therefore, as-prepared probe provides a reliable tool for better understanding of the mitochondrial microenvironment and also a potential approach for the diagnosis of disease.

Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is a kind of coenzyme and widely works as a biomarker in cancer cells. It plays a crucial role in many cellular metabolic processes, especially NADH in mitochondria is indispensable for the mitochondrial respiration chain that produces ATP. Herein, we designed a fluorescent probe Mito-FCC based on an ethylene-bridging dual-salt structure, in which benzo[e]indolium fluorophore was used as the mitochondria-targeting group and 1-methylquinolinium moiety as the NADH recognition unit. Mito-FCC exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for NADH with a rapid "turn-on" fluorescence signal. The dual-salt structure endowed the probe with a reliable mitochondria-targeted ability even after the recognition unit was reduced by NADH. With the help of the probe, the fluctuations of endogenous NADH induced by glucose or pyruvate were imaged. Besides, Mito-FCC had a capability to make a distinction between cancer cells and normal cells due that the content of NADH in cancer cells was distinctly higher than that in normal ones. Notably, the visualization of tumor in vivo through monitoring NADH using Mito-FCC was realized successfully. These experimental results showed that Mito-FCC hold a great perspective in study of mitochondrial function and potential diagnosis of cancer diseases.

Abstract
Emerging as a potent anticancer treatment, subcellular targeted cancer therapy has drawn increasing attention, bringing great opportunities for clinical application. Here, two targeting strategies for four main subcellular organelles (mitochondria, lysosome, endoplasmic reticulum, and nucleus), including molecule- and nanomaterial (inorganic nanoparticles, micelles, organic polymers, and others)-based targeted delivery or therapeutic strategies, are summarized. Phototherapy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and "all-in-one" combination therapy are among the strategies covered in detail. Such materials are constructed based on the specific properties and relevant mechanisms of organelles, enabling the elimination of tumors by inducing dysfunction in the corresponding organelles or destroying specific structures. The challenges faced by organelle-targeting cancer therapies are also summarized. Looking forward, a paradigm for organelle-targeting therapy with enhanced therapeutic efficacy compared to current clinical approaches is envisioned.

Abstract
Mitochondria are considered to be a promising target in cancer diagnosis and therapeutics. Recently, sydnone and sydnonimine, as mesoionic bioorthogonal reagents, have been used in cell labeling and drug delivery. Here we investigated the mitochondrial targeting ability of sydnones and sydnonimines for the first time. Experimental results show that sydnone and sydnonimine themselves have high mitochondrial distribution. However, the introduction of a phenyl group into the C4 position of sydnone dramatically decreases the mitochondrial affinity. In addition, we took advantage of mitochondrial targeting ability and click-and-release reaction of sydnonimine to evaluate anticancer activities of in-mitochondria delivery of celecoxib against HeLa and HepG2 cells, indicating that celecoxib-induced cancer cell death may not involve mitochondria-related pathway.

Abstract
Pure organic two-photon excited room temperature phosphorescent (RTP) materials have attracted great attention for time-resolved imaging due to their long emission lifetime and high resolution. The materials with an aromatic carbonyl group exhibit aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and RTP characteristics simultaneously. Here, we deeply explored the nature of aggregation-induced phosphorescence (AIP), especially the relationship between molecular configuration and optical properties. It was found that aggregation effect can suppress geometrical vibrations and regulate energy difference between S1 and T1. The aromatic carbonyl group plays significant roles in changing electronic configuration, resulting in large Stokes shift and spin-orbit coupling. It also leads to small transition dipole moment, decreasing two-photon absorption cross section and radiative decay rate. To improve two-photon absorption properties, we further designed a π-conjugated compound with large two-photon absorption cross section in the biological window (36.40 GM/656 nm) and AIP characteristics, which is a potential material in the application of time-resolved two-photon excited imaging.

Abstract
Tyrosinase is crucial to regulate the metabolism of phenol derivatives, playing an important role in the biosynthesis of melanin pigments, whereas an abnormal level of tyrosinase would lead to severe diseases. It is rather necessary to develop a sensitive and selective imaging tool to assess the level of tyrosinase in vivo. We thoroughly researched the luminous mechanism of the existing TPTYR probe and provided design strategies to improve its two-photon excited fluorescence properties. The designed probes benza2-TPTYR and product benza2-TPTYR-coumarin have large two-photon absorption cross sections at the NIR spectral region (41 GM/706 nm, 71 GM/852 nm), while benza2-TPTYR-coumarin possesses easily distinguishable spectrum in the visible region and a high fluorescence efficiency (ΦF = 0.27). What is more, novel two-photon excited multimodal imaging based on the pure organic small molecule benza1-TPTYR-coumarin (61 GM/936 nm) is proposed first, simultaneously possessing strong instantaneous fluorescent (563.79 nm) and persistent room-temperature phosphorescent emissions (767.68 nm, 0.54 ms).

Abstract
H2O2 and polarity are quite important in many physiological and pathological processes, and their relationship is complicated and obscure for researchers. Thus, it is vital and challenging to achieve simultaneous detection of H2O2 and polarity in vivo. Herein, the first naphthalimide-triphenylamine-based dual-site fluorescent probe NATPA is developed for simultaneously imaging intracellular H2O2 and polarity fluctuations. It exhibits excellent sensitivity (LOD = 44 nM), selectivity, and fast response (15 min) to H2O2 and a superior capacity for detecting polarity upon the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect. Besides, the probe displays low cytotoxicity and lipid droplet targeting and is further applied in imaging H2O2 and polarity fluctuations in HepG2 and L-02 cells, so that NATPA is qualified to distinguish cancer cells from normal cells. This research contributes a new design principle for the construction of dual-site fluorescent probes for simultaneously detecting active molecules and polarity.

Abstract
The inter-organelle interactions, including the cytomembrane, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondrion, lysosome, dictyosome, and nucleus, play the important roles in maintaining the normal function and homeostasis of cells. Organelle dysfunction can lead to a range of diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and cancer), and provide a new perspective for drug discovery. With the development of imaging techniques and functional fluorescent probes, a variety of algorithms and strategies have been developed for the ever-improving estimation of subcellular structures, organelle interaction, and organelle-related drug discovery with accounting for the dynamic structures of organelles, such as the nanoscopy technology and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Accordingly, this work summarizes a series of state-of-the-art examples of the recent progress in this rapidly changing field and uncovering the drug screening based on the structures and interactions of organelles. Finally, we propose the future outlook for exciting applications of organelle-related drug discovery, with the cooperation of nanoscopy and MD simulations.

Abstract
The number of in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo studies on porous silicon (PSi) nanoparticles for biomedical applications has increased extensively over the last decade. The focus of the reports has been on the carrier properties of PSi concerning the therapeutic aspect due to several beneficial nanovector characteristics including high payload capacity, biocompatibility, and versatile surface chemistry. Recently, increasing attention has been paid to the diagnostic aspects of PSi, which is typically attributed to the biotraceability of the nanovector. Also, PSi has been studied as a contrast agent. When both these aspects, therapy and diagnosis, are integrated into one nanovector, we can discuss a real nanotheranostics approach. Herein, we review the recent progress developing PSi for various imaging modalities, specifically focusing on optical imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, and nuclear medicine imaging. Furthermore, we summarized the knowledge gaps that must be covered before applying PSi in clinical imaging, highlighting future research trends.

Abstract
Hypochlorite plays a significant role in physiological processes, particularly regulation of lysosomal functions, and is involved in various diseases. Thus, it is crucial to develop highly sensitive and selective molecule tools to detect HClO in lysosomes. Herein, a novel 2H-benzo[h]chromene-pyridine derivative (1) was synthesized through condensation reaction, which exhibited a notable deep-red emission at 640 nm in pure water. This deep-red emission was specifically quenched by adding ClO-. The response of probe 1 toward ClO- was rapid (within 10 s), sensitive (detection limit of 0.012 μM), and effective over a wide range of pH (1.0-12.0). Due to the existence of morpholine as the lysosome-targeting unit, the probe was successfully utilized to monitor lysosomal ClO-. Moreover, the probe 1 was also applied to detecting ClO- in zebrafish.

Abstract
Mitochondria metabolism is an emergent target for the development of novel anticancer agents. It is amply recognized that strategies that allow for modulation of mitochondrial function in specific cell populations need to be developed for the therapeutic potential of mitochondria-targeting agents to become a reality in the clinic. In this work, we report dipolar and quadrupolar quinolizinium and benzimidazolium cations that show mitochondria targeting ability and localized light-induced mitochondria damage in live animal cells. Some of the dyes induce a very efficient disruption of mitochondrial potential and subsequent cell death under two-photon excitation in the Near-infrared (NIR) opening up possible applications of azonia/azolium aromatic heterocycles as precision photosensitizers. The dipolar compounds could be excited in the NIR due to a high two-photon brightness while exhibiting emission in the red part of the visible spectra (600-700 nm). Interaction with the mitochondria leads to an unexpected blue-shift of the emission of the far-red emitting compounds, which we assign to emission from the locally excited state. Interaction and possibly aggregation at the mitochondria prevents access to the intramolecular charge transfer state responsible for far-red emission.

Abstract
Long-term visualization of lysosomal properties is extremely crucial to evaluate diseases related to their dysfunction. However, many of the reported lysotrackers are less conducive to imaging lysosomes precisely because they suffer from fluorescence quenching and other inherent drawbacks such as pH-sensitivity, polarity insensitivity, water insolubility, slow diffusibility, and poor photostability. To overcome these limitations, we have utilized an alkyl chain length engineering strategy and synthesized a series of lysosome targeting fluorescent derivatives namely NIMCs by attaching a morpholine moiety at the peri position of the 1,8-naphthalimide (NI) ring through varying alkyl spacers between morpholine and 1,8-naphthalimide. The structural and optical properties of the synthesized NIMCs were explored by 1H-NMR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Afterward, optical spectroscopic measurements were carefully performed to identify a pH-tolerant, polarity sensitive, and highly photostable fluoroprobes for further live-cell imaging applications. NIMC6 displayed excellent pH-tolerant and polarity-sensitive properties. Consequently, all NIMCs were employed in kidney fibroblast cells (BHK-21) to investigate their applicability for lysosome targeting and probing lysosomal micropolarity. Interestingly, a switching of localization from lysosomes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was also achieved by controlling the linker length and this phenomenon was subsequently applied in determining ER micropolarity. Additionally, the selected probe NIMC6 was also employed in BHK-21 cells for 3-D spheroid imaging and in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) for in vivo imaging, to evaluate its efficacy for imaging animal models.

Abstract
As a key reactive oxygen species (ROS), hypochlorous acid (HClO) plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. The mitochondria-targeting probes for the highly sensitive detection of HClO are desirable. In present work, we designed and synthesized an original mitochondria-localizing and turn-on fluorescent probe for detecting HClO. 4-Aminonaphthalimide was employed as the fluorescent section, the (2-aminoethyl)-thiourea unit was utilized as a typical sensing unit, and the quaternized pyridinium moiety was used as a mitochondria-targeted localization group. When HClO was absent, the probe showed weak fluorescence. In the existence of HClO, the probe revealed a blue fluorescence. Moreover, the turn-on fluorescent probe was able to function in a broad pH scope. There was an excellent linearity between the fluorescence emission intensity at 488 nm and the concentrations of HClO in the range of 5.0 × 10-7 to 2.5 × 10-6 mol·L-1. Additionally, the probe had almost no cell toxicity and possessed an excellent mitochondria-localizing capability. Furthermore, the probe was able to image HClO in mitochondria of living PC-12 cells. The above remarkable properties illustrated that the probe was able to determine HClO in mitochondria of living cells.

Abstract
Lysosome of phagocyte is the main site of hypochlorous acid (HClO) production, and HClO can be employed as the biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment evaluation of arthritis. In recent years, developing fluorescent probes for lysosomal HClO has attracted considerable attention, but most of them still have some defects, such as autofluorescence, phototoxicity and photobleaching because of their excitation and emission located in short-wavelength region. Due to the advantages of two-photon fluorescent probes with near-infrared emissions, a lysosome-targetable two-photon fluorescent probe (Lyso-TP-HClO) with a near-infrared emission was reported in this paper. Lyso-TP-HClO has a high selectivity and a high sensitivity to HClO in the linear range (10.0 × 10-8 to 5.0 × 10-6 M), with a detection limit of 3.0 × 10-8 M. Due to the two-photon excited near-infrared emission, Lyso-TP-HClO has excellent imaging performances, such as small autofluorescence, excellent photostability, and large imaging depth. Furthermore, Lyso-TP-HClO was successfully employed for visualizing lysosomal HClO in bacteria-infected cells. At last, we have successfully used Lyso-TP-HClO to image the arthritis and evaluate the treatment of arthritis in mice. All the results confirm that Lyso-TP-HClO is a useful chemical tool for imaging of lysosomal HClO, the diagnosis of arthritis, and treatment evaluation of arthritis.

Abstract
An iodine-catalyzed, environmentally benign one-pot methodology has been developed for the synthesis of diverse substituted imidazoles. This transition-metal-free, aerobic, water-mediated cyclization reaction is operationally simple and works well with different amines or aldehydes by multiple C-N bond formations with satisfactory yield. The methodology is regioselective as well as scalable. These imidazole derivatives show excellent fluorescence properties both in the solid and solution phase, which is further extended to live-cell imaging. Due to the suitable fluorescence properties of these scaffolds, lysosome-directing groups are incorporated in two of these derivatized imidazoles to track intracellular lysosomes. Successfully, those molecules show bright blue fluorescence while detecting lysosomes in human or murine cells and can be considered to be rapid lysosome-staining probes.

Abstract
A morpholine-functionalized pyrrole-cyanine probe was synthesized via a simple condensation reaction in high yield. This probe exhibits high selectivity toward ClO- on fluorescence and UV-vis spectra in neat aqueous solution. The strong green emission of the probe solution was quenched and the yellow color faded immediately upon the addition of ClO-. The detection limit of the probe for ClO- was 0.165 μM. The mechanism of hypochlorite-induced CC breakage was supposed on the basis of EIS-MS, NMR, and density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Finally, the probe was utilized to image ClO- in lysosomes of living cells.

Abstract
Up to three polychlorinated pyridyldiphenylmethyl radicals bridged by a triphenylamine carrying electron withdrawing (CN), neutral (Me), or donating (OMe) groups were synthesized and analogous radicals bridged by tris(2,6-dimethylphenyl)borane were prepared for comparison. All compounds were as stable as common closed-shell organic compounds and showed significant fluorescence upon excitation. Electronic, magnetic, absorption, and emission properties were examined in detail, and experimental results were interpreted using DFT calculations. Oxidation potentials, absorption and emission energies could be tuned depending on the electron density of the bridges. The triphenylamine bridges mediated intramolecular weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the radical spins, and the energy difference between the high spin and low spin states was determined by temperature dependent ESR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The fluorescent properties of all radicals were examined in detail and revealed no difference for high and low spin states which facilitates application of these dyes in two-photon absorption spectroscopy and OLED devices.

Abstract
Molecular probes suitable for different fluorescence imaging technologies can meet the requirements of different scientific research in biological applications. In this work, a naphthalimide-cyanine-based sulfonamide was used to specifically visualize the glutathione of mouse tissues with a two-photon manner for the naphthalimide moiety and a near-infrared manner for the cyanine moiety, respectively. The results showed that this probe served as a dual-model tissue-imaging agent for visualization of glutathione with around 200 μm imaging depth in a two-photon manner and 120 μm imaging depth in a near-infrared manner, which provided a model for tissue imaging in the visible and near-infrared channels.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) played an important role in storing neutral lipids process. In this work, we developed a series of fluorescent dyes PIE1-PIE4 with high fluorescence quantum yields based on a single phenanthrenequinone imidazole fluorophore core. Among these compounds, we introduced diethyl aniline group on the phenanthrenequinone imidazole core to provide the compound PIE1. It is firstly found that PIE1 could real-color image and track lipid droplets (LDs) in living cells. However, we modified nitrile, imidazole and methyl group on the same fluorophore core to afford three dyes PIE2, PIE3 and PIE4, respectively. Although PIE2, PIE3 and PIE4 possessed high fluorescence quantum yields in various organic solvents, they could not real-color image and track LDs in living cells.

Abstract
A series of tetracationic quadrupolar chromophores containing three-coordinate boron π-acceptors linked by different π-bridges, namely 4,4'-biphenyl, 2,7-pyrene, 2,7-fluorene, 3,6-carbazole and 5,5'-di(thien-2-yl)-3,6-diketopyrrolopyrrole, were synthesized. While their neutral precursors 1-5 displayed highly solvatochromic fluorescence, the water-soluble tetracationic target molecules 1M-5M, did not, but their emission colour could be tuned from blue to pink by changing the π-bridge. Compound 5M, containing the diketopyrrolopyrrole bridge, exhibits the most red-shifted absorption and emission maxima and the largest two-photon absorption cross-section (4560 GM at 740 nm in MeCN). Confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy studies in live cells confirm localization of the dye at the lysosome. Moreover, the low cytotoxicity, and high photostability of 5M combined with two-photon excited fluorescence imaging studies demonstrate its excellent potential for lysosomal imaging in live cells.

Abstract
The vigorous development of nanotechnology has been accompanied by an equally strong interest and research efforts in nano-based drug delivery systems (NDDSs). However, only a few NDDSs have been translated into clinic thus far. One of the important hurdles is the lack of tools to comprehensively and directly trace the biological fate of NDDSs. Recently, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorophores have emerged as attractive bioimaging tools due to flexible controllability, negligible toxicity and superior photostability. Herein, we recapitulate the current advances in the application of AIE fluorophores to monitor NDDSs both in vitro and in vivo. Particularly, we discuss the cellular fates of self-indicating and stimuli-responsive NDDSs with AIE fluorophores. Moreover, we highlight the in vivo application of AIE agents on the long-term tracking of therapeutics and the multi-modal monitoring of diagnostics in NDDSs. Challenges and opportunities in AIE-guided exploration of NDDSs are also discussed in detail.
