Abstract
Abnormal concentration levels of trivalent metal ions (M3+) might hinder their natural biological activities in physiological processes and cause severe health hazards. Herein, a dual-chromophore probe (RhB-TPE) composed of rhodamine and tetraphenylethene (TPE) units was synthesized and explored for discriminating M3+ ions. It exhibited special aggregation and AIE properties in aqueous media. Its ensemble with anionic surfactant SDBS assemblies (RhB-TPE/SDBS) could be utilized as fluorescent sensors for selective and sensitive detection of M3+ ions such as Fe3+, Al3+, and Cr3+ by illustrating quenched TPE emission and switched-on rhodamine emission. Moreover, the use of SDBS assemblies at two concentrations could provide a single-probe-based sensor array and realize four-signal pattern recognition of different concentrations of the three M3+ ions and identify M3+ mixtures or unknown samples. The cross-reactive fluorescence variation was attributed to the M3+ influence on the FRET process from TPE to open-ring form rhodamine in the two ensemble sensors. With the coexistence of Al3+, the optimized RhB-TPE/SDBS ensemble sensor array was successfully applied to differentiate commercially available brand mineral water and purified water, as well as tap water. The present work provides a novel strategy to generate a single-probe-based sensor array and realizes fingerprint recognition of three trivalent metal ions and efficient discrimination of different types of water. The modulation FRET process of a dual chromophore in different surfactant ensembles inspires the future construction of novel and effective sensing platforms.

Supramolecular Assembly Based on Calix(4)arene and Aggregation-Induced Emission Photosensitizer for Phototherapy of Drug-Resistant Bacteria and Skin Flap Transplantation. Adv Healthc Mater 2024; 13:e2303336.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy as a burgeoning and non-invasive theranostic technique has drawn great attention in the field of antibacterial treatment but often encounters undesired phototoxicity of photosensitizers during systemic circulation. Herein, a supramolecular substitution strategy is proposed for phototherapy of drug-resistant bacteria and skin flap repair by using macrocyclic p-sulfonatocalix(4)arene (SC4A) as a host, and two cationic aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens), namely TPE-QAS and TPE-2QAS, bearing quaternary ammonium group(s) as guests. Through host-guest assembly, the obtained complex exhibits obvious blue fluorescence in the solution due to the restriction of free motion of AIEgens and drastically inhibits efficient type I ROS generation. Then, upon the addition of another guest 4,4'-benzidine dihydrochloride, TPE-QAS can be competitively replaced from the cavity of SC4A to restore its pristine ROS efficiency and photoactivity in aqueous solution. The dissociative TPE-QAS shows a high bacterial binding ability with an efficient treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in dark and light irradiation. Meanwhile, it also exhibits an improved survival rate for MRSA-infected skin flap transplantation and largely accelerates the healing process. Thus, such cascaded host-guest assembly is an ideal platform for phototheranostics research.

Abstract
Coordinative supramolecular cages with adjustable cavities have found extensive applications in various fields, but the cavity modification strategies for multi-functional structures are still challenging. Here, we present a tension-driven self-expansion strategy for construction of multi-cavity cages with high structural complexity. Under the regulation of strain-induced capping ligands, unprecedented heteromorphosis triple-cavity cages S2 /S4 were obtained based on a metallo-organic ligand (MOL) scaffold. The heteromorphosis cages exhibited significant higher cavity diversity than the homomorphous double-cavity cages S1 /S3 ; all of the cages were thoroughly characterized through various analytical techniques including (1D and 2D) NMR, ESI-MS, TWIM-MS, AFM, and SAXS analyses. Furthermore, the encapsulation of porphyrin in the cavities of these multi-cavity cages were investigated. This research opens up new possibilities for the architecture of heteromorphosis supramolecular cages via precisely controlled "scaffold-capping" assembly with preorganized ligands, which could have potential applications in the development of multifunctional structures with higher complexity.

Abstract
The p-, m- and o-N,N-dimethylamino analogs of the green fluorescent protein (GFP) chromophore (denoted as p-DBHI, m-DBHI and o-DBHI) were synthesized by 2,3-cycloaddition. These three compounds were structurally characterized by NMR, HRMS and single crystal X-ray diffraction and were shown to be in the Z-form in both the solid phase and solution. Their fluorescence properties and self-assembly behaviors were investigated by UV-Vis, photoluminescence spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. They exhibited low fluorescence quantum yields in both protic and aprotic solvents, which was consistent with the reported results, and strong emissions in the solid state, thus exhibiting aggregation-induced emission (AIE) behaviors. By a solvent exchange method, the p-DBHI and o-DBHI were assembled into microsheets, while the m-DBHI was assembled into microtubule-like structures. The photoluminescence properties of the assemblies were compared with those of the pristine microcrystalline powders obtained by evaporation from organic solvents. The fluorescence quantum yields of the microcrystals obtained by self-assembly were recorded to 9.86 %, 3.37 % and 31.65 %, respectively, which were much higher than those of the corresponding pristine powders (4.71 %, 2.51 % and 17.03 %). This indicated that the fluorescence properties in the solid state depended on the morphologies of the particles.

Abstract
Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials have attracted considerable attention for their promising applications in encryption, chiral sensing, and three-dimensional (3D) displays. However, the preparation of high-efficiency, pure blue CPL materials remains challenging. In this study, we reported an enantiomeric pair of triangle copper(I) clusters (R/S-Cu3) rigidified by employing chiral N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands with two pyridine-functionalized wingtips. These chiral clusters emitted pure blue phosphorescence that overlapped with that of the commercial blue phosphor having Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates of (0.14, 0.10), and the films exhibited an unprecedented photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of ∼70.0%. Additionally, the solutions showed very bright circularly polarized phosphorescence (CPP) with a dissymmetry factor of ±2.1 × 10-3. The excellent solubility and photostability endowed these pure-blue-emitting chiral clusters with promising applications as pure blue CPP inks for 3D printing white objects, such as precise-atomic-enlarged models of metal clusters and a lovely white stereoscopic "rabbit". The intricate mechanism underlying blue phosphorescence in this small cluster and across various states is elucidated through a comprehensive approach that integrates thorough analysis of luminescence properties, controlled experiments, and theoretical calculations. For the first time, we propose that the dominant high-energy emission center is constituted by delocalized hybrid orbitals over multiple atomic centers, encompassing both the metal and the coordinated atoms. This challenges stereotypical assumptions that the cluster center solely supports low-energy emissions. This work expands the currently limited range of CPP functional materials and provides a new direction for CPP applications involving NHC-stabilized metal clusters.

Abstract
The measurement of temperature is indispensable in the fields of life, science, and industry. Fluorescence thermometers are attractive to researchers because of their advantages such as noncontact, high sensitivity, fast response, and excellent anti-interference. Here, a new coordination polymer (HNU-76) was synthesized by assembling Zn2+ with the H3TCA ligand, a fluorescent molecule with an AIE behavior, which can be used as a fluorescence thermometer. At 100-210 K, the fluorescence intensity ratio of HNU-76 versus temperature conforms to an Arrhenius-type decay relationship (R2 = 0.997), which can be the candidate for low-temperature sensing. In order to increase the sensing range, 4-[4-(dimethylamino)styryl] pyndine (DMSP) was successfully embedded on HNU-76, obtaining HNU-76⊃DMSP. The fluorescence intensity of HNU-76⊃DMSP conforms to an Arrhenius-type decay relationship (R2 = 0.997) at 270-360 K versus temperature. HNU-76 can be used for fluorescence detection at low temperatures, due to the DMSP loading, and HNU-76⊃DMSP can serve as the temperature thermometer in a range of temperatures common. Both materials show good cyclability and have the potential to be used in fluorescence thermometers.

Abstract
Manipulation of the chirality at all scales has a cross-disciplinary importance and may address key challenges at the heart of physical sciences. One critical question in this field is how the chirality of one entity can be transferred to the asymmetry of another entity. Here, we find that small molecules play a crucial role in the chirality transfer from chiral organic molecules to CdSe/CdS nanorods, where the handedness of the nanorod assemblies either agrees or disagrees with that of the molecular assemblies, leading to the positive or inverse chirality transfer. The assembling mode of nanorods on the molecular assemblies, where the nanorods are either lying or standing, is closely associated with the handedness of the nanorod assemblies, resulting in opposite chirality. Furthermore, we have found that circularly polarized emission from chiral assemblies of nanorods is dependent on molecular additives. The promoted luminescence dissymmetry factor (glum) of the nanocomposites with a high value of ∼0.3 could be attained under optimal conditions.

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
Stimuli-responsive assembly deformation is a key feature in constructing smart soft materials, which makes them versatile and autonomous. In this study, rod-coil amphiphilic compounds containing spiropyran (SP) groups were developed and synthesized to investigate their stimuli-responsive assembly in a solution system with 99% water content. In addition to photochromic phenomena, reversible light-mediated morphological alterations occurred in these molecular aggregates. Based on the different flexible chain segments of rod-coil amphiphiles, the initial assemblies underwent a dissociation-reassembly process under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, whereupon they deformed or disassembled to assemblies. Furthermore, as the UV source was removed, the original nanostructures were gradually recovered again via the ring-closing reaction process. These compounds, interestingly, can selectively combine with copper ions to produce cross-linked co-assembled nanostructures. The copper ion complex solution of rod-coil amphiphilic compounds emitted unique bright blue fluorescence, which allowed for the specific visual identification of copper ions in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
The discovery of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon in 2001 has had a significant impact on materials development across different research disciplines. AIE-active materials have been widely exploited for various applications in optoelectronics, sensing, biomedical, and stimuli-responsive systems, etc. This is made possible by integrating AIE features with other fields of science and engineering, such as nanoscience and nanotechnology. AIE has been extensively employed, particularly for biomedical applications, such as biosensing, bioimaging, and theranostics. However, development of AIE-based nanotechnology for other applications is comparatively less, although there have been increasing research activities in recent years. Given the significance and potential of the marriage between AIE hallmark and nanotechnology in AIE-active materials development, this review article summarizes and showcases the latest research efforts in AIE-based nanomaterials, including nanomaterials synthesis and their nonbiomedical applications, such as sensing, optoelectronics, functional coatings, and stimuli-responsive systems. A perspective on the outlook of AIE-based nanostructured materials and relevant nanotechnology for nonbiomedical applications will be provided, giving an insight into how to design AIE-active nanostructures as well as their applications beyond the biomedical domain.

Abstract
The use of polyoxometalate clusters (POMs) with multitudinous structures and surface properties as building blocks has sparked the development of cluster-assembled materials with many prospective applications. In comparison to classic molecules and assembly processes, control over the steric interactions and linkage of large POMs to achieve superlattices with multiple levels of organization remains a great challenge. This work presents a universal approach to modulate the spatial coordination behavior and configurations, and achieves a class of cluster superlattice architectures formed by linear alignment and two-dimensional arrangement of POM units. The formation mechanism is explained as a stepwise co-assembly pathway in which POMs can intervene and dictate a typical stripping-restacking combination mode with the lamellar mediator. These cluster superlattices with long-range POMs ordering impart distinct merits to their derivatives by sulfuration, for which we demonstrate the substantially promoted power and cycling life of these POM derivatives applied as sodium-ion battery anodes.

Abstract
The realization of automated chemical experiments by robots unveiled the prelude to an artificial intelligence (AI) laboratory. Several AI-based systems or robots with specific chemical skills have been demonstrated, but conducting all-round scientific research remains challenging. Here, we present an all-round AI-Chemist equipped with scientific data intelligence that is capable of performing basic tasks generally required in chemical research. Based on a service platform, the AI-Chemist is able to automatically read the literatures from a cloud database and propose experimental plans accordingly. It can control a mobile robot in-house or online to automatically execute the complete experimental process on 14 workstations, including synthesis, characterization and performance tests. The experimental data can be simultaneously analysed by the computational brain of the AI-Chemist through machine learning and Bayesian optimization, allowing a new hypothesis for the next iteration to be proposed. The competence of the AI-Chemist has been scrutinized by three different chemical tasks. In the future, the more advanced all-round AI-Chemists equipped with scientific data intelligence may cause changes to the landscape of the chemical laboratory.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) represents a powerful tool in nanoscience as a result of enhanced luminescence in the condensed state. Although AIEgenic materials have been utilized in a wide range of applications, well-defined self-assembled nanoparticles with tailorable and uniform dimensions and morphology remain challenging to access. Herein, we use the seeded growth, living crystallization-driven self-assembly (CDSA) method to prepare size-tunable and uniform AIE-active 2D nanoplatelets from amphiphilic block copolymer (BCP) precursors with a crystallizable core-forming block and a corona-forming block to which tetraphenylethene (TPE) groups were covalently grafted as AIE-active pendants. The nanoplatelets were formed as a result of a solvophobicity-induced 1D to 2D morphology preference change, which accompanied the seeded growth of a BCP with a quaternized corona-forming block bearing the TPE luminogen. The 2D nanoplatelets exhibited a solvent-responsive fluorescent emission, and examples with coronas containing homogeneously distributed AIE-active TPE groups and Hg(II)-capturing thymine units exhibited excellent performance as proof-of-concept "turn-on" sensors for Hg(II) detection with a rapid response, high selectivity, and a low detection limit (5-125 × 10-9 M, i.e., 1-25 ppb). The fluorescence intensity was found to be nonlinear with respect to analyte concentration and to increase with the area of the nanoplatelet. This behavior is consistent with a cooperative mechanism based on changes in the steric compression of the corona chains, which gives rise to a restriction of the intramolecular motion (RIM) effect.

Proteasomal and autophagy-mediated degradation of mutp53 proteins through mitochondria-targeting aggregation-induced-emission materials. Acta Biomater 2022; 150:402-412.

Abstract
Close to half of human cancers harbor point mutations in the tumor-suppressor p53 gene, giving rise to the cellular accumulation of mutant p53 (mutp53) proteins with novel neomorphic gain-of-function (GOF) properties. The destruction of mutp53 proteins through either autophagic or proteasomal degradation is a viable strategy for the targeted therapy of p53-mutated cancers. Several nanomaterials, including zinc-iron and ZIF-8 nanoparticles (NPs), have been reported to induce the proteasomal degradation of mutp53 proteins. However, how autophagy, the other major cellular degradative pathway, influences NP-induced mutp53 degradation has not been investigated. This article shows that AIE-Mit-TPP, a mitochondria-targeting material with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, elicits ubiquitination-dependent proteasomal degradation of a broad range of mutp53 proteins. Meanwhile, AIE-Mit-TPP also induces massive mitochondrial damage and autophagy. The inhibition of autophagy further increases AIE-Mit-TPP-elicited mutp53 degradation, revealing the negative impact of autophagy on AIE-Mit-TPP-induced mutp53 degradation. As expected, the degradation of mutp53 proteins by AIE-Mit-TPP abrogated mutp53-manifested GOF, leading to reductions in cell proliferation and migration and increases in cell cycle arrest and cell death. Consequently, AIE-Mit-TPP inhibited the growth of mutp53 tumors. This paper unravels the interesting interplay between the proteasomal and autophagic degradative pathways and pinpoints the modulation of autophagy as a potential strategy for optimizing NP-induced mutp53 degradation and p53-targeted cancer therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We have designed three different types of AIE materials: non-targeting (AIE-Br), mitochondria-targeting (AIE-Mit-TPP), lysosome-targeting (AIE-Lyso). Our results proved that mitochondria-targeting AIE material induced degradation of mutp53 proteins via the proteasome degradation pathway and abrogated mutp53-conferred GOF phenotypes. Furthermore, we performed in vitro studies on the effect of the tested materials in mutp53-expressing cancer cells and demonstrated our findings via in vivo investigations in a mouse subcutaneous p53R175H TOV112D ovarian cancer model. Our results confirmed the link between the proteasome pathway and autophagy and thus proposed a strategy of combining AIE-Mit-TPP with autophagy inhibitors for the targeted treatment of mutp53-associated tumors. Finally, we found that AIE-Mit-TPP could induce degradation of a wide-spectrum mutp53 proteins, which makes mitochondria-targeting AIE materials an effective therapeutic strategy for p53-mutated cancers.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-based circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) has been recognized as a promising pathway for developing chiroptical materials with high luminescence dissymmetry factors (|glum|). Here, we propose a method for the construction of a thermally tunable CPL-active system based on a supramolecular self-assembly approach that utilizes helical nano- or microfilament templates in conjunction with an AIE dye. The CPL properties of the ensuing ensembles are predominantly determined by the intrinsic geometric differences among the various filament templates such as their overall dimensions (width, height, and helical pitch) and the area fraction of the exposed aromatic segments or sublayers. The proposed mechanism is based on the collective data acquired by absorption, steady state and time-resolved fluorescence, absolute quantum yield, and CPL measurements. The highest |glum| value for the most promising dual-modulated helical nanofilament templates in the present series was further enhanced, reaching up to |glum| = 0.25 by confinement in the appropriate diameter of anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) nanochannels. It is envisioned that this methodology will afford new insights into the design of temperature-rate indicators or anti-counterfeiting tags using a combination of structural color by the nano- and microfilament templates and the AIE property of the guest dye.

We report for the very first time the crystal structure and self-assembly of a new aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) dye 4-(5-methoxythiazolo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-yl)-N,N-dimethylaniline (TPA) and its application in sensing dichromate ions. TPA reveals cyan blue emission under UV and visible light. The self-assembly properties of TPA were studied extensively by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) which revealed the formation of beautiful flower-like morphologies. These structures revealed both green and red fluorescence under FITC and rhodamine filters respectively when observed through fluorescence microscopy connoting the panchromatic emission properties of TPA from blue to red. The interactions which cause self-assembled structure formation in TPA were also validated theoretically using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Crystal and molecular structure analysis of TPA was carried out via single-crystal X-ray diffraction to visualize the intermolecular interactions occurring in the solid-state and to study the structure-photophysical property relationship in the aggregated state. The photophysical properties of TPA were also studied extensively by UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy and its quantum yield and fluorescence lifetime were calculated by time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC). Interestingly, TPA could efficiently sense dichromate (Cr2O72-) ions in an acidic medium and an interesting morphological transition from a fluorescent flower to non-fluorescent disassembled structures could also be observed. The limit of detection of TPA for Cr2O72- ions was found to be as low as 5.5 nM, suggesting its exceptional sensitivity. More importantly, TPA could selectively sense Cr2O72- ions in real water samples even in the presence of other metal ions routinely present in polluted water, hence making it practically useful for water quality monitoring.

Abstract
The phenomenon of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) is inseparable from molecular aggregation and self-assembly. Therefore, the combination of AIE and supramolecular self-assembly is well-matched. AIE-guided dynamic assembly (AGDA) could effectively respond to the endogenous stimuli (such as pH, enzymes, redox molecules) and exogenous stimuli (temperature, light, ultrasound) in the disease microenvironment, so as to achieve specific imaging and diagnosis of the disease lesions. Moreover, AGDA also dynamically adjust the intramolecular motions of AIE molecules, thereby adjusting the energy dissipation pathways and realizing the switch between photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy for superior therapeutic effects. In this review, we aim to give an overview of the constructing strategies, stimuli-responsive imaging, regulation of intramolecular motion of AGDA in recent years, which is expected to grasp the research status and striving directions of AGDA for imaging and therapy.

Abstract
Coordination-driven self-assembly of metallacages has garnered significant interest because of their 3D layout and cavity-cored nature. The well-defined, highly tunable metallacage structures render them particularly attractive for investigating the properties of luminophores, as well as for inducing novel photophysical characters that enable widespread applications. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in synthetic methodologies for light-emitting metallacages, and highlight some representative applications of these metallacages. In particular, we focus on the favorable photophysical properties—including high luminescence efficiency in various physical states, good modularity in photophysical properties and stimulus responsiveness—that have resulted from incorporating ligands displaying aggregation-induced emission (AIE) into metallacages. These features show that the synergy between carrying out coordination-driven self-assembly and using luminophores with novel photophysical characteristics like AIE could stimulate the development of supramolecular luminophores for applications in fields as diverse as sensing, biomedicine and catalysis.

Abstract
We have quantum chemically analyzed the cooperative effects and structural deformations of hydrogen-bonded urea, deltamide, and squaramide linear chains using dispersion-corrected density functional theory at BLYP-D3(BJ)/TZ2P level of theory. Our purpose is twofold: (i) reveal the bonding mechanism of the studied systems that lead to their self-assembly in linear chains; and (ii) rationalize the C-C bond equalization in the ring moieties of deltamide and squaramide upon polymerization. Our energy decomposition and Kohn-Sham molecular orbital analyses reveal cooperativity in all studied systems, stemming from the charge separation within the σ-electronic system by charge transfer from the carbonyl oxygen lone pair donor orbital of one monomer towards the σ* N-H antibonding acceptor orbital of the neighboring monomer. This key orbital interaction causes the C=O bonds to elongate, which, in turn, results in the contraction of the adjacent C-C single bonds that, ultimately, makes the ring moieties of deltamide and squaramide to become more regular. Notably, the π-electron delocalization plays a much smaller role in the total interaction between the monomers in the chain.

Abstract
Artificial photofunctional systems with energy and electron transfer functions, inspired from photosynthesis in nature, have been developed for many promising applications including solar cell, biolabeling, photoelectric materials, and photodriven catalysis. Supramolecular hosts including macrocycles and cages have been explored for simulating photosynthesis based on a host-guest strategy. Herein, we report a host-guest approach by using a tetraphenylethene-based octacationic cage and fluorescent dyes to construct artificial photofunctional systems with energy and electron transfer functions. The cage traps various dyes within its hydrophobic cavity to form 1:1 host-guest complexes via CH-π, π-π, and/or electrostatic interactions in solution. The efficient energy transfer and ultrafast photoinduced electron transfer between the cage and dyes are competitive processes with each other in artificial photofunctional systems. Spectroscopic techniques that confirm energy transfer from the fluorescent cage to dyes (e.g., NiR, R700, and R800) are efficient, which induce the red shift of fluorescence. On the other hand, ultrafast photoinduced electron transfer from dyes (e.g., ICG, AG, and AV) to the fluorescent cage can induce fluorescence quenching. This study provides an insight into the construction of artificial photofunctional systems with energy and electron transfer functions via a host-guest approach in solution.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT), as an efficient way of tumor treatment, has the advantages of deep tumor penetration and high therapeutic efficacy. However, developing efficient sonosensitizers are still challenging. AIEgen-based SDT is rarely reported and it is urgent to develop novel AIEgen-active sonosensitizers. Furthermore, the AIEgen-based theranostic system is promisingly needed to be proved on PDX models to be closer to the clinic. Herein, we constructed a novel AIEgen based SDT system and found that DCPy has advantages over traditional sonosensitizers in SDT. Then, a patient-derived MVs/AIEgen hybrid system (AMVs) prepared by electroporation was used for personalized SDT in bladder cancer patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. Impressively, AMVs displayed the superior tumor targeting ability and efficient personalized SDT therapy on PDX models, both of which were much more improved compared with PLGA/AIEgens nanoparticles and cell line-derived micro vesicles. This work provides new ideas for both the design of AIE-active sonosensitizers and the SDT treatment of cancers, further expanding the potential clinical application of AIEgens in the future.

Abstract
Two tetraphenylethene-based tetracationic cyclophanes 1 and 2 were synthesized via a one-step SN2 reaction without using any template. Based on the fluorescence and rotational conformation of the tetraphenylethene units, these water-soluble cyclophanes exhibited adaptive chirality with dual responses of turn-on fluorescence and induced circular dichroism when combined with nucleotides and DNA in water.

Abstract
The development of fluorescent gels, if not the current focus, is at the center of recent efforts devoted to the invention of a new generation of gels. Fluorescent gels have numerous properties that are intrinsic to the gel structure, with additional light-emitting properties making them attractive for different applications. This review focuses on current studies associated with the development of fluorescent gels using aggregation-induced emission fluorophores (AIEgens) to ultimately suggest new directions for future research. Here, we discuss major drawbacks of the methodologies used frequently for the fabrication of fluorescent gels using traditional fluorophores compared to those using AIEgens. The fabrication strategies to develop AIE-based fluorescent gels, including physical mixing, soaking, self-assembly, noncovalent interactions, and permanent chemical reactions, are discussed thoroughly. New and recent findings on developing AIE-active gels are explained. Specifically, physically prepared AIE-based gels including supramolecular, ionic, and chemically prepared AIE-based gels are discussed. In addition, the intrinsic fluorescent properties of natural gels, known as clustering-triggered fluorescent gel, and new and recent relevant findings published in peer-reviewed journals are explained. This review also revealed the biomedical applications of AIE-based fluorescent hydrogels including drug delivery, biosensors, bioimaging, and tissue engineering. In conclusion, the current research situation and future directions are identified.
