Abstract
Chemotherapy is widely recognized as an effective approach for treating cancer due to its ability to eliminate cancer cells using chemotherapeutic drugs. However, traditional chemotherapy suffers from various drawbacks, including limited solubility and stability of drugs, severe side effects, low bioavailability, drug resistance, and challenges in tracking treatment efficacy. These limitations greatly hinder its widespread clinical application. In contrast, supramolecular chemotherapy, which relies on host-guest interactions, presents a promising alternative by offering highly efficient and minimally toxic anticancer drug delivery. In this review, an overview of recent advancements in supramolecular chemotherapy based on host-guest interactions is provided. The significant role it plays in guiding cancer therapy is emphasized. Drawing on a wealth of cutting-edge research, herein, a timely and valuable resource for individuals interested in the field of supramolecular chemotherapy or cancer therapy, is presented. Furthermore, this review contributes to the progression of the field of supramolecular chemotherapy toward clinical application.

Abstract
The advent of numerous treatment modalities with desirable therapeutic efficacy has been made possible by the fast development of nanomedicine and materdicine, among which the ultrasound (US)-triggered sonocatalytic process as minimal or non-invasive method has been frequently employed for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. In comparison to phototherapeutic approaches with inherent penetration depth limitations, sonocatalytic therapy shatters the depth limit of photoactivation and offers numerous remarkable prospects and advantages, including mitigated side effects and appropriate tissue-penetration depth. Nevertheless, the optimization of sonosensitizers and therapies remains a significant issue in terms of precision, intelligence and efficiency. In light of the fact that nanomedicine and materdicine can effectively enhance the theranostic efficiency, we herein aim to furnish a cutting-edge review on the latest progress and development of nanomedicine/materdicine-enabled sonocatalytic therapy. The design methodologies and biological features of nanomedicine/materdicine-based sonosensitizers are initially introduced to reveal the underlying relationship between composition/structure, sonocatalytic function and biological effect, in accompany with a thorough discussion of nanomedicine/materdicine-enabled synergistic therapy. Ultimately, the facing challenges and future perspectives of this intriguing sonocatalytic therapy are highlighted and outlined to promote technological advancements and clinical translation in efficient disease treatment.

Abstract
Discrete organometallic complexes with defined structures are proceeding rapidly in combating malignant tumors due to their multipronged treatment modalities. Many innovative superiorities, such as high antitumor activity, extremely low systemic toxicity, active targeting ability, and enhanced cellular uptake, make them more competent for clinical applications than individual precursors. In particular, coordination-induced regulation of luminescence and photophysical properties of organic light-emitting ligands has demonstrated significant potential in the timely evaluation of therapeutic efficacy by bioimaging and enabled synergistic photodynamic therapy (PDT) or photothermal therapy (PTT). This review highlights instructive examples of multimodal radiochemotherapy platforms for cancer ablation based on self-assembled metallacycles/metallacages, which would be classified by functions in a progressive manner. Finally, the essential demands and some plausible prospects in this field for cancer therapy are also presented.

Abstract
Recently, metal-based drugs have attracted relentless interest in the biomedical field. However, their short excitation/emission wavelengths and unsatisfactory therapeutic efficiency limit their biological applications in vivo. Currently, the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) provides more accurate imaging and therapeutic options. Thus, there has been a constant focus on developing multifunctional NIR metal agents for imaging and therapy that have deeper tissue penetration. Fortunately, supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) formed by the coordination-driven self-assembly of NIR-II emissive ligands can address the above issues. Importantly, metal receptors with chemotherapeutic properties in SCCs can bind to luminescent ligands, thus becoming a versatile therapeutic platform for chemotherapy, imaging and phototherapy. In this context, we systematically summarize the evolution of NIR-II emissive SCCs for biomedical applications and discuss future challenges and prospects.

Abstract
The incorporation of chirality endows Pt(II)-based metal-organic complexes (MOCs) with unique potentials in several fields such as nonlinear optics and chiral catalysis. However, the exploration of chiral Pt(II) metallacycles in biological responses remains underdeveloped. Herein, we designed and synthesized two chiral Pt(II) metallacycles 1 and 2 via the coordination-driven self-assembly of chiral 1,1'-spirobiindane-7,7'-diol (SPINOL)-derived ligands and cis-Pt(PEt3)2(OTf)2 (90°Pt). Their structures were well characterized by 1H NMR, 31P{1H} NMR, ESI-TOF-MS, and X-ray crystallography, and their photophysical properties were investigated by UV-vis absorption, fluorescence, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies. Then, the antitumor activity of the two chiral metallacycles in vitro was further tested. Complexes 1 and 2 exhibited strong cytotoxicity, especially toward the A549 cells. The destruction of the mitochondrial function, the inhibition of the glutathione (GSH)/glutathione disulfide (GSSG) level, and the inactivation of superoxide dismutase (SOD) induced by complexes 1 and 2 led to the massive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The overloaded ROS then triggered apoptotic cell death, and the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) further induced immunogenic cell death (ICD). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of Pt(II)-based metallacycles that can induce immunogenic cell death, providing a new strategy for the future design and construction of immune-modulating platinum agents in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hierarchical self-assembly of Pt(II) metallacycles for the construction of functional materials has received considerable research interest, owing to their potential to meet increasing complexity and functionality demands while being based on well-defined scaffolds. However, the fabrication of long-range-ordered Pt(II) metallacycle-based two-dimensional hierarchical self-assemblies (2D HSAs) remains a challenge, primarily because of the limitations of conventional orthogonal noncovalent interaction (NCI) motifs and the intrinsic characteristics of Pt(II) metallacycles, making the delicate self-assembly processes difficult to control. Herein, we prepare well-regulated Pt(II)-metallacycle-based 2D HSAs through a directed strategy involving double cation-π interactions derived from C3-symmetric hexagonal Pt(II) metallacycles and C2-symmetric sodium phenate monomers. Spatially confined arrays of planar Pt(II) metallacycles and the selective growth of self-assemblies at desired locations are achieved by employing strong cation-π driving forces with well-defined directionality as the second orthogonal NCI, realizing the bottom-up, three-stage construction of Pt(II)-metallacycle-based 2D HSAs. The resultant 2D HSAs are applied as dual-mode catalysis platforms, which are loaded with two different nanocatalysts, one promoting catalytic oxidation and the other promoting photocatalytic reduction.

Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) have numerous applications in various sectors, including pharmacology, nanomedicine, cancer therapy, radiotherapy, biotechnology and environment mitigation like removal of toxic metals from wastewater, photocatalytic degradation of toxic compounds, adsorption, and water splitting. The multifaceted applications of Pt NPs because of their ultra-fine structures, large surface area, tuned porosity, coordination-binding, and excellent physiochemical properties. The various types of nanohybrids (NHs) of Pt NPs can be fabricated by doping with different metal/metal oxide/polymer-based materials. There are several methods to synthesize platinum-based NHs, but biological processes are admirable because of green, economical, sustainable, and non-toxic. Due to the robust physicochemical and biological characteristics of platinum NPs, they are widely employed as nanocatalyst, antioxidant, antipathogenic, and anticancer agents. Indeed, Pt-based NHs are the subject of keen interest and substantial research area for biomedical and clinical applications. Hence, this review systematically studies antimicrobial, biological, and environmental applications of platinum and platinum-based NHs, predominantly for treating cancer and photo-thermal therapy. Applications of Pt NPs in nanomedicine and nano-diagnosis are also highlighted. Pt NPs-related nanotoxicity and the potential and opportunity for future nano-therapeutics based on Pt NPs are also discussed.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence is a noninvasive, highly sensitive, and high-resolution modality with great potential for in vivo imaging. Compared with "Always-On" probes, activatable NIR fluorescent probes with "Turn-Off/On" or "Ratiometric" fluorescent signals at target sites exhibit better signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), wherein enzymes are one of the ideal triggers for probe activation, which play vital roles in a variety of biological processes. In this review, we provide an overview of enzyme-activatable NIR fluorescent probes and concentrate on the design strategies and sensing mechanisms. We focus on the aggregation/dispersion state of fluorophores after the interaction of probes and enzymes and finally discuss the current challenges and provide some perspective ideas for the construction of enzyme-activatable NIR fluorescent probes.

Abstract
Metal agents have made incredible strides in preclinical research and clinical applications in recent years, but their short emission/absorption wavelengths continue to be a barrier to their distribution, therapeutic action, visual tracking, and efficacy evaluation. Nowadays, the near-infrared window (NIR, 650-1700 nm) provides a more accurate imaging and treatment option. Thus, there has been ongoing research focusing on developing multifunctional NIR metal agents for imaging and therapy that have deeper tissue penetration. The design, characteristics, bioimaging, and therapy of NIR metal agents are covered in this overview of papers and reports published to date. To start with, we focus on describing the structure, design strategies, and photophysical properties of metal agents from the NIR-I (650-1000 nm) to NIR-II (1000-1700 nm) region, in order of molecular metal complexes (MMCs), metal-organic complexes (MOCs), and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Next, the biomedical applications brought by these superior photophysical and chemical properties for more accurate imaging and therapy are discussed. Finally, we explore the challenges and prospects of each type of NIR metal agent for future biomedical research and clinical translation.

Abstract
As an emerging subset of organic complexes, metal complexes have garnered considerable attention owing to their outstanding structures, properties, and applications. In this content, metal-organic cages (MOCs) with defined shapes and sizes provide internal spaces to isolate water for guest molecules, which can be selectively captured, isolated, and released to achieve control over chemical reactions. Complex supramolecules are constructed by simulating the self-assembly behavior of the molecules or structures in nature. For this purpose, massive amounts of cavity-containing supramolecules, such as metal-organic cages (MOCs), have been extensively explored for a large variety of reactions with a high degree of reactivity and selectivity. Because sunlight and water are necessary for the process of photosynthesis, water-soluble metal-organic cages (WSMOCs) are ideal platforms for photo-responsive stimulation and photo-mediated transformation by simulating photosynthesis due to their defined sizes, shapes, and high modularization of metal centers and ligands. Therefore, the design and synthesis of WSMOCs with uncommon geometries embedded with functional building units is of immense importance for artificial photo-responsive stimulation and photo-mediated transformation. In this review, we introduce the general synthetic strategies of WSMOCs and their applications in this sparking field.

The present research aims to explore the in-vivo and in-vitro anticancer activity of two platinum complexes with 1,3-dimethyl pentyl glycine ligand (DMPG), [Pt(bpy)(13DMPG)]NO3 and [Pt(dach)(13DMPG)]NO3, against breast cancer cells. The present study was conducted to investigate the cytotoxic potential of these compounds (2-400 μM) compared to standard drugs (cisplatin, oxaliplatin, and carboplatin) on SKBR3 cells using the methyl thiazol-tetrazolium (MTT) assay. Furthermore, the gene expression changes of Bak, Bim, Bcl-2, Caspase-3, and Caspase-9 were carried out by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and flow cytometric analysis was performed to confirm the cell apoptosis in the presence of the compounds. For more validation, in-vivo anticancer activities of both compounds were investigated against breast transplanted tumors in the BALB/c mice model. The cytotoxic studies by MTT assay revealed the anti-proliferative potential of both derivatives. [Pt(dach)(13DMPG)]NO3 with an IC50 value of 15 μM, exhibited higher cytotoxicity against SKBR3 cells as compared to [Pt(bpy)(13DMPG)]NO3, oxaliplatin, and carboplatin. Based on the flow cytometry analysis, both derivatives demonstrated apoptotic effects. Also, real-time PCR analysis revealed an up-regulation of Bak, Bim, Bax, Caspases-3, and Caspase-9 genes and a significant reduction in Bcl-2 gene expression in treated cells with both compounds compared to the control group. In-vivo results validated in-vitro analysis and showed the anticancer activity of compounds against breast transplanted tumors in the BALB/c mice model. According to the results, [Pt(dach)(13DMPG)]NO3 displayed a significant anticancer activity.

Abstract
In view of the important physiological role of HSO3- and H2O2, it is of great significance to develop fluorescent probes to detect HSO3- and H2O2 in aqueous medium. We herein report a new fluorescent probe (E)-3-(2-(4-(1,2,2-triphenylvinyl)styryl)benzo [d]thiazol-3-ium-3-yl)propane-1-sulfonate (TPE-y) possessing benzothiazolium salt based on tetraphenylethene (TPE) moiety with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics. TPE-y can sequentially recognize HSO3- and H2O2 through colorimetric and fluorescence dual-channel response in HEPES (pH = 7.4, 1% DMSO) buffer solution, and exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity, a large Stokes shift (189 nm), as well as a wide applicable pH range. The detection limits of TPE-y and TPE-y-HSO3 for HSO3- and H2O2 are 3.52 μM and 0.15 μM, respectively. The recognition mechanism is verified by 1H NMR and HRMS methods. Furthermore, TPE-y can detect HSO3- in sugar samples, and can image exogenous HSO3- and H2O2 in living MCF-7 cells. TPE-y can relay detect HSO3- and H2O2, which is of great significance to maintain the redox balance in organisms.

Abstract
Different from common anti-tumor drugs, organoplatinum(II) metallacycles can integrate imaging and other therapeutic capabilities by incorporating corresponding functional donor ligands to enable potential applications in biomedicine. However, most of the emerging therapeutic agents not only show poor solubility and selectivity but also have serious side effects and unsatisfactory efficacy and encounter the tendency to develop drug resistance due to their single treatment model. Herein, an organoplatinum(II) metallacycle (PtM) was designed and synthesized using coordination-driven self-assembly via the combination of a metallic chemotherapy precursor and a reactive oxygen species generating organic precursor. The hydrophobic PtM molecules were encapsulated in the cavity of human heavy chain ferritin (HFn) during the reassembly of HFn to prepare the active targeting nanoagent HFn-PtM for use in chemo-photodynamic combination therapy. The HFn-PtM nanoagents exhibited excellent stability in buffer (pH from 5 to 7.2), alleviating the concern of drug leakage during circulation. A cellular uptake assay indicated that HFn-PtM could efficiently enter specific cells that overexpress the transferrin receptor 1. In vitro and in vivo anti-tumor investigations revealed that HFn-PtM exhibited excellent anti-tumor efficiency with negligible systemic toxicity. This work provides a strategy for the easy construction of multifunctional organoplatinum-based tumor-targeted drugs.

Abstract
The application of an exogenous polymer matrix to construct aggregation-induced emission (AIE) nanoprobes promotes the utility of AIE luminogens (AIEgens) in diagnosing brain diseases. However, the limited fluorescence (FL) and low active-targeting abilities of AIE-based nanoprobes impede their imaging application. Here, we employed endogenous albumin as an effective matrix to encapsulate AIEgens to enhance FL quantum yield (QY) and active-targeting ability. The albumin-consolidated strategy effectively inhibited the intramolecular vibration of AIEgens and enhanced endocytosis mediated by the gp60 receptor. The QYs of three kinds of albumin-based AIE nanoprobes with FL emissions ranging from the visible (400-650 nm) to the second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) region was at least 10% higher, and the tumor-targeting efficiency was ∼25% higher, compared with those of nanoprobes constructed by the exogenous polymer. Albumin-based AIE nanoprobes have achieved active-targeting NIR-II imaging of brain tumors and cerebrovascular imaging with a high signal-to-background ratio (SBR, ∼90) and high resolution (∼70 μm) in mouse models. Therefore, the albumin-based AIE nanoprobes will enable FL imaging-guided surgery of brain tumors and cerebral ischemia, which will improve surgical efficacy to prevent recurrence and side effects.

Abstract
The field of Bioinorganic Supramolecular Chemistry is an emerging research area including metal-based supramolecules resulting from coordination-driven self-assembly (CDSA), whereby metal ions and organic ligands can be easily linked by metal-ligand bonds via Lewis' acid/base interactions. The focus of this 'In a Nutshell' review will be on the family of supramolecular coordination complexes, discrete entities formed by CDSA, which have recently captured widespread attention as a new class of versatile multifunctional materials with broad biological applications including molecular recognition, biosensing, therapy, imaging and drug delivery. Herein, we provide a summary of the state-of-the-art use of these systems in biomedicine, with some selected representative examples, as well as our visions of the challenges and possible directions in the field.

Abstract
Ruthenium (Ru) complexes are developed as latent emissive photosensitizers for cancer and pathogen photodiagnosis and therapy. Nevertheless, most existing Ru complexes are limited as photosensitizers in terms of short excitation and emission wavelengths. Herein, we present an emissive Ru(II) metallacycle (herein referred to as 1) that is excited by 808-nm laser and emits at a wavelength of ∼1,000 nm via coordination-driven self-assembly. Metallacycle 1 exhibits good optical penetration (∼7 mm) and satisfactory reactive oxygen species production properties. Furthermore, 1 shows broad-spectrum antibacterial activity (including against drug-resistant Escherichia coli) as well as low cytotoxicity to normal mammalian cells. In vivo studies reveal that 1 is employed in precise, second near-infrared biomedical window fluorescent imaging-guided, photo-triggered treatments in Staphylococcus aureus-infected mice models, with negligible side effects. This work thus broads the applications of supramolecular photosensitizers through the strategy of lengthening their wavelengths.

Abstract
Enzymes, as a kind of biomacromolecules, play an important role in many physiological processes and relate directly to various diseases. Developing an efficient detection method for enzyme activity is important to achieve early diagnosis of enzyme-relevant diseases and high throughput screening of potential enzyme-relevant drugs. Time-resolved luminescence assay provide a high accuracy and signal-to-noise ratios detection methods for enzyme activity, which has been widely used in high throughput screening of enzyme-relevant drugs and diagnosis of enzyme-relevant diseases. Inspired by these advantages, various responsive probes based on metal complexes and metal-free organic compounds have been developed for time-resolved bioimaging and biosensing of enzyme activity owing to their long luminescence lifetimes, high quantum yields and photostability. In this review, we comprehensively reviewed metal complex- and metal-free organic compound-based responsive probes applied to detect enzyme activity through time-resolved imaging, including their design strategies and sensing principles. Current challenges and future prospects in this rapidly growing field are also discussed.

Herein, an second nearinfrared window (NIR-II) emissive Ru(II) metallacycle (Ru1000, λem = 1000 nm) via coordination-driven self-assembly is reported, which holds remarkable deep-tissue imaging capability (≈6 mm) and satisfactory chemo-phototherapeutic performance. In vitro results indicate Ru1000 displays promising cellular uptake, good cancer-cell selectivity, attractive anti-metastasis properties, and remarkable anticancer activity against various cancer cells, including cisplatin-resistant A549 cells (IC50 = 3.4 × 10-6 m vs 92.8 × 10-6 m for cisplatin). The antitumor mechanism could be attributed to Ru1000-induced lysosomal membrane damage and mitochondrial-mediated apoptotic cell death. Furthermore, Ru1000 also allows the high-performance in vivo NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided chemo-phototherapy against A549 tumors. This work may provide a paradigm for the development of long-wavelength emissive metallacycle-based agents for future biomedicine.

Abstract
In this study, we designed an effective nanoplatform to improve the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of porphyrins. Combining a porphyrin-based metallacage (PM), hyaluronidase (HAase) and DSPE-mPEG2000 together, the nanoparticle (PM@HAase-mPEG) showed enhanced PDT efficacy. The PM improved the stability of the porphyrin, avoided its aggregation and provided cavities to concentrate oxygen molecules, which was beneficial for enhancing PDT. HAase degraded HA to increase the intracellular accumulation of nanoparticles, normalized blood vessels and relieved hypoxia in tumors. PM@HAase-mPEG inhibited the growth of tumors in a 4T1 mouse model by the generated singlet oxygen with excellent PDT efficacy. This study resolved the problems of the instability of PSs, less cellular accumulation of drugs, and tumor hypoxia that limited the anti-tumor application of PDT.

Abstract
Although Ru(II)-based agents are expected to be promising candidates for substituting Pt-drug, their in vivo biomedical applications are still limited by the short excitation/emission wavelengths and unsatisfactory therapeutic efficiency. Herein, we rationally design a Ru(II) metallacycle with excitation at 808 nm and emission over 1000 nm, namely Ru1085, which holds deep optical penetration (up to 6 mm) and enhanced chemo-phototherapy activity. In vitro studies indicate that Ru1085 exhibits prominent cell uptake and desirable anticancer capability against various cancer cell lines, especially for cisplatin-resistant A549 cells. Further studies reveal Ru1085 induces mitochondria-mediated apoptosis along with S and G2/M phase cell cycle arrest. Finally, Ru1085 shows precise NIR-II fluorescence imaging guided and long-term monitored chemo-phototherapy against A549 tumor with minimal side effects. We envision that the design of long-wavelength emissive metallacycle will offer emerging opportunities of metal-based agents for in vivo biomedical applications. Ruthenium (Ru(II)) compounds are of interest as platinum drug replacements but have suffered from suboptimal therapeutic efficiency. Here, the authors design a Ru(II) metallacycle with NIR excitation and emission wavelengths and demonstrate application for deep tumour imaging and chemo-photo therapy.

Abstract
CO-releasing molecule-3 (CORM-3), mainly metal carbonyl compounds, is widely used as experimental tools to deliver CO, a biological "gasotransmitter", in mammalian systems. CORM-3 is also proposed as a potential new antimicrobial agent, which kills bacteria effectively and rapidly in vitro and in animal models. Organelle-targeting therapy, as a highly effective therapeutic strategy with little toxic and side effects, has important research significance and development prospects. Therefore, the development of effective methods for detecting and tracking CORM-3 at the subcellular level has important implications. In this paper, an easily available Golgi-targetable fluorescent probe (Golgi-Nap-CORM-3) was proposed for CORM-3 detection. In the probe Golgi-Nap-CORM-3, the phenyl sulfonamide group was selected as the Golgi-targetable unit, naphthalimide dye was chosen as a fluorophore, and the nitro group was selected as a CORM-3-responsive unit. Golgi-Nap-CORM-3 shows a CORM-3-reponsive increase of fluorescence emission at 520 nm. Using the excellent probe, the change of CORM-3 in HeLa cells, HepG2 cells, and zebrafish is successfully monitored. This study demonstrates very important information for the study of CORM-3 in vivo systems.

Abstract
Anti-tuberculosis fixed-dose combinatorial formulation (FDCs) is an effective drug for the treatment of tuberculosis. As a compound medicine, its efficacy is based on the comprehensive action of multiple main ingredients. If the content of an active ingredient is insufficient, not only will it reduce the curative effect, but it also causes patients to develop drug resistance and leads to the evolution of drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis, which hamper the treatment of the disease. Thus accurate detection of the contents of active components in the anti-tuberculosis FDC is the key link of its quality control. For the first time, convolutional neural networks (CNN), one of the most popular deep learning methods, is adopted to develop a quantitative calibration model based on terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) for the accurate detection of the content of each active component in the anti-tuberculosis FDCs. For comparison with CNN, partial least squares regression (PLSR) was also introduced to build a reference quantitative calibration model. For CNN modeling, the raw THz spectral is fed to the model directly; While for PLSR, prior to the spectrum feeding to the model, the raw spectral data are processed by multiple different combinations of preprocessing. Experimental and simulation results demonstrate that although preprocessing techniques can improve the prediction performance of PLSR, its prediction capabilities is still inferior to CNN based on raw spectrum. Therefore, for the quantitative analysis of the content of each active component in the anti-tuberculosis FDCs, CNN appears to be an ideal modeling method.

Abstract
Mitochondria, as vital energy supplying organelles, play important roles in cellular metabolism, which are closely related with mitochondrial pH (∼8.0). In this work, a novel multimodal fluorescent probe was employed for ratiometric and colorimetric detection of pH. The probe is designed to work by controlling benzothiazole phenol-hemicyanine system as the interaction site and hemicyanine connected by conjugate bonds as the mitochondrial targeting, which also could make the fluorescence of probe red-shifted. This system results in a perfect ratiometric fluorescent response, whose emission changed from red to blue under pH 2.0-10.0, having a broad linear range (pH = 3.0-10.0). And the marked colour change (light yellow to deep purple via naked eye under pH 2.0-11.0) could be used to construct the test strip colorimetry and smartphone APP detection method, realizing the fast, portable, and accurate detection of pH in vitro and environment. Besides, the probe owns the characteristics of easy loading, high selectivity and staining ability of mitochondria, and low cytotoxicity, thereby allowing imaging of pH values and real-time monitor the subcellular mitochondria pH changes caused by drugs in living cells. It thus could be used to monitor the organ-specific dynamics related to transitions between pathological and physiological states.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is one of the greatest threats to public health. In vivo real-time monitoring and effective treatment of infected sites through non-invasive techniques, remain a challenge. Herein, we designed a PtII metallacycle-based supramolecular photosensitizer through the host-guest interaction between a pillar[5]arene-modified metallacycle and 1-butyl-4-[4-(diphenylamino)styryl]pyridinium. Leveraging the aggregation-induced emission supramolecular photosensitizer, we improved fluorescence performance and antimicrobial photodynamic inactivation. In vivo studies revealed that it displayed precise fluorescence tracking of S. aureus-infected sites, and in situ performed image-guided efficient PDI of S. aureus without noticeable side effects. These results demonstrated that metallacycle combined with host-guest chemistry could provide a paradigm for the development of powerful photosensitizers for biomedicine.

Abstract
Ruthenium complexes are emerging as potential complements to platinum drugs. They also show promise as photo-diagnostic and therapeutic agents. However, most ruthenium species studied to date as potential drugs are characterized by short excitation/emission wavelengths. This limits their applicability for deep-tissue fluorescence imaging and light-based therapeutic treatments. Here, we report a Ru(ii) metallacycle (Ru1100) that emits at ≥1000 nm. This system possesses excellent deep-tissue penetration capability (∼7 mm) and displays good chemo-phototherapeutic performance. In vitro studies revealed that Ru1100 benefits from good cellular uptake and produces a strong anticancer response against several cancer cell lines, including a cisplatin-resistant A549 cell line (IC50 = 1.6 μM vs. 51.4 μM for cisplatin). On the basis of in vitro studies, it is concluded that Ru1100 exerts its anticancer action by regulating cell cycle progression and triggering cancer cell apoptosis. In vivo studies involving the use of a nanoparticle formulation served to confirm that Ru1100 allows for high-performance NIR-II fluorescence imaging-guided precise chemo-phototherapy in the case of A549 tumour mouse xenografts with no obvious side effects. This work thus provides a paradigm for the development of long-wavelength emissive supramolecular theranostic agents based on ruthenium. Along-wavelength emissive Ru(ii) metallacycle chemo-phototheranostic was prepared via self-assembly that exhibits excellent photostability, deep-tissue penetration capability, and promising chemo-phototherapeutic performance in vitro and in vivo.![]()

Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is a special kind of reactive oxygen species, which plays an important role in resisting pathogen invasion and maintaining cell redox balance and other physiological processes. In addition, HClO is commonly used in daily life as a bleaching and disinfectant agent. Its excessive use can also lead to death of water animals and serious respiratory and skin diseases in humans. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a quick and convenient tool for detecting HClO in the environment and organisms. In this paper, we utilize the specific reaction of HClO with dimethylthiocarbamate to develop a novel naphthalene derivative fluorescent probe (BNA-HClO), it was designed and synthesized by using 6-(2-benzothiazolyl)-2-naphthol as the fluorophore and N,N-dimethylthiocarbamate as the recognition group. BNA-HClO shows large fluorescence enhancement (374-fold), high sensitivity (a detection limit of 37.56 nM), rapid response (<30 s), strong anti-interference ability and good specificity in vitro. Based on the outstanding in vitro sensing capability of BNA-HClO, it has been successfully used to detect spiked HClO in tap water, medical wastewater and fetal bovine serum with good recovery. BNA-HClO has also been successfully used as a portable test strip for the in situ semi-quantitative detection of HClO in tap water solutions. In addition, BNA-HClO can successfully enable the detection and imaging of exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells. This work provides a simple and effective tool for the detection and imaging of HClO in environmental and biological systems, and provides some theoretical guidance for future exploration of biological and pathological studies related to HClO. A new fluorescence probe was successfully applied to test strips and imaging analysis of exogenous and endogenous hypochlorite in living cells.![]()

Photostable Red-Emitting Fluorescent Rhein-Magnesium(Ⅱ) Coordination Polymer Nanodot-Based Nanostructures With a Large Stokes Shift for Imaging Mitochondria in Cancer Cell. Front Oncol 2021; 11:758268. [PMID: 34760704 PMCID: PMC8573231 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.758268] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Accepted: 10/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The mitochondria play a significant role in many cellular processes and are recognized as one of the most important therapeutic targets in cancer. Direct long-term imaging of the mitochondria is very crucial for treating cancer. However, the development of a red-emitting mitochondrial probe with a large Stokes shift and photostability remains highly challenging. Fluorescent metal complexes with superior physicochemical property have emerged as new fluorescent nanomaterials due to their increasing advantages in bioimaging. Herein, a luminescent pitaya-type nanostructure based on rhein-magnesium(II) (Rh-Mg) coordination polymer nanodots was used as a fluorescent nanoprobe to selectively image the mitochondria benefiting from the introduction of triphenylphosphine. The as-prepared Rh-Mg nanodot-based nanoprobe showed red emission peaking at 620 nm, a large Stokes shift (100 nm), and excellent photostability as compared with commercial mitochondrial probes. Due to these extraordinary features, this fluorescent nanoprobe was successfully used for mitochondrial targeting imaging of live cancer cell line Neuro-2a (mouse neuroblastoma) and BV2 microglial cells. Therefore, our results pave a new way for the design of fluorescent nanoprobes for imaging mitochondria in cancer cell.

Abstract
As one type of reactive oxygen species (ROS), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a key role in regulating a variety of cellular functions. Herein, a fluorescent probe N-Py-BO was well designed and synthesized and its ability for detecting H2O2 by fluorescence intensity was evaluated. In the design, the arylboronate ester group was acted as a reaction site for H2O2. Upon reaction with H2O2 under physiological conditions, the boronate moiety in the probe was oxidized, followed by detachment from the probe and as a result, a "turn-on" fluorescence response for H2O2 was acquired. Due to the D-A structure formation between N,N'-dimethylaminobenzene and the -CN group and the linkage by thiophene and C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bonds to increase the conjugate length, this probe showed a remarkable red shift of emission wavelength (650 nm) as well as a large Stokes shift (214 nm). An excellent linear relation with concentrations of H2O2 ranging from 2.0 to 200 μM and a good selectivity over other biological species were obtained. Importantly, taking advantage of the low toxicity and good biocompatibility, the developed probe was successfully applied to monitoring and imaging H2O2 and its level fluctuation in living cells, which provided a powerful tool for evaluation of cellular oxidative stress and understanding the pathophysiological process of H2O2-related diseases.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. Early diagnosis has great significance for the survival of patients with lung cancer. In this paper, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrics was used to study the serum samples from patients with lung cancer and healthy people. The results of spectral band area comparison showed that the concentrations of protein, lipid and nucleic acids molecules in serum of patients with lung cancer were increased compared with those in healthy people. The original spectra were preprocessed to improve the accuracy of principal component regression (PCR) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) models. PLS-DA results for first derivative spectral data in nucleic acids (1250-1000cm-1) band showed 80% sensitivity, 91.89% specificity and 87.10% accuracy with highR c 2 of 0.8949 andR v 2 of 0.8153, low RMSEC of 0.3136 and RMSEV of 0.4180. It is shown that ATR-FTIR spectroscopy combined with chemometrics might be developed as a simple method for clinical screening and diagnosis of lung cancer.

Abstract
Optoacoustic (photoacoustic) imaging has demonstrated versatile applications in biomedical research, visualizing the disease pathophysiology and monitoring the treatment effect in an animal model, as well as toward applications in the clinical setting. Given the complex disease mechanism, multimodal imaging provides important etiological insights with different molecular, structural, and functional readouts in vivo. Various multimodal optoacoustic molecular imaging approaches have been applied in preclinical brain imaging studies, including optoacoustic/fluorescence imaging, optoacoustic imaging/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), optoacoustic imaging/MRI/Raman, optoacoustic imaging/positron emission tomography, and optoacoustic/computed tomography. There is a rapid development in molecular imaging contrast agents employing a multimodal imaging strategy for pathological targets involved in brain diseases. Many chemical dyes for optoacoustic imaging have fluorescence properties and have been applied in hybrid optoacoustic/fluorescence imaging. Nanoparticles are widely used as hybrid contrast agents for their capability to incorporate different imaging components, tunable spectrum, and photostability. In this review, we summarize contrast agents including chemical dyes and nanoparticles applied in multimodal optoacoustic brain imaging integrated with other modalities in small animals, and provide outlook for further research.

Abstract
In this study, we report the preparation of new mono-charged benzoporphyrin complexes by reaction of the appropriate neutral benzoporphyrin with (2,2'-bipyridine)dichloroplatinum(II) and of the analogs' derivatives synthesized through alkylation of the neutral scaffold with iodomethane. All derivatives were incorporated into polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) micelles. The ability of the resultant formulations to generate reactive oxygen species was evaluated, mainly the singlet oxygen formation. Then, the capability of the PVP formulations to act as photosensitizers against bladder cancer cells was assessed. Some of the studied formulations were the most active photosensitizers causing a decrease in HT-1376 cells' viability. This creates an avenue to further studies related to bladder cancer cells.
