Abstract
As a crucial endogenous reactive oxygen species, hypochlorous acid (HClO) plays an indispensable role in numerous physiological and pathological processes. Additionally, it serves as a biomarker closely associated with inflammation and liver injury. The utilization of near-infrared fluorescence probes has surged in recent years for live biological imaging, owing to their minimal tissue damage and potent tissue penetration capabilities. In this work, a novel near-infrared fluorescence probe MB-HPD was synthesized to sensitively detect HClO. Probe MB-HPD exhibits remarkable selectivity, high sensitivity (14.3 nM), and rapid response towards HClO (20 s). Probe MB-HPD has demonstrated successful application in the imaging of HClO within cells and zebrafish. Remarkably, it has proven to be effective for detecting HClO within environmental samples, as well as imaging HClO in mice models of arthritis and APAP-induced liver injury. These findings indicate the broad applicability of probe MB-HPD, offering a promising avenue for designing highly selective near-infrared fluorescence probes suitable for real-time HClO monitoring.

Abstract
The reactive nitrogen species (RNS) in lysosomes play a major role during the regulation of lysosomal microenvironment. Nitroxyl (HNO) belongs to active nitrogen species (RNS) and is becoming a potential diagnostic and therapeutic biomarker. However, the complex synthesis routes of HNO in biosystem always hinder the exact determination of HNO in living cells. Here, a rhodamine-based fluorescent probe used to determine nitroxyl (HNO) in lysosomes was constructed and synthesized. 2-(Diphenylphosphino)benzoate was utilized as the sensing unit for HNO and morpholine was chose as the targeting group for lysosome. Before the addition of HNO, the probe displayed a spirolactone structure and almost no fluorescence was found. After the addition of HNO, the probe existed as a conjugated xanthene form and an intense green fluorescence was observed. The fluorescent probe possessed fast response (3 min) and high selectivity for HNO. Furthermore, fluorescence intensity of the probe linearly related with the HNO concentration in the range of 6.0 × 10-8 to 6.0 × 10-5 mol L-1. The detection limit was found to be 1.87 × 10-8 mol L-1 for HNO. Moreover, the probe could selectively targeted lysosome with excellent biocompatibility and had been effectually utilized to recognize exogenous HNO in A549 cells.

Abstract
To maximize therapeutic effects and minimize unwanted effects, the interest in drug targeting to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or Golgi apparatus (GA) has been recently growing because two organelles are distributing hubs of cellular building/signaling components (e.g., proteins, lipids, Ca2+) to other organelles and the plasma membrane. Their structural or functional damages induce organelle stress (i.e., ER or GA stress), and their aggravation is strongly related to diseases (e.g., cancers, liver diseases, brain diseases). Many efforts have been developed to image (patho)physiological functions (e.g., oxidative stress, protein/lipid-related processing) and characteristics (e.g., pH, temperature, biothiols, reactive oxygen species) in the target organelles and to deliver drugs for organelle disruption using organelle-targeting moieties. Therefore, this review will overview the structure, (patho)physiological functions/characteristics, and related diseases of the organelles of interest. Future direction on ER or GA targeting will be discussed by understanding current strategies and investigations on targeting, imaging/sensing, and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Various signal molecules mediate complex physiological processes collectively in the Golgi. However, most currently accessible probes are questionable in illuminating the functions of these reactive species in Golgi because of the inability to irradiate these probes only at the desired Golgi location, which compromises specificity and accuracy. In this study, we rationally designed the first photocontrollable and Golgi-targeted fluorescent probe to in situ visualize the Golgi alkaline phosphatase (ALP). The designed probe with natural yellow fluorescence can provide access into Golgi and monitor the exact timing of accumulation in Golgi. On-demand photoactivation at only the desired Golgi location affords a significant emission response to ALP with illuminating red fluorescence at 710 nm. Through the photocontrollable fluorescence responsiveness to ALP, precise spatiotemporal recognition of Golgi ALP fluctuations is successfully performed. With this probe, for the first time, we revealed the Golgi ALP levels during cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI), which will further facilitate and complement the comprehensive exploration of ALP kinetics during physiological and pathological processes.

Abstract
Due to the serious harm of depression to human health and quality of life, an accurate diagnosis of depression is warranted. For the complex etiology of depression, a single biomarker diagnostic method often leads to misdiagnosis. As noradrenaline and HClO are closely related to depression, a "dual-locked" fluorescence probe R-NE-HClO for diagnosing of depression through the simultaneous detection of noradrenaline and HClO was designed and synthesized. Fluorescence of R-NE-HClO can only be restored in the presence of both noradrenaline and HClO. The probe demonstrates excellent selectivity for noradrenaline and HClO and low cytotoxicity in cell imaging experiments. It is to be observed that we successfully applied the probe to accurately detect depressed cells which provides a possible tool for diagnosing depression.

Abstract
Tumor metastasis is an intricate multistep process regulated via various proteins and enzymes modified and secreted by swollen Golgi apparatus in tumor cells. Thus, Golgi complex is considered as an important target for the remedy of metastasis. Currently, Golgi targeting technologies are mostly employed in Golgi-specific fluorescent probes for diagnosis, but their applications in therapy are rarely reported. Herein, we proposed a prodrug (INR) that can target and destroy the Golgi apparatus, which consisted of indomethacin (IMC) as the Golgi targeting moiety and retinoic acid (RA), a Golgi disrupting agent. The linker between IMC and RA was designed as a hypoxia-responsive nitroaromatic structure, which ensured the release of the prototype drugs in the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. Furthermore, INR could be assembled with pirarubicin (THP), an anthracycline, to form a carrier-free nanoparticle (NP) by emulsion-solvent evaporation method. A small amount of mPEG2000-DSPE was added to shield the positive charges and improve the stability of the nanoparticle to obtain PEG-modified nanoparticle (PNP). It was proved that INR released the prototype drugs in tumor cells and hypoxia promoted the release. The Golgi destructive effect of RA in INR was amplified owing to the Golgi targeting ability of IMC, and IMC also inhibited the protumor COX-2/PGE2 signaling. Finally, PNP exhibited excellent curative efficacy on 4T1 primary tumor and its pulmonary and hepatic metastasis. The small molecular therapeutic prodrug targeting Golgi apparatus could be adapted to multifarious drug delivery systems and disease models, which expanded the application of Golgi targeting tactics in disease treatment.

Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HClO), a highly reactive oxygen species, has important effects on human health. High selectivity and sensitivity remain challenges of fluorescent probes for detection of ClO- with a large Stokes shift. This work designed and synthesized a novel phenothiazine-based fluorescent probe TF which can detect ClO- by colorimetric and fluorescent dual signals. TF displayed turn-on fluorescence effect toward ClO- with high selectivity (≥ 28-folds) and sensitivity (LOD = 0.472 μM), fast response time (< 1 min) and large Stokes shift (150 nm) in PBS (pH = 7.4, 40% DMSO). Meanwhile, TF can visualize ClO- on the mung bean sprouts model and apply as testing strips for portable and rapid detecting ClO- by the naked eyes. A phenothiazine-based fluorescent probe with large Stokes shift was synthesized and its responding rapidly ability to detect ClO- was studied.

Abstract
Neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies have made significant progress in cancer treatment. However, tumor adjuvant therapy still faces challenges due to the intrinsic heterogeneity of cancer, genomic instability, and the formation of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Functional materials possess unique biological properties such as long circulation times, tumor-specific targeting, and immunomodulation. The combination of functional materials with natural substances and nanotechnology has led to the development of smart biomaterials with multiple functions, high biocompatibilities, and negligible immunogenicities, which can be used for precise cancer treatment. Recently, subcellular structure-targeting functional materials have received particular attention in various biomedical applications including the diagnosis, sensing, and imaging of tumors and drug delivery. Subcellular organelle-targeting materials can precisely accumulate therapeutic agents in organelles, considerably reduce the threshold dosages of therapeutic agents, and minimize drug-related side effects. This review provides a systematic and comprehensive overview of the research progress in subcellular organelle-targeted cancer therapy based on functional nanomaterials. Moreover, it explains the challenges and prospects of subcellular organelle-targeting functional materials in precision oncology. The review will serve as an excellent cutting-edge guide for researchers in the field of subcellular organelle-targeted cancer therapy.

Abstract
Hypochlorite (ClO-) is an important bioactive molecule of living system which plays essential roles in many physiological and pathological processes. There is no doubt that the biological roles of ClO- depend highly on the concentration of ClO-. Unfortunately, the relationship between the concentration of ClO- and the biological process is unclear. Toward this purpose, in this work we addressed a core challenge for developing a powerful fluorescence tool for monitoring a wide concentration change (0-14 eq.) of ClO- via two distinct detection manners. The probe displayed fluorescence variation (red to green) upon addition of ClO- (0-4 eq.) and the color of test medium changed from red to colorless witnessed by the naked eyes. Surprisingly, in the presence of higher concentration of ClO- (4-14 eq.), the probe displayed another fluorescent signal change from green to blue. After demonstrating the excellent sensing properties of the probe with ClO- in vitro, it was successfully used to imaging different concentration of ClO- in living cells. We expected that the probe could act as an exciting chemistry tool for imaging of ClO- concentration-dependent oxidative stress event in biological system.
