Abstract
The processes of apoptosis and inflammatory responses, which are defensive strategies used by cells to confront external substances, can give rise to diverse diseases when prolonged or disrupted, such as cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. Here we engineered a live-cell imaging fluorescent probe for nitric oxide (NO) based on naphthalimide and o-phenylenediamine, enabling the sensitive detection of NO in cancer cells and thereby live-monitoring of the doxorubicin-induced apoptosis and lipopolysaccharide-triggered inflammation reactions. Importantly, we found that the level of released NO can sensitively indicate the early stages of both cellular inflammatory responses and apoptotic processes. This suggested that cellular NO in fact behaves as a new class of signaling molecule for inflammatory responses and apoptosis processes, providing a potent tool for live-monitoring cellular physiological reactions.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are small reactive molecules derived from elements in the air─oxygen and nitrogen. They are produced in biological systems to mediate fundamental aspects of cellular signaling but must be very tightly balanced to prevent indiscriminate damage to biological molecules. Small molecule probes can transmute the specific nature of each reactive oxygen and nitrogen species into an observable luminescent signal (or even an acoustic wave) to offer sensitive and selective imaging in living cells and whole animals. This review focuses specifically on small molecule probes for superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, nitric oxide, and peroxynitrite that provide a luminescent or photoacoustic signal. Important background information on general photophysical phenomena, common probe designs, mechanisms, and imaging modalities will be provided, and then, probes for each analyte will be thoroughly evaluated. A discussion of the successes of the field will be presented, followed by recommendations for improvement and a future outlook of emerging trends. Our objectives are to provide an informative, useful, and thorough field guide to small molecule probes for reactive oxygen and nitrogen species as well as important context to compare the ecosystem of chemistries and molecular scaffolds that has manifested within the field.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important signal molecule in biological systems and is correlated with many physiological processes and pathological diseases. To date, numerous fluorescent probes based on o-diamino aromatics have been designed and synthesized for NO detection utilizing the principle of photoinduced electron transfer (PET). However, the underlying PET mechanism has rarely been validated, and a systematic computational study on the photophysical properties is urgently desired. In this study, we used a theoretical protocol to comparatively investigate the sensing mechanism, photophysical properties and protonation effects of two emblematic probes NINO and PYSNO in aqueous solution, which combines a polarizable continuum model (PCM), time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) and thermal vibration correlation function formalism (TVCF). Our findings reveal that the weak emission of NINO is due to activated PET with negative driving energy and blocked fluorescence with significant charge separation. In contrast, the poor luminescence of PYSNO is caused by the facilitated non-radiative dissipation, even though the fluorescence emission remains unobstructed. Although NINO has been successfully used in two-photon microscopy for detecting NO, we suggest that PYSNO possesses a superior two-photon absorption (TPA) cross section in the near-infrared region. The protonation effects suggest that both probes can function effectively in practical acidic lysosomal environments. Our study opens a new avenue for understanding the mechanism and predicting the properties of two-photon fluorescent probes for NO detection, thus aiding the rational design of efficient fluorescent sensors.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in the regulation of the immune, cardiovascular and nervous systems. Consequently, being able to monitor and quantify intracellular NO levels would provide a greater understanding of the implications of this molecule in the different biological processes, including, for example, in cancer. Here, we report a broadly applicable two-photon excitable fluorescent nanoprobe able to detect and potentially quantify NO levels in an extensive range of cellular environments. The nanoprobe consists of a thiolated photoinduced electron transfer-based two=photon fluorescent probe attached onto the surface of 2.4 ± 0.7 nm gold nanoparticles (DANPY-NO@AuNPs). The nanoprobe, which can be synthesised in a reproducible manner and exhibits great stability when stored at room temperature, is able to selectively detect NO in solution, with a dynamic range up to 150 μM, and at pH values of biological relevance. DANPY-NO@AuNPs were able to selectively detect endogenous NO in RAW264.7γ NO- macrophages and THP-1 human leukemic cells; and endogenous and exogenous NO in endothelial cells. The nanoprobe accumulated in the acidic organelles of the tested cell lines showing negligible toxicity. Importantly, DANPY-NO@AuNPs showed potential to quantify intracellular NO concentrations in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. The biological evaluation of the nanoprobe was undertaken using confocal laser scanning (images and intracellular emission spectra) and multiphoton microscopies, and flow cytometry. Based on their excellent sensitivity and stability, and outstanding versatility, DANPY-NO@AuNPs can be applied for the spatiotemporal monitoring of in vitro and in vivo NO levels.

Abstract
Integrating the imaging techniques of near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) and photoacoustic (PA) can make up for each other and provide more useful medical information. Ratiometric imaging activated by disease-associated biomarkers can further augment imaging specificity. However, very few studies have employed the NIRF/PA dual-modal ratiometric imaging to improve the accuracy and specificity of disease diagnosis to date. In this paper, we present the synthesis of a nitric oxide (NO)-activated ratiometric NIRF/PA dual-modal nanoprobe RAPNP for in vivo NO imaging. The ratiometric imaging function was achieved jointly by a NO/acidity-responsive molecule DTP-BTDA and a nonresponsive fluorophore DTP-BBTD. In these fluorophores, the dithienopyrrole (DTP) moiety had strong electron-donating ability and imparted strong intramolecular charge transfer and relatively long emission wavelengths. The BTDA moiety in DTP-BTDA could be rapidly oxidized by NO under weak acidic environments, achieving the NIRF and PA signal activation. By using RAPNP as a contrast agent, we achieved the ratiometric detection of the endogenous NO in inflammatory bowel disease by NIRF/PA dual-modal imaging. This work provides the first case of the NIRF/PA dual-signal ratiometric probe for the real-time detection of NO in vivo.

Abstract
Free radical generation plays a key role in viral infections. While free radicals have an antimicrobial effect on bacteria or fungi, their interplay with viruses is complicated and varies greatly for different types of viruses as well as different radical species. In some cases, radical generation contributes to the defense against the viruses and thus reduces the viral load. In other cases, radical generation induces mutations or damages the host tissue and can increase the viral load. This has led to antioxidants being used to treat viral infections. Here we discuss the roles that radicals play in virus pathology. Furthermore, we critically review methods that facilitate the detection of free radicals in vivo or in vitro in viral infections.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is involved in many biological processes affecting the cardiovascular, nervous and immune systems. Intracellular NO can be monitored using fluorescent probes in combination with fluorescence imaging techniques. Most of the currently available NO fluorescent molecular probes are excited via one-photon excitation using UV or Vis light, which results in poor penetration and high photodamage to living tissues. Here, we report a two-photon fluorescent molecular probe, DANPY-NO, able to detect NO in live cells. The probe consists of an o-phenylenediamine linked to a naphthalimide core; and operates via photoinduced electron transfer. DANPY-NO exhibits good sensitivity (LOD of 77.8 nM) and high selectivity towards NO, and is stable over a broad range of pHs. The probe targeted acidic organelles within macrophages and endothelial cells, and demonstrated enhanced photostability over a commercially available NO probe. DANPY-NO was used to selectively detect endogenous NO in RAW264.7ϒ NO- macrophages, THP-1 human leukemic cells, primary mouse (bone marrow-derived) macrophages and endothelial cells. The probe was also able to detect exogenous NO in endothelial cells and distinguish between increasing concentrations of NO. The NO detection was evidenced using confocal laser scanning and two-photon microscopies, and flow cytometry. Further evidence was obtained by recording the changes in the intracellular fluorescence emission spectrum of the probe. Importantly, the probe displayed negligible toxicity to the analysed biological samples. The excellent sensitivity, selectivity, stability and versatility of DANPY-NO confirm its potential for in vitro and in vivo imaging of NO.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a crucial neurotransmitter participating in many biological processes via nitrosylation reaction. NO produced in diverse subcellular regions also regulates the function of cells in different manners. A Golgi apparatus is rich in nitric oxide synthase and may serve as a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, due to the lack of an effective tool, it is difficult to reveal the relationship between Golgi-NO and AD. Herein, we report Golgi-NO as the first Golgi-targeted fluorescent probe for sensing and imaging NO in the Golgi apparatus. The probe is designed and synthesized by incorporating 4-sulfamoylphenylamide as a Golgi-targeted moiety to 6-carboxyrhodamine B, generating a fluorophore of Golgi-RhB with modifiable carboxyl, which is then combined with the NO recognition moiety of o-diaminobenzene. The probe shows superior analytical performance including accurate Golgi-targeted ability and high selectivity for NO. Moreover, using the probe, we disclose a significant increase of NO in Golgi apparatus in the AD model. This study provides a competent tool for studying the function and nitrosylation of NO in the Golgi apparatus in related diseases.

Abstract
Quinoline derivatives are frequently found in natural products and biologically active compounds, however, construction of quinoline fused polyheterocycles is the challenging goal in synthetic organic chemistry. In this regard, quinolinium salts meet the demand to a great level, as they can be synthesized readily and employed effectively for the rapid construction of condensed heterocyclic core. The present review focuses on recent (2015-2021) applications of different quinolinium salts that react with suitable partners to access diverse annulated products. Most of the reactions discussed here involve easily available starting materials, operationally simple, high atom efficiency and environmentally benign. Mechanistic aspects of representative transformations have also been highlighted for better understanding of reaction pathway.

Peroxynitrite, a transient reactive oxygen species (ROS), is believed to play a deleterious role in physiological processes. Herein, we report a two-photon ratiometric fluorescent probe that selectively reacts with peroxynitrite yielding a >200-fold change upon reaction. The probe effectively visualized fluctuations in peroxynitrite generation by arginase 1 in vivo and in vitro. This provides evidence that arginase 1 is a critical regulator of peroxynitrite.

Abstract
Light-activatable nitric oxide (NO) donors have become of interest in the recent years. They produce NO when illuminated by light, which enables the control of its local concentration and is promising for biomedical applications. Several successful prototypes of photodonors have been published, but further research is needed to improve their properties such as water-solubility, activation wavelength, biocompatibility etc. One of major challenges on this way is to evaluate the efficiency of NO generation. Several methods may be used to track NO, including spin traps, specific electrodes and fluorescence-based probes. We have studied the applicability of well-known fluorescent reporter, diaminorhodamine (DAR-2), for the evaluation of NO production by photodonors. Our results indicate that DAR-2 can be used for the quantification of NO photorelease if this process is not accompanied by the singlet oxygen formation. Otherwise the oxidation of probe results in huge fluorescence increase, which interferes with signal due to reaction with NO. This issue should be taken into account when studying hybrids releasing both NO and 1O2, which are promising for photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a ubiquitous, volatile, cellular signaling molecule that operates across a wide physiological concentration range (pM-µM) in different tissues. It is a highly diffusible messenger and intermediate in various metabolic pathways. NO plays a pivotal role in maintaining optimum cardiovascular function, particularly by regulating vascular tone and blood flow. This review highlights the need for accurate, real-time bioimaging of NO in clinical diagnostic, therapeutic, monitoring, and theranostic applications within the cardiovascular system. We summarize electrochemical, optical, and nanoscale sensors that allow measurement and imaging of NO, both directly and indirectly via surrogate measurements. The physical properties of NO render it difficult to accurately measure in tissues using direct methods. There are also significant limitations associated with the NO metabolites used as surrogates to indirectly estimate NO levels. All these factors added to significant variability in the measurement of NO using available methodology have led to a lack of sensors and imaging techniques of clinical applicability in relevant vascular pathologies such as atherosclerosis and ischemic heart disease. Challenges in applying current methods to biomedical and clinical translational research, including the wide physiological range of NO and limitations due to the characteristics and toxicity of the sensors are discussed, as are potential targets and modifications for future studies. The development of biocompatible nanoscale sensors for use in combination with existing clinical imaging modalities provides a feasible opportunity for bioimaging NO within the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
Excessive amounts of Al3+ in the human body can cause adverse effects on immune function and induce several neurodegenerative disorders. So far, most of the reported fluorescent probes for Al3+ present some common drawbacks, such as low sensitivity and poor water solubility. In addition, a number of traditional fluorescent probes failed to image Al3+ in tumor cells due to the lack of tumor cell targeting capacity and cell penetrating abilities. To overcome these shortcomings, we constructed tumor-targeting fluorescent mixed nano-micelles (mPEG-Dye-Biotin) with an average particle size of 21 nm from an amphiphilic polymer containing a Schiff-base fluorescent unit (mPEG-Dye) and another amphiphilic polymer containing a tumor cell recognition ligand (DSPE-PEG-Biotin), through the co-self-assembly of both amphiphilic polymers in water using the film rehydration method. The as-prepared nanoprobe showed a highly sensitive and selective turn-on fluorescence response to Al3+ in aqueous solution with a low detection limit. MTT assay revealed the negligible cytotoxicity of the mPEG-Dye-Biotin nanoprobe to both HeLa cells and COS-7 cells, indicating the safety of mPEG-Dye-Biotin for biological applications. More importantly, the biotinylated nanoprobe showed better ability to enter biotin receptor-positive HeLa cells than that of the non-biotinylated micelle mPEG-Dye, which made it more suitable for imaging Al3+ in biotin receptor-positive tumor cells. This work provides a simple and general strategy to design a highly sensitive and tumor cell-specific metal ion nanoprobe, which can not only be applied in Al3+ imaging, but can also be extended to other ions or biomolecules by changing the incorporated fluorescent unit in the amphiphilic polymer.

Abstract
Endogenous gaseous signaling molecules including nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) have been demonstrated to perform significant physiological and pharmacological functions and are associated with various diseases in biological systems. In order to obtain a deeper insight into their roles and mechanisms of action, it is desirable to develop novel techniques for effectively detecting gaseous signaling molecules. Small-molecule fluorescent probes have been proven to be a powerful approach for the detection and imaging of biological messengers by virtue of their non-invasiveness, high selectivity, and real-time in situ detection capability. Based on the intrinsic properties of gaseous signaling molecules, numerous fluorescent probes have been constructed to satisfy various demands. In this perspective, we summarize the recent advances in the field of fluorescent probes for the detection of NO, CO and H2S and illustrate the design strategies and application examples of these probes. Moreover, we also emphasize the challenges and development directions of gasotransmitter-responsive fluorescent probes, hoping to provide a general implication for future research.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a fundamental signaling molecule that shows complex effects on the catabolic autophagy process, which is closely linked with lysosomal function. In this study, a new lysosome-targeted, pH-independent, and two-photon phosphorescent iridium(III) complex, Ir-BPDA, has been investigated for endogenous NO detection and imaging. The rational design of the probe, as the addition of the morpholine moieties and the substitution of a benzyl group in the amino group in Ir-BPDA, facilitates its accumulation in lysosomes and makes the reaction product with NO, Ir-BPDA-NO, insusceptible in its phosphorescence intensity and lifetime against pH changes (pH 4-10), well suited for lysosomal NO detection (pH 4-6). Furthermore, Ir-BPDA exhibits a fast and 50-fold response to NO in phosphorescence intensity and a two-photon cross-section as high as 60 GM after the reaction, as well as a notably increased phosphorescence lifetime from 200.1 to 619.6 ns. Thus, accompanied by its photostability, Ir-BPDA enabled the detection of NO in the lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages and zebrafish model, revealing the endogenous lysosomal NO distribution during inflammation in vivo by means of both TPM and PLIM imaging techniques.

Abstract
Six novel fluorogenic enzyme substrates for detecting l-alanylaminopeptidase activity in microorganisms have been prepared and evaluated in Columbia agar media. The substrates are l-alanyl derivatives of 6-amino-2-hetarylquinolines and 7-amino-3-hetarylcoumarins. Both the quinoline and coumarin series of substrates produced fluorescence in the presence of Gram-negative microorganisms. In contrast, fluorescence generation in the presence of the Gram-positive microorganisms and yeasts was limited or absent.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a vital gaseous signal molecule and plays an important role in diverse physiological and pathological processes including regulation of vascular functions. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is caused by the accumulation of misfolded or unfolded protein in the ER. Besides, ER stress induced by NO can be involved in the pathogenesis of various vascular diseases. Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge, no ER-targeting probe for NO is reported to study the relationship between ER stress and the level of NO in a biological system. Herein, an ER-targeted fluorescent probe named ER-Nap-NO for imaging of NO is designed and synthesized. ER-Nap-NO consists of three main parts: naphthalimide (two-photon fluorophore), o-phenylenediamino (NO recognition group), and methyl sulfonamide (ER-targetable group). The probe itself is nonfluorescent because a photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process exists. After the addition of NO, the PET process is inhibited and thus strong fluorescence is released. Moreover, the response mechanism is confirmed by 1H NMR and mass spectra and DFT calculation in detail. In addition, from the experimental results, we can conclude that the probe displays several obvious advantages including high sensitivity, selectivity, and ER-targetable ability. Based on these excellent properties, the probe is used for the two-photon imaging of exogenous and endogenous NO in ER of living cells. Most importantly, the ER-targetable probe has potential capability as a tool for investigating the level of NO during tunicamycin-induced ER stress in cells and tissues, which is beneficial for revealing the role of NO in ER-associated vascular diseases.

Abstract
A novel bifunctional thiophene-based Schiff base TS as a colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on sensor for rapid and simultaneous detection of Al3+ and Zn2+ ions with high selectivity and sensitivity has been developed. The sensor shows remarkable fluorescence enhancement response for Al3+ and Zn2+ over a broad pH range with good anti-interference capability, which accompanied with an obvious color change easily detected by naked eyes. Sensor TS can detect as low as 3.7 × 10-9 M for Al3+ and 3.0 × 10-8 M for Zn2+, whereas respective association constants are 1.16 × 104 M-1 and 2.08 × 104 M-1. With the help of fluorescence titration and Job's plot, the stoichiometric ratio of TS with Al3+/Zn2+ was determined to be 1:1. The sensing mechanism of sensor TS with Al3+/Zn2+ based on the chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) was analyzed in detail through 1H NMR titration, FTIR, HRMS and DFT studies. Moreover, sensor TS has been applied to the detection of Al3+ and Zn2+ in real environmental water and food samples as well as the filter paper-based test strips. Furthermore, sensor TS has good cell-permeability and can be used to selectively sense intracellular Al3+ and Zn2+ by bioimaging.

In this article, we have designed and synthesized a new, convenient and efficient phenanthroquinone-pyridoxal based fluorogenic probe PQPY, highly suitable for the selective and sensitive detection of nitric oxide in an aerated aqueous (7 : 3/H2O : MeCN) medium at pH 7.0 (10 mM HEPES buffer). Upon addition of nitric oxide, this probe exhibits emission in the green region (λem = 505 nm) which is ascribed to ICT (intramolecular charge transfer) from the phenanthroquinone moiety to the imidazole -N-N[double bond, length as m-dash]O fragment. The apparent formation constant, Kf, of the NO product of the ligand is (1.00 ± 0.2) × 105 M-1 and the LOD is 78 nM. The substantial enhancement of the life-time of the ligand (τ0 = 2.68 ns) occurs due to binding with nitric oxide (τ0 = 3.96 ns). This probe is low cytotoxicity, cell permeable and suitable for living cell imaging application.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an intra- and extracellular messenger with important functions during human physiology process. A long-lived luminescent iridium(III) complex probe 1 has been designed and synthesized for the monitoring of NO controllably released from sodium nitroprusside (SNP). Probe 1 displayed a 15-fold switch-on luminescence in the presence of SNP at 580 nm. The probe exhibited a linear response towards SNP between 5 to 25 μM with detection limit at 0.18 μM. Importantly, the luminescent switch-on detection of NO in HeLa cells was demonstrated. Overall, complex 1 has the potential to be applied for NO tracing in complicated cellular environment.

Theoretical Design of a Two-Photon Fluorescent Probe for Nitric Oxide with Enhanced Emission Induced by Photoninduced Electron Transfer. SENSORS 2018; 18:s18051324.

Abstract
In the present work, we systematically investigate the sensing abilities of two recently literature-reported two-photon fluorescent NO probes, i.e., the o-phenylenediamine derivative of Nile Red and the p-phenylenediamine derivative of coumarin. The recognition mechanisms of these probes are studied by using the molecular orbital classifying method, which demonstrates the photoinduced electron transfer process. In addition, we have designed two new probes by swapping receptor units present on fluorophores, i.e., the p-phenylenediamine derivative of Nile Red and the o-phenylenediamine derivative of coumarin. However, it illustrates that only the latter has ability to function as off-on typed fluorescent probe for NO. More importantly, calculations on the two-photon absorption properties of the probes demonstrate that both receptor derivatives of coumarin possess larger TPA cross-sections than Nile Red derivatives, which makes a better two photon fluorescent probe. Our theoretical investigations reveal that the underlying mechanism satisfactorily explain the experimental results, providing a theoretical basis on the structure-property relationships which is beneficial to developing new two-photon fluorescent probes for NO.

Abstract
Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is an emerging imaging modality that utilizes optical excitation and acoustic detection to enable high resolution at centimeter depths. The development of activatable PA probes can expand the utility of this technology to allow for detection of specific stimuli within live-animal models. Herein, we report the design, development, and evaluation of a series of Acoustogenic Probe(s) for Nitric Oxide (APNO) for the ratiometric, analyte-specific detection of nitric oxide (NO) in vivo. The best probe in the series, APNO-5, rapidly responds to NO to form an N-nitroso product with a concomitant 91 nm hypsochromic shift. This property enables ratiometric PA imaging upon selective irradiation of APNO-5 and the corresponding product, tAPNO-5. Moreover, APNO-5 displays the requisite photophysical characteristics for in vivo PA imaging (e.g., high absorptivity, low quantum yield) as well as high biocompatibility, stability, and selectivity for NO over a variety of biologically relevant analytes. APNO-5 was successfully applied to the detection of endogenous NO in a murine lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation model. Our studies show a 1.9-fold increase in PA signal at 680 nm and a 1.3-fold ratiometric turn-on relative to a saline control.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is important in the regulation of a variety of biological processes and is involved in various diseases. Quantitative measurement of H2O2 levels at the subcellular level is important for understanding its positive and negative effects on biological processes. Herein, a two-photon ratiometric fluorescent probe (SHP-Cyto) with a boronate-based carbamate leaving group as the H2O2 reactive trigger and 6-(benzo[d]thiazol-2'-yl)-2-(N,N-dimethylamino) naphthalene (BTDAN) as the fluorophore was synthesized and examined for its ability to detect cytosolic H2O2 in situ. This probe, based on the specific reaction between boronate and H2O2, displayed a fluorescent color change (455 to 528 nm) in response to H2O2 in the presence of diverse reactive oxygen species in a physiological medium. In addition, ratiometric two-photon microscopy (TPM) images with SHP-Cyto revealed that H2O2 levels gradually increased from brain to kidney, skin, heart, lung, and then liver tissues. SHP-Cyto was successfully applied to the imaging of endogenously produced cytosolic H2O2 levels in live cells and various rat organs by using TPM.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent probe 1 based on acridine orange was developed for the selective detection and bioimaging of biothiols. The probe exhibits higher selectivity and turn-on fluorescence response to cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and glutathione (GSH) than to other amino acids. Importantly, the probe responds to GSH and Cys/Hcy with distinct fluorescence emissions in PBS buffer at pH of 7.4. The Cys/Hcy-triggered tandem SNAr-rearrangement reaction and GSH-induced SNAr reaction with the probe led to the corresponding amino-acridinium and thio-acridinium dyes, respectively, which can discriminate GSH from Cys/Hcy through different emission channels. Interestingly, Cys finishes the tandem reaction with the probe and subsequently forms amino-acridinium and Hcy/GSH induces SNAr reaction with the probe to form thio-acridiniums at weakly acidic conditions (pH 6.0), enabling Cys to be discriminated from Hcy/GSH at different emissions. Finally, we demonstrated that probe 1 can selectively probe GSH over Cys and Hcy or Cys over GSH and Hcy in HeLa cells through multicolor imaging.

Abstract
Two-photon (TP) fluorescent probes are potential candidates for near-infrared (NIR) imaging which holds great promise in biological research. However, currently, most TP probes emit at wavelength <600 nm, which impedes their practical applications. In this work, we explored the TP properties of a silicon-rhodamine (SiR) derivative and hence developed the first SiR scaffold based "NIR-to-NIR" TP probe (SiRNO) for nitric oxide (NO). SiRNO exhibited high sensitivity and specificity, as well as fast response for NO detection. It was able to track the subtle variation of intracellular NO content in live cells. Owing to the NIR excitation and emission, SiRNO enabled the detection of NO in situ in the xenograft tumor mouse model, revealing the NO generation during the tumor progression. This work indicates that SiR can be an ideal platform for the development of NIR emissive TP probe and may thus promote the advancement of NIR imaging.

Abstract
In situ fluorescence imaging of nitric oxide (NO) is a powerful tool for studying the critical roles of NO in biological events. However, the selective imaging of NO is still a challenge because most currently available fluorescent probes rely on the o-phenylenediamine (OPD) recognition site, which reacts with both NO and some abundant reactive carbonyl species (RCS) (such as dehydroascorbic acid and methylglyoxal) and some reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS). To address this problem, a new fluorescent probe, NCNO, based on the N-nitrosation of aromatic secondary amine was designed to bypass the RCS, ROS, and RNS interference. As was expected, the probe NCNO could recognize NO with pronounced selectivity and sensitivity among ROS, RNS, and RCS. The probe was validated by detecting NO in live cells and deep tissues owing to its two-photon excitation and red-light emission. It was, hence, applied to monitor NO in ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) in mice kidneys by two-photon microscopy for the first time, and the results vividly revealed the profile of NO generation in situ during the renal IRI process.

Abstract
It is of scientific significance to explore the intricate relationship between two crucial gasotransmitters nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) because they exert similar and interdependent biological actions within the living organisms. Nevertheless, visualization of the NO/H2S crosstalk using effective molecular imaging tools remains challenging. To address this issue, and given that nitroxyl (HNO) has been implicated as the interdependent production of NO and H2S via a network of cascading chemical reactions, we herein design a ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe for HNO, termed TP-Rho-HNO, which consists of benzo[h]chromene-rhodol scaffold as two-photon energy transfer cassette with phosphine moiety as specific HNO recognition unit. The newly proposed probe has been successfully applied in ratiometric two-photon bioimaging of endogenous HNO derived from NO and H2S interaction in the human umbilical vein cells (HUVECs) and as well as in rat brain tissues. Intriguingly, the imaging results consistently demonstrate that the mutually dependent upgeneration of H2S and NO are present in living biosystems, indicating that this molecular probe would provide a powerful approach to elucidate the chemical foundation for the anfractuous cross-talk between the NO and H2S signaling pathways in biology.

Abstract
A water soluble Hantzsch ester derivative of coumarin, DHPS, was synthesized and successfully applied in the fluorescent sensing nitric oxide (NO) in aqueous solution. The fluorescence of probe DHPS is extremely weak, while its fluorescence was greatly switched on upon the addition of NO solution and showed high selectivity and sensitivity to NO. The limitation of the detection was calculated to be 18nM. The NO-induced aromatization of dihydropyridine in DHPS to pyridine derivative (PYS) proved to be the switching mechanism for the fluorescent sensing process, which was confirmed through spectra characterization and computation study. Cytotoxicity assay demonstrated both DHPS and PYS are biocompatible, the DHPS was successfully applied to track the endogenously produced NO in the RAW 264.7 cells.

Abstract
Mitochondria, the power generators in cell, are a primary organelle of oxygen consumption and a main source of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS). Peroxynitrite (ONOO-), known as a kind of RNS, has been considered to be a significant factor in many cell-related biological processes, and there is great desire to develop fluorescent probes that can sensitively and selectively detect peroxynitrite in living cells. Herein, we developed a fluorescent carbon-dots (C-dots) based mitochondria-targetable nanoprobe with high sensitivity and selectivity for peroxynitrite sensing in living cells. The C-dots with its surface rich in amino groups was synthesized using o-phenylenediamine as carbon precursor, and it could be covalently conjugated with a mitochondria-targeting moiety, i.e. triphenylphosphonium (TPP). In the presence of peroxynitrite, the fluorescence of the constructed nanoprobe (C-dots-TPP) was efficiently quenched via a mechanism of photoinduced electron transfer (PET). The nanoprobe exhibited relatively high sensitivity (limit of detection: 13.5nM) and selectivity towards peroxynitrite in aqueous buffer. The performance of the nanoprobe for fluorescence imaging of peroxynitrite in mitochondria was investigated. The results demonstrated that the nanoprobe showed fine mitochondria-targeting ability and imaging contrast towards peroxynitrite in living cells. We anticipate that the proposed nanoprobe will provide a facile tool to explore the role played by peroxynitrite in cytobiology.
