Abstract
Abnormal amount of dopamine (DA) in human body is closely relate to various diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, pheochromocytoma. Real-time monitoring DA is crucial for disease warning, diagnosis and treatment. Currently, most methods rely on invasive blood testing for detecting DA, which is only completed with the aid of the medical staffs in hospitals. Herein, a non-invasive fluorescence visual strategy is developed for the real-time monitoring DA, based on luminescent nanoparticles and modified mesoporous zeolite imidazole framework (ZIF-8-NH2) dodecahedrons. During the reaction process, DA is enriched through the spatial configuration of ZIF-8-NH2 and hydrogen bonding effect. The luminescence of Cr3+-doped zinc gallate (ZnGa2O4:Cr3+, ZGC) is inhibited by the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) mechanism to realize sensitively detecting DA. The intelligent sensing platform based on the designed fluorescence probe and color recognition system is structured for real-time detection of DA in urine. Furthermore, a skin-fitting hydrogel patch is prepared by combining a fluorescent probe with chitosan, which enables sensitive and accurate detection of DA in sweat without the complex sample pretreatment. The non-invasive fluorescence detection method provides an effective strategy for quantitatively monitoring DA in human fluids.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical (PEC) nanobiosensors integrate molecular (bio)recognition elements with semiconductor/plasmonic photoactive nanomaterials to produce measurable signals after light-induced reactions. Recent advancements in PEC nanobiosensors, using light-matter interactions, have significantly improved sensitivity, specificity, and signal-to-noise ratio in detecting (bio)analytes. Tunable nanomaterials activated by a wide spectral radiation window coupled to electrochemical transduction platforms have further improved detection by stabilizing and amplifying electrical signals. This work reviews PEC biosensors based on nanomaterials like metal oxides, carbon nitrides, quantum dots, and transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs), showing their superior optoelectronic properties and analytical performance for the detection of clinically relevant biomarkers. Furthermore, it highlights the innovative role of red light and NIR-activated PEC nanobiosensors in enhancing charge transfer processes, protecting them from biomolecule photodamage in vitro and in vivo applications. Overall, advances in PEC detection systems have the potential to revolutionize rapid and accurate measurements in clinical diagnostic applications. Their integration into miniaturized devices also supports the development of portable, easy-to-use diagnostic tools, facilitating point-of-care (POC) testing solutions and real-time monitoring.

Abstract
Visible light is a universal and user-friendly excitation source; however, its use to generate persistent luminescence (PersL) in materials remains a huge challenge. Herein, the concept of intermolecular charge transfer (xCT) is applied in typical host-guest molecular systems, which allows for a much lower energy requirement for charge separation, thus enabling efficient charging of near-infrared (NIR) PersL in organics by visible light (425-700 nm). Importantly, NIR PersL in organics occurs via the trapping of electrons from charge-transfer aggregates (CTAs) into constructed trap states with trap depths of 0.63-1.17 eV, followed by the detrapping of these electrons by thermal stimulation, resulting in a unique light-storage effect and long-lasting emission up to 4.6 h at room temperature. The xCT absorption range is modulated by changing the electron-donating ability of a series of acenaphtho[1,2-b]pyrazine-8,9-dicarbonitrile-based CTAs, and the organic PersL is tuned from 681 to 722 nm. This study on xCT interaction-induced NIR PersL in organic materials provides a major step forward in understanding the underlying luminescence mechanism of organic semiconductors and these findings are expected to promote their applications in optoelectronics, energy storage, and medical diagnosis.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging represents a vital tool in modern biology, oncology and biomedical applications. Afterglow luminescence (AGL), which circumvents the light scattering and tissue autofluorescence interference associated with real-time excitation source, shows remarkably increased imaging sensitivity and depth. Here we present a protocol for the design and synthesis of AGL nanoprobes with an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect to simultaneously red shift and amplify the afterglow signal for tumor imaging and image-guided tumor resection. The nanoprobe (AGL AIE dot) is composed of an enol ether format of Schaap's agent and a near-infrared AIE fluorogen (AIEgen) (tetraphenylethylene-phenyl-dicyanomethylene-4H-chromene, TPE-Ph-DCM) to suppress the nonradiative dissipation pathway. Pre-irradiating AGL AIE dots with white light could generate singlet oxygen to convert Schaap's agent to its 1,2-dioxetane format, thus initializing the AGL process. With the aid of AIEgen, the AGL shows simultaneously red shifted emission maximum (from ~540 nm to ~625 nm) and enhanced intensity (by 3.2-fold), facilitating better signal-to-background ratio, imaging sensitivity and depth. Intriguingly, the activated AGL can last for over 10 days. Compared with conventional approaches, our method provides a new solution to concurrently red shift and amplify afterglow signals for better in vivo imaging outcomes. The preparation of AGL AIE dots takes ~2 days, the in vitro characterization takes ~10 days (less than 1 day if not involving afterglow kinetic profile study) and the tumor imaging and image-guided tumor resection takes ~7 days. These procedures can be easily reproduced and amended after standard laboratory training in chemical synthesis and animal handling.

Abstract
As promising luminescence nanoparticles, near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) have received extensive attention in the field of high-sensitivity bioimaging in recent years. However, NIR PLNPs face problems such as short excitation wavelengths and single imaging modes, which limit their applications in in vivo reactivated imaging and multimodal imaging. Here, we report for the first time novel Gd2GaTaO7:Cr3+,Yb3+ (GGTO) NIR PLNPs that integrate X-ray activated NIR persistent luminescence (PersL), high X-ray attenuation and excellent magnetic properties into a single nanoparticle (NP). In this case, Cr3+ is used as the luminescence center. The co-doped Yb3+ and coating effectively enhance the X-ray activated NIR PersL. At the same time, the presence of the high-Z element Ta also makes the GGTO NPs exhibit high X-ray attenuation performance, which can be used as a CT contrast agent to achieve in vivo CT imaging. In addition, since the matrix contains a large amount of Gd, the GGTO NPs show remarkable magnetic properties, which can realize in vivo MR imaging. GGTO NPs combine the trimodal benefits of X-ray reactivated PersL, CT and MR imaging and are suitable for single or combined applications that require high sensitivity and spatial resolution imaging.

Abstract
Studies on the toxicity of micro- and nanomaterials in plants have primarily focused on their intrinsic effects. However, there is often oversight when considering the potential perceptual responses that plants may exhibit in response to these materials. In this investigation, we assessed the impact of three commercially available persistent luminescence materials (PLMs) that emit red, green, or blue light under various environmental conditions. We subjected rice (Oryza sativa L.), a short-day plant, to nine distinct treatments, including exposure to particles in isolation, their nocturnal afterglow, or a combination of both. We thoroughly examined rice seedling morphology, photosynthesis patterns, metabolite dynamics, and flowering gene expression to determine the biological responses of plants to these particles. These findings demonstrated that PLMs stably interact with rice, and their emitted afterglow precisely matches the perceptual bandwidth of rice photoreceptors. Notably, the nocturnal afterglow from the red and blue PLMs enhanced the vegetative growth of rice seedlings while inhibiting their reproductive development. The blue PLMs exhibited the most pronounced positive effects, while the red PLMs exhibited inhibitory effects. When exposed to a combination of red and blue PLMs, rice displays enhanced growth and development. The observed alterations in the expression patterns of genes responsible for flowering supported these effects. We concluded that PLMs influence rice growth and development due to their inherent properties and intermittent illumination during dark periods. Both factors collectively shape rice growth and development.

Abstract
The uptake of plastic particles by plants and their transport through the food chain make great risks to biota and human health. Therefore, it is important to trace plastic particles in the plant. Traditional fluorescence imaging in plants usually suffers significant autofluorescence background. Here, we report a persistent luminescence nanoplatform for autofluorescence-free imaging and quantitation of submicrometer plastic particles in plant. The nanoplatform was fabricated by doping persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) onto polystyrene (PS) nanoparticles. Cr3+-doped zinc gallate PLNP was employed as the dopant for autofluorescence-free imaging due to its persistent luminescence nature. In addition, the Ga element in PLNP was used as a proxy to quantify the PS in the plant by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Thus, the developed nanoplatform allows not only dual-mode autofluorescence-free imaging (persistent luminescence and laser-ablation ICP-MS) but also ICP-MS quantitation for tracking PS in plant. Application of this nanoplatform in a typical plant model Arabidopsis thaliana revealed that PS mainly distributed in the root (>99.45%) and translocated very limited (<0.55%) to the shoot. The developed nanoplatform has great potential for quantitative tracing of submicrometer plastic particles to investigate the environmental process and impact of plastic particles.

Abstract
Photoluminescent materials (PLNs) are photoluminescent materials that can absorb external excitation light, store it, and slowly release it in the form of light in the dark to achieve long-term luminescence. Developing near-infrared (NIR) PLNs is critical to improving long-afterglow luminescent materials. Because they excite in vitro, NIR-PLNs have the potential to avoid interference from in vivo autofluorescence in biomedical applications. These materials are promising for biosensing and bioimaging applications by exploiting the near-infrared biological window. First, we discuss the biomedical applications of PLNs in the first near-infrared window (NIR-I, 700-900 nm), which have been widely developed and specifically introduce biosensors and imaging reagents. However, the light in this area still suffers from significant light scattering and tissue autofluorescence, which will affect the imaging quality. Over time, fluorescence imaging technology in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) has also begun to develop rapidly. NIR-II fluorescence imaging has the advantages of low light scattering loss, high tissue penetration depth, high imaging resolution, and high signal-to-noise ratio, and it shows broad application prospects in biological analysis and medical diagnosis. This critical review collected and sorted articles from the past 5 years and introduced their respective fluorescence imaging technologies and backgrounds based on the definitions of NIR-I and NIR-II. We also analyzed the current advantages and dilemmas that remain to be solved. Herein, we also suggested specific approaches NIR-PLNs can use to improve the quality and be more applicable in cancer research.

Abstract
Persistent luminescent nanomaterials (PLNPs) Zn0.8Ga2O4: Cr3+, Zr3+ with high brightness and good dispersion were prepared by hydrothermal method. The PLNPs were used as luminescent units, and CoOOH nanosheets were used as quenching agents. Based on the fluorescence internal filtering effect, the luminescence of PLNPs were effectively quenched by CoOOH modification on the surface of PLNPs. However, the introduction of ascorbic acid (AA) restored the luminescence of PLNPs and successfully achieved highly sensitive and selective detection of AA. This was due to a selective redox reaction between CoOOH and AA, in which CoOOH was reduced to Co2+. The degree of luminescence recovery of PLNPs showed a good linear relationship with AA concentration in the range 5-250 µM, with a detection limit of 0.72 µM. The recovery of actual spiked samples were 97.9-102.2%. This method is expected to provide reference for the study of other redox substances in biological systems.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR)-emitting persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) are ideal optical imaging contrast reagents characterized by autofluorescence-free optical imaging for their frontier applications in long-term bioimaging. Preparation of uniform small-sized PLNPs with excellent luminescence performance is crucial for biomedical applications, but challenging. Here, we report a facile magnesium doping strategy to achieve size-independent boost of NIR persistent luminescence in typical and most concerned ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ PLNPs. This strategy relies on the doping of Mg2+ ions that with similar size of Zn2+ ions in the host lattice matrix, and concomitant to the electron traps tailoring tuned by varying the feed ratio of Mg2+. The optimum Mg2+-doped PLNPs give a long afterglow time (signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) = 31.6 at 30 d) without changing the desirable uniform sub-10 nm size of the original nanocrystals. The appropriate increase of the depth and concentration of electron trap contribute jointly to the enhancement of lifetime (488 % longer, 20.57 s) and afterglow time for 700 nm persistent luminescence. Meanwhile, these PLNPs keep the original excellent rechargeability and promote over 60 times increase of SNR in renewable in vivo imaging. This simple strategy provides a basis for new opportunities to address the critical challenge of effective optical performance boost in small-sized PLNPs.

Abstract
Multi-functionalised nano-platforms based on persistent-luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) have attracted considerable attention for biomedical applications owing to their lack of background noise and suitability for in vivo imaging without the need for in situ excitation. However, nano-platforms based on PLNPs for continuous photodynamic therapy (PDT) are currently lacking. Herein, we report a nano-platform (LiGa4.99O8:Cr0.01/IrO2, LGO:Cr/IrO2) prepared using PLNPs (LiGa4.99O8:Cr0.01, LGO:Cr) covalently bonded with iridium oxide nanoparticles (IrO2 NPs), producing near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence, "afterglow" PDT and photo-thermal therapy (PTT) effects. The LGO:Cr/IrO2 not only exhibits NIR-persistent luminescence at 719 nm and a PTT effect under 808 nm irradiation but also a continuous "afterglow" PDT effect without the need for in situ excitation owing to persistent energy transfer from LGO:Cr to the IrO2 NPs, in turn generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). This multi-functional nano-platform is expected to further promote the application of PLNPs in tumour treatment.

Abstract
The study of photoactive materials often unveils intriguing findings, showcasing the value of an interdisciplinary approach. We examined the purported metal-enhanced luminescence thought to result from the chemisorption of aryl iodides on poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)-stabilized gold nanoparticles. Our discovery deviates from previous assumptions: the fluorescence observed does not originate from excimers of iodophenols chemisorbed on Au:PVP. Instead, it arises from biphenol products, resulting from a gold-mediated Ullmann homocoupling reaction that occurs within the system. Notably, this reaction, known for its demanding nature, proceeds in methanol under purely ambient conditions: room temperature and air atmosphere, without the need for a base. Therefore, these findings not only offer a complete understanding of the observed luminescence but also provide a substantial contribution to the field of carbon-carbon coupling reactions.

Abstract
Immunochromatography is a commonly used immediate detection technique, using signal labels to generate detection signals for rapid medical diagnosis. However, its detection sensitivity is affected by background fluorescence caused by the excitation light source. We have developed an immunochromatographic test strip using Zn2GeO4:Mn2+ (ZGM) persistent luminescent nanoparticles (PLNPs) for immediate fluorescence detection and highly sensitive persistent luminescence (PersL) detection without background fluorescence interference. ZGM emits a strong green light when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) excitation, and its green PersL can persist for over 30 min after the excitation light is turned off. We modified the surface of ZGM with heparin-binding protein (HBP) antibodies to create immunochromatographic test strips for the detection of HBP as the target analyte. Under UV excitation, the chromatography test paper can be visually observed at concentrations as low as 25 ng/mL. After the excitation light source is switched off, PersL can achieve a detection limit of 4.7 ng/mL without background interference. This dual-mode immunochromatographic detection, based on ZGM, shows great potential for in vitro diagnostic applications.

Abstract
The injectable hydrogels can deliver the loads directly to the predetermined sites and form reservoirs to increase the enrichment and retention of the loads in the target areas. The preparation and injection of injectable hydrogels involve the sol-gel transformation of hydrogels, which is affected by factors such as temperature, ions, enzymes, light, mechanics (self-healing property), and pH. However, tracing the injection, degradation, and drug release from hydrogels based on different ways of gelation is a major concern. To solve this problem, contrast agents are introduced into injectable hydrogels, enabling the hydrogels to be imaged under techniques such as fluorescence imaging, photoacoustic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, and radionuclide imaging. This review details methods for causing the gelation of imageable hydrogels; discusses the application of injectable hydrogels containing contrast agents in various imaging techniques, and finally explores the potential and challenges of imageable hydrogels based on different modes of gelation.

Abstract
Long-persistent luminescent (LPL) materials have attracted considerable research interest due to their extensive applications and outstanding afterglow performance. However, the performance of red LPL materials lags behind that of green and blue materials. Therefore, it is crucial to explore novel red LPL materials. This study introduces a straightforward and viable strategy for organic-inorganic hybrids, wherein the organic ligand 1,3,6,8-Tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)pyrene (TCPP) is coordinated to the surface of a red persistent phosphor Sr0.75 Ca0.25 S:Eu2+ (R) through a one-step method. TCPP serves as an antenna, facilitating the transfer of absorbed light energy to R via triplet energy transfer (TET). Notably, the initial afterglow intensity and luminance of R increase by twofold and onefold, respectively, and the afterglow duration extends from 9 to 17 min. Furthermore, this study involves the preparation of a highly flexible film by mixing R@TCPP with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) to create a sound-controlled afterglow lamp. This innovative approach holds promising application prospects in flexible large-area luminescence, flexible wearables, and low-vision lighting.

Abstract
Dynamic variations in the concentration and abnormal distribution of endogenous biomarkers are strongly associated with multiple physiological and pathological states. Therefore, it is crucial to design imaging systems capable of real-time detection of dynamic changes in biomarkers for the accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of diseases. Recently, ratiometric imaging has emerged as a widely used technique for sensing and imaging of biomarkers due to its advantage of circumventing the limitations inherent to conventional intensity-dependent signal readout methods while also providing built-in self-calibration for signal correction. Here, the recent progress of ratiometric probes and their applications in sensing and imaging of biomarkers are outlined. Ratiometric probes are classified according to their imaging mechanisms, and ratiometric photoacoustic imaging, ratiometric optical imaging including photoluminescence imaging and self-luminescence imaging, ratiometric magnetic resonance imaging, and dual-modal ratiometric imaging are discussed. The applications of ratiometric probes in the sensing and imaging of biomarkers such as pH, reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), glutathione (GSH), gas molecules, enzymes, metal ions, and hypoxia are discussed in detail. Additionally, this Review presents an overview of challenges faced in this field along with future research directions.

Abstract
It is an important strategy to rationally design and construct specific-shaped microscopic nanostructures for developing poly-functional nanomaterials for different advanced applications. In this work, a novel technique combining a parallel electrospinning with a subsequent bi-crucible fluorination is advanced and utilized to facilely synthesize a brand-new peculiar one-dimensional (1D) wire-in-tube nanofiber//nanofiber shaped Janus nanofiber (WJNF) to refrain from usual complicated preparation procedures. Partition of four independent domains in the peculiar-structured Janus nanofiber is microscopically realized. The Janus nanofiber with four microscopic partitions can be applied to assemble various functions to avoid adverse mutual impacts among functions to realize multi-functionalization of the materials. As a case study, [YF3:Yb3+, Er3+@SiO2]//CoFe2O4 WJNFs with synchronous excellent upconversion luminescence and tunable magnetism are designed and constructed by the above technique. One side of the WJNF is composed of YF3:Yb3+, Er3+@SiO2 wire-in-tube nanofiber with YF3:Yb3+, Er3+ nanofiber as core layer and SiO2 as shell layer, and the other side is composed of CoFe2O4 magnetic nanofiber. YF3:Yb3+, Er3+ green upconversion luminescent nanofiber is completely separated from CoFe2O4 to fully avoid the weakening of luminescent intensity caused by the direct contact between luminescent and magnetic substances, and thus the luminescent intensity of [YF3:Yb3+, Er3+@SiO2]//CoFe2O4 WJNFs is apparently enhanced. Up-conversion luminescent intensity and magnetism of the WJNFs are modulated by tuning the contents of CoFe2O4. With the increase of CoFe2O4 content, the saturation magnetization of the WJNFs increases from 3.91 to 12.90 emu·g-1, revealing the tunable magnetism of the product. The formation mechanism of WJNFs is advanced, and a corresponding facile construction technique is established to shun complicated process, which provides theoretical guidance and technical support for the design and preparation of other poly-functional nanomaterials.

Abstract
Advances in the development of new biorecognition elements, nanoparticle-based labels as well as instrumentation have inspired the design of new bioaffinity assays. This review critically discusses the potential of nanoparticles to replace current enzymatic or molecular labels in immunoassays and other bioaffinity assays. Successful implementations of nanoparticles in commercial assays and the need for rapid tests incorporating nanoparticles in different roles such as capture support, signal generation elements, and signal amplification systems are highlighted. The limited number of nanoparticles applied in current commercial assays can be explained by challenges associated with the analysis of real samples (e.g., blood, urine, or nasal swabs) that are difficult to resolve, particularly if the same performance can be achieved more easily by conventional labels. Lateral flow assays that are based on the visual detection of the red-colored line formed by colloidal gold are a notable exception, exemplified by SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen tests that have moved from initial laboratory testing to widespread market adaption in less than two years.

Leveraging the reversible and dynamic nature of non-covalent interactions, these supramolecular polymers exhibit inherent responsiveness to their microenvironment, physiological cues, and biomolecular signals, making them uniquely suited for diverse biomedical applications. In this review, we intend to explore the principles of design, synthesis methodologies, and strategic developments that underlie the creation of supramolecular polymers as carriers for therapeutics, contributing to the treatment and prevention of a spectrum of human diseases. We delve into the principles underlying monomer design, emphasizing the pivotal role of non-covalent interactions, directionality, and reversibility. Moreover, we explore the intricate balance between thermodynamics and kinetics in supramolecular polymerization, illuminating strategies for achieving controlled sizes and distributions. Categorically, we examine their exciting biomedical applications: individual polymers as discrete carriers for therapeutics, delving into their interactions with cells, and in vivo dynamics; and supramolecular polymeric hydrogels as injectable depots, with a focus on their roles in cancer immunotherapy, sustained drug release, and regenerative medicine. As the field continues to burgeon, harnessing the unique attributes of therapeutic supramolecular polymers holds the promise of transformative impacts across the biomedical landscape.

Abstract
Remarkable advances have been achieved in solution self-assembly of polypeptides from the perspective of nanostructures, mechanisms, and applications. Despite the intrinsic chirality of polypeptides, the promising generation of aqueous circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) based on their self-assembly has been rarely reported due to the weak fluorescence of most polypeptides and the indeterminate self-assembly mechanism. Here, we propose a facile strategy for achieving aqueous CPL based on the self-assembly of simple homopolypeptides modified with a terminal group featuring both twisted intramolecular charge transfer and aggregation-induced emission properties. A morphology-dependent CPL can be observed under different self-assembly conditions by altering the solvents. A nanotoroid-dispersed aqueous solution with detectable CPL can be obtained by using tetrahydrofuran as a good solvent for the self-assembly, which is attributed to the involvement of the terminal group in the chiral environment formed by the homopolypeptide chains. However, such a chiral packing mode cannot be realized in nanorods self-assembled from dioxane, resulting in an inactive CPL phenomenon. Furthermore, CPL signals can be greatly amplified by co-assembly of homopolypeptides with the achiral small molecule derived from the terminal group. This work not only provides a pathway to construct aqueous CPL-active homopolypeptide nanomaterials but also reveals a potential mechanism in the self-assembly for chiral production, transfer, and amplification in polypeptide-based nanostructures.

Abstract
Stem cell therapy has shown great clinical potential in oncology, injury, inflammation, and cardiovascular disease. However, due to the technical limitations of the in vivo visualization of transplanted stem cells, the therapeutic mechanisms and biosafety of stem cells in vivo are poorly defined, which limits the speed of clinical translation. The commonly used methods for the in vivo tracing of stem cells currently include optical imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and nuclear medicine imaging. However, nuclear medicine imaging involves radioactive materials, MRI has low resolution at the cellular level, and optical imaging has poor tissue penetration in vivo. It is difficult for a single imaging method to simultaneously achieve the high penetration, high resolution, and noninvasiveness needed for in vivo imaging. However, multimodal imaging combines the advantages of different imaging modalities to determine the fate of stem cells in vivo in a multidimensional way. This review provides an overview of various multimodal imaging technologies and labeling methods commonly used for tracing stem cells, including optical imaging, MRI, and the combination of the two, while explaining the principles involved, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of different combination schemes, and discussing the challenges and prospects of human stem cell tracking techniques.

Abstract
Noble metal compositing is a promising method to enhance radiance intensity of persistent luminescent (PersL) nanoparticles (NPs) via surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for better tumor imaging, but it rarely unites with the pH-response strategy due to the challenge of realizing rigorous pH-responsive spatial distance control as a "button switch" of SPR. Here, ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ (ZGC) NPs as "pomegranate seeds" are cladded with sodium alginate to form nanoclusters (ZGC-SA), subsequently coated with carboxyl-rich polymers to acquire "pomegranate rind" (ZSPB) and finally decorated with 10 nm gold NPs (AuNPs) on the surface to obtain nanopomegranate structure (ZSPB@AuNPs). Though without deliberate distance control, there are plenty of "seeds" inside ZSPB@AuNPs fortunately at appropriate positions, which could be plasmon-enhanced by AuNPs. Furthermore, triggered by carboxyl protonation in subacid tumor, ZSPB@AuNPs aggregate and subsequently facilitate such plasmon enhancement effect, resulting in 4.4-fold PersL promotion at pH 5.5 (tumor microenvironment, TME) over pH 7.4 and in a maximum "tumor to normal tissue ratio" of PersL imaging signals of 125.9. Under surgical navigation of ZSPB@AuNPs, intramuscular tumors of mice could be resected without residue signals left. This nanopomegranate achieves TME pH-responsive plasmon-enhanced PersL for the first time and broadens the way for designing plasmon-enhanced PersL nanosystems.

Abstract
The extraordinary and unique properties of persistent luminescent (PerLum) nanostructures like storage of charge carriers, extended afterglow, and some other fascinating characteristics like no need for in-situ excitation, and rechargeable luminescence make such materials a primary candidate in the fields of bio-imaging and therapeutics. Apart from this, due to their extraordinary properties they have also found their place in the fields of anti-counterfeiting, latent fingerprinting (LPF), luminescent markings, photocatalysis, solid-state lighting devices, glow-in-dark toys, etc. Over the past few years, persistent luminescent nanoparticles (PLNPs) have been extensively used for targeted drug delivery, bio-imaging guided photodynamic and photo-thermal therapy, biosensing for cancer detection and subsequent treatment, latent fingerprinting, and anti-counterfeiting owing to their enhanced charge storage ability, in-vitro excitation, increased duration of time between excitation and emission, low tissue absorption, high signal-to-noise ratio, etc. In this review, we have focused on most of the key aspects related to PLNPs, including the different mechanisms leading to such phenomena, key fabrication techniques, properties of hosts and different activators, emission, and excitation characteristics, and important properties of trap states. This review article focuses on recent advances in cancer theranostics with the help of PLNPs. Recent advances in using PLNPs for anti-counterfeiting and latent fingerprinting are also discussed in this review.

Abstract
Persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) are innovative materials able to emit light for a long time after the end of their excitation. Thanks to this property, their detection can be separated in time from the excitation, making it possible to obtain images with a high signal-to-noise ratio. This optical property can be of particular interest for the development of in vitro biosensors. Here, we report the unexpected effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) on the signal intensity of ZnGa2 O4 :Cr3+ (ZGO) nanoparticles. In the presence of H2 O2 , the signal intensity of ZGO can be amplified. This signal amplification can be used to detect and quantify H2 O2 in various media, using non-functionalized ZGO nanoparticles. This small molecule can be produced by several oxidases when they react with their substrate. Indeed, the quantification of glucose, lactic acid, and uric acid is possible. The limit of detection could be lowered by modifying the nanoparticles synthesis route. These optimized nanoparticles can also be used as new biosensor to detect larger molecules such as antigen, using the appropriate antibody. This unique property, i.e., persistent luminescence signal enhancement induced by H2 O2 , represents a new way to detect biomolecules which could lead to a very large number of bioassay applications.

Abstract
Nanoprobes for efficient tumor-targeted imaging and therapy are urgently needed for clinical tumor theranostics. Herein, inspired by the heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment, we report a covalent organic framework (COF)-derived biomimetic nanozyme for precise tumor-targeted imaging and NIR-II photothermal-catalysis-enhanced chemotherapy (PTCEC). Using a crystalline nanoscale COF as the precursor, a peroxidase-like porous N-doped carbonous nanozyme (PNC) was obtained, which was cloaked with an M1 macrophage cell membrane (M1m) to create a multifunctional biomimetic nanoprobe for tumor-targeted imaging and therapy. The M1m coating enabled the nanoprobe to target cancer cells and tumor tissues for highly efficient tumor imaging and drug delivery. The peroxidase-like activity of the PNC allowed for the conversion of intratumoral H2O2 into toxic ˙OH that synergized with its NIR-II photothermal effect to strengthen the chemotherapy. Therefore, highly efficient tumor-targeted imaging and NIR-II PTCEC were realized with an M1 macrophage mimic nanoprobe. This work provides a feasible tactic for a biomimetic theranostic nanoprobe and will inspire the development of new bioactive nanomaterials for clinical tumor theranostic applications.

Abstract
In optical biosensing, analyte-independent factors such as autofluorescence interference and excitation source fluctuation decrease the sensitivity and accuracy. Herein, we reported a bimodal persistent luminescence strategy to design dual-emissive persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) with built-in self-calibration to preclude interference from analyte-independent factors in biosensing. As a proof of concept, ZnGa2O4:Cr PLNPs with emissions at both 490 nm and 695 nm were designed. The I490/I695 ratio of ZnGa2O4:Cr was readily adjusted by simply changing the doping concentration of Cr3+. The ZnGa2O4:Cr PLNPs were employed for the ratiometric detection of urinary mesna. A good linear relationship between the I490/I695 ratio of ZnGa2O4:Cr-based nanoprobe and the concentration of mesna was obtained in the range of 0-40 μM. The limit of detection was about 0.40 μM. Results showed that autofluorescence interference from urine was totally eliminated by collecting the persistent luminescence signal of ZnGa2O4:Cr after excitation ceased. Moreover, the built-in self-calibration feature of the ratiometric ZnGa2O4:Cr PLNPs efficiently suppressed the interference from fluctuations in instrumental parameters during urinary mesna detection. The recovery rates of mesna in the spiked urine samples are in the range of 99.1~109.0%, showing the reliability of the ratiometric ZnGa2O4:Cr PLNPs in urinary mesna detection. ZnGa2O4:Cr can further be expanded to the detection of other analytes in complex matrices. This study may open new opportunities for the design of dual-emissive PLNPs with tunable ratios of emission intensity, and it can further promote the applications of optical biosensing in disease diagnosis, food safety, and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) have shown special advantages in areas such as bioimaging, cancer therapy, stress sensing, and photo-biocatalysis. However, the lack of methods for controllable synthesis of PLNPs with uniform morphologies and strong persistent luminescence has seriously hindered the applications of PLNPs. Herein, we reported that modifying the electronic structures of zinc gallogermanate (ZGGO) PLNPs by nonstoichiometric reactions can produce highly uniform nanocubes with controllable size and persistent luminescence. By nonstoichiometric increase of the Ge/Ga ratio in ZGGO, the ZGGO PLNPs were transformed from a mixture of nanocubes and small nanospheres into highly symmetrical and uniform large nanocubes, accompanied by the enhancement of persistent luminescence intensity by about 3.7 times. Moreover, we found that ZGGO PLNPs were responsive to reactive oxygen species (ROS), that is, the persistent luminescence of ZGGO can be quenched by ROS. Autofluorescence-free serum ROS detection was achieved with the developed PLNPs. Further, a biosensing assay for glucose oxidase (GOx) was designed based on the responsiveness of ZGGO PLNPs to H2O2. This study may pave a new way for better control of PLNPs' size, morphology, and persistent luminescence, and it can further promote the applications of PLNPs in areas ranging from theranostics to solar energy utilization.

Abstract
Narrowband ultraviolet-B (NB-UVB) luminescent materials are characterized by high photon energy, narrow spectral width, and visible-blind emission, thus holding great promise for photochemistry and photomedicine. However, most NB-UVB phosphors developed so far are photoluminescent, where continuous external excitation is needed. Herein, we realize NB-UVB persistent luminescence (PersL) in an indoor-lighting environment by exploiting the interaction between self-trapped/defect-trapped excitons and Gd3+ emitters in ScPO4. The phosphor shows a self-luminescing feature with a peak maximum at 313 nm with a time duration of >24 h after ceasing X-ray irradiation, which can be clearly imaged by an UVB camera in a bright environment. Spectroscopic and theoretical approaches reveal that thermo- and photo-stimulations of energies trapped at intrinsic lattice defects followed by energy transfer to Gd3+ emitters account for the emergence of the afterglow. The present results can initiate more exploration of NB-UVB PersL phosphors for emerging applications in secret optical tagging and phototherapy.

Abstract
Zinc germanate doped with Mn2+ (Zn2GeO4:Mn2+) is known to be a persistent luminescence green phosphor with potential applications in biosensing and bioimaging. Such applications demand nanoparticulated phosphors with a uniform shape and size, good dispersibility in aqueous media, high chemical stability, and surface-functionalization. These characteristics could be major bottlenecks and hence limit their practical applications. This work describes a one-pot, microwave-assisted hydrothermal method to synthesize highly uniform Zn2GeO4:Mn2+ nanoparticles (NPs) using polyacrylic acid (PAA) as an additive. A thorough characterization of the NPs showed that the PAA molecules were essential to realizing uniform NPs as they were responsible for the ordered aggregation of their building blocks. In addition, PAA remained attached to the NPs surface, which conferred high colloidal stability to the NPs through electrostatic and steric interactions, and provided carboxylate groups that can act as anchor sites for the eventual conjugation of biomolecules to the surface. In addition, it was demonstrated that the as-synthesized NPs were chemically stable for, at least, 1 week in phosphate buffer saline (pH range = 6.0-7.4). The luminescence properties of Zn2GeO4 NPs doped with different contents of Mn2+ (0.25-3.00 mol %) were evaluated to find the optimum doping level for the highest photoluminescence (2.50% Mn) and the longest persistent luminescence (0.50% Mn). The NPs with the best persistent luminescence properties were photostable for at least 1 week. Finally, taking advantage of such properties and the presence of surface carboxylate groups, the Zn2GeO4:0.50%Mn2+ sample was successfully used to develop a persistent luminescence-based sandwich immunoassay for the autofluorescence-free detection of interleukin-6 in undiluted human serum and undiluted human plasma samples. This study demonstrates that our persistent Mn-doped Zn2GeO4 nanophosphors are ideal candidates for biosensing applications.

Abstract
In this work, a novel composite material (HPU-24@Ru) has been prepared by combining a blue-emission Cd-based metal-organic framework (MOF, [Cd2(TCPE)(DMF)(H2O)3]n, HPU-24) with a red-emission tris (2,2'-bipyridine) dichlororuthenium(II) hexahydrate ([Ru(bpy)3]2+) molecule for ratiometric fluorescence sensing of Al3+ ions in aqueous medium and high-level dynamic anticounterfeiting application. The luminescence measurement results indicated that the fluorescence intensity of HPU-24 at 446 nm showed a red shift in the presence of Al3+ ions, and the new peak appeared at 480 nm and continued to increase with an increase in Al3+ ion concentration. Meanwhile, the fluorescence intensity of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ almost showed no change. The detection limit was calculated as 11.63 μM, which was better than that for the MOF-based Al3+ ions in some reported examples in aqueous media and achieved through strong electrostatic interactions between HPU-24@Ru and Al3+ ions. Moreover, owing to the particularity of the tetrastyryl structure in HPU-24, HPU-24@Ru showed intriguing temperature-dependent emission behavior. This unique structure provides the composite material HPU-24@Ru with attributes for high-level information encryption that make it difficult for counterfeiters to identify all of the right decryption measures.

Abstract
Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) are some of the most promising nanomaterials for bioanalytical and biomedical applications. One important challenge to be still solved is how UCNPs can be optimally implemented into Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) biosensing and bioimaging for highly sensitive, wash-free, multiplexed, accurate, and precise quantitative analysis of biomolecules and biomolecular interactions. The many possible UCNP architectures composed of a core and multiple shells doped with different lanthanoid ions at different ratios, the interaction with FRET acceptors at different possible distances and orientations via biomolecular interaction, and the many and long-lasting energy transfer pathways from the initial UCNP excitation to the final FRET process and acceptor emission make the experimental determination of the ideal UCNP-FRET configuration for optimal analytical performance a real challenge. To overcome this issue, we have developed a fully analytical model that requires only a few experimental configurations to determine the ideal UCNP-FRET system within a few minutes. We verified our model via experiments using nine different Nd-, Yb-, and Er-doped core-shell-shell UCNP architectures within a prototypical DNA hybridization assay using Cy3.5 as an acceptor dye. Using the selected experimental input, the model determined the optimal UCNP out of all theoretically possible combinatorial configurations. An extreme economy of time, effort, and material was accompanied by a significant sensitivity increase, which demonstrated the powerful feat of combining a few selected experiments with sophisticated but rapid modeling to accomplish an ideal FRET biosensor.

Abstract
Molecular imaging-guided therapy was essential for realizing precise cancer intervention, while designing an imaging platform to achieve autofluorescence-free imaging for dual modal imaging-guided drug delivery remains a challenge. Near-infrared persistent luminescence nanoparticles (NIR PLNPs) were promising for tumor imaging due to no background interference from the tissue. Herein, a persistent luminescent metal-organic framework (PLNPs@MIL-100(Fe)) is prepared via a layer-by-layer method for dual-modal imaging-guided drug delivery. The PLNPs@MIL-100(Fe) exhibit NIR persistent luminescence emitting and T2-weighted signal, achieving precise in vivo dual-modal imaging of tumor-bearing mice by providing high spatial resolution MR imaging and autofluorescence-free NIR imaging. The porous MIL-100(Fe) shell provides PLNPs@MIL-100(Fe) with up to 87.1% drug loading capacity and acid-triggered drug release for drug delivery. We envision that the proposed PLNPs@MIL-100(Fe) platform would provide an effective approach for precise tumor imaging and versatile drug delivery.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) with high brightness, small sizes, good hydro-dispersivity, and intrinsic surface-functional groups are desirable in biological applications. In this work, Cr3+-doped zinc gallogermanates Zn1+xGa2-2xGexO4:Cr (ZGGC) PLNPs were hydrothermally synthesized via 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) as an additive, or APTES and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as two co-additives. Addition of APTES not only dramatically enhances the 696 nm NIR luminescence intensity, but also obviously decreases the particle size and introduces amino groups. In particular, thex= 0.1 series ZGGC (ZGGC0.1) with the addition of n moles equivalent APTES (ZGGC0.1-nA) had smaller particle sizes than thex= 0.2 counterpart (ZGGC0.2-nA). The NIR afterglow intensities increased with the APTES introduction. The ZGGC0.2-2.5A sample (also named as ZGGC, Si, -NH2) exhibited maximum luminescence intensities both in solid and aqueous states. With APTES, Si atom is doped and -NH2groups are modified, the trap depth and density become larger, and the afterglow intensities and decay time are significantly enhanced. More notably, co-addition of CTAB (ZGGC0.2-2.5A-C) (also named as ZGGC, Si, -NH2') further enhances hydro-dispersivity and luminescence intensity, decreases particle sizes, and results in more prominent amino groups. The trap density is drastically higher than that without CTAB (i.e. ZGGC0.2-2.5A). Change of Cr3+microenvironment in the crystal and more defects introduction contribute to the enhanced brightness. As expected, the ZGGC,Si,-NH2' PLNPs possess excellent biocompatibility, deep tissue penetration and distinguished bioimaging properties, and rechargeability with orange LED light. The ZGGC,Si,-NH2' PLNPs should provide to be an excellent nanomaterial for various functionalization and bioimaging applications.

Abstract
Photocatalysts for regeneration of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) usually work with continuous lighting and electron mediators, which causes impracticability under dark conditions, risk of NADH reoxidation, and complex separation. To solve these problems, we present a new catalyst of tiny Pt nanoparticles photodeposited on chromium-doped zinc gallate (CZGO@Pt). Upon being light-triggered, the photogenerated electrons are stored in the traps of CZGO and then gradually released and transferred by Pt to directly reduce NAD+ after stoppage of illumination. Three lighting modes are compared to demonstrate the feasibility and advantage of this light-triggered dark catalysis. Within 4 h of reaction, the in-the-dark NADH yield reaches 75.0% under prelighting CZGO@5%Pt and it reaches 80.0% under prelighting CZGO@5%Pt and triethanolamine (TEOA). However, the NADH yield is only 53.5% under continuous lighting of CZGO@5%Pt, TEOA, and NAD+. Consequently, the light-triggered dark catalytic regeneration of NADH not only saves energy and operates easily but also significantly elevates the NADH yield. It thus would secure wide interests and applications in places where no light or only intermittent light is available.

Abstract
Employing long-lived luminescent materials to design a chemical sensing platform can eliminate real-time excitation and background fluorescence. However, the realization of long-lived emissions in aqueous media was limited to transition-metal complexes, doped quantum dots, organic crystals, and inorganic persistent phosphors, which suffer from the drawbacks of large size, expensive elements, and poor dispersibility. In this work, phosphorescent carbon dots (CDs) were covalently immobilized in a silica matrix (CDs@SiO2) to achieve afterglow emission in an aqueous dispersion. CDs@SiO2 with long lifetime (∼1.6 s) was utilized as an energy donor to fabricate nonradiative energy transfer systems with various organic dyes through the surface micelle self-assembly method. Benefiting from the high energy transfer efficiency between CDs@SiO2 and organic dyes, multicolor afterglow emissions were successfully obtained in aqueous media. As a proof of concept, a ratiometric phosphorescent probe using CDs@SiO2 as a donor and Hg2+-responsive rhodamine derivative as an acceptor was designed. Hg2+ triggered the energy transfer process between the donor-acceptor pair, leading to the sensitive detection of Hg2+ ions. The work presented here provides opportunities to develop chemical sensors with low background interferences and easily recognizable signals.

Abstract
Lung cancer is nowadays among the most prevalent diseases worldwide and features the highest mortality rate among various cancers, indicating that early diagnosis of the disease is of paramount importance. Given that the conventional methods of cancer detection are expensive and time-consuming, special attention has been paid to the provision of less expensive and faster techniques. In recent years, the dramatic advances in nanotechnology and the development of various nanomaterials have led to activities in this context. Recent studies indicate that the graphene oxide (GO) nanomaterial has high potential in the design of nano biosensors for lung cancer detection owing to its unique properties. In the current article, a nano biosensor based on a DNA-GO nanohybrid is introduced to detect deletion mutations causing lung cancer. In this method, mutations were detected using a FAM-labeled DNA probe with fluorescence spectrometry. GO was synthesized according to Hummers' method and examined and confirmed using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectrometry and UV-vis spectrometry methods and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images.

Abstract
X-ray luminescence is an optical phenomenon in which chemical compounds known as scintillators can emit short-wavelength light upon the excitation of X-ray photons. Since X-rays exhibit well-recognized advantages of deep penetration toward tissues and a minimal autofluorescence background in biological samples, X-ray luminescence has been increasingly becoming a promising optical tool for tackling the challenges in the fields of imaging, biosensing, and theragnostics. In recent years, the emergence of nanocrystal scintillators have further expanded the application scenarios of X-ray luminescence, such as high-resolution X-ray imaging, autofluorescence-free detection of biomarkers, and noninvasive phototherapy in deep tissues. Meanwhile, X-ray luminescence holds great promise in breaking the depth dependency of deep-seated lesion treatment and achieving synergistic radiotherapy with phototherapy.In this Account, we provide an overview of recent advances in developing advanced X-ray luminescence for applications in imaging, biosensing, theragnostics, and optogenetics neuromodulation. We first introduce solution-processed lead halide all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystal scintillators that are able to convert X-ray photons to multicolor X-ray luminescence. We have developed a perovskite nanoscintillator-based X-ray detector for high-resolution X-ray imaging of the internal structure of electronic circuits and biological samples. We further advanced the development of flexible X-ray luminescence imaging using solution-processable lanthanide-doped nanoscintillators featuring long-lived X-ray luminescence to image three-dimensional irregularly shaped objects. We also outline the general principles of high-contrast in vivo X-ray luminescence imaging which combines nanoscintillators with functional biomolecules such as aptamers, peptides, and antibodies. High-quality X-ray luminescence nanoprobes were engineered to achieve the high-sensitivity detection of various biomarkers, which enabled the avoidance of interference from the biological matrix autofluorescence and photon scattering. By marrying X-ray luminescence probes with stimuli-responsive materials, multifunctional theragnostic nanosystems were constructed for on-demand synergistic gas radiotherapy with excellent therapeutic effects. By taking advantage of the capability of X-rays to penetrate the skull, we also demonstrated the development of controllable, wireless optogenetic neuromodulation using X-ray luminescence probes while obviating damage from traditional optical fibers. Furthermore, we discussed in detail some challenges and future development of X-ray luminescence in terms of scintillator synthesis and surface modification, mechanism studies, and their other potential applications to provide useful guidance for further advancing the development of X-ray luminescence.

Abstract
Persistent luminescence is a unique visual phenomenon that occurs after cessation of excitation light irradiation or following oxidization of luminescent molecules. The energy stored within the molecule is released in a delayed manner, resulting in luminescence that can be maintained for seconds, minutes, hours, or even days. Organic persistent luminescence materials (OPLMs) are highly robust and their facile modification and assembly into biocompatible nanostructures makes them attractive tools for in vivo bioimaging, whilst offering an alternative to conventional fluorescence imaging materials for biomedical applications. In this review, we give attention to the existing limitations of each class of OPLM-based molecular bioimaging probes based on their luminescence mechanisms, and how recent research progress has driven efforts to circumvent their shortcomings. We discuss the multifunctionality-focused design strategies, and the broad biological application prospects of these molecular probes. Furthermore, we provide insights into the next generation of OPLMs being developed for bioimaging techniques.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising localized cancer treatment modality. It has been used successfully to treat a range of dermatological conditions with comparable efficacy to conventional treatments. However, some drawbacks limit the clinical utility of PDT in treating deep-seated tumors. Notably, the penetration limitation of UV and visible light, commonly applied to activate photosensitizers, makes PDT incompetent in treating deep-seated tumors. Development in light delivery technologies, especially fiber optics, led to improved clinical strategies for accessing deep tissues for irradiation. However, PDT efficacy issues remained partly due to light penetration limitations. In this review, we first summarized the current PDT applications for deep-seated tumor treatment. Then, the most recent progress in advanced techniques to overcome the light penetration limitation in PDT, including using functional nanomaterials that can either self-illuminate or be activated by near-infrared (NIR) light and X-rays as transducers, and implantable light delivery devices were discussed. Finally, current challenges and future opportunities of these technologies were discussed, which we hope may inspire the development of more effective techniques to enhance PDT efficacy against deep-seated tumors.

Abstract
Persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) possess advantages for high-sensitivity bioimaging and continuous photodynamic therapy (PDT) because they can emit persistent luminescence (PerL) after excitation ceases. However, PLNPs are limited to single-wavelength emission, which can only efficiently realize one of the functions of bioimaging or PDT. In addition, most PLNPs are excited by shallow tissue penetrating excitation light, which makes it difficult to achieve repeatable in vivo applications with high efficiency. Herein, X-ray-excited PLNPs (Zn3Ga2Ge2O10:Cr3+,Mn2+, ZGGCM) with dual emission for in vivo X-rays repeatedly activated PerL imaging and tumor PDT are reported for the first time. ZGGCM exhibits dual-emission peaks after X-ray excitation/re-excitation, located at 698 nm and 532 nm, respectively. Additionally, ZGGCM is modified with the photosensitizer rose bengal (RB) to construct a dual-functional nanoplatform based on PerL imaging and PDT. The results indicate that the PerL emission peak (698 nm) of Cr3+ ions in ZGGCM possesses excellent near-infrared (NIR) PerL imaging performance, and the green PerL emission peak (532 nm) of Mn2+ ions can activate RB effectively and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby causing a significant antitumor effect. This unique dual-functional nanoplatform is expected to further promote the application of PLNPs in the integration of efficient tumor diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Herein, we report an activatable near-infrared (NIR) afterglow theranostic prodrug that circumvents high background noise interference caused by external light excitation. The prodrug can release hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT) in response to the high intratumoral peroxynitrite level associated with immunogenic cell death (ICD), and synchronously activate afterglow signal to monitor the drug release process and cold-to-hot tumor transformation. The prodrug itself is an ICD inducer achieved by photodynamic therapy (PDT). PDT initiates ICD and recruits first-arrived neutrophils to secrete peroxynitrite to trigger HCPT release. Intriguingly, we demonstrate that HCPT can significantly amplify PDT-mediated ICD process. The prodrug thus shows a self-sustainable ICD magnification effect by establishing an "ICD-HCPT release-amplified ICD" cycling loop. In vivo studies demonstrate that the prodrug can eradicate existing tumors and prevent further tumor recurrence through antitumor immune response.
