Abstract
Membrane tension is an important physical parameter of describing cellular homeostasis, and it is widely used in the study of cellular processes involving membrane deformation and reorganization, such as cell migration, cell spreading, and cell division. Despite the importance of membrane tension, direct measurement remains difficult. In this work, we developed a ratiometric fluorescent probe sensitive to membrane tension by adjusting the carbon chain structure based on polarity-sensitive fluorophores. The probe is sensitive to changes in membrane tension after cells were subjected to physical or chemical stimuli, such as osmotic shock, lipid peroxidation, and mechanical stress. When the polarity of the plasma membrane increases (the green/red ratio decreases) and the membrane tension increases, the relative magnitude of the membrane tension can be quantitatively calculated by fluorescence ratio imaging. Thus, the probe proved to be an efficient and sensitive membrane tension probe.

Abstract
To promote the application of time-resolved fluorescence in oxidation determination of edible vegetable oil, fluorescence lifetime of chlorophyll α in oxidized edible vegetable oils was recorded and analyzed by simulated microenvironment experiments and spectral methods. It was showed that fluorescence lifetime of chlorophyll α decreased with the increase of polarity in the early stage of oxidation, and increased with the increase of viscosity in the later stage of oxidation. Conjugation effect and hydrogen bonding existed in the microenvironment of oxidized edible vegetable oil were considered to be the factors leading to the increase of fluorescence lifetime. The change mechanism of fluorescence lifetime in oxidized edible vegetable oil was supplied, which was considered to be strong support for the application of time-resolved fluorescence.

Abstract
Fluorescence lifetime imaging has been a powerful tool for biomedical research. Recently, fluorescence lifetime-based multiplexing imaging has expanded imaging channels by using probes that harbor the same spectral channels and distinct excited state lifetime. While it is desirable to control the excited state lifetime of any given fluorescent probes, the rational control of fluorescence lifetimes remains a challenge. Herein, we chose boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) as a model system and provided chemical strategies to regulate the fluorescence lifetime of its derivatives with varying spectral features. We find electronegativity of structural substituents at the 8' and 5' positions is important to control the lifetime for the green-emitting and red-emitting BODIPY scaffolds. Mechanistically, such influences are exerted via the photo-induced electron transfer and the intramolecular charge transfer processes for the 8' and 5' positions of BODIPY, respectively. Based on these principles, we have generated a group of BODIPY probes that enable imaging experiments to separate multiple targets using fluorescence lifetime as a signal. In addition to BODIPY, we envision modulation of electronegativity of chemical substituents could serve as a feasible strategy to achieve rational control of fluorescence lifetime for a variety of small molecule fluorophores.

Abstract
PURPOSE Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a challenging subtype characterized by the absence of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression. Standard treatment options are limited, and approximately 45% of patients develop distant metastasis. Ferroptosis, a regulated form of cell death triggered by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress, has emerged as a potential targeted therapy for TNBC. METHODS This study utilizes a multifaceted approach to investigate the induction of ferroptosis as a therapeutic strategy for TNBC. It explores metabolic alterations, redox imbalance, and oncogenic signaling pathways to understand their roles in inducing ferroptosis, characterized by lipid peroxidation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and altered cellular morphology. Critical pathways such as Xc-/GSH/GPX4, ACSL4/LPCAT3, and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) are examined for their regulatory roles in ferroptosis and their potential dysregulation contributing to cancer cell survival and resistance. RESULTS Inducing ferroptosis has been shown to inhibit tumor growth, enhance the efficacy of conventional therapies, and overcome drug resistance in TNBC. Lipophilic antioxidants, GPX4 inhibitors, and inhibitors of the Xc- system have been demonstrated to be potential ferroptosis inducers. Additionally, targeting the NRF2 pathway and exploring other ferroptosis regulators, such as ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1), and the PERK-eIF2α-ATF4-CHOP pathway, may offer novel therapeutic avenues. CONCLUSION Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms, optimize therapeutic strategies, and evaluate the safety and efficacy of ferroptosis-targeted therapies in TNBC treatment. Overall, targeting ferroptosis represents a promising approach to improving treatment outcomes and overcoming the challenges posed by TNBC.

Abstract
Abnormal neuronal polarity leads to early deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD) by affecting the function of axons. Precise and rapid evaluation of polarity changes is very important for the early prevention and diagnosis of AD. However, due to the limitations of existing detection methods, the mechanism related to how neuronal polarity changes in AD is unclear. Herein, we reported a ratiometric fluorescent probe characterized by neutral molecule to disclose the polarity changes in nerve cells and the brain of APP/PS1 mice. Cy7-K showed a sensitive and selective ratiometric fluorescence response to polarity. Remarkably, unlike conventional intramolecular charge transfer fluorescent probes, the fluorescence quantum yield of Cy7-K in highly polar solvents is higher than that in low polar solvents due to the transition of neutral quinones to aromatic zwitterions. Using the ratiometric fluorescence imaging, we found that beta-amyloid protein (Aβ) inhibits the expression of histone deacetylase 6, thereby increasing the amount of acetylated Tau protein (AC-Tau) and ultimately enhancing cell polarity. There was a high correlation between polarity and AC-Tau. Furthermore, Cy7-K penetrated the blood-brain barrier to image the polarity of different brain regions and confirmed that APP/PS1 mice had higher polarity than Wild-type mice. The probe Cy7-K will be a promising tool for assessing the progression of AD development by monitoring polarity.

Abstract
To thoroughly understand ferroptosis's biological functions in living cells, it is crucial to investigate the polarity variations that occur during this unique Fe(II)-facilitated oxidative type of cell death. In this work, we report the development of a ratiometric probe (Po-P) to visualize the polarity changes in living cells and the inhibition effect during ferroptosis. The polarity-responsive fluorophore utilized by Po-P has a D-π-A-type structure. Based on theoretical calculations, ICT was proposed as the basis for Po-P's polarity-responsive mechanism. According to cell imaging results, Po-P had a desirable capacity for monitoring polarity fluctuations and erastin-induced ferroptosis. Furthermore, inhibition imaging revealed that dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) could potentially prevent polarity changes that occur during erastin-induced ferroptosis, just as vitamin E (VE). We anticipate that the probe Po-P could be a valuable tool to quickly monitor polarity fluctuations and inhibition effects during ferroptosis and create new medications for treating disorders related to ferroptosis.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a recently identified form of regulated cell death characterized by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Numerous functions for ferroptosis have been identified in physiological as well as pathological processes, most notably in the treatment of cancer. The intricate balance of redox homeostasis is profoundly altered during ferroptosis, leading to alteration in cellular microenvironment. One such microenvironment is viscosity among others such as pH, polarity, and temperature. Therefore, understanding the dynamics of ferroptosis associated viscosity levels within organelles is crucial. To date, there are a very few reviews that detects ferroptosis assessing reactive species. In this review, we have summarized organelle's specific fluorescent probes that detects dynamics of microviscosity during ferroptosis. Also, we offer the readers an insight of their design strategy, photophysics and associated bioimaging concluding with the future perspective and challenges in the related field.

Abstract
The compartmentalization effect of microheterogeneous systems, like surfactant aggregates, showcases altered optoelectronic properties of a perylene diimide-based chromogenic dye (PDI-Ala) compared to bulk water. The relatively hydrophobic microenvironment, poor hydration, and exceptionally large local concentration of dye molecules in the confined environment affect their interaction with target analytes. This realization intrigued us to investigate if micellization can modify the sensing properties (selectivity, sensitivity, response kinetics, output signal, etc.) of the encapsulated dye molecules in the aqueous medium. Response comparisons of PDI-Ala to the ionic analyte (Fe3+) and biomolecule (heparin) in aqueous and surfactant-bound states highlighted significant variations. Fe3+ interaction exhibited a "turn-off" fluorescence response in a water medium, while surfactant-bound conditions triggered "turn-on" fluorescence, enhancing selectivity at the micelle-water interface. Conversely, the native probe showed no interaction with heparin in water but displayed a turn-on fluorescence response in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micelles, indicating the transformation of a silent molecule into a turn-on fluorescence sensor. This study underscores the influence of micellar environments on dye molecules, altering the sensing responses and selectivity toward analytes, crucial for applications in understanding cellular pathways and toxicity mechanisms.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, as a new form of regulated cell death, is implicated in various physiological and pathological processes. Developing a single probe for an independent analysis of multiple analytes related to ferroptosis can provide more accurate information and simplify the detection procedures, but it faces great challenges. In this work, we develop a fluorescent probe for the simultaneous detection of GSH through ratiometric fluorescence response and microviscosity via a fluorescence lifetime model. Based on the reversible Michael addition reaction between GSH and unsaturated C═C bond, the probe responds reversibly to GSH with a ratiometric fluorescence variation and a fast response time (t1/2 = 4.7 s). At the same time, the probe is sensitive to environmental viscosity by changing its fluorescence lifetimes. The probe was applied to monitor the drug-induced ferroptosis process through both the classical Xc-/GSH/GPX4- and DHODH-mediated defense mechanisms. We hope that the probe will provide a useful molecular tool for the real-time live-cell imaging of GSH dynamics, which is benefit to unveiling related physiological and pathological processes.

Abstract
Ferroptosis represents a novel form of programmed cell death. Pan-cancer bioinformatics analysis indicates that identifying and modulating ferroptosis offer innovative approaches for preventing and treating diverse tumor pathologies. However, the precise detection of ferroptosis-related proteins via conventional wet-laboratory techniques remains a formidable challenge, largely due to the constraints of existing methodologies. These traditional approaches are not only labor-intensive but also financially burdensome. Consequently, there is an imperative need for the development of more sophisticated and efficient computational tools to facilitate the detection of these proteins. In this paper, we presented a XGBoost and multi-view features-based machine learning prediction method for predicting ferroptosis-related proteins, which was referred to as FRP-XGBoost. In this study, we explored four types of protein feature extraction methods and evaluated their effectiveness in predicting ferroptosis-related proteins using six of the most commonly used traditional classifiers. To enhance the representational power of the hybrid features, we employed a two-step feature selection technique to identify the optimal subset of features. Subsequently, we constructed a prediction model using the XGBoost algorithm. The FRP-XGBoost achieved an accuracy of 96.74 % in 10-fold cross-validation and a further accuracy of 91.52 % in an independent test. The implementation source code of FRP-XGBoost is available at https://github.com/linli5417/FRP-XGBoost.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of iron-dependent programmed cell death characterized by the dysregulation of iron metabolism and the accumulation of lipid peroxides. This nonapoptotic mode of cell death is implicated in various physiological and pathological processes. Recent findings have underscored its potential as an innovative strategy for cancer treatment, particularly against recalcitrant malignancies that are resistant to conventional therapies. This article focuses on ferroptosis-based therapeutic strategies for precision cancer treatment, covering the molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis, four major types of ferroptosis inducers and their inhibitory effects on diverse carcinomas, the detection of ferroptosis by fluorescent probes, and their implementation in image-guided therapy. These state-of-the-art tactics have manifested enhanced selectivity and efficacy against malignant carcinomas. Given that the administration of ferroptosis in cancer therapy is still at a burgeoning stage, some major challenges and future perspectives are discussed for the clinical translation of ferroptosis into precision cancer treatment.

Abstract
The concentration of aluminum ions (Al3+) is closely related to the ecological environment, food safety, and human health, with excessive accumulation of Al3+ causing irreversible damage to both the ecological balance and human health. Therefore, a fluorescent probe ABHS, based on aminobenzoylhydrazide Schiff-base, was designed and synthesized in one step with a high yield. ABHS can form a 1:1 coordination complex with Al3+ in a pure water system. It exhibits ultra-sensitive and accurate detection of Al3+ even at low concentration of Al3+, with the detection limit of 6.7 nM. Furthermore, ABHS demonstrated significant enhancement of specific fluorescence for Al3+, with rapid response speed, good stability, and robust resistance to interference. Importantly, ABHS has shown excellent detection and imaging capabilities even in complex real environmental samples, food samples, and living organisms.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs) participating in various cellular activities and are increasingly being emphasized. Fluorescence imaging provides powerful tool for dynamic tracking of LDs, however, most current LDs probes remain inconsistent performance such as low Photoluminescence Quantum Yield (PLQY), poor photostability and tedious washing procedures. Herein, a novel yellow-emissive carbon dot (OT-CD) has been synthesized conveniently with high PLQY up to 90%. Besides, OT-CD exhibits remarkable amphiphilicity and solvatochromic property with lipid-water partition coefficient higher than 2, which is much higher than most LDs probes. These characters enable OT-CD high brightness, stable and wash-free LDs probing, and feasible for in vivo imaging. Then, detailed observation of LDs morphological and polarity variation dynamically in different cellular states were recorded, including ferroptosis and other diseases processes. Furthermore, fast whole imaging of zebrafish and identified LD enrichment in injured liver indicate its further feasibility for in vivo application. In contrast to the reported studies to date, this approach provides a versatile conventional synthesis system for high-performance LDs targeting probes, combing the advantages of easy and high-yield production, as well as robust brightness and stability for long-term imaging, facilitating investigations into organelle interactions and LD-associated diseases.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a novel Fe(II)-mediated oxidative cell death form, and is closely related with endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Exploring the fluctuation of ER polarity during ferroptosis is highly important for the in-depth study of the biological roles of ER in ferroptosis. Herein, we present a ratiometric probe (BNS) for revealing the changes of the ER polarity in the living cells experiencing ferroptosis. BNS employed a D-π-A-π-D type structure as the polarity-sensitive fluorophore, and selected p-toluenesulfonamide as the ER-targeting unit. Theoretical calculations suggested that the response mechanism of BNS to polarity was based on ICT, and two ICT processes appeared when BNS was at excited state. Cell imaging results demonstrated that BNS possessed desirable ER-targeting capability, and erastin-induced ferroptosis could increase the ER polarity of the living cells. Moreover, similarly to vitamin E (VE) and deferoxamine (DFO), dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) could inhibit the changes of the ER polarity during erastin-induced ferroptosis. We expect that the probe could provide a convenient method to rapidly monitor ferroptosis and design novel drugs for the treatment of ferroptosis-relevant diseases.

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

Abstract
Novel high-performance fluorescent approaches have always significant demand for room-temperature detection of carbon monoxide (CO), which is highly toxic even at low concentration levels and is not easy to recognize due to its colorless and odorless nature. In this paper, we constructed a palladium-mediated fluorescence turn-on sensing platform (TPANN-Pd) for the recognition of CO at room temperature, revealing simultaneously quick response speed (<30 s), excellent selectivity, superior sensitivity, and low detection limit (∼160 nM for CORM-3, ∼1.7 ppb for CO vapor). Moreover, rapid detection and efficient removal (24%) from the air by naked-eye vision has been successfully realized based on TPANN-Pd supramolecular gels. Furthermore, the developed sensing platform was elucidated with low cytotoxicity and high cellular uptake, and it was successfully applied to CO imaging in living cells, providing real-time monitoring of potential CO-involved reactions in biological systems.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a newly discovered form of regulated cellular demise, characterized by the accumulation of intracellular oxidative stress that is dependent on iron. Ferroptosis plays a crucial role not only in the development and treatment of tumors but also in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases and illnesses related to ischemia-reperfusion injury. This mode of cell death possesses distinctive properties that differentiate it from other forms of cell death, including unique morphological changes at both the cellular and subcellular levels, as well as molecular features that can be detected using specific methods. The use of fluorescent probes has become an invaluable means of detecting ferroptosis, owing to their high sensitivity, real-time in situ monitoring capabilities, and minimal damage to biological samples. This review comprehensively elucidates the physiological mechanisms underlying ferroptosis, while also detailing the development of fluorescent probes capable of detecting ferroptosis-related active species across various cellular compartments, including organelles, the nucleus, and the cell membrane. Additionally, the review explores how the dynamic changes and location of active species from different cellular compartments can influence the ignition and execution of ferroptotic cell death. Finally, we discuss the future challenges and opportunities for imaging ferroptosis. We believe that this review will not only aid in the elucidation of ferroptosis's physiological mechanisms but also facilitate the identification of novel treatment targets and means of accurately diagnosing and treating ferroptosis-related diseases.

Abstract
The research of delayed fluorescence (DF) has been a hot topic in biological imaging. However, the development of analyte-triggered small molecule DF probes remains a considerable challenge. Herein a novel excited-state intramolecular proton transfer-delayed fluorescence (ESIPT-DF) approach to construct analyte-stimulated DF probes was reported. These new classes of ESIPT-DF luminophores were strategically designed and synthesized by incorporating 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole (HBT), a known ESIPT-based fluorophore, as acceptor with a series of classic donor moieties, which formed a correspondingly twisted donor-acceptor pair within each molecule. Thereinto, HBT-PXZ and HBT-PTZ exhibited significant ESIPT and DF characters with lifetimes of 5.37 and 3.65 μs in the solid state, respectively. Furthermore, a caged probe HBT-PXZ-Ga was developed by introducing a hydrophilic d-galactose group as the recognition unit specific for β-galactosidase (β-gal) and ESIPT-DF blocking agent and applied to investigate the influence of metal ions on β-gal activity on the surface of Streptococcus pneumoniae as a convenient tool. This ESIPT-DF "turn-on" approach is easily adaptable for the measurement of many different analytes using only a predictable modification on the caged group without modification of the core structure.

Abstract
As a vital parameter in living cells and tissues, the micro-environment is crucial for the living organisms. Significantly, organelles require proper micro-environment to achieve normal physiological processes, and the micro-environment in organelles can reflect the state of organelles in living cells. Moreover, some abnormal micro-environments in organelles are closely related to organelle dysfunction and disease development. So, visualizing and monitoring the variation of micro-environments in organelles is helpful for physiologists and pathologists to study the mechanisms of the relative diseases. Recently, a large variety of fluorescent probes was developed to study the micro-environments in living cells and tissues. However, the systematic and comprehensive reviews on the organelle micro-environment in living cells and tissues have rarely been published, which may hinder the research progress in the field of organic fluorescent probes. In this review, we will summarize the organic fluorescent probes for monitoring the microenvironment, such as viscosity, pH values, polarity, and temperature. Further, diverse organelles (mitochondria, lysosome, endoplasmic reticulum, cell membrane) about microenvironments will be displayed. In this process, the fluorescent probes about the "off-on" and ratiometric category (the diverse fluorescence emission) will be discussed. Moreover, the molecular designing, chemical synthesis, fluorescent mechanism, and the bio-applications of these organic fluorescent probes in cells and tissues will also be discussed. Significantly, the merits and defects of current microenvironment-sensitive probes are outlined and discussed, and the development tendency and challenges for this kind of probe are presented. In brief, this review mainly summarizes some typical examples and highlights the progress of organic fluorescent probes for monitoring micro-environments in living cells and tissues in recent research. We anticipate that this review will deepen the understanding of microenvironment in cells and tissues and facilitate the studies and development of physiology and pathology.

Abstract
Mitophagy is a vital cellular process playing vital roles in regulating cellular metabolism and mitochondrial quality control. Mitochondrial viscosity is a key microenvironmental index, closely associated with mitochondrial status. To monitor mitophagy and mitochondrial viscosity, three molecular rotors (Mito-1, Mito-2, and Mito-3) were developed. All probes contain a cationic quinolinium unit and a C12 chain so that they can tightly bind mitochondria and are not affected by the mitochondrial membrane potential. Optical studies showed that all probes are sensitive to viscosity changes with an off-on fluorescence response, and Mito-3 shows the best fluorescence enhancement. Bioimaging studies showed that all these probes can not only tightly locate and visualize mitochondria with near-infrared fluorescence but also effectively monitor the mitochondrial viscosity changes in cells. Moreover, Mito-3 was successfully applied to visualize the mitophagy process induced by starvation, and mitochondrial viscosity was found to show an increase during mitophagy. We expect Mito-3 to become a useful imaging tool for studying mitochondrial viscosity and mitophagy.

Novel Rigidochromic and Anti-Kasha Dual Emission Fluorophores Based on D-π-A Dyads as the Promising Materials for Potential Applications Ranging from Optoelectronics and Optical Sensing to Biophotonics and Medicine. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24065818.

Abstract
Today we see an increasing demand for new fluorescent materials exhibiting various sensory abilities due to their broad applicability ranging from the construction of flexible devices to bioimaging. In this paper, we report on the new fluorescent pigments AntTCNE, PyrTCNE, and PerTCNE which consist of 3-5 fused aromatic rings substituted with tricyanoethylene fragments forming D-π-A diad. Our studies reveal that all three compounds exhibit pronounced rigidochromic properties, i.e., strong sensitivity of their fluorescence to the viscosity of the local environment. We also demonstrate that our new pigments belong to a very rare type of organic fluorophores which do not obey the well-known empirical Kasha'rule stating that photoluminescence transition always occurs from the lowest excited state of an emitting molecule. This rare spectral feature of our pigments is accompanied by an even rarer capability of spectrally and temporally well-resolved anti-Kasha dual emission (DE) from both higher and lowest electronic states in non-polar solvents. We show that among three new pigments, PerTCNE has significant potential as the medium-bandgap non-fullerene electron acceptor. Such materials are now highly demanded for indoor low-power electronics and portable devices for the Internet-of-Things. Additionally, we demonstrate that PyrTCNE has been successfully used as a structural unit in template assembling of the new cyanoarylporphyrazine framework with 4 D-π-A dyads framing this macrocycle (Pyr4CN4Pz). Similarly to its structural unit, Pyr4CN4Pz is also the anti-Kasha fluorophore, exhibiting intensive DE in viscous non-polar medium and polymer films, which strongly depends on the polarity of the local environment. Moreover, our studies showed high photodynamic activity of this new tetrapyrrole macrocycle which is combined with its unique sensory capacities (strong sensitivity of its fluorescent properties to the local environmental stimuli such as viscosity and polarity. Thus, Pyr4CN4Pz can be considered the first unique photosensitizer that potentially enables the real-time combination of photodynamic therapy and double-sensory approaches which is very important for modern biomedicine.

Abstract
Gliomas are among the most common malignant tumors in the central nervous system and lead to poor life expectancy. However, the effective treatment of gliomas remains a considerable challenge. The recent development of near infrared (NIR) II (1000-1700 nm) theranostic agents has led to powerful strategies in diagnosis, targeted delivery of drugs, and accurate therapy. Because of the high capacity of NIR-II light in deep tissue penetration, improved spatiotemporal resolution can be achieved to facilitate the in vivo detection of gliomas via fluorescence imaging, and high contrast fluorescence imaging guided surgery can be realized. In addition to the precise imaging of tumors, drug delivery nano-platforms with NIR-II agents also allow the delivery process to be monitored in real-time. In addition, the combination of targeted drug delivery, photodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy in the NIR region significantly improves the therapeutic effect against gliomas. Thus, this mini-review summarizes the recent developments in NIR-II fluorescence-based theranostic agents for glioma treatment.
