Abstract
It is of great importance to have sensitive and accurate detection of cis-diol-containing biologically related substances because of their important functions in the research fields of metabolomics, glycomics, and proteomics. Boronic acids can specifically and reversibly interact with 1,2- or 1,3-diols to form five or six cyclic esters. Based on this unique property, boronic acid-based materials have been used as synthetic receptors for the specific recognition and detection of cis-diol-containing species. This review critically summarizes the recent advances with boronic acid-based materials as recognition elements and signal labels for the detection of cis-diol-containing biological species, including ribonucleic acids, glycans, glycoproteins, bacteria, exosomes, and tumor cells. We also address the challenges and future perspectives for developing versatile boronic acid-based materials with various promising applications.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 293:122456. [PMID: 36773420 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2023.122456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Enzyme mimetics have been widely applied on H2O2 assay, but it is still challenging and interesting to realize the sensitive detection for ultra-trace H2O2. Here, an ultrasensitive Raman assay method based on novel WO3@IP6-Fe3+ enzyme mimetics with peroxidase-like activity was established. WO3 microspheres (MSs) were found to have weak peroxidase-like activity, and the combination of IP6-Fe3+ and WO3 can produce stronger activity. WO3@IP6-Fe3+ MSs showed polyhedron-like structure, uniform size, and smooth surface. Although WO3@IP6-Fe3+ enzyme mimetics have low catalytic efficiency and high absorbance background, the proposed Raman method can bypass the above problems. In Raman method, high concentration of WO3@IP6-Fe3+ can be used to overcome low catalytic efficiency without high absorbance background. Moreover, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine oxide has prominent characteristic Raman peak at 1608 cm-1, greatly improving the sensitivity and eliminating interference of impurities. Due to the high sensitivity and low background, Raman assay showed the ultra-low limit of detection (5.49 × 10-15 M), which was 4-7 orders of magnitude lower than other detection methods. The ultrasensitive Raman assay not only provided the possibility for the enzyme mimetics-based detection of ultra-trace H2O2, but also enable the enzyme mimetics with low activity to be applied.

Abstract
ZnSe semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) with a size comparable to their Bohr radius are synthesized, and the native capping agents with long hydrocarbon tails are replaced with short thiocyanate (SCN) ligands through a ligand exchange method. The structural dynamics of SCN ligands on the surface of ZnSe NCs in solution is investigated by ultrafast infrared spectroscopy. Vibrational population relaxation of SCN ligands is accelerated due to the specific interaction with the positively charged sites on the surface of NCs. The orientational anisotropy of the bound SCN ligands decayed at a rate much faster than that in the control solution containing Zn2+ cations. From the wobbling-in-the-cone model analysis, we found that the SCN ligand undergoes wobbling orientational diffusion with a relatively large cone semiangle on the surface of ZnSe NCs, and the overall orientational diffusion of bound SCN is found to be strongly dependent on the size of ZnSe NCs.

Abstract
Nitrogen doping and amino group functionalization through chemical modification lead to strong electron donation. Applying these processes to a large π-conjugated system of graphene quantum dot (GQD)-based materials as electron donors increases the charge transfer efficiency of nitrogen-doped amino acid-functionalized GQDs (amino-N-GQDs), resulting in enhanced two-photon absorption, post-two-photon excitation (TPE) stability, TPE cross-sections, and two-photon luminescence through the radiative pathway when the lifetime decreases and the quantum yield increases. Additionally, it leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species through two-photon photodynamic therapy (PDT). The sorted amino-N-GQDs prepared in this study exhibited excitation-wavelength-independent two-photon luminescence in the near-infrared region through TPE in the near-infrared-II region. The increase in size resulted in size-dependent photochemical and electrochemical efficacy, increased photoluminescence quantum yield, and efficient two-photon PDT. Therefore, the sorted amino-N-GQDs can be applicable as two-photon contrast probes to track and localize analytes in in-depth two-photon imaging executed in a biological environment along with two-photon PDT to eliminate infectious or multidrug-resistant microbes.

Abstract
Fluorescence microscopy has become a critical tool for researchers to understand biological processes at the cellular level. Micrographs from fixed and live-cell imaging procedures feature in a plethora of scientific articles for the field of cell biology, but the complexities of fluorescence microscopy as an imaging tool can sometimes be overlooked or misunderstood. This review seeks to cover the three fundamental considerations when designing fluorescence microscopy experiments: (1) hardware availability; (2) amenability of biological models to fluorescence microscopy; and (3) suitability of imaging agents for intended applications. This review will help equip the reader to make judicious decisions when designing fluorescence microscopy experiments that deliver high-resolution and informative images for cell biology.

Abstract
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are a subset of fluorescent nanomaterials that have gained recent interest due to their photoluminescence properties and low toxicity and biocompatibility features for bioanalysis and bioimaging. However, it is still a challenge to prepare highly near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent GQDs using a facile pathway. In this study, NIR GQDs were synthesized from the biomass-derived organic molecule cis-cyclobutane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid via one-step pyrolysis. The resulting GQDs were then characterized by various analytical methods such as UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Moreover, the photostability and stability over a wide pH range were also investigated, which indicated the excellent stability of the prepared GQDs. Most importantly, two peaks were found in the fluorescence emission spectra of the GQDs, one of which was located in the NIR region of about 860 nm. Finally, the GQDs were applied for cell imaging with human breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, and cytotoxicity analysis with mouse macrophage cell line, RAW 246.7. The results showed that the GQDs entered the cells through endocytosis on the fluorescence images and were not toxic to the cells up to a concentration of 200 μg/mL. Thus, the developed GQDs could be a potential effective fluorescent bioimaging agent. Finally, the GQDs depicted fluorescence quenching when treated with mercury metal ions, indicating that the GQDs could be used for mercury detection in biological samples as well.

Abstract
A novel ferrocene-linked metal-covalent organic polymer (MCOP-NFC) was synthesized through the Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction of 1,1'-diacetyl ferrocene and tris(4-formylphenyl)amine. MCOP-NFC acts as a highly efficient artificial enzyme for mimicking peroxidase, and shows good stability in harsh chemical environments including strong bases and acids, and boiling water. Based on the peroxidase-like activity of MCOP-NFC, a highly sensitive dual channel detection method for hydrogen peroxide was developed. For the colorimetric detection strategy, the limit of detection (LOD) reached 2.1 μM, while the limit of detection was found to be as low as 0.08 μM based on the electrochemical detection channel. This study offers a new strategy for the development of an enzyme mimetic on the basis of the covalent assembly of nanostructures, and the proposed electrochemical-colorimetric sensor for H2O2 detection has great potential for applications in biology and biomedicine.

Abstract
Due to the proliferative cancer rates, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, autoimmune diseases and a plethora of infections across the globe, it is essential to introduce strategies that can rapidly and specifically detect the ultralow concentrations of relevant biomarkers, pathogens, toxins and pharmaceuticals in biological matrices. Considering these pathophysiologies, various research works have become necessary to fabricate biosensors for their early diagnosis and treatment, using nanomaterials like quantum dots (QDs). These nanomaterials effectively ameliorate the sensor performance with respect to their reproducibility, selectivity as well as sensitivity. In particular, graphene quantum dots (GQDs), which are ideally graphene fragments of nanometer size, constitute discrete features such as acting as attractive fluorophores and excellent electro-catalysts owing to their photo-stability, water-solubility, biocompatibility, non-toxicity and lucrativeness that make them favorable candidates for a wide range of novel biomedical applications. Herein, we reviewed about 300 biomedical studies reported over the last five years which entail the state of art as well as some pioneering ideas with respect to the prominent role of GQDs, especially in the development of optical, electrochemical and photoelectrochemical biosensors. Additionally, we outline the ideal properties of GQDs, their eclectic methods of synthesis, and the general principle behind several biosensing techniques.

Abstract
Golgi oxidative stress is significantly associated with the occurrence and progression of hypertension. Notably, the concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is directly proportional to the degree of Golgi oxidative stress. Therefore, based on a novel Golgi-targeting phenylsulfonamide group, we developed a two-photon (TP) fluorescent probe, Np-Golgi, for in situ H2O2 ratiometric imaging in living systems. The phenylsulfonamide moiety effectively assists Np-Golgi in the precise location of Golgi apparatus. In addition, the raw material of phenylsulfonamide is easily available, and chemical modification is easily implemented. By application of Np-Golgi, we explored the generation of H2O2 during Golgi oxidative stress, and also successfully revealed increases on the levels of Golgi H2O2 in the kidneys of mice with hypertension. This work provides an ideal tool to monitor Golgi oxidative stress for the first time and novel drug targets for the future treatment of hypertension.

Abstract
Two-photon fluorescence microscopy has become an indispensable technique for cellular imaging. Whereas most two-photon fluorescent probes rely on well-known fluorophores, here we report a new fluorophore for bioimaging, namely azulene. A chemodosimeter, comprising a boronate ester receptor motif conjugated to an appropriately substituted azulene, is shown to be an effective two-photon fluorescent probe for reactive oxygen species, showing good cell penetration, high selectivity for peroxynitrite, no cytotoxicity, and excellent photostability.

Abstract
Nanotheranostics, combing diagnostic and therapeutic components in an all-in-one nanomaterial, possess exciting potentials for precision nanomedicine. However, a major obstacle for current nanotheranostics to enter preclinical and/or clinical trials is the intrinsic toxicities of these nanomaterials. As an emerging biomaterial, the bioinspired DNA nanostructure shows advantages for constructing better nanotheranostics due to its excellent features, including native biocompatibility, full programmability, and ready accessibility. In this feature article, we highlight recent advances in the design of DNA-nanostructure-based diagnostics and/or therapeutics capable of specifically responding to biological stimuli in a dynamic way, with a particular focus on the design mechanism, responsive performance, and potential for preclinical and/or clinical trials in personalized theranostics.

Abstract
Febrile seizure (FS), a frequently encountered seizure disorder in pediatric populations, can cause hippocampus damage. It has been elucidated that sulfur dioxide (SO2) content is overproduced during the development of FS and related brain injury. Thus, monitoring in situ the level of endogenous SO2 in FS-related models is helpful to estimate the pathogenesis of FS-induced brain injury, but the effect detection method remains to be explored. Herein, we developed a two-photon energy transfer cassette based on an acedan-anthocyanidin scaffold, TP-Ratio-SO2, allowing us to achieve this purpose. TP-Ratio-SO2 specifically responds to SO2 derivatives (HSO3-/SO32-) in an ultrafast fashion (less than 3 s), and HSO3-/SO32- can be sensitively determined with a detection limit of 26 nM. Moreover, it exhibits significant changes in two well-resolved fluorescence emissions (Δλ = 140 nm) by reacting with HSO3-/SO32-, behaving as a ratiometric fluorescent sensor. Importantly, ratiometric imaging of endogenous SO2 derivatives generation in hyperpyretic U251 cells and in a rat model of FS-treated hippocampus damage was successfully carried out by TP-Ratio-SO2, demonstrating that it may be a promising tool for studying the role of SO2 in FS-associated neurological diseases.

Abstract
The development of an efficient ratiometric two-photon fluorescence imaging probe is crucial for in situ monitoring of biothiol cysteine (Cys) in biosystems, but the current reported intramolecular charge transfer (ICT)-based one suffers from serious overlap between the shifted emission bands. To address this issue, we herein for the first time constructed an ICT-mediated two-photon excited fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TP-FRET) system consisting of a two-photon fluorogen benzo[ h]chromene and a Cys-responsive benzoxadiazole-analogue dye. Different from a previous mechanism that utilized single two-photon fluorogen to acquire a ratiometric signal, ICT was used to switch on the TP-FRET process of the energy transfer dyad by eliciting an absorption shift of benzoxadiazole with Cys to modulate the spectral overlap level between benzo[ h]chromene emission and benzoxadiazole absorption, resulting in two well-separated emission signal changes with large emission wavelength shift (120 nm), fixed two-photon excitation maximum (750 nm), and significant variation in fluorescence ratio (over 36-fold). Therefore, it can be successfully employed to ratiometrically visualize Cys in HeLa cells and liver tissues. Importantly, this new ICT-mediated TP-FRET integration mechanism would be convenient for designing ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probes with two well-resolved emission spectra suitable for high resolution two-photon fluorescence bioimaging.

Abstract
We describe a facile method to synthesize a new type of catalyst by electrodepositing Ag nanocrystals (AgNCs) on the different polymer dyes, Poly (methylene blue) (PMB) or Poly (4-(2-Pyridylazo)-Resorcinol) (PAR) modified graphene‑carbon spheres (GS) hybrids. The self-assembled GS take dual advantages of carbon spheres and graphene. Carbon spheres acts as nano-spacers prevent the aggregation of graphene and guarantee the fast electron transfer of GS. Secondly, polymerized dyes used here are beneficial for AgNCs growing as a linker. The effects of dyes on the growth habits, morphologies and catalytic properties for AgNCs were investigated. A novel electrochemical nonenzymatic sensor for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) detection is fabricated based on the Ag/Polymer dyes/GS ternary composites modified glass carbon electrode (GCE) for the first time. It was found that the proposed electrodes, especially for Ag/PMB/GS/GCE, displayed a peculiar electrocatalytic activity towards H2O2 reduction synergistically as compared to Ag/PAR/GS/GCE or Ag/GS/GCE alone. Ag/PMB/GS/GCE showed a linear response over the H2O2 concentration range of 0.5 to 1112 μM. The detection limit and sensitivity is 0.15 μM and 400 μA mM-1 cm-2, respectively. These outstanding results enable the practical application of Ag/PMB/GS/GCE for the H2O2 tracking released from MCF-7 (human breast cancer cells) with satisfactory results.

Abstract
Exploring and understanding biological and pathological changes are of great significance for early diagnosis and therapy of diseases. Optical sensing and imaging approaches have experienced major progress in this field. Particularly, an emergence of various functional optical nanoprobes has provided enhanced sensitivity, specificity, targeting ability, as well as multiplexing and multimodal capabilities due to improvements in their intrinsic physicochemical and optical properties. However, one of the biggest challenges of conventional optical nanoprobes is their absolute intensity-dependent signal readout, which causes inaccurate sensing and imaging results due to the presence of various analyte-independent factors that can cause fluctuations in their absolute signal intensity. Ratiometric measurements provide built-in self-calibration for signal correction, enabling more sensitive and reliable detection. Optimizing nanoprobe designs with ratiometric strategies can surmount many of the limitations encountered by traditional optical nanoprobes. This review first elaborates upon existing optical nanoprobes that exploit ratiometric measurements for improved sensing and imaging, including fluorescence, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photoacoustic nanoprobes. Next, a thorough discussion is provided on design strategies for these nanoprobes, and their potential biomedical applications for targeting specific biomolecule populations (e.g. cancer biomarkers and small molecules with physiological relevance), for imaging the tumor microenvironment (e.g. pH, reactive oxygen species, hypoxia, enzyme and metal ions), as well as for intraoperative image guidance of tumor-resection procedures.

Abstract
An “on–off–on” fluorescent phosphorus/nitrogen co-doped carbon dot (PNCD) probe was explored for the determination of Cr(vi) and dopamine resulting from the inner filter effect (IFE). The blue-emitting carbon dots with high quantum yields of 25.47% as well as a narrow size distribution were synthesized by a rapid, convenient route using H3PO4 and ethylenediamine as the precursors without any surface passivation. A wide linear region in the range of 7–70 μM with a detection limit of 0.71 μM was achieved for Cr(vi). Moreover, the proper reductants can weaken the inner filter effect to recover the PNCD fluorescence by converting Cr(vi) into Cr(iii). Therefore, the PNCDs/Cr(vi) hybrid could also be used as an “off–on” fluorescent probe for detecting dopamine (DA) with a detection limit of 0.49 μM. Consequently, the PNCDs could serve as a powerful fluorescent bi-sensor for detection of both Cr(vi) and DA in practical applications. An “on–off–on” fluorescent phosphorus/nitrogen co-doped carbon dot (PNCD) probe was explored for the determination of Cr(vi) and dopamine resulting from the inner filter effect (IFE).![]()

Abstract
Graphene oxides (GO) are attracting much attention in the diagnosis and therapy of the subcutaneous tumor as a novel biomaterial, but its diagnosis to tissue dysfunction is yet to be found. Here, a novel application of GO for diagnosis of renal dysfunction via contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) is proposed. In order to serve as contrast-enhanced agent, Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) are composited on the surface of GO to promote its X-ray absorption, and then simvastatin is coinjected for eliminating in vivo toxicity induced by AgNPs. It is found that GO/AgNPs can enhance the imaging of CT into the lung, liver, and kidney of mice for a long circulation time (≈24 h) and a safety profile in vivo in the presence of simvastatin. Interestingly, the lower dose of GO/AgNPs (≈0.5 mg per kg bw) shows an excellent performance for CT imaging of renal perfusion, and visually exhibits the right renal dysfunction in model mice. Hence, this work suggests that graphene nanoparticles will play a vital role for the future medical translational development including drug carrier, biosensing, and disease therapy.

Abstract
Assisted with polyethylenimine, 4.0 L of water-soluble AgInS2 quantum dots (AIS QDs) were successfully synthesized in an electric pressure cooker. As-prepared QDs exhibit yellow emission with a photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield up to 32%. The QDs also show excellent water/buffer stability. The highly luminescent AIS QDs are used to explore their dual-functional behavior: detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)/glucose and cell imaging. The amino-functionalized AIS QDs show high sensitivity and specificity for H2O2 and glucose with detection limits of 0.42 and 0.90 μM, respectively. A linear correlation was established between PL intensity and concentration of H2O2 in the ranges of 0.5-10 μM and 10-300 μM, while the linear ranges were 1-10 μM and 10-1000 μM for detection of glucose. The AIS QDs reveal negligible cytotoxicity on HeLa cells. Furthermore, the luminescence of AIS QDs gives the function of optical imaging.

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
α-Boryl ethers, carbonates, and acetals, readily prepared from the corresponding alcohols that are accessed through ketone diboration, react rapidly with hydrogen peroxide to release alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones through the collapse of hemiacetal intermediates. Experiments with α-boryl acetals containing a latent fluorophore clearly demonstrate that cargo can be released inside cells in the presence of exogenous or endogenous hydrogen peroxide. These experiments show that this protocol can be used for drug activation in an oxidative environment without generating toxic byproducts.
