Abstract
Fluorescence imaging is one of the most promising approaches to achieve intraoperative assessment of the tumor/normal tissue margins during cancer surgery. This is critical to improve the patients' prognosis, and therefore various molecular fluorescence imaging probes have been developed for the identification of cancer lesions during surgery. Among them, "activatable" fluorescence probes that react with cancer-specific biomarker enzymes to generate fluorescence signals have great potential for high-contrast cancer imaging due to their low background fluorescence and high signal amplification by enzymatic turnover. Over the past two decades, activatable fluorescence probes employing various fluorescence control mechanisms have been developed worldwide for this purpose. Furthermore, new biomarker enzymatic activities for specific types of cancers have been identified, enabling visualization of various types of cancers with high sensitivity and specificity. This Review focuses on recent advances in the design, function and characteristics of activatable fluorescence probes that target cancer-specific enzymatic activities for cancer imaging and also discusses future prospects in the field of activity-based diagnostics for cancer.

Abstract
The level of fluoride ions (F-) in the human body is closely related to various pathological and physiological states, and the rapid detection of F- is important for studying physiological processes and the early diagnosis of diseases. In this study, the detailed sensing mechanism of a novel high-efficiency probe (PBT) based on 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-benzothiazole derivatives towards F- has been fully investigated based on density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) methods. F- attacks the O-P bond of PBT to cleavage the dimethylphosphinothionyl group, and the potential products were evaluated by Gibbs free energy and spectroscopic analyses, which ultimately identified the product as HBT-Enol1 with an intramolecular hydrogen bond. Bond parameters, infrared vibrational spectroscopy and charge analysis indicate that the hydrogen bond is enhanced at the excited state (S1), favoring excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The mild energy barrier further evidences the occurrence of ESIPT. Combined with frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis, the fluorescence quenching of PBT was attributed to the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) mechanism and the fluorescence turn-on mechanism of the product was attributed to the ESIPT process of HBT-Enol1.

Abstract
The levels of Cu2+ and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) are the important indicators of the developed stage of the relative diseases. Herein, a binary ratio-fluorescent and smartphone-assisted visual strategy basing on 4'-aminomethyl-4, 5', 8-trimethylpsoralen (AMT) and the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine was developed. Under the action of Cu2+, the fluorescent molecule, 3-diaminophenazine (DAP) formed which can act as a fluorescent acceptor of the ratio-fluorescent sensor. The emission spectrum of AMT overlapped with the excitation spectrum of DAP and, thus, it can act as the fluorescent donor of the ratio-fluorescent sensor. With the increasing concentration of Cu2+ and ALP, the fluorescent intensity of AMT decreased and the fluorescent intensity of DAP increased. The dual-emission reverse change ratio-fluorescent sensor realized the sensitive detection Cu2+ and ALP with the detection limits of 2 nM and 0.03 U/mL, respectively. In addition, the acceptable recoveries were obtained when the Cu2+ and ALP in spiked samples were detected. Furthermore, the relative activity of ALP was assessed by increasing the concentrations of the inhibitor Na3VO4 and IC50 of 25 μM was obtained. Importantly, the target concentration-dependent color change of DAP allowed us to utilize R/B ratio values to design the smartphone-assisting visual detection model of Cu2+ and ALP activity with the detection limits of 0.1 μM and 0.18 U/mL. This simple, flexible, dual-mode sensor strategy has a potential for disease diagnosis and drug screening.

Abstract
Glycosidases are ubiquitous enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosidic linkages in oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates. These enzymes play a vital role in a wide variety of biological events, such as digestion of nutritional carbohydrates, lysosomal catabolism of glycoconjugates, and posttranslational modifications of glycoproteins. Abnormal glycosidase activities are associated with a variety of diseases, particularly cancer and lysosomal storage disorders. Owing to the physiological and pathological significance of glycosidases, the development of small molecules that target these enzymes is an active area in glycoscience and medicinal chemistry. Research efforts carried out thus far have led to the discovery of numerous glycosidase-targeting small molecules that have been utilized to elucidate biological processes as well as to develop effective chemotherapeutic agents. In this review, we describe the results of research studies reported since 2018, giving particular emphasis to the use of fluorescent probes for detection and imaging of glycosidases, activity-based probes for covalent labelling of these enzymes, glycosidase inhibitors, and glycosidase-activatable prodrugs.

Abstract
Development of "ultrahigh contrast" fluorogenic probes for trapping alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities in human serum is highly desirable for clinical auxiliary diagnosis for hepatobiliary diseases. However, the intrinsic dilemma of incomplete ionization of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT)-based ALP fluorophores and autofluorescence interference of serum result in low sensitivity and accuracy. Given that unique halogen effects could lead to a drastic decrease in the pKa value and a significant enhancement in the fluorescence quantum yield, herein we report an enzyme-activatable near-infrared probe based on a difluoro-substituted dicyanomethylene-4H-chromenep for achieving fluorescent quantification of human serum ALP. Rational design strategy is demonstrated by altering the substituted halogen groups to well regulate the pKa for meeting the physiological precondition. Owing to the complete ionization at pH 7.4 with tremendous fluorescence enhancement, the difluoro-substituted DCM-2F-HP manifests a linear relationship between the emission intensity and ALP concentration in both solution and serum samples. Along with measuring 77 human serum samples, the DCM-2F-HP based fluorescence method not only exhibits significant correlations with clinical colorimetry, but also distinguishes ALP patients from healthy volunteers, as well as assessing the progress of liver disease, thus providing a potential toolbox for quantitatively detecting ALP and warning the stage of hepatopathy.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and antenna effect (AE) are two significant behaviors that have attracted increasing attention. However, it is challenging to achieve the synergistic effect of AIE and AE in luminescent materials for more extensive applications. Here, four gelatinous Ln3+ coordination polymers (Ln-CPs) are synthesized by self-assembly of ciprofloxacin (CIP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), and Ln3+ ions in aqueous medium. Encouragingly, a remarkable increase in the characteristic fluorescence of Ln3+ and a significant decrease in CIP are observed along with increasing concentration of Ln-CPs, which is attributed to the large aggregates formed by self-assembly that strictly constrain the intramolecular motions of antenna ligands, thereby achieving the aggregation-enhanced AE. More meaningfully, Eu-CP not only shows a rice-like morphology at high aggregation state, but also provides an opportunity for the selective detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). A new flower-like polymer is formed upon incubating Eu-CP with ALP, accompanied by the fluorescence quenching of Eu3+ and recovery of CIP, a ratiometric determination of ALP in the range of 0.1-6.0 U·L-1 is thus achieved. Additionally, ALP assay in human serum and bioimaging in living cells have been successfully performed. This research opens a new horizon for the fabrication of Ln3+-based luminescent materials with promising applications.

Abstract
Anions and cations have a key role in our normal life. Cu2+ ion is a crucial trace element accountable for the part of several cellular enzymes and proteins, including cytochrome c oxidase, dopamine monooxygenase, Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase, and ceruloplasmin. WHO has found the extreme acceptable level of Cu2+ ions in drinking water is up to 2.0 ppm. Excess use of Cu2+ ions is associated with various human genetic disorders. Thus, the visualization of Cu2+ ions to avoid its toxic effects in chemical and biological systems is significant. In this review we have summarized sensors based on catalytic hydrolysis of picolinate to detect Cu2+ ions. The sensors based on hydrolysis of picolinate are very selective as compared to the other sensors for Cu2+ ions detection. We have focused on describing the structure, spectral properties, detection limits, and bioimaging model of the sensors.

Abstract
Functional regulation of cell signaling through dynamic changes in protein activity state as well as spatial organization represent two dynamic, complex, and conserved phenomena in biology. Seemingly separate areas of -omics method development have focused on building tools that can detect and quantify protein activity states, as well as map sub-cellular and intercellular protein organization. Integration of these efforts, through the development of chemical tools and platforms that enable detection and quantification of protein functional states with spatial resolution provide opportunities to better understand heterogeneity in the proteome within cell organelles, multi-cellular tissues, and whole organisms. This review provides an overview of and considerations for major classes of chemical proteomic probes and technologies that enable protein activity mapping from sub-cellular compartments to live animals.

Abstract
Biomarkers are essential in biology, physiology, and pharmacology; thus, their detection is of extensive importance. Fluorescent probes provide effective tools for detecting biomarkers exactly. Excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), one of the significant photophysical processes that possesses specific photoisomerization between Keto and Enol forms, can effectively avoid annoying interference from the background with a large Stokes shift. Hence, ESIPT is an excellent choice for biomarker monitoring. Based on the ESIPT process, abundant probes were designed and synthesized using three major design methods. In this review, we conclude probes for 14 kinds of biomarkers based on ESIPT explored in the past five years, summarize these general design methods, and highlight their application for biomarker detection in vitro or in vivo.

Abstract
γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT), an important tumor marker, is highly expressed in tumor tissues, and precise detection of its activity provides a vital indicator for the diagnosis and treatment. In this work, a "lighting-on" probe (TCF-GGT) was elaborated to detect endogenous GGT with high selectivity and sensitivity. Dicyanomethyldifuranyl (TCF-OH) was employed as the fluorescence reporter and short peptide glutathione (GSH) worked as the GGT-active trigger, the introduction of which prevented the initial proton transfer of TCF-OH contributing to a blank sensing background. A bright red fluorescence could be switched on upon GGT catalytic hydrolysis, avoiding the potential interference from background. There displayed an excellent water-solubility, and little organic solvent was required during the exploration, which otherwise avoided the potential damage to enzyme and organism. TCF-GGT has been proved to be workable at cellular and organism level with highly effective imaging and a short metabolic cycle, which is expected to offer an alternative solution or reference to the early diagnosis and treatment of tumor.

Chen X, Yuwen Z, Zhao Y, Li H, Chen K, Liu H. In situ detection of alkaline phosphatase in a cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury model with a fluorescent/photoacoustic bimodal molecular probe. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 10:1068533. [PMID: 36507263 PMCID: PMC9727191 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.1068533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 11/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Kidneys play an important part in drug metabolism and excretion. High local concentration of drugs or drug allergies often cause acute kidney injury (AKI). Identification of effective biomarkers of initial stage AKI and constructing activable molecular probes with excellent detection properties for early evaluation of AKI are necessary, yet remain significant challenges. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), a key hydrolyzing protease, exists in the epithelial cells of the kidney and is discharged into the urine following kidney injury. However, no studies have revealed its level in drug-induced AKI. Existing ALP fluorescent molecular probes are not suitable for testing and imaging of ALP in the AKI model. Drug-induced AKI is accompanied by oxidative stress, and many studies have indicated that a large increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) occur in the AKI model. Thus, the probe used for imaging of AKI must be chemically stable in the presence of ROS. However, most existing near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF) ALP probes are not stable in the presence of ROS in the AKI model. Hence, we built a chemically stable molecular sensor (CS-ALP) to map ALP level in cisplatin-induced AKI. This novel probe is not destroyed by ROS generated in the AKI model, thus allowing high-fidelity imaging. In the presence of ALP, the CS-ALP probe generates a new absorbance peak at 685 nm and a fluorescent emission peak at 716 nm that could be used to "turn on" photoacoustic (PA) and NIRF imaging of ALP in AKI. Levels of CS-ALP build up rapidly in the kidney, and CS-ALP has been successfully applied in NIRF/PA bimodal in vivo imaging. Through the NIRF/PA bimodal imaging results, we demonstrate that upregulated expression of ALP occurs in the early stages of AKI and continues with injury progression.

Abstract
Amines levels present important indicative value in food safety and human health. Although they are involved in some normal physiological responses of the organism, their overproduction or intake may cause pathological responses. Herein, we report a recyclable visual packaging bag for volatile amines detections based on the naphthylamide derivative N-S and its positive PL characteristics. Specifically, handmade test strips based on compound N-S have been applied to fish freshness labeling, and the cyclic fumigation experiment shows its restorable PL effect and efficiency. The possible PL transfer mechanism of naphthylamide derivative N-S is uncovered by the density functional theory (DFT) calculation and titration mass spectrometer and 1H NMR. This work expands a conjugation in a molecule by hydrogen-bond activated ESIPT (H-ESIPT) and provides a portable detection method for volatile amines detection.

Abstract
Detecting and imaging intracellular hypochlorous acid (HClO) is of great importance owning to its prominent role in numerous pathological and physiological processes. In this contribution, a novel AIE-based fluorescent chemosensor has been developed by employing a benzothiazole derivative. The synthesized probe displayed remarkable ratiometric fluorescent response to HClO with a large emission shift (139 nm), resulting in naked-eye fluorescence changes from red to blue. Under the optimal conditions, this probe was capable of quantitatively detecting HClO within 10 s, and possessed good sensitivity and high selectivity toward HClO over other biologically relevant species. Moreover, it has been successfully utilized to image the exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells through dual channels, and conveniently detect hypochlorous acid solution on test strips with better accuracy, demonstrating its potential for monitoring HClO in biological and environment fields.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is one of the vital phospho-ester bond cleaving biocatalysts that has inevitable significance in cellular systems, viz., early-stage osteoblast differentiation, cell integrity in tissues, bone mineralization, cancer biomarker, liver dysfunction, cellular osmotic pressure, protein folding and many more. Variation from optimal levels of ALP in intra and extracellular fluids can cause severe diseases, including death. Due to these reasons, ALP is considered as a vital biomarker for various preclinical and medical diagnosis. Fluorescence image-based diagnosis is the most widely used method, owing to its simplicity, robustness, non-invasive properties and excellent spatio-temporal resolution (up to the nM/pM level), as compared to conventional analytical techniques, such as the electroanalytical method, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Most of the reviews reported for ALP’s recognition in the literature scarcely explain the structurally related, photophysical and biophysical parameters; and the sub-cellular localizations. Considering these facts, in order to enhance the opto-analytical parameters of fluorescence-based diagnostic materials at the cellular level, herein we have systematically documented recent developments in the opto-analytical capabilities of quencher-free probes for ALP, used in in vitro (biological buffers) to in cellulo conditions, along with in vivo models.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), a vital hydrolase widely distributed in organisms, is regarded as a critical biomarker strongly associated with many physiological and pathological processes. Therefore, fast and efficient detection of ALP activity in vivo is of great value for clinical diagnosis. Herein, a novel near-infrared (NIR) ratiometric fluorescent probe (HP) was designed based on ESIPT for trapping ALP activity in cells and in vivo. Notably, incorporating a self-immolative spacer dramatically reduces the response time (8.5 min) of HP. Moreover, the probe exhibits excellent water solubility, large Stokes shift (147 nm), the ratiometric determination of ALP at 570 nm and 689 nm, low detection limit (3.98 U L-1). More importantly, the probe was also successfully applied to detect and monitor variations in endogenous ALP activity in zebrafish due to the drug (APAP) induced organ damages.

Abstract
In situ quantitative analysis of enzymes such as phosphatase is important to understand a number of involved biological processes ranging from various metabolisms to signal transduction and cellular regulation. In this paper, a novel in situ measurement strategy was proposed to detect alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in different locations within single living cells. The principle is based on the measurement of the resonance light scattering brightness ratio (SBR) per moving nanoparticle that forms in an ALP-related chemical reaction. In the method, a novel resonance light scattering correlation spectroscopy (RLSCS) system was developed using two lasers for illumination or two detection channels. Using the gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as probes, the Au@Ag nanoparticles (Au@Ag NPs) formed due to the ALP-catalyzed hydrolysis of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AAP) and the subsequent reduction-deposition reaction of Ag ions that occurred on the AuNPs. The SBR value per moving particle was determined based on the obtained RLS intensity traces and RLSCS curves. The SBR value was found to be not influenced by the intracellular viscosity and size that was confirmed in the experiments. The linear relation between the SBR and ALP activity was established and applied to detect ALP activity and evaluate the inhibition of different drugs. Finally, the method was successfully used to in situ measure ALP activity within living cells. The method overcomes the shortcoming of conventional methods that lack quantitative analysis and are susceptible to intracellular viscosity.

Abstract
HClO/ClO-, as one of important reactive oxygen species, is a highly reactive unavoidable by-product generated from normal cell metabolism. In recent years, efficient method for detectiing HClO/ClO- is of great important to research its pathological or physiological function in bio-systems. In this work, we have constructed a fluorescent probe (P-Hc) with ratiometric signal for sensing HClO/ClO- in aqueous solution, physiological saline and different serums based on 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)phenol dye. The structure of P-Hc was characterized by NMR and HRMS spectrum. The sensing mechanism has also been verified by 1H NMR spectrum. The P-Hc displays good sensitivity and selectivity for HClO/ClO- with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.03 × 10-6 M. Furthermore, P-Hc has been applied for sensing HClO/ClO- in physiological saline and different serums. Thus, P-Hc may provide a novel method for ratiometric fluorescent sensing HClO/ClO- in bio-samples.

Abstract
Developing new reaction based recognizing units can enhance the specificity of target analyte molecules in practical applications of real samples and biosystems. Therefore, introducing a recognizing moiety diphenylborinate was encountered for the detection of pyruvate biomolecule through Lewis acid-base reaction based sensing strategy. The construction of the Schiff-base back bone between quinoline and N-(diethylamino)salicylaldehyde-diphenylborinate (QSB) were expressed the red shift from blue emission of quinoline in to green as that of dative bond developed between Schiff base nitrogen and boron atoms. The new sensing approach was involved such a way that fluorophore QSB is a Lewis acid while pyruvate acts as Lewis base, where the elimination of Lewis pair produced a weak green fluorescence including the formation of quinoline, N-(diethylamino)salicylaldehyde (QS). The switching products were witnessed through 1H NMR titration, HR-MS and FT-IR studies. The good selectivity and interference ability were achieved in presence of 1000-fold excess of possible interferences with LOD of 16 nM. Moreover, the tracking ability of the probe was employed towards pyruvate in live HeLa cell imaging for evaluating an exogenous and endogenous signals producing ability and its mitochondria targeting property was investigated successfully. Further, the practical utility of the probe was tested with milk samples and obtained good recovery results.

Abstract
In recent years, fluorescent probes based on chemical reactions have been widely investigated as a powerful and noninvasive method for the diagnosis of diseases. β-Galactosidase (β-gal), a typical lysosomal glycosidase, over expressed in senescent cells and primary ovarian cancer cells, which has been considered as an important biomarker cell senescence and primary ovarian cancers. Fluorescent probes for the determination of β-gal provide an excellent choice for visualization of cell senescence. In this work, a turn on fluorescent probe (HBT-gal) for β-gal activity was developed based on the enzymatic hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds. HBT-gal showed little fluorescence in aqueous buffer excited at 415 nm, while emitted green fluorescence centered at ∼ 492 nm upon incubated with β-gal. The sensing scheme showed high selectivity and sensitivity for β-gal activity with a limit of detection calculated as low as 0.19 mU/mL. Moreover, HBT-gal was successfully applied to image β-gal activity in senescent Hep G2 cells treated with H2O2. Therefore, probe HBT-gal demonstrated a potential usage for the determination of cell senescence using β-gal as a biomarker.

Abstract
Mitochondrial sulfur dioxide (SO2) and formaldehyde (FA) in cancer cells serve as important signal molecules in mediating multiple physiological and pathological activities. Accurate monitoring of the dynamic fluctuation of SO2 and FA in the mitochondria of cancer cells is important for insight into their relationships and functions in cancer, understanding cancer mechanism, and the role of mitochondrial homeostasis in cancer invasion and metastasis. Herein, a novel integrated two-photon semiconducting polymer dot (BF@Pdots) with dual-targeting (cancer cells and mitochondrial) and dual-emission in green and red regions, which is rationally designed through a four-step engineering strategy by using two newly synthesized functionalized polymers PFNA and FD-PSMA as precursors, has been developed for accurate tracking of the dynamic variation of SO2 and FA in the mitochondria of cancer cells. The sensing mechanism is on the basis of the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process in BF@Pdots tuned by the reversible Michael addition reaction between the sensing-groups and SO2 (or FA). The integrated BF@Pdots nanoprobes display excellent performances in the accurate detection of the dynamic fluctuation of SO2 and FA such as precise positioning in the mitochondria of cancer cells, self-calibrating ratiometric, two-photon emission with long wavelength excitation, and fast reversible response. The BF@Pdots nanoprobes are also applied to the ratiometric detection of the dynamic fluctuation of exogenous and endogenous SO2 and FA in the mitochondria of cancer cells for the first time with satisfactory results. Taken together, this work will provide an attractive way to develop versatile integrated Pdots-based fluorescent probes through flexible molecular engineering for applications in accurate imaging of biomolecules in living systems.

Abstract
The ever-increasing attention on the highly sensitive biosensors pushes people to explore functional nanomaterials for signal amplification. To endow inert metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with enzyme mimicking activity, a simple strategy of introducing Cu2+ via coordination with 2,2'-bipyridine ligands of Zr-MOF, just like "Midas touch," is proposed. More details on the coordination environment of Cu active sites in Zr-MOF-Cu are disclosed via electron paramagnetic resonance and synchrotron-radiation-based X-ray absorption fine structure analyses. The as-prepared Zr-MOF-Cu exhibits unparalleled catalytic ability, which can catalyze ascorbic acid (AA) to dehydroascorbic acid and further stimulate the reaction with o-phenylenediamine to produce fluorescent signal probes with 8-fold signal amplification. On the basis of catalyzing the dephosphorylation process of l-ascorbic acid-2-phosphate to yield AA via alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and AA-dependent signal responses, a universal fluorescent system has been successfully constructed for quantitative measurement of the activity of ALP and the ALP-related enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with carcinoembryonic antigen as a model. Moreover, the stable loading of Cu active sites endows the sensing platform with anti-inference capacity and enables its reuse without loss of catalytic activity after 6 months.

Abstract
Esterase activity is often used as an index to evaluate the health status of cells and plays an important role in cell metabolism and apoptosis. Herein, we develop two fluorescent probes for visual biosensing of esterase activity and imaging in living cells. In vitro, after the introduction of esterase, enzymolysis destroys the ester bond of the probe, causing the fluorescent color of probe changes from yellow to red, thus realizing the visual strategy for determination of esterase activity, with high sensitivity and selectivity. Especially, probe VA, 2-(4-acetoxystyryl)-3-ethyl-1,1-dimethyl- 1H-benzo[e]indol-3-ium, exhibits higher sensitivity with a lower detection limit (up to 7.15 × 10-6 U/mL). In the cell experiment, the fluorescent probe VA also shows good biocompatibility and high spatial resolution, and is successfully applied to the intracellular fluorescent imaging and biosensing of esterase in living cells. More importantly, the probe VA can judge the unhealthy state of H2O2-induced HeLa cells using dual-fluorescence signals. The results confirm that the fluorescence method is a reliable tool for detecting endogenous esterase in living biological system.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) acts as the main energy source for growth and development in organisms, and the disorder reflects the mitochondrial damage to a large extent. Therefore, an efficient tool for the evaluation of the ATP metabolic level is important to track mitochondrial health, providing an additional perspective for an in-depth long-term study on living activities. Herein, a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) framework is utilized to build up a sensitive receptor, Mito-VP, with a negligible background to target mitochondrial ATP metabolism by monitoring the phosphate ion (Pi) level upon ATP hydrolysis under the overall consideration of the structural and functional features of mitochondria. The responsive fluorescence could be lighted on under the dual control of Pi and local microviscosity, and the two steps of ATP hydrolysis could be captured through fluorescence. In addition to the well-behaved mitochondrial targeting, the energy metabolism at cellular and organism levels has been clarified via mitosis and zebrafish development, respectively.

Abstract
Lysosome-relevant cell death induced by lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) has recently attracted increasing attention. However, nearly no studies show that currently available LMP inducers can evoke immunogenic cell death (ICD) or convert immunologically cold tumors to hot. Herein, we report a LMP inducer named TPE-Py-pYK(TPP)pY, which can respond to alkaline phosphatase (ALP), leading to formation of nanoassembies along with fluorescence and singlet oxygen turn-on. TPE-Py-pYK(TPP)pY tends to accumulate in ALP-overexpressed cancer cell lysosomes as well as induce LMP and rupture of lysosomal membranes to massively evoke ICD. Such LMP-induced ICD effectively converts immunologically cold tumors to hot as evidenced by abundant CD8+ and CD4+ T cells infiltration into the cold tumors. Exposure of ALP-catalyzed nanoassemblies in cancer cell lysosomes to light further intensifies the processes of LMP, ICD and cold-to-hot tumor conversion. This work thus builds a new bridge between lysosome-relevant cell death and cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Terbium doped graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4:Tb) gives rise to two exceptional emissions at λex/λem = 290/490 nm and 290/546 nm, with extremely narrow peak widths of FWHM < 12 nm as well as a large Stokes shift of >200 nm. The modification of g-C3N4:Tb with HOOC-PEG-COOH provides a ratiometric fluorescent probe which ensures highly sensitive detection of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity based on the inner filter effect (IFE).

Abstract
Four 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole-based Schiff base derivatives incorporating different substituents were synthesized. Their optical properties were characterized by UV-visible and fluorescence spectra. The electron-withdrawing and electron-donating actions of substituents can change the orbital energy level distributions of molecules resulting in the difference of their luminescence properties. And the fluorescence microscopic images showed that these derivatives had different aggregation behaviors to form aggregates of different shapes. Furthermore, compound HBT-4 has been proved to have excellent recognition performance for N2H4 in real aqueous solution. Finally, HBT-4 could be prepared into a simple test paper as an efficient tool for the rapid detection of N2H4.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become a global threat to the elderly health with a short survival time after diagnosis. Due to the asymptomatic stage during the early development, patients are usually diagnosed at the middle or late stage. Therefore, an efficient tool for AD early diagnosis deserves considerable attention, which could make a significant contribution to the treatment intervention. A fluorescent probe has been widely applied for detecting and visualizing species of interest in vitro and in vivo, and the proper reaction between the probe and analytes is responsible for the fluorescence change to provide a lighting-on or ratiometric responsive pattern with satisfactory sensing behavior. In this work, we report the first attempt to build up an AND-logic probe P2 for AD accuracy diagnosis taking butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and reactive oxygen species (ROSs) as dual targets. Upon the co-stimulation by these two factors through enzymatic hydrolysis and redox reaction, the NIR emission could be readily turned on. This AND sensing pattern avoided the false-positive response effectively, and other diseases sharing one biomarker could hardly induce a NIR fluorescence response. The sensing assay has also been confirmed to be feasible in vitro and in vivo with good sensibility and selectivity. It is worth mentioning that the probe structure has been optimized in terms of the linkage length. This study shows that probe P2 with a connecting arm of medium length (one methylene, n = 1) has superior sensing performance, promising to provide a reference for the relative structure design.

Abstract
At the organelle level, pathogenesis due to abnormal concentrations of cysteine (Cys) is of great significance for the early diagnosis and treatment of related diseases. Generally speaking, organelle localization requires the participation of specific target groups, which increases the difficulty of synthesis. Herein, through simple synthesis, a novel biflavone derivative (BFD) that exhibits excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) was obtained and successfully located in mitochondria without target groups. The probe BFD can distinguish Cys from Hcy and GSH with a rapid response (< 5 s) and showed visual detection for Cys with a large Stokes shift (about 260 nm). Because of its nanomorphology in solution and surface functional groups, the probe BFD can enter the cell smoothly and achieve mitochondrial localization. Owing to its excellent optical performance, the probe BFD was successfully applied to the imaging of endogenous Cys in HeLa cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an important hydrolase with crucial roles in biological processes, and the dysregulation of ALP may cause various human diseases. The conventional ALP assays usually involve cumbersome procedures with poor sensitivity. Herein, taking advantage of intrinsic superiorities of molecular beacons (MBs) and unique features of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), we demonstrate for the first time the 3'-terminal repair-powered dendritic nanoassembly of polyadenine (A) MBs for one-step quantification of ALP in human serum. When ALP is present, it catalyzes 3'-terminal dephosphorylation of poly-A MBs to induce TdT-mediated template-free polymerization, generating long chains of polythymidine (T) sequences. The long poly-T chains can function as the anchoring templates to hybridize with many poly-A MBs, leading to the unfolding of loop structures and the dissociation of FAM/BHQ1 pairs (the 1st amplification stage). Subsequently, all 3'-hydroxylated poly-A MBs can be extended with the assistance of TdT to generate the branched long poly-T chains, leading to the hybridization of more poly-A MBs and the dissociation of more FAM/BHQ1 pairs (the 2nd amplification stage). Through multiple rounds of extension, assembly, and activation of poly-A MBs, dendritic DNA nanostructures are automatically formed, resulting in the dissociation of abundant fluorophores from the FAM/BHQ1 pairs to generate an exponentially amplified fluorescence signal (the nth amplification stage). This strategy possesses high sensitivity and excellent specificity, and the detection limit can reach 1 cell. Moreover, it can evaluate kinetic parameters, screen inhibitors, estimate cellular inhibition effects, and measure ALP in human serums.

A novel aggregation-induced dual emission probe for in situ light-up detection of endogenous alkaline phosphatase. Talanta 2021; 225:121950.

Abstract
Abnormal level of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity has been linked to many diseases in human. The development of fluorescent molecular probes that can report the expression and activity of ALP in various biological systems will be extremely valuable. However, the in vivo monitoring for ALP in living cells and more complex biological systems remains a great challenge. The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) probe with proportional fluorescence has low background noise, while the aggregation induced emission (AIE) probe has the advantages of signal amplification and good light stability. Herein, an "AIE + ESIPT" fluorescent probe 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-4-(1,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazole-2-yl)phenyl dihydrogen phosphate (THP) was constructed for the highly selective and sensitive detection of ALP. By introducing a phosphate ester at the hydroxyl position of the solid fluorophore 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-4-(1,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazole-2-yl)phenol, ESIPT was hindered and the probe present a faint blue fluorescence in DMSO solution. While ALP was introduced, causing the phosphate in THP hydrolyzed, and the ESIPT process was restored to yield a yellow fluorescence at 550 nm, thereby achieving proportionality detection. THP exhibited high selectivity and sensitively to ALP with low limit of detection (1.21228 U/L), and the reaction completed within 20 min. In addition, with its outstanding advantages of low biological toxicity and enzyme conversion characteristics, THP has been successfully applied to ALP imaging in living cells (Hela cells, A549 cells and Hek293 cells), and can provide in situ information on the reaction site. Therefore, THP has the potential for detecting ALP activity in biomedical application.

Abstract
Monoaromatic molecules are a category of molecules containing a single aromatic ring which generally emit light in the ultraviolet (UV) region. Despite their facile preparation, the UV emission greatly limits their application as organic probes. In this study, we developed a general method to red shift the emission of monoaromatic molecules. Significant fluorescence red-shift (∼100 nm per intramolecular hydrogen bonding) can be achieved by introducing intramolecular hydrogen bonding units to benzene, a typical monoaromatic molecule. Upon increasing the number of hydrogen bonding units on the benzene ring, UV, blue, and green emissions are screened, which are switchable by simply breaking/restoration the intramolecular hydrogen bonding. As a demonstration, with the breaking of one intramolecular H-bonding, the green emission (λemmax = 533 nm) of 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid (DHTA) changed to cyan (λemmax = 463 nm) upon the formation of its phosphorylated form (denoted as PDHTA), which, in the presence of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), hydrolyzed and recovered the green emission. By taking advantage of the switchable emission colors, ratiometric in vitro and endogenous ALP sensing was achieved. This general approach offers a great promise to develop organic probes with tunable emissions for fluorescence analysis and imaging by different intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
Small-molecule based fluorescent probes are increasingly important for the detection and imaging of biological signaling molecules due to their simplicity, high selectivity and sensitivity, whilst being non-invasive, and suitable for real-time analysis of living systems. With this perspective we highlight sensing mechanisms including Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), photoinduced electron transfer (PeT), excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), aggregation induced emission (AIE) and multiple modality fluorescence approaches including dual/triple sensing mechanisms (DSM or TSM). Throughout the perspective we highlight the remaining challenges and suggest potential directions for development towards improved small-molecule fluorescent probes suitable for biosensing.

Abstract
A series of multifunctional ratiometric near-infrared fluorescent probes (CYOH-3, CYOH-4, CYOH-5, and CYOH-6) for esterase detection are designed by gradually changing the deflection of the plane twist in the molecule. These probes are composed of different ring-structure trigger groups (from three-membered ring to six-membered ring) and the same luminescent group CYOH. These probes show maximum absorption at ∼585 nm and a fluorescence emission peak at ∼655 ± 5 nm. In the presence of esterase, the probes were hydrolyzed to expose the fluorophore CYOH (λabs = 690 nm, λem = 710 ± 5 nm), thus exhibiting ratiometric near-infrared fluorescence. The probe CYOH-6 has lower plane deflection angle and better ratiometric (R = I710±5nm/I657±4nm) fluorescence properties than probes CYOH-3, CYOH-4, and CYOH-5. CYOH-6 (six-membered ring) has been successfully used to target esterase in mitochondria and distinguish between dead cells (esterase inactivation) and live cells. In addition, CYOH-6 has been well used for monitoring of esterase activity in zebrafish and mice, which proves that these probes have good prospects for clinical biomedical applications.
