Abstract
BACKGROUND Highly reactive oxygen species (ROS) could lead to serious damage in living cells and are associated with many diseases like cancers. Metal cluster with strong fluorescence has great potential in biosensing and many thiolate ligands-protected clusters have been applied in ROS sensing. RESULTS In this work, we synthesized levonorgestrel protected Au10 cluster with specific sensing ability for highly ROS via crystal transformation from Au8 cluster, demonstrating the significance of inner core structure on detecting performance. The detection limit of Au10 cluster for ClO- could reach as low as 0.1 μM. This fluorescent probe not only achieving detection of exogenous ClO- in living cells and zebrafish, but also successful imaging of endogenous ClO- in HeLa and HepG2 cells. SIGNIFICANCE In comparison to previously reported cluster-based sensors for ROS, this work proposes a different reaction mechanism of metal nanoclusters for ROS detection (breakage of gold-alkynyl bond and oxidation of alkynyl group). This provides new directions for designing specific ROS probes and broadens the applications of metal clusters in disease diagnostics.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive sulfur species (RSS), metal ions, and nitrogen species (RNS) play important roles in a variety of biological processes, such as a signal transduction, inflammation, and neurodegenerative damage. These species, while essential for certain functions, can also induce stress-related diseases. The interrelation between ROS, RSS, Metal ions and RNS underscores the importance of quantifying their concentrations in live cells, tissues, and organisms. The review emphasizes the use of small-molecule-based fluorescent/chemodosimeter probes to effectively measure and map the species' distribution with high temporal and spatial precision, paying particular attention to in vitro and in vivo environments. These probes are recognized as valuable tools contributing to breakthroughs in modern redox biology. The review specifically addresses the relationship of HOCl/ClO‾ (hypochlorous acid/Hypochlorite) with other reactive species. (Dual sensing probes).

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

Abstract
In this study, we present a thoughtful integration of a dispersive solid-phase sorbent and oxine for the ultrasensitive and highly selective determination of Al3+ ions. Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles (CoFe2O4 NPs) modified with oxine were employed to facilitate the pre-concentration and estimation of Al3+, forming highly fluorescent chelate. The modification process included the assistance of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sonication. The results indicated that the fluorescence intensity of Al3+-oxine/SDS@CoFe2O4 NPs surpassed that of Al3+-oxine alone. The confirmation of the successful functionalization of CoFe2O4 NPs with oxine was established through various techniques. Under optimal conditions, the fluorescence intensity exhibited a positive correlation with increasing concentrations of Al3+ within the range of 0.029-600 ng mL-1, achieving a detection limit of 0.0087 ng mL-1 based on signal to noise ratio 3 : 1. The developed method was effectively applied to the determination of Al3+ in drinking water samples, yielding recoveries in the range of 97.19% to 103.13%, with a relative standard deviation (RSD%) not exceeding 3.78%.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-), as a short-term reactive biological oxidant, could lead to a series of effects in various physiological and pathological processes due to its subtle concentration changes. In vivo monitoring of ONOO- and relevant physiological processes is urgently required. Herein, we describe a novel fluorescent probe termed HBT-Fl-BnB for the ratiometric detection of ONOO- in vitro and in vivo. The probe consists of an HBT core with Fl groups at the ortho and para positions responding to the zwitterionic excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer (zwitterionic ESIPT) process and a boronic acid pinacol ester with dual roles that block the zwitterionic ESIPT and recognize ONOO-. Thanks to the specificity as well as low cytotoxicity, success in imaging of endogenous and exogenous ONOO- in living cells by HBT-Fl-BnB was obtained. Additionally, the applicability of HBT-Fl-BnB to tracking the abnormal expression of ONOO- in vivo induced by inactivated Escherichia coli was also explored. This is the first report of a fluorescent probe for ONOO- sensing via a zwitterionic ESIPT mechanism.

Abstract
In this work, a fluorescent probe, TPABF-HS, was developed for detecting hydrogen sulfide (H2S) using a human serum albumin (HSA)-binding-based approach for amplifying the fluorescence signal and extending the linear correlation range. Compared to the most recent probes for H2S, the most interesting feature of the detection system developed herein was the especially wide linear range (0-1000 μM (0-100 eq.)), which covered the physiological and pathological levels of H2S. TPABF-HS could be used in applications high sensitivity and selectivity with an LOD value of 0.42 μM. Further, site-competition experiments and molecular docking simulation experiments indicated that signal amplification was realized by the binding of the TPABF fluorophore to the naproxen-binding site of HSA. Moreover, the extension of the measurement span could allow for applications in living cells and Caenorhabditis elegans for imaging both exogenous and endogenous H2S. This work brings new information to the strategy of signal processing by exploiting fluorescent probes.

Abstract
Biothiols including cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and glutathione (GSH) are crucial in maintaining the redox balance in the body, and the metabolism and transportation of biothiols rely on the coreaction of diverse proteins and enzymes. The abnormal concentrations and metabolism of biothiols are closely associated with many diseases. However, due to the same active reaction site of the sulfydryl group in biothiols, it is inevitable to bear a confused signal of mutual influence on both nonselective detection and discriminate detection, which presents a serious challenge of accurately sensing or imaging the three biothiols. By assigning an α,β-unsaturated ketone moiety as a Michael acceptor to trigger thiols to complete the irreversible equivalent domino response processes of nucleophilic addition, olefinic bond migration, and self-immolation, a targeted strategy was rationally pointed out, and herein, a hemicyanine-based probe CyOCy was prepared as a proof of strategy demonstration. The new probe could be equivalently lit up by Cys, Hcy, GSH, and even biothiol combinations (Cys/Hcy, Cys/GSH, Hcy/GSH, or Cys/Hcy/GSH) with unified linear ranges, detection limits, and response times. The probe CyOCy has been successfully used for the accurate quantification of total biothiols in the serum samples of healthy persons and coronary heart disease patients. In addition, the probe has been applied for cell screening, exogenous biothiol imaging, and monitoring drug-induced biothiol fluctuations. The purposive thinking of this work may provide an effective avenue for the accurate sensing of multicomponent samples.

Abstract
Three gaseous molecules are widely accepted as important gasotransmitters in mammalian cells, namely NO, CO and H2S. Due to the pharmacological effects observed in preclinical studies, these three gasotransmitters represent promising drug candidates for clinical translation. Fluorescent probes of the gasotransmitters are also in high demand; however, the mechanisms of actions or the roles played by gasotransmitters under both physiological and pathological conditions remain to be answered. In order to bring these challenges to the attention of both chemists and biologists working in this field, we herein summarize the chemical strategies used for the design of both probes and prodrugs of these three gasotransmitters.

Abstract
Rapid and visual evaluation the internal corruption of meat tissue is closely related to public health. The pH change caused by glycolysis and amino acid decomposition is an important indicator of meat freshness. Herein, we designed a pH-responsive NIR fluorescent probe (Probe-OH) based on protonation/deprotonation for monitoring the internal corruption of meat tissue. Probe-OH was synthesized by a stable hemicyanine skeleton with phenolic hydroxyl group, which exhibited excellent performances such as high selectivity, high sensitivity, fast response time (60 s), a broad pH-responsive range of 4.0-10.0, and superior spatio-temporal sampling ability. In addition, we conducted a paper chip platform to measure pH value in different meat samples (pork and chicken), which is convenient to evaluate pH value of meat by observing the color changes of paper strips. Furthermore, in combination with the NIR advantages of fluorescence imaging, Probe-OH was successfully applied to assess the freshness of pork and chicken breasts, and the structural changes of muscle tissue can be clearly observed under confocal microscope. The results of Z-axis scanning showed that Probe-OH could penetrate into the interior to monitor the internal corruption of meat tissue, the fluorescence intensity changes with scanning height in the meat tissue section, and reaches its maximum at 50 μm. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of fluorescence probe being used to image the inside of meat tissue section so far. It is expected that we can provide a new rapid, sensitive, near-infrared fluorescence method for assessment of the freshness in the internal organization of meat.

Abstract
A number of Activity-Based Sensors (ABS) for relatively unreactive small molecules, such as ethylene, necessitates a transition metal for reaction under ambient conditions. Olefin metathesis has emerged as one of the primary strategies to achieve ethylene detection, and other transition metals are used for similarly challenging-to-detect analytes. However, limited studies exist investigating how fluorophore-metal attachment impacts photophysical properties of such ABS. Two new probes were prepared with the chelating benzlidene Ru-ligand directly conjugated to a BODIPY fluorophore and the photophysical properties of the new conjugated ABS were evaluated.

Abstract
Reactive sulfur species (RSS) are emerging as a potential key gasotransmitter in diverse physiological processes linking two signaling molecules H2S and SO2. However, the exact roles of H2S and SO2 remain unclear. A major hurdle is the shortage of accurate and robust approaches for sensing of H2S and SO2 in biological systems. Herein, we report a reaction-mediated dual-recognition strategy-based nanosensor, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)-loaded MIL-101 (Fe) (ALM) hybrids, for the simultaneous detection of H2S and SO2 in a living cell. Upon exposure to H2S, AgNPs can be oxidized to form Ag2S, causing a decrease of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) signals of p,p'-dimercaptoazobenzene. Moreover, SO2 reacts with the amino moiety of MIL-101 to form charge-transfer complexes, resulting in an increment of fluorescent (FL) intensity. The ALM with dual-modal signals can simultaneously analyze H2S and SO2 at a concentration as low as 2.8 × 10-6 and 0.003 μM, respectively. Most importantly, the ALM sensing platform enables targeting mitochondria and detection multiple RSS simultaneously in living cells under external stimulation, as well as displays indiscernible crosstalk between SERS and FL signals, which is very beneficial for the comprehension of physiological issues related with RSS.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-), a kind of active nitrogen species, plays an important role in biological systems. Overproduction of ONOO- is closely related to the pathogenesis of many diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify intracellular ONOO- for differentiating health and disease states. Fluorescent probes with near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence can detect ONOO- with high sensitivity and selectivity. However, there is an inevitable problem that many NIR fluorophores are easily oxidized by ONOO- to give a false-negative result. To avoid this problem, herein, we ingeniously propose a "destruction to seek to survive" strategy to detect ONOO-. Two NIR squaraine (SQ) dyes were connected together to form a fluorescent probe (SQDC). This method utilizes the destructive effect of peroxynitrite on one of the SQ moieties of SQDC to eliminate the steric hindrance, enabling the other "survived" SQ segment to enter the hydrophobic cavity of bovine serum albumin (BSA) via the well-known host-guest interactions. The encapsulation of albumin protects the "survived" SQ from further attack of ONOO-. As a result, a NIR fluorescence turn-on response coming from the host-guest interaction between BSA and the "survived" SQ escaped from SQDC was found, which can be used for the detection of ONOO-. The assembly of SQDC mixed with BSA can be located in mitochondria to detect endogenous and exogenous ONOO- sensitively in living cells. As a proof-of-concept method, it is envisioned that this novel detection strategy with a simple assembly would become a powerful means for the detection of ONOO- when employing NIR fluorophores.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a hazardous gas found in living organisms and is directly tied to our daily lives. Recent studies show that it plays a significant role in plant growth, development, and response to environmental stresses. However, few of the reported near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes have been applied to rice and deeply investigated the influence of the external environment on the biological molecules in its internal environment. Therefore, our team created BSZ-H2S, which has the advantage of an emission wavelength of up to 720 nm with fast response, successfully applying it to cell and zebrafish imaging. More importantly, the probe detected H2S in rice roots by in situ imaging in a facile manner and verified the existence of an upregulation process of H2S in response to salt and drought stress. This work provides a concept for the intervention of external stresses in rice culture.

Abstract
Nitroxyl (HNO) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are considered to play important effects in the administration of many pathological processes of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the intricate relationship between the neurotoxicity of HNO and ER stress in the processes of PD is still unknown. To completely comprehend the pathogenic activity of HNO during ER stress and achieve early diagnosis of PD, developing sensitive tools for HNO sensing in vivo is essential. In this work, a two-photon fluorescent probe (KD-HNO) was developed with highly selective and sensitive (7.93 nM) response for HNO in vitro. Then, utilizing KD-HNO, we found that HNO levels were distinctly increased in tunicamycin-stimulated PC12 cells, which are characterized by ER stress and PD features. Most importantly, we detected a considerable increase in HNO levels in the brains of PD-model mice, indicating a positive correlation between PD and HNO levels for the first time. Collectively, these findings revealed that KD-HNO is an excellent tool not only for understanding the biological effects of HNO in pathological processes of PD but also for early PD diagnosis.

Abstract
Intracellular peroxynitrite anions (ONOO-) and microenvironments (such as viscosity and polarity) play an important role in maintaining redox homeostasis, regulating diffusion, transportation, and signal transduction in living cells. The abnormality of these factors is often closely related to various physiological/pathological processes. However, owing to the lack of suitable probes, the simultaneous visualization of ONOO-, viscosity, and polarity in ferroptosis and cancer models has not been achieved. To meet urgent needs, we presented a multifunctional near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe, named MQA-P, for simultaneously detecting ONOO-, viscosity, and polarity within mitochondria. The probe exhibited a remarkable turn-on response to ONOO- with the far-red emission of about 645 nm and was highly sensitive to viscosity/polarity in the NIR channel with λem > 704 nm. Facilitated by MQA-P, for the first time, we revealed that erastin-induced ferroptosis was accompanied by a significant upregulation of ONOO- and an increase of viscosity (or decrease of polarity) at the same time. Moreover, the concurrent use of ONOO-, viscosity, and polarity for the diagnosis of cancer has been successfully achieved not only at cell/tissue levels but also in tumor mice models. Compared with detecting only one factor, this simultaneous detection of multimarkers provides a more sensitive and reliable method/tool for tracking ferroptosis-related pathological processes and cancer diagnosis, holding great potential in preclinical research, medical diagnosis, and imaging-guided surgery.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous signaling molecule that greatly influences several important (patho)physiological processes related to cardiovascular health and disease, including vasodilation, angiogenesis, inflammation, and cellular redox homeostasis. Consequently, H2S supplementation is an emerging area of interest, especially for the treatment of cardiovascular-related diseases. To fully unlock the medicinal properties of hydrogen sulfide, however, the development and refinement of H2S releasing compounds (or donors) are required to augment its bioavailability and to better mimic its natural enzymatic production. Categorizing donors by the biological stimulus that triggers their H2S release, this review highlights the fundamental chemistry and releasing mechanisms of a range of H2S donors that have exhibited promising protective effects in models of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury and cancer chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity, specifically. Thus, in addition to serving as important investigative tools that further advance our knowledge and understanding of H2S chemical biology, the compounds highlighted in this review have the potential to serve as vital therapeutic agents for the treatment (or prevention) of various cardiomyopathies.

Abstract
Despite its relative simplicity, ethylene is an interesting molecule with wide-ranging impact in modern chemistry and biology. Stemming from ethylene's role as a critical plant hormone, there has been significant effort to develop selective and sensitive molecular sensors for ethylene. Late transition metal complexes have played an important role in detection strategies due to ethylene's lack of structural complexity and limited reactivity. Two main approaches to ethylene detection are identified: (1) coordination-based sensors, wherein ethylene binds reversibly to a metal center, and (2) activity-based sensors, wherein ethylene undergoes a reaction at a metal center, resulting in the formation and destruction of covalent bonds. Herein, we describe the advantages and disadvantages of various approaches, and the challenges remaining for sensor development.

Abstract
Elemental bromine is among the essential elements for human health. In living organisms, bromide (Br-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can be catalyzed by eosinophil peroxidase (EPO) to generate a reactive oxygen species (ROS), hypobromous acid (HOBr), which exhibits properties similar to those of hypochlorous acid (HOCl). Moreover, HOBr possesses strong oxidative and antibacterial properties, which are believed to play an important role in the neutrophil host defense system. However, overexpression or misexpression of HOBr can cause organismal and tissue damage, which is closely related to the development of various diseases. Therefore, an increasing number of studies has demonstrated physiological associations with the conversion of Br- to HOBr. With the development of fluorescence imaging technology, developing fluorescent probes with novel structures and high selectivity to detect changes in Br-, HOBr, and the related enzyme EPO levels in organisms has become very important. This paper summarizes Br-, HOBr, and EPO fluorescent probes reported in recent years, including the design principles, mechanisms, optical properties, and bioapplications. Finally, the application prospects and challenges are also discussed.

Abstract
Exploring the etiology of liver injury is critical to fundamental science and precise treatment, which has not yet been achieved by molecule imaging techniques. Herein, we manage to conquer this challenge by spatiotemporally monitoring oxidative stress processes using the proposed unit-emitting carbon dots (UE-C-dots) as fluorescent probes. We discover and reveal that the UE-C-dots can specifically determine hypochlorous acid (HClO) molecules, one of the important reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) in liver injury, by an excited state oxidation mechanism. Other ROS/RNS do not interfere with the assay even if their concentrations are 1000 times higher than that of HClO due to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital level mismatch. Real-time tomographic imaging demonstrates that different stimuli cause distinctly different HClO bursts in both temporal and spatial dimensionalities. Therefore, the measurement and analysis of temporal information substantially extend our understanding on the relationships of hepatic oxidative stress and corresponding physiological/pathological behaviors.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite and its radical decomposition products are highly reactive nitrogen and oxygen species that can influence the balance between health and disease in multiple organ systems. Despite vigorous research activity, real-time quantitative monitoring of peroxynitrite generated by donor compounds remains challenging. Here, we report a kinetics-based fluorescence method for quantitative tracking of peroxynitrite generation using the oxidative decarbonylation of isatin to form anthranilic acid as a fluorescent probe. This method relies on knowledge of the rate of the reaction of peroxynitrite with the probe, which we measure using stopped-flow fluorescence techniques. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first optical method capable of providing real-time quantitative measures of peroxynitrite concentrations generated from donor compounds, as demonstrated herein for SIN-1 and Angeli's salt.

Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and peroxynitrite (ONOO-) are two important highly reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, which commonly coexist in biosystems and play pivotal roles in many physiological and pathological processes. To investigate their function and correlations, it is urgently needed to construct chemical tools that can track the production of HOCl and ONOO- in biological systems with distinct fluorescence signals. Here, we found that the coumarin fluorescence of coumarin-benzopyrylium (CB) hydrazides (spirocyclic form) is dim, and their fluorescence properties are controlled by their benzopyran moiety via an intramolecular photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process. Based on this mechanism, we report the development of a fluorescent probe CB2-H for the simultaneous detection of HOCl and ONOO-. ONOO- can selectively oxidize the hydrazide group of CB2-H to afford the parent dye CB2 (Absmax/Emmax = 631/669 nm). In the case of HOCl, it undergoes an electrophilic attack on the benzopyran moiety of CB2-H to give a chlorinated product CB2-H-Cl, which inhibits the PET process within the probe and thus affords a turn-on fluorescence response at the coumarin channel (Absmax/Emmax = 407/468 nm). Due to the marked differences in absorption/emission wavelengths between the HOCl and ONOO- products, CB2-H enables the concurrent detection of HOCl and ONOO- at two independent channels without spectral cross-interference. CB2-H has been applied for dual-channel fluorescence imaging of endogenously produced HOCl and ONOO- in living cells and zebrafish under different stimulants. The present probe provides a useful tool for further exploring the distribution and correlation of HOCl and ONOO- in more biosystems.

Abstract
Abnormal intracellular peroxynitrite (ONOO-) concentration is related to oxidative damage, which is correlated with many pathological consequences, such as local inflammation and other diseases. In this work, a series of resorufin benzyl ether-based fluorescent probes were designed using boronate as a recognizing moiety installed on a phenyl moiety for ONOO- detection via a self-immolation mechanism. The location of the boronate as well as the substitution patterns on the phenyl moiety were investigated and the responding behaviors of the designed probes to ONOO-, other reactive oxygen species, and biothiols were examined. It was found that all the immolative probes were inevitably dominated by ONOO-. Compared with other probes, p-Borate possessed favorable selectivity and high sensitivity to ONOO-. Moreover, p-Borate was successfully used to detect ONOO- in cells and inflamed mice.

Abstract
It is crucial to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) because H2S plays a vital role in the regulation of many physiology and pathology processes. Many evidences indicate that endogenous H2S is closely associated with many diseases such as inflammation and cancers. Herein, we reported a novel fluorescent probe BTDI to monitor the fluctuation of H2S based on the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) mechanism both ex vivo and in vivo. The selectivity of BTDI for H2S is significantly higher than that for biothiols and other potential anions. After the probe responded to H2S, the nucleophilic addition reaction of the H2S with probe BTDI resulted the shifting of maximum emission peak from 630 nm to 542 nm and the fluorescent signals change from red to green emission along with a large Stokes shift (240 nm). Moreover, BTDI can be successfully applied to detect extracellular and endogenous H2S in living cells through fluorescent cell-imaging, which provides a promising tool for the specific recognition of H2S in complex biological systems.

Abstract
Three pyridinium derivatives bearing alkyl chains of different lengths (C1, C8, and C18) that show aggregation-enhanced emission were synthesized. These compounds can be used to detect ClO- ion as the reaction releases the fluorescent core with an increase in emission intensity and change in absorption wavelength. The lowest detection limit of TPA-Pyr-18C was 6.04 μM. The length of the alkyl chain and resulting lipophilicity allowed the targeting of different subcellular structures. TPA-Pyr-18C could be used for staining yolk lipids in zebrafish.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL), as one class of luminescence driven by chemical reaction, exhibits obvious temperature-dependence in its light emission process. Herein, temperature-dependent CL emission of carbon nanodots (CDs) in the chemical reaction of peroxalate and hydrogen peroxide is demonstrated and temperature imaging based on the temperature-dependent CL has been established for the first time. In detail, the temperature-dependent CL emission of CDs in the chemical reaction of peroxalate and hydrogen peroxide is observed, and the linear relationship between the CL intensity and temperature is demonstrated in both the CL solution and film, enabling their applications in temperature sensing and imaging capabilities. The increase of the CL emission with temperature can be attributed to the accelerated electron exchange between the CDs and intermediate generated in the peroxalate system. Meter-scale chemiluminescent CD films have been constructed. The CL sensor based on the films presents a high spatial resolution of 0.4 mm and an outstanding sensitivity of 0.08 °C-1, which is amongst the best values for the thermographic luminophores. With the unique temperature response and flexible properties, non-planar, meter-scale and sensitive palm temperature imaging has been achieved. These findings present new opportunities for designing CL-based temperature probes and thermography.

Abstract
The thiolysis of NBD piperazinyl amine (NBD-PZ) is highly selective for H2S over GSH and has been widely used for the development of many H2S fluorescent probes. Whether the NBD amine in H2S-specific probes could be a fluorescent quencher should be further clarified, because NBD amines have been used as environment-sensitive fluorophores for many years. Here, we compared the properties of NBD-based secondary and tertiary amines under the same conditions. For example, the emission of NBD-N(Et)2 is much smaller in water and less responsive to changes in polarity than that of NBD-NHEt. The emission of NBD-PZ-TPP is also smaller than that of NBD-NH-TPP both in aqueous buffer and in live cells. In addition, confocal bioimaging signals of NBD-PZ-TPP with excitation at 405 nm and 454 nm are much weaker than that at 488 nm. Based on these results as well as the previous work on NBD-based probes, we discuss and summarize the design strategies and sensing mechanisms for different NBD-based H2S probes. Moreover, NBD-PZ-TPP may be a useful tool for reaction with and imaging of mitochondrial H2S in live cells. This work should be useful for clarification of the roles of NBD in H2S-specific fluorescent probes as well as for facilitating the development of future NBD-based probes.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) impacts every aspect of life, and numerous sensing technologies have been established to detect and monitor this ubiquitous molecule. However, its selective sensing at the molecular level remains an unmet challenge, despite the tremendous potential of such an approach for understanding this molecule's role in complex environments. In this work, we introduce a unique class of selective fluorescent carbon dioxide molecular sensors (CarboSen) that addresses these existing challenges through an activity-based approach. Besides the design, synthesis, and evaluation of these small molecules as CO2 sensors, we demonstrate their utility by tailoring their reactivity and optical properties, allowing their use in a broad spectrum of multidisciplinary applications, including atmospheric sensing, chemical reaction monitoring, enzymology, and live-cell imaging. Collectively, these results showcase the potential of CarboSen sensors as broadly applicable tools to monitor and visualize carbon dioxide across multiple disciplines.

Abstract
Small-molecule-based second near-infrared (NIR-II) activatable fluorescent probes can potentially provide a high target-to-background ratio and deep tissue penetration. However, most of the reported NIR-II activatable small-molecule probes exhibit poor versatility owing to the lack of a general and stable optically tunable group. In this study, we designed NIRII-HDs, a novel dye scaffold optimized for NIR-II probe development. In particular, dye NIRII-HD5 showed the best optical properties such as proper pKa value, excellent stability, and high NIR-II brightness, which can be beneficial for in vivo imaging with high contrast. To demonstrate the applicability of the NIRII-HD5 dye, we designed three target-activatable NIR-II probes for ROS, thiols, and enzymes. Using these novel probes, we not only realized reliable NIR-II imaging of different diseases in mouse models but also evaluated the redox potential of liver tissue during a liver injury in vivo with high fidelity.

Abstract
The carbon nanomaterial based fluorescent probes have been widely applied in biological imaging. In the current research, we propose an interesting strategy for selective sensing of hypochlorite (ClO-) by a water-soluble and highly fluorescent nanosensor based on the N-doped carbon quantum dots (CDs) which was fabricated by a facile and environmental friendly hydrothermal approach from polyvinyl pyrrolidone, L-arginine and tryptophan. The structural characteristics of the probe were measured by multitudinous methods which proved the nanometer spherical structure of the probe and the successfully N-doping. Fluorescent investigation demonstrated that the probe is not only highly stable under interferences of pH, ionic strength, and irradiation, but also significantly selective toward ClO- amongst a variety of attractive bioactive species through the fluorescent quenching process which was correlative with the concentration of ClO- and linearly in the range of 0.1-50 μmol·L-1 with the sensitivity of 0.03 μmol·L-1. The probe can also be further illustrated in a prospective application for determination of ClO- in environmental water through both solution response and filer paper sensing. Moreover, the positive biocompatibility and ignorable cytotoxicity made the probe a promising effective agent for detection and visualizing ClO- in living cells which can facilitate the understanding the oxidative stress from the overexpressing ClO-.

Abstract
In this work, we chose the fluorophore Berberrubine to develop a selective probe for hydrogen polysulfide (H2Sn), and applied it into the detection in both food samples and living cells. The developed probe, HER9SS, suggested practical steadiness and serviceability, especially for multi-scene detection. The detecting system was stable in relatively wide pH (7.0-11.0) and temperature (25-45 °C) ranges. Both the storage of BER9SS in solid or in solution could maintain the steadiness over 7 d. BER9SS also indicated advantages including rapid response (within 15 min), high sensitivity (LOD = 0.02 μM; LOQ = 0.01 μM), long linear range (0-15.0 equivalent) and high selectivity among competing analytes. The recovery ranging in 95.23% - 104.8% in the applications in food sources samples (including water and plants) and food samples inferred the practical potential of BER9SS. In biological imaging, BER9SS could achieve both the dose-dependent monitoring and the β-lapachone-induced generation of H2Sn. Therefore, the information in this work might be useful for the development of fluorescent probes from natural products for multi-scene applications in future, especially with the corresponding attentions on the practicability and serviceability.

Anal Chim Acta 2022; 1192:339341. [PMID: 35057948 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2021.339341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Revised: 11/16/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The reaction of NO and H2S to form HNO is a classical pathway in physiological conditions. The reported single recognition-type fluorescent probes are difficult to track precisely the relationships of H2S and HNO. It is necessary to develop a bifunctional fluorescence probe (NJA) for monitoring simultaneously the production of endogenous HNO and H2S. Using 7-Nitrobenzofurazan (NBD) and 2-(diphenylphosphine) benzoate as recognition sites, the obatined NJA can detect specifically HS- and HNO. The detection limit of HS- and HNO are 0.46 μM and 1.42 μM, respectively. Based on the dual recognition sites and input signals of the probe, a molecular "AND" logic gate was established to detect successfully H2S and HNO in MCF-7 cells. NJA based on "AND logic" provided a simple and robust tool for monitoring the production of endogenous HNO correlative with H2S and NO in living cells.

Abstract
Significance: Reactive sulfur and nitrogen species such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric oxide (NO•) are ubiquitous cellular signaling molecules that play central roles in physiology and pathophysiology. A deeper understanding of these signaling pathways will offer new opportunities for therapeutic treatments and disease management. Recent Advances: Chemiluminescence methods have been fundamental in detecting and measuring biological reactive sulfur and nitrogen species, and new approaches are emerging for imaging these analytes in living intact specimens. Ozone-based and luminol-based chemiluminescence methods have been optimized for quantitative analysis of hydrogen sulfide and nitric oxide in biological samples and tissue homogenates, and caged luciferin and 1,2-dioxetanes are emerging as a versatile approach for monitoring and imaging reactive sulfur and nitrogen species in living cells and animal models. Critical Issues: This review article will cover the major chemiluminescence approaches for detecting, measuring, and imaging reactive sulfur and nitrogen species in biological systems, including a brief history of the development of the most established approaches and highlights of the opportunities provided by emerging approaches. Future Directions: Emerging chemiluminescence approaches offer new opportunities for monitoring and imaging reactive sulfur and nitrogen species in living cells, animals, and human clinical samples. Widespread adoption and translation of these approaches, however, requires an emphasis on rigorous quantitative methods, reproducibility, and effective technology transfer. Antioxid.

Abstract
H2S is a gaseous signaling molecule that is involved in many physiological and pathological processes. In general, the level of intracellular H2S (<1 μM) is much lower than that of GSH (∼1-10 mM), leading to the remaining challenge of selective detection and differentiation of endogenous H2S in live biosystems. To this end, we quantitatively demonstrate that the thiolysis of NBD amine has much higher selectivity for H2S over GSH than that of the reduction of aryl azide. Subsequently, we developed the first NBD-based cell-trappable probe 1 (AM-BODIPY-NBD) for highly selective and ultrasensitive imaging of intracellular H2S. Probe 1 demonstrates a 207-fold fluorescence enhancement at 520 nm after reaction with H2S/esterase to produce a bright BODIPY (quantum yield 0.42) and a detection limit of 15.7 nM. Probe 1 is water-soluble, cell-trappable, and not cytotoxic. Based on this excellent chemical tool, relative levels of basal H2S in different cell lines were measured to reveal a positive correlation between endogenous H2S and the metastatic potential of colon and breast cancer cells. In addition, H2S biogenesis in vivo was also validated by probe 1 both in tobacco leaves under viral infection and in zebrafish after tail amputation. It is anticipated that probe 1 will have widespread applications in imaging and for investigating different H2S-related biological processes and diseases.

Abstract
Two simple turn-on fluorescent probes, containing a benzothiazole and the 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl group, were designed for detecting H2S. Two probes exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity, which were applied to detect the H2S in real water samples. Probe P2 with a positive charge had better solubility than probe P1 in water; therefore, probe P2 was successfully applied to detect both the endogenous and exogenous H2S in lysosomes of living HeLa cells.

Abstract
Malignant tumors are one of the main causes for human death and are tightly associated with overexpression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in pathological processes. Therefore, in vivo monitoring of ROS, especially ONOO-, remains of great significance for diagnosis and therapy of tumors to improve the survival rate. Herein, we designed and constructed a reliable near-infrared (NIR) ratiometric fluorescent biosensor CDMS for monitoring the fluctuations of ONOO- in the process of tumor progression. CDMS featured outstanding stability to photoirradiation, substantial quantum yields, rapid response (<5 s), high selectivity and excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, CDMS exhibited distinct ratiometric fluorescence signal changes after reacting with ONOO-. Fluorescence imaging in immune stimulated cells indicated that CDMS was competent to determine the levels of ONOO- in the cellular level. Remarkably, CDMS was further applied in monitoring the expression of ONOO- in a peritonitis mouse model and tumor-bearing mouse model. Based on the excellent properties of CDMS, the probe exhibited the potential for noninvasive in vivo visualization of ONOO- in the occurrence and process of tumor development. It is envisioned that CDMS can be employed as a promising tool for monitoring the ONOO- fluxes in tumor pathological progression, especially for tumor diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence is a fascinating phenomenon that evolved in nature and has been harnessed by chemists in diverse ways to improve life. This Account tells the story of our research group's efforts to formulate and manifest spiroadamantane 1,2-dioxetanes with triggerable chemiluminescence for imaging and monitoring important reactive analytes in living cells, animals, and human clinical samples. Analytes like reactive sulfur, oxygen and nitrogen species, as well as pH and hypoxia can be indicators of cellular function or dysfunction and are often implicated in the causes and effects of disease. We begin with a foundation in binding-based and activity-based fluorescence imaging that has provided transformative tools for understanding biological systems. The intense light sources required for fluorescence excitation, however, introduce autofluorescence and light scattering that reduces sensitivity and complicates in vivo imaging. Our work and the work of our collaborators were the first to demonstrate that spiroadamantane 1,2-dioxetanes had sufficient brightness and biological compatibility for in vivo imaging of enzyme activity and reactive analytes like hydrogen sulfide (H2S) inside of living mice. This launched an era of renewed interest in 1,2-dioxetanes that has resulted in a plethora of new chemiluminescence imaging agents developed by groups around the world. Our own research group focused its efforts on reactive sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen species, pH, and hypoxia, resulting in a large family of bright chemiluminescent 1,2-dioxetanes validated for cell monitoring and in vivo imaging. These chemiluminescent probes feature low background and high sensitivity that have been proven quite useful for studying signaling, for example, the generation of peroxynitrite (ONOO-) in cellular models of immune function and phagocytosis. This high sensitivity has also enabled real-time quantitative reporting of oxygen-dependent enzyme activity and hypoxia in living cells and tumor xenograft models. We reported some of the first ratiometric chemiluminescent 1,2-dioxetane systems for imaging pH and have introduced a powerful kinetics-based approach for quantification of reactive species like azanone (nitroxyl, HNO) and enzyme activity in living cells. These tools have been applied to untangle complex signaling pathways of peroxynitrite production in radiation therapy and as substrates in a split esterase system to provide an enzyme/substrate pair to rival luciferase/luciferin. Furthermore, we have pushed chemiluminescence toward commercialization and clinical translation by demonstrating the ability to monitor airway hydrogen peroxide in the exhaled breath of asthma patients using transiently produced chemiluminescent 1,2-dioxetanedione intermediates. This body of work shows the powerful possibilities that can emerge when working at the interface of light and chemistry, and we hope that it will inspire future scientists to seek out ever brighter and more illuminating ideas.

Abstract
A new morpholine functionalized coumarin-based fluorescent probe 1 was easily synthesized. The probe realized the sequentially detecting of Cu2+ and H2S in the HEPES buffer solution (20 mM, pH = 5.0). It made a turn-off fluorescence response to Cu2+ by using a complex formation with a 2:1 binding mode, and the resulting complex was able to detect H2S according to the displacement approach with a turn-on fluorescence response. The detecting limits of probe 1 for Cu2+ and 1-Cu2+ system for H2S were calculated to be 26 nM and 88.5 nM, respectively. This "on-off-on" recognition process was demonstrated by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, using proton nuclear magnetic resonance studies, electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and using density functional theory calculations. In addition, both cell imaging and co-staining experiments showed that the probe could be utilized to visually detect Cu2+ and H2S in lysosomes.

Abstract
Mechanical interlocking of a nanohoop fluorophore and a reactive thread couples the benefits of a reaction-based probe with a sterically congested active site for enhanced selectivity. Advantageously, the thread design uses dual function stoppers that act as both a quencher and a trigger for sensing. In progress toward expanding this approach to biologically relevant analytes, this system is used to demonstrate steric differentiation and provide a selective turn-on fluorescent response with size selectivity for HS- rather than larger thiolates.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) has a wide array of biological functions including the regulation of vascular tone, neurotransmission, immunomodulation, stimulation of proinflammatory cytokine expression and antimicrobial action. These functions may depend on the type of isoform that is responsible for the synthesis of NO. NO is found in various ocular tissues playing a pivotal role in physiological mechanisms, namely regulating vascular tone in the uvea, retinal blood circulation, aqueous humor dynamics, neurotransmission and phototransduction in retinal layers. Unregulated production of NO in ocular tissues may result in production of toxic superoxide free radicals that participate in ocular diseases such as endotoxin-induced uveitis, ischemic proliferative retinopathy and neurotoxicity of optic nerve head in glaucoma. However, the role of NO on the ocular surface in mediating physiology and pathophysiological processes is not fully understood. Moreover, methods used to measure levels of NO in the biological samples of the ocular surface are not well established due to its rapid oxidation. The purpose of this review is to highlight the role of NO in the physiology and pathophysiology of ocular surface and propose suitable techniques to measure NO levels in ocular surface tissues and tears. This will improve the understanding of NO's role in ocular surface biology and the development of new NO-based therapies to treat various ocular surface diseases. Further, this review summarizes the biochemistry underpinning NO's antimicrobial action.
