Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecules have great potential to enhance the performance of micronano lasers due to their excellent aggregated luminescence properties, so it is valuable to expand their applications in micronano lasers. In this work, a typical AIE active fluorescent dye motif 9,10-bis(2,2-diphenylvinyl) anthracene (BDPVA) was selected as the gain medium. First, drop-casting was used to fabricate BDPVA single-crystal nanowires, which can be used as Fabry-Perot (FP)-type resonators with a lasing threshold of 49.4 μJ/cm2. Furthermore, we innovatively doped BDPVA molecules as gain mediums into external polymer Whispering-Gallery-Mode (WGM)-type resonators via the emulsion self-assembly method. Fabricated BDPVA-doped polystyrene (PS) microspheres exhibit a much lower lasing threshold of 9.04 μJ/cm2. These results prove that the BDPVA molecules, in addition to realizing the reported AIE single-crystal lasers, can also be used as a guest-doped gain medium in the resonant cavity for obtaining better fluorescence gain. In addition, multimode tunability of two types of lasers has been successfully achieved by tuning the structure of the resonant cavity. This work further expands the application potential of AIE materials and will provide a useful reference for the rational design and fabrication of photonic micronano laser components using AIE materials.

Talanta 2024; 272:125767. [PMID: 38428128 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.125767] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
Herein, polysiloxane-based aggregation-induced emission (AIE) polymers and rubbers were prepared which display interesting multi-stimuli responsive fluorescence. TPE-modified polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS-TPE) as polysiloxane-based AIE polymers were synthesized through Heck reaction of bromo-substituted tetraphenylethene (TPE-Br) and vinyl polysiloxanes. As expected, TPE moiety endows the modified polysiloxane with typical AIE behavior. However, limited by the long polymer chains, the aggregation process of PDMS-TPE shows obvious differences compared with the small molecule TPE-Br. The fluorescence of PDMS-TPE in THF/H2O starts to increase when the H2O fraction (fw) is 70% while TPE-Br is nearly non-luminous until the fw is up to 99%. The fluorescence intensity ratio (I/I0) of PDMS-TPE in the aggregated state and dispersed state is over 1300, greater than that of TPE-Br (I/I0 = 380). More importantly, the exceptional thermal motion of Si-O-Si chains and AIE characteristic of TPE moiety work together, enabling PDMS-TPE to show specific temperature-dependent fluorescence with a wider response range of room temperature to 190°C, which is distinguished from TPE-Br. And such fluorescence responsiveness possess good fatigue-resistance. Furthermore, fluorescent silicone rubbers, r-PDMS-TPE were prepared by using PDMS-TPE as additive of the base gum. They display interesting solvent-controllable fluorescence and higher tensile strength (4.42 MPa) than the control sample without TPE component (1.96 MPa). Notably, a unique stretching-enhanced emission (SEE) phenomenon is observed from these TPE-modified silicone rubbers. When being stretched, the rubbers' fluorescent emission intensity could increase by 143%.

Abstract
Fluorescence probe technology holds great promise in the application of trace explosive detection due to its high sensitivity, fast response speed, good selectivity, and low cost. In this work, a designed approach has been employed to prepare the TPE-PA-8 molecule, utilizing the classic aggregation-induced emission (AIE) property of 1,1,2,2-tetraphenylethene (TPE), for the development of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) targeting the detection of trace nitroaromatic compound (NAC) explosives. The phosphoric acid acts as an anchoring unit, connecting to TPE through an alkyl chain of eight molecules, which has been found to play a crucial role in promoting the aggregation of TPE luminogens, leading to the enhanced light-emission property and sensing performance of SAMs. The SAMs assembled on Al2O3-deposited fiber film exhibit remarkable detection performances, with detection limits of 0.68 ppm, 1.68 ppm, and 2.5 ppm for trinitrotoluene, dinitrotoluene, and nitrobenzene, respectively. This work provides a candidate for the design and fabrication of flexible sensors possessing the high-performance and user-friendly detection of trace NACs.

Abstract
High-fidelity imaging and long-term visualization of lysosomes are pivotal factors in the functional assessment of lysosomes, which perform an instrumental role in the physiological activity of cells. However, commercial probes have great limitations in lysosome exploration resulting from the aggregation-caused quenching effect as well as photobleaching instability and small Stokes shift. Therefore, we constructed a novel probe named TTAM with triphenylamine as the matrix and morpholine ring as the targeting group. In contrast with commonly accessible Lyso-tracker Red, TTAM has the merits of aggregation-induced emission effect, extremely high quantum yields (51.57 % solid-state) as well as fluorescence intensity, significant photostability, and high resolution. These properties make it ideal for imaging and activity monitoring lysosomes, which provides a powerful condition for bio-imaging.

Abstract
Due to high incidence, poor prognosis, and easy transformation into pancreatic cancer (PC) with high mortality, early diagnosis and prevention of acute pancreatitis (AP) have become significant research focuses. In this work, we proposed a magnetic single-drop microextraction (SDME) system with spatial confinement to enhance the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect for simultaneous fluorescence detection of miRNA-155 (associated with AP) and miRNA-196a (associated with PC). The target miRNAs were selectively recognized by the hairpin probe and triggered the DNA amplification reaction; then, the DNA strands with two independent probes of G-quadruplex/TAIN and Cy5 were constructed on the surfaces of the magnetic beads. The SDME process, in which a drop containing the fluorescence probes was formed at the tip of the magnetic microextraction rod rapidly within 10 s, was performed by magnetic extraction. In this way, G-quadruplex/TAIN was enriched owing to the spatial confinement of the single-drop system, and the fluorescence signal given off (by G-quadruplex/TAIN) was highly enhanced (AIE effect). This was detected directly by fluorescence spectrophotometry. The approach achieved low limits of detection of 2.1 aM for miRNA-196a and 8.1 aM for miRNA-155 and wide linear ranges from 10 aM to 10 nM for miRNA-196a and from 25 aM to 10 nM for miRNA-155. This novel method was applied to the fluorescence detection of miRNAs in human serum samples. High relative recoveries from 95.6% to 104.8% were obtained.

Abstract
Metallacages with suitable cavities and specific functions are promising delivery vectors in biological systems. Herein, we report a morpholine-functionalized metallacage for lysosome-targeted cell imaging. The efficient host-guest interactions between the metallacage and dyes prevent them from aggregation, so their emission in aqueous solutions is well maintained. The fluorescence quantum yield of these host-guest complexes reaches 74.40%. Therefore, the metallacage is further employed as a vector to deliver dyes with different emission colors (blue, green, and red) into lysosomes for targeted imaging. This research affords a type of vector for the delivery of various cargos toward biological applications, which will enrich the usage of metallacages in biomedical engineering.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens with highly tunable properties show great potential for many applications. In this study, we synthesized a new family of AIE-type poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(9-anthrylmethyl lysine) (PEG-b-PLys-An) diblock copolymers by taking advantage of amphiphilic self-assembly and rigid helical backbones. These copolymers can self-assemble into various assemblies through nanoprecipitation methods. The micelles using N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as a cosolvent present brighter fluorescence than the vesicles prepared from tetrahydrofuran (THF). We demonstrate that the decreased solubility of copolymers in DMF results in the formation of more compact micelles with more excimer formation during the self-assembly process, while better solvent THF favors the formation of vesicles with stretched core chains. In addition, the secondary conformation of the polypeptide block shows pronounced effects on the fluorescence property. We further show the internalization of the assemblies using two types of cells by cellular uptake experiments. By the delicate design of the block copolymer, we successfully prepare the morphology- and conformation-dependent AIE materials for potential biomedical applications.

Abstract
Stemming from unique ring structures, heterocyclic polymers exhibit distinguished electrical, mechanical, and photophysical properties and have been widely used in a variety of important applications. Along with the technological significance are the challenges in their synthesis. Traditional synthetic strategies toward heterocyclic polymers often require the direct attachment of heterocycles to polymer backbones, which are generally limited by the lack of suitable and low-cost heterocyclic monomers, tedious reaction process, difficulties in incorporation of multiple substitutents, etc. Alternatively, in situ construction of heterocyclic polymers via triple-bond based polymerization offers promising prospects. This review summarized the recent progress on polymerizations of triple-bond based monomers including alkynes, nitriles, and isonitriles that can in situ generate heterocyclic polymers. The properties and advanced applications of the derived heterocyclic polymers will also be discussed. Finally, the future perspectives and challenges in this field will be addressed.

Abstract
The enhancement of photoluminescence through formation of molecular aggregates in organic oligomers and conjugated organic polymers is reviewed. A historical contextualization of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomena is presented. This includes the loose bolt or free rotor effect and J-aggregation phenomena, and discusses their characteristic features, including structures and mechanisms. The basis of both effects is examined in key molecules, with a particular emphasis on the AIE effect occurring in conjugated organic polymers with a polythiophene (PT) skeleton with triphenylethylene (TPE) units. Rigidification of the excited state structure is one of the defining conditions required to obtain AIE, and thus, by changing from a flexible ground state to rigid (quinoidal-like) structures, oligo and PTs are among the most promising emerging molecules alongside with the more extensively used TPE derivatives. Molecular structures moving away from the domination of aggregation-caused quenching to AIE are presented. Future perspectives for the rational design of AIEgen structures are discussed.

Abstract
Biofluorescence in living entities is a functional process associated with information conveyance; whereas the capacity to respond to internal physiological signals is a unique property of a cell. By integrating these two biological features into materials design, a bioinspired material, namely CPS, is developed. Contrary to conventional luminescent polymeric systems whose emission comes from π-conjugated structures, this material displays clusterization-triggered emission. In the preclinical trial on a dermal punch model of tissue repair, it successfully increases the rate of wound closure, reduces inflammatory cell infiltration, and enhances collagen deposition. It can also relay changes in internal chemical signals into changes in its intrinsic luminescence for biphasic chemical sensing to prevent possible occurrence of skin hyperpigmentation caused by minocycline hydrochloride in wound therapy. Together with its ease of fabrication, high biocompatibility, high drug loading efficiency, and high release sustainability, CPS shows high potential to be developed into an intelligent solid-state device for wound treatment in the future.

Abstract
(E)-N'-((2-Hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)picolinohydrazide (H-PNAP) shows aggregation-induced emission (AIE) strictly in a 90% water/MeOH (v/v) mixture at 540 nm, and the solid-state emission is blue-shifted to 509 nm upon excitation at 400 nm. The AIE activity of H-PNAP is selectively quenched by 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) out of different nitroaromatic compounds with a limit of detection (LOD) of 7.79 × 10-7 and 9.08 × 10-7 M, respectively. The probe is nonemissive in aqueous medium (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid, HEPES buffer, pH 7.2); however, it shows a strong emission to Al3+ (λem, 490 nm) in the presence of 17 other biological metal ions, and the LOD is 2.09 nM which is far below the WHO recommended value (7.41 mM). The emission of the [Al(PNAP)(NO3)2] complex is quenched by HF2 - (F- and PO4 3- are weak quencher), and the LOD is as low as 15 nM. The probable mechanism of the sensing feature of the probe has been authenticated by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance titration, mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Benesi-Hildebrand plot, and Job's plot in each case. The probe has some practical applications such as recovery of Al3+ from the drinking water sample, construction of the INHIBIT logic gate, and detection kits for Al3+ and TNP/DNP by simple paper test strips. The probe, H-PNAP, has successfully been applied to the detection of intracellular Al3+ and HF2 - ions in the human breast cancer cell, MDA-MB-468.

Abstract
A dual-emission pyrene-based new fluorescent probe (N-(4-nitro-phenyl)-N'-pyren-1-ylmethyl-ene-ethane-1,2-diamine (PyDA-NP)) displays green fluorescence for nitric oxide (NO) sensing, whereas it exhibits blue emission in the aggregated state. The mechanism of nitric oxide (NO/NO+) sensing is based on N-nitrosation of aromatic secondary amine, which was not interfered by reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species. The aggregation-induced enhancement of emission (AIEE) behaviors of the PyDA-NP could be attributed to the restriction of intramolecular rotation and vibration, resulting in rigidity enhancement of the molecules. The AIEE behavior of the probe was well established from fluorescence, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, optical fluorescence microscopy, and time-resolved photoluminescence studies. In a H2O/CH3CN binary mixture (8:2 v/v), the probe showed maximum aggregation with extensive (833-fold) increases in fluorescence intensity and high quantum yield (0.79). The aggregated state of the probe was further applied for the detection of nitroexplosives. It displayed efficient sensing of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP), corroborating mainly the charge-transfer process from pyrene to a highly electron-deficient TNP moiety. Furthermore, for the on-site practical application of the proposed analytical system, a contact-mode analysis was performed.

Abstract
Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) imaging probes have recently received considerable attention because of their unique property of high performance in the aggregated state and their imaging capability. However, the tendency of AIE molecules to aggregate into micron long irregular shapes, which significantly limits their application in vivo, is becoming a serious issue that needs to be addressed. Here, we introduce a novel engineering strategy to tune the morphology and size of AIE nanoaggregates, based on flash nanoprecipitation (FNP). Quinolinemalononitrile (ED) is encapsulated inside properly selected amphiphilic block copolymers of varying concentration. This leads to a variety of ED particle morphologies with different sizes. The shape and size are found to have strong influences on tumor targeting both in vitro and in vivo. The current results therefore indicate that the FNP method together with optimal choice of an amphiphilic copolymer is a universal method to systematically control the aggregation state of AIE materials and hence tune the morphology and size of AIE nanoaggregates, which is potentially useful for precise imaging at specific tumor sites.
