Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common tumor worldwide and requires crucial molecular typing for treatment and prognosis assessment. Currently, approaches like pathological staining, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunofluorescence (IF) face limitations due to the low signal-to-background ratio (SBR) and high tumor heterogeneity, resulting in a high misdiagnosis rate. Fluorescent assay in the second near-infrared region (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) exhibits ultrahigh SBR owing to diminished scattering and tissue autofluorescence. Here, we present a NIR-II strategy for accurate BC molecular typing and three-dimensional (3D) visualization based on the atomically precise fluorescent Au24Pr1 clusters. Single-atom Pr doping results in 3.9-fold fluorescence enhancement and long-term photostability. The Au24Pr1 clusters possess high fluorescence centered at ∼1100 nm and the SBR on pathological section diagnosis was 4 times higher than that of NIR-I imaging. This enables high spatial resolution 3D visualization of biopsy specimens, which can surmount tissue heterogeneity for clinical diagnosis of BC.

Abstract
Manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanomaterials can react with trace hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce paramagnetic manganese (Mn2+) and oxygen (O2), which can be used for magnetic resonance imaging and alleviate the hypoxic environment of tumors, respectively. MnO2 nanomaterials also can oxidize glutathione (GSH) to produce oxidized glutathione (GSSG) to break the balance of intracellular redox reactions. As a consequence of the sensitivity of the tumor microenvironment to MnO2-based nanomaterials, these materials can be used as multifunctional diagnostic and therapeutic platforms for tumor imaging and treatment. Importantly, when MnO2 nanomaterials are implanted along with other therapeutics, synergetic tumor therapy can be achieved. In addition to tumor treatment, MnO2-based nanomaterials display promising prospects for tissue repair, organ protection, and the treatment of other diseases. Herein, we provide a thorough review of recent progress in the use of MnO2-based nanomaterials for biomedical applications, which may be helpful for the design and clinical translation of next-generation MnO2 nanomaterials.

Abstract
Single phototherapy and immunotherapy have individually made great achievements in tumor treatment. However, monotherapy has difficulty in balancing accuracy and efficiency. Combining phototherapy with immunotherapy can realize the growth inhibition of distal metastatic tumors and enable the remote monitoring of tumor treatment. The development of nanomaterials with photo-responsiveness and anti-tumor immunity activation ability is crucial for achieving photo-immunotherapy. As immune adjuvants, photosensitizers and photothermal agents, manganese-based nanoparticles (Mn-based NPs) have become a research hotspot owing to their multiple ways of anti-tumor immunity regulation, photothermal conversion and multimodal imaging. However, systematic studies on the synergistic photo-immunotherapy applications of Mn-based NPs are still limited; especially, the green synthesis and mechanism of Mn-based NPs applied in immunotherapy are rarely comprehensively discussed. In this review, the synthesis strategies and function of Mn-based NPs in immunotherapy are first introduced. Next, the different mechanisms and leading applications of Mn-based NPs in immunotherapy are reviewed. In addition, the advantages of Mn-based NPs in synergistic photo-immunotherapy are highlighted. Finally, the challenges and research focus of Mn-based NPs in combination therapy are discussed, which might provide guidance for future personalized cancer therapy.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy is favored by cancer researchers due to its advantages such as controllable initiation, direct killing and immune promotion. However, the low enrichment efficiency of photosensitizer in tumor site and the limited effect of single use limits the further development of photothermal therapy. Herein, a photo-responsive multifunctional nanosystem was designed for cancer therapy, in which myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) membrane vesicle encapsulated decitabine-loaded black phosphorous (BP) nanosheets (BP@ Decitabine @MDSCs, named BDM). The BDM demonstrated excellent biosafety and biochemical characteristics, providing a suitable microenvironment for cancer cell killing. First, the BDM achieves the ability to be highly enriched at tumor sites by inheriting the ability of MDSCs to actively target tumor microenvironment. And then, BP nanosheets achieves hyperthermia and induces mitochondrial damage by its photothermal and photodynamic properties, which enhancing anti-tumor immunity mediated by immunogenic cell death (ICD). Meanwhile, intra-tumoral release of decitabine induced G2/M cell cycle arrest, further promoting tumor cell apoptosis. In vivo, the BMD showed significant inhibition of tumor growth with down-regulation of PCNA expression and increased expression of high mobility group B1 (HMGB1), calreticulin (CRT) and caspase 3. Flow cytometry revealed significantly decreased infiltration of MDSCs and M2-macrophages along with an increased proportion of CD4+, CD8+ T cells as well as CD103+ DCs, suggesting a potentiated anti-tumor immune response. In summary, BDM realizes photothermal therapy/photodynamic therapy synergized chemotherapy for cancer.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy, a field within immunology that aims to enhance the host's anti-cancer immune response, frequently encounters challenges associated with suboptimal response rates. The presence of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), crucial constituents of the tumor microenvironment (TME), exacerbates this issue by fostering immunosuppression and impeding T cell differentiation and maturation. Consequently, targeting MDSCs has emerged as crucial for immunotherapy aimed at enhancing anti-tumor responses. The development of nanomedicines specifically designed to target MDSCs aims to improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy by transforming immunosuppressive tumors into ones more responsive to immune intervention. This review provides a detailed overview of MDSCs in the TME and current strategies targeting these cells. Also the benefits of nanoparticle-assisted drug delivery systems, including design flexibility, efficient drug loading, and protection against enzymatic degradation, are highlighted. It summarizes advances in nanomedicine targeting MDSCs, covering enhanced treatment efficacy, safety, and modulation of the TME, laying the groundwork for more potent cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (pEMT) plays a vital role in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cervical lymph node metastasis and tumor immune escape as an immune barrier. However, targeted interventions for pEMT have yet to be established. In this study, we generated an αPDPN-Ag2S probe by modifying a Podoplanin(PDPN) monoclonal antibody on the surface of near infrared (NIR)-II Ag2S quantum dots (QDs) with carboxyl groups through an amide reaction. Then, we evaluated its in vivo targeting ability, therapeutic efficacy of eliminating pEMT using αPDPN-Ag2S-mediated NIR-II photoimmunotherapy (PIT) and biological safety. Here, we found that pEMT is related to CD8 + T-cell infiltration in our human OSCC tissue microarray. Compared with PdpnWT SCC7, the slower growth rate of subcutaneous graft tumors implanted with PdpnKD SCC7 was associated with a change in the tumor immune microenvironment (TIM) in an immunocompetent C3H/HeJ mouse model. In vitro, αPDPN-Ag2S plus NIR 808 nm laser irradiation induced SCC7 cell death. In vivo, NIR-II imaging results show that the αPDPN-Ag2S probe has a good active-targeting ability in a 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO)-induced C57 mouse OSCC model and C3H/HeJ SCC7 subcutaneous graft tumor model. Elimination of pEMT cells by NIR-II αPDPN-Ag2S probe-mediated PIT significantly reversed the local immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and enhanced PD-1 immunotherapy efficacy. The safety profiles of αPDPN-Ag2S in BALB/c mice were also acceptable. Thus, αPDPN-Ag2S has important clinical translational value in predicting the risk of cervical lymph node metastasis. Importantly, our study proposed a new way to improve the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
The responses of patients to tumor therapies vary due to tumor heterogeneity. Tumor stratification has been attracting increasing attention for accurately distinguishing between responders to treatment and non-responders. Nanoprobes with unique physical and chemical properties have great potential for patient stratification. This review begins by describing the features and design principles of nanoprobes that can visualize specific cell types and biomarkers and release inflammatory factors during or before tumor treatment. Then, we focus on the recent advancements in using nanoprobes to stratify various therapeutic modalities, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy (RT), photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), ferroptosis, and immunotherapy. The main challenges and perspectives of nanoprobes in cancer stratification are also discussed to facilitate probe development and clinical applications.

Abstract
Iatrogenic nerve injury is a significant complication in surgery, which can negatively impact patients' quality of life. Currently, the main clinical neuroimaging methods, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and high-resolution ultrasonography, do not offer precise real-time positioning images for doctors during surgery. The clinical application of optical molecular imaging technology has led to the emergence of new concepts such as optical molecular imaging surgery, targeted surgery, and molecular-guided surgery. These advancements have made it possible to directly visualize surgical target areas, thereby providing a novel method for real-time identification of nerves during surgery planning. Unlike traditional white light imaging, optical molecular imaging technology enables precise positioning and identifies the cation of intraoperative nerves through the presentation of color images. Although a large number of experiments and data support its development, there are few reports on its actual clinical application. This paper summarizes the research results of optical molecular imaging technology and its ability to realize neural visualization. Additionally, it discusses the challenges neural visualization recognition faces and future development opportunities.

Abstract
CPNE1 regulates multiple signaling pathways and can stimulate cell proliferation and differentiation by activating the AKT-mTOR signaling pathway. In addition, CPNE1 is associated with various cancers; however, its role in breast cancer, particularly in TNBC, has not been fully elucidated. Our study aimed to reveal the impact of the CPNE1/PI3K/AKT/HIF-1α axis on TNBC. We first measured the expression of CPNE1 in the tumor tissues of TNBC patients and examined its prognostic value. Subsequently, we used sh-CPNE1 and overexpression vectors to transfect TNBC cell lines and analyzed cell viability, migration, and invasive abilities using colony formation and CCK-8 assays. Metabolites were analyzed through metabolomics. We found that higher expression of CPNE1 predicted poor prognosis in TNBC patients. Knockdown of CPNE1 reduced the viability, migration, invasion, and proliferation capabilities of TNBC cells. Furthermore, metabolomics analysis showed that glucose metabolism was the most dominant pathway, and knockdown of CPNE1 significantly limited the glycolytic activity of TNBC cells. We verified these conclusions in mouse models. Additionally, we overexpressed CPNE1 and treated TNBC cell lines with a PI3K inhibitor (LY294002). The results indicated that CPNE1 promoted aerobic glycolysis in TNBC cells through the PI3K/AKT/HIF-1α signaling pathway. This suggests that CPNE1 regulates cell glycolysis and participates in the development of TNBC. Our study may provide a new therapeutic target for TNBC treatment.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2023; 10:e2207486. [PMID: 37088829 PMCID: PMC10288272 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202207486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2022] [Revised: 03/01/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging poses significant superiority over traditional medical imaging for tumor resection, thus having attracted widely attention. However, for tiny tumor residues, it requires relative high sensitivity to determine. Here, based on persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs), an ultrasensitive nanoprobe with extraordinary tumor imaging result is developed to guide surgical removal. Persistent luminescence (PersL) is quenched in normal tissue by the outer layer of MnO2 , and is recovered due to the degradation of MnO2 in tumor microenvironment, significantly improving the sensitivity of tumor imaging. Combined with the absence of background fluorescence in imaging of PLNPs, ultrahigh sensitivity is achieved. In orthotopic breast cancer model, the intraoperative tumor-to-normal tissue (T/NT) signal ratio of the nanoprobe is 58.8, about 9 times that of downconversion nanoparticles. The T/NT ratio of residual tumor (<2 mm) remains 12.4, considerably high to distinguish tumor tissue from normal tissue. Besides, multiple-microtumor, 4T1 liver-implanted tumor and lung metastasis models are built to prove that this ultrasensitive nanoprobe is feasible to recognize tumor residues. Notably, PersL imaging takes only 1.5 min, appropriate to be applied for intraoperative imaging. Overall, an ultrasensitive and convenient imaging for recognizing residual tumor tissue is introduced, holding promise for complete surgical removal.

Abstract
Luminescent nanomaterials such as semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) and quantum dots (QDs) attract much attention to optical detectors, LEDs, photovoltaics, displays, biosensing, and bioimaging. These materials include metal chalcogenide QDs and metal halide perovskite NCs. Since the introduction of cadmium chalcogenide QDs to biolabeling and bioimaging, various metal nanoparticles (NPs), atomically precise metal nanoclusters, carbon QDs, graphene QDs, silicon QDs, and other chalcogenide QDs have been infiltrating the nano-bio interface as imaging and therapeutic agents. Nanobioconjugates prepared from luminescent QDs form a new class of imaging probes for cellular and in vivo imaging with single-molecule, super-resolution, and 3D resolutions. Surface modified and bioconjugated core-only and core-shell QDs of metal chalcogenides (MX; M = Cd/Pb/Hg/Ag, and X = S/Se/Te,), binary metal chalcogenides (MInX2; M = Cu/Ag, and X = S/Se/Te), indium compounds (InAs and InP), metal NPs (Ag, Au, and Pt), pure or mixed precision nanoclusters (Ag, Au, Pt), carbon nanomaterials (graphene QDs, graphene nanosheets, carbon NPs, and nanodiamond), silica NPs, silicon QDs, etc. have become prevalent in biosensing, bioimaging, and phototherapy. While heavy metal-based QDs are limited to in vitro bioanalysis or clinical testing due to their potential metal ion-induced toxicity, carbon (nanodiamond and graphene) and silicon QDs, gold and silica nanoparticles, and metal nanoclusters continue their in vivo voyage towards clinical imaging and therapeutic applications. This review summarizes the synthesis, chemical modifications, optical properties, and bioimaging applications of semiconductor QDs with particular references to metal chalcogenide QDs and bimetallic chalcogenide QDs. Also, this review highlights the toxicity and pharmacokinetics of QD bioconjugates.

[PMID: 36071300 PMCID: PMC9989039 DOI: 10.1007/s11307-022-01770-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 08/22/2022] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Individual imaging modalities have certain advantages, but each suffers from drawbacks that other modalities may overcome. The goal of this study was to create a novel contrast agent suitable for various imaging modalities that after a single administration can bridge and strengthen the collaboration between the research fields as well as enrich the information obtained from any one modality. PROCEDURES The contrast agent platform is based on dextran-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (for MRI and MPI) and synthesized using a modified co-precipitation method, followed by a series of conjugation steps with a fluorophore (for fluorescence and photoacoustic imaging), thyroxine (for CT imaging), and chelators for radioisotope labeling (for PET imaging). The fully conjugated agent was then tested in vitro in cell uptake, viability, and phantom studies and in vivo in a model of intraductal injection and in a tumor model. RESULTS The agent was synthesized, characterized, and tested in vitro where it showed the ability to produce a signal on MRI/MPI/FL/PA/CT and PET images. Studies in cells showed the expected concentration-dependent uptake of the agent without noticeable toxicity. In vivo studies demonstrated localization of the agent to the ductal tree in mice after intraductal injection with different degrees of resolution, with CT being the best for this particular application. In a model of injected labeled tumor cells, the agent produced a signal with all modalities and showed persistence in tumor cells confirmed by histology. CONCLUSIONS A fully functional omniparticle contrast agent was synthesized and tested in vitro and in vivo in two animal models. Results shown here point to the generation of a potent signal in all modalities tested without detrimental toxicity. Future use of this agent includes its exploration in various models of human disease including image-guided diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) provides a powerful tool for in vivo structural and functional imaging in deep tissue. However, the lack of biocompatible contrast agents with bright NIR-II emission has hindered its application in fundamental research and clinical trials. Herein, a liposome encapsulation strategy for generating ultrabright liposome-cyanine dyes by restricting dyes in the hydrophobic pockets of lipids and inhibiting the aggregation, as corroborated by computational modeling, is reported. Compared with free indocyanine green (ICG, an US Food and Drug Administration-approved cyanine dye), liposome-encapsulated ICG (S-Lipo-ICG) shows a 38.7-fold increase in NIR-II brightness and enables cerebrovascular imaging at only one-tenth dose over a long period (30 min). By adjusting the excitation wavelength, two liposome-encapsulated cyanine dyes (S-Lipo-ICG and S-Lipo-FD1080) enable NIR-II dual-color imaging. Moreover, small tumor nodules (2-5 mm) can be successfully distinguished and removed with S-Lipo-ICG image-guided tumor surgery in rabbit models. This liposome encapsulation maintains the metabolic pathway of ICG, promising for clinical implementation.

Abstract
In vivo multiplexed bioimaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm), owing to its superiorities of simultaneous multi-channel (multicolor) observations for multiple intrinsic biomarkers, high sensitivity, deeper penetration and high spatiotemporal resolution, and high throughput, has been a growing technology in fundamental medical diagnosis and clinical applications. Among several NIR-II nanoprobes for multiplexed bioimaging, the inorganic nanoprobes based on quantum dots (QDs) and lanthanide downconversion nanoparticles (DCNPs), as well as organic fluorophores based on donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) chromophores, polymethine dyes, and lanthanide complexes are extensively suitable for intravital imaging and diagnosis of disease, exhibiting excellent accomplishments. Here, we summarize recent advances in NIR-II-emitted nanoprobes for intravital multiplexed bioimaging. Furthermore, the current challenges and potential opportunities in designing novel long-wavelength nanoprobes for deep-tissue intravital multiplexed bioimaging are discussed.

Abstract
Glioma is often referred to as one of the most dreadful central nervous system (CNS)-specific tumors with rapidly-proliferating cancerous glial cells, accounting for nearly half of the brain tumors at an annual incidence rate of 30-80 per a million population. Although glioma treatment remains a significant challenge for researchers and clinicians, the rapid development of nanomedicine provides tremendous opportunities for long-term glioma therapy. However, several obstacles impede the development of novel therapeutics, such as the very tight blood-brain barrier (BBB), undesirable hypoxia, and complex tumor microenvironment (TME). Several efforts have been dedicated to exploring various nanoformulations for improving BBB permeation and precise tumor ablation to address these challenges. Initially, this article briefly introduces glioma classification and various pathogenic factors. Further, currently available therapeutic approaches are illustrated in detail, including traditional chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgical practices. Then, different innovative treatment strategies, such as tumor-treating fields, gene therapy, immunotherapy, and phototherapy, are emphasized. In conclusion, we summarize the article with interesting perspectives, providing suggestions for future glioma diagnosis and therapy improvement.

Abstract
Immunotherapy is one of the most promising clinical modalities for the treatment of malignant tumors and has shown excellent therapeutic outcomes in clinical settings. However, it continues to face several challenges, including long treatment cycles, high costs, immune-related adverse events, and low response rates. Thus, it is critical to predict the response rate to immunotherapy by using imaging technology in the preoperative and intraoperative. Here, the latest advances in nanosystem-based biomaterials used for predicting responses to immunotherapy via the imaging of immune cells and signaling molecules in the immune microenvironment are comprehensively summarized. Several imaging methods, such as fluorescence imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography imaging, ultrasound imaging, and photoacoustic imaging, used in immune predictive imaging, are discussed to show the potential of nanosystems for distinguishing immunotherapy responders from nonresponders. Nanosystem-based biomaterials aided by various imaging technologies are expected to enable the effective prediction and diagnosis in cases of tumors, inflammation, and other public diseases.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is an important therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment through direct damage to cancer cells and augmentation of antitumor immune responses. However, the efficacy of radiotherapy is limited by hypoxia-mediated radioresistance and immunosuppression in tumor microenvironment. Here, we construct a stabilized theranostic nanoprobe based on quantum dots emitting in the near-infrared IIb (NIR-IIb, 1,500-1,700 nm) window modified by catalase, arginine-glycine-aspartate peptides and poly(ethylene glycol). We demonstrate that the nanoprobes effectively aggregate in the tumor site to locate the tumor region, thereby realizing precision radiotherapy with few side-effects. In addition, nanoprobes relieve intratumoral hypoxia and reduce the tumor infiltration of immunosuppressive cells. Moreover, the nanoprobes promote the immunogenic cell death of cancer cells to trigger the activation of dendritic cells and enhance T cell-mediated antitumor immunity to inhibit tumor metastasis. Collectively, the nanoprobe-mediated immunogenic radiotherapy can boost the abscopal effect to inhibit tumor metastasis and prolong survival.

Abstract
Among the numerous forms of cancer immunotherapy, cancer vaccines have attracted increasing attention because of their ability to elicit sustained antitumor immune responses and durable tumor regression. Here, a personalized gel-droplet monocyte vaccine (GEMA) derived from host blood was reported. A streamlined microfluidic vaccine production platform was designed to combine the separation of monocytes from host blood and the encapsulation of monocytes in an alginate gel droplet, which simplified the handling of the blood product and permitted the rapid preparation of vaccines. In addition, the application of alginate gel encapsulation not only improved the efficiency of antigen uptake by monocytes, but it also promoted the production of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells in the spleen, resulting in an intense cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response. Moreover, depending on the disease profile of a specific patient, different adjuvant- and antigen-loaded monocytes could be simultaneously encapsulated in gel droplets to prepare a cocktail vaccine based on patient needs. In this study, anti-PD-1 antibodies were encapsulated in gel droplets as a model adjuvant to obtain a cocktail vaccine, and this demonstrated enhanced antitumor efficacy in a 4T1 breast tumor model. In summary, this study provided a unique vaccine production strategy and an efficient combination therapy approach, holding great promise for the development of personalized cancer vaccines.

Abstract
In vivo imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm), which enables us to look deeply into living subjects, is producing marvelous opportunities for biomedical research and clinical applications. Very recently, there has been an upsurge of interdisciplinary studies focusing on developing versatile types of inorganic/organic fluorophores that can be used for noninvasive NIR-IIa/IIb imaging (NIR-IIa, 1300-1400 nm; NIR-IIb, 1500-1700 nm) with near-zero tissue autofluorescence and deeper tissue penetration. This review provides an overview of the reports published to date on the design, properties, molecular imaging, and theranostics of inorganic/organic NIR-IIa/IIb fluorophores. First, we summarize the design concepts of the up-to-date functional NIR-IIa/IIb biomaterials, in the order of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), quantum dots (QDs), rare-earth-doped nanoparticles (RENPs), and organic fluorophores (OFs). Then, these novel imaging modalities and versatile biomedical applications brought by these superior fluorescent properties are reviewed. Finally, challenges and perspectives for future clinical translation, aiming at boosting the clinical application progress of NIR-IIa and NIR-IIb imaging technology are highlighted.

Abstract
In vivo fluorescence imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II) has been considered as a promising technique for visualizing mammals. However, the definition of the NIR-II region and the mechanism accounting for the excellent performance still need to be perfected. Herein, we simulate the photon propagation in the NIR region (to 2340 nm), confirm the positive contribution of moderate light absorption by water in intravital imaging and perfect the NIR-II window as 900-1880 nm, where 1400-1500 and 1700-1880 nm are defined as NIR-IIx and NIR-IIc regions, respectively. Moreover, 2080-2340 nm is newly proposed as the third near-infrared (NIR-III) window, which is believed to provide the best imaging quality. The wide-field fluorescence microscopy in the brain is performed around the NIR-IIx region, with excellent optical sectioning strength and the largest imaging depth of intravital NIR-II fluorescence microscopy to date. We also propose 1400 nm long-pass detection in off-peak NIR-II imaging whose performance exceeds that of NIR-IIb imaging, using bright fluorophores with short emission wavelength.

Abstract
In the light of the success and the expected growth of its arsenal, immuno-therapy may become the standard neoadjuvant procedure for many cancers in the near future. However, aspects such as the identity, organization and the activation status of the peri- and intra-tumoral immune cells would represent important elements to weigh in the decision for the appropriate treatment. While important progress in non-invasive imaging of immune cells has been made over the last decades, it falls yet short of entering the clinics, let alone becoming a standard procedure. Here, we provide an overview of the different intra-vital imaging approaches in the clinics and in pre-clinical settings and discuss their benefits and drawbacks for assessing the activity of the immune system, globally and on a cellular level. Stimulated by further research, the future is likely to see many technological advances both on signal detection and emission as well as image specificity and resolution to tackle current hurdles. We anticipate that the ability to precisely determine an immune stage of cancer will capture the attention of the oncologist and will create a change in paradigm for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Tumor-induced immune suppression mediated by myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and insufficient immunogenicity are two major factors for the poor overall response rate to the immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Here, a tumor microenvironment responsive nanoprodrug (FIT nanoparticles) is presented for co-delivering tadalafil (TAD) and indocyanine green (ICG) photosensitizer to simultaneously targeting intratumor MDSCs and amplifying tumor immunogenicity. The resulting nanoprodrug shows high drug loading (nearly 100%), tumor-specific release, and robust therapeutic efficacy by virtue of promoting immunogenic cell death (ICD) induction and alleviation of MDSCs for augmenting the photothermal immunotherapy. In an in vivo colon tumor model, the released TAD in the tumor can effectively ameliorate MDSCs immunosuppressive activity, while the photosensitizer ICG is capable of inducing ICD to promote sufficient dendritic cells maturation and T cell infiltration. The results reported here may provide a superior candidate of adjuvants for strengthening immune response and ICB efficacy.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging has gathered interest over the recent years for its real-time response and high sensitivity. Developing probes for this modality has proven to be a challenge. Quantum dots (QDs) are colloidal nanoparticles that possess unique optical and electronic properties due to quantum confinement effects, whose excellent optical properties make them ideal for fluorescence imaging of biological systems. By selectively controlling the synthetic methodologies it is possible to obtain QDs that emit in the first (650-950 nm) and second (1000-1400 nm) near infra-red (NIR) windows, allowing for superior imaging properties. Despite the excellent optical properties and biocompatibility shown by some NIR QDs, there are still some challenges to overcome to enable there use in clinical applications. In this review, we discuss the latest advances in the application of NIR QDs in preclinical settings, together with the synthetic approaches and material developments that make NIR QDs promising for future biomedical applications.

Abstract
Probes functioning in the second near-infrared window (1000-1700 nm, NIR-II) exhibit higher resolution and diminished auto-fluorescence compared to those in the traditional NIR region (700-950 nm). Here, we designed and synthesized rare earth ion doped probes with core/shell/shell structures and bright luminescence in the NIR-II region excited at 808 nm. With the doping of Ce3+ ions, the emission intensity of Er3+ at 1530 nm increased 10 times, while the upconversion luminescence decreased to less than 1%. After being modified with polyacrylic acid and polyethylene glycol, the as-obtained water-soluble probe exhibits continuous high-resolution for distinguishing 0.25 mm blood vessels even 10 h after injection. Noteworthily, the imaging of tumors was achieved by injecting the probe, indicating that the designed NIR-II probe has sufficient brightness and the ability to passively target tumor tissue.
