[PMID: 38838563 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 04/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/02/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
Acute liver injury (ALI) is a frequent and devastating liver disease that has been made more prevalent by the excessive use of chemicals, drugs, and alcohol in modern life. Hypochlorous acid (HClO), an important biomarker of oxidative stress originating mainly from the mitochondria, has been shown to be intimately connected to the development and course of ALI. Herein, a novel BODIPY-based NIR ratiometric fluorescent probe Mito-BS was constructed for the specific recognition of mitochondrial HClO. The probe Mito-BS can rapidly respond to HClO within 20 s with a ratiometric fluorescence response (from 680 nm to 645 nm), 24-fold fluorescence intensity ratio enhancement (I645/I680), a wide pH adaptation range (5-9) and the low detection limit (31 nM). The probe Mito-BS has been effectively applied to visualize endogenous and exogenous HClO fluctuations in living zebrafish and cells based on its low cytotoxicity and prominent mitochondria-targeting ability. Furthermore, the fluorescent probe Mito-BS makes it possible to achieve the non-invasive in-situ diagnosis of ALI through in mice, and provides a feasible strategy for early diagnosis and drug therapy of ALI and its complications.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), as one of reactive oxygen species (ROS) widely present in the human body, is involved in a variety of physiological activities. Many human diseases are associated with abnormal levels of H2O2 in the body. Mitochondria are the main organelles producing H2O2 in the human body, and monitoring the level of H2O2 in mitochondria can help to deepen the understanding of the detailed functions of H2O2 in physiological activities. However, due to the highly dynamic nature of the cells, real-time quantitative monitoring of H2O2 levels in mitochondria remains an ongoing challenge. Herein, a novel highly immobilized mitochondria-targeting fluorescent probe (QHCl) for detection of H2O2 was reasonably constructed based on quinolinium dye containing benzyl chloride moiety. Spectral experimental results demonstrated QHCl possessed outstanding selectivity toward H2O2 (λex/em = 380/513 nm). In addition, QHCl can quantitatively detect H2O2 in the concentration range of 0-20 μM with excellent sensitivity (LOD = 0.58 μM) under the PBS buffer solution (10 mM, pH = 7.4). Finally, bioimaging experiments demonstrated that the probe QHCl was able to be used for accurately detecting both endogenous and exogenous H2O2 in the mitochondria of living cells and zebrafish by its unique mitochondrial immobilization.

Abstract
Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) molecules, which feature large Stokes shifts to avoid self-absorption, play an essential role in photoluminescent bioimaging probes. Herein, we report the development of an ESIPT molecule 3-(3-hydroxypyridin-2-yl)isoquinolin-4-ol (PiQ). PiQ not only undergoes a distinct ESIPT process unlike the symmetrical 2,2'-bipyridyl-3,3'-diol but also exhibits aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics. PiQ self-assembles into aggregates with an average size of 241.0±51.9 nm in aqueous solutions, leading to significantly enhanced photoluminescence. On the basis of the ESIPT and AIE characteristics of PiQ, the latter is functionalized with a hydrogen peroxide-responsive 4-pinacoratoborylbenzyl group (B) and a carboxylesterase-responsive acetyl group (A) to produce a photoluminescent probe B-PiQ-A. The potential of PiQ for applications in bioimaging and chemical sensing is underscored by its efficient detection of both endogenous and exogenous hydrogen peroxide in living cells.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) overexpressed in mitochondria has been regarded as a key biomarker in the pathological processes of various diseases. However, there is currently a lack of suitable mitochondria-targetable near-infrared (NIR) probes for the visualization of H2O2 in multiple diseases, such as PM2.5 exposure-induced lung injury, hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI), nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL), hepatic fibrosis (HF), and malignant tumor tissues containing clinical cancer patient samples. Herein, we conceived a novel NIR fluorescent probe (HCy-H2O2) by introducing pentafluorobenzenesulfonyl as a H2O2 sensing unit into the NIR hemicyanine platform. HCy-H2O2 exhibits good sensitivity and selectivity toward H2O2, accompanied by a remarkable "turn-on" fluorescence signal at 720 nm. Meanwhile, HCy-H2O2 has stable mitochondria-targetable ability and permits monitoring of the up-generated H2O2 level during mitophagy. Furthermore, using HCy-H2O2, we have successfully observed an overproduced mitochondrial H2O2 in ambient PM2.5 exposure-induced lung injury, HIRI, NAFL, and HF models through NIR fluorescence imaging. Significantly, the visualization of H2O2 has been achieved in both tumor-bear mice as well as surgical specimens of cancer patients, making HCy-H2O2 a promising tool for cancer diagnosis and imaging-guided surgery.

Abstract
Early treatment significantly improves the survival rate of liver cancer patients, so the development of early diagnostic methods for liver cancer is urgent. Liver cancer can develop from viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver, and fatty liver, thus making the above diseases share common features such as elevated viscosity, reactive oxygen species, and reactive nitrogen species. Therefore, accurate differentiation between other liver diseases and liver cancer is both a paramount practical need and challenging. Numerous fluorescent probes have been reported for the diagnosis of liver cancer by detecting a single biomarker, but these probes lack specificity for liver cancer in complex biological systems. Obviously, using multiple liver cancer biomarkers as the basis for judgment can dramatically improve diagnostic accuracy. Herein, we report the first fluorescent probe, LD-TCE, that sequentially detects carboxylesterase (CE) and lipid droplet polarity in liver cancer cells with high sensitivity and selectivity, with linear detection of CE in the range of 0-6 U/mL and a 65-fold fluorescence enhancement in response to polarity. The probe first reacts with CE and releases weak fluorescence, which is then dramatically enhanced due to the decrease in lipid droplet polarity in liver cancer cells. This approach allows the probe to enable specific imaging of liver cancer with higher contrast and accuracy. The probe successfully achieved the screening of liver cancer cells and the precise identification of liver cancer in mice. More importantly, it is not disturbed by liver fibrosis, which is a common pathological feature of many liver diseases. We believe that the LD-TCE is expected to be a powerful tool for early diagnosis of liver cancer.

Abstract
Keloid is a type of scar formed by the overexpression of extracellular matrix substances from fibroblasts following inflammation after trauma. The existing keloid treatment methods include drug injection, surgical intervention, light exposure, cryotherapy, etc. However, these methods have limitations such as recurrence, low treatment efficacy, and side effects. Consequently, studies are being conducted on the treatment of keloids from the perspective of inflammatory mechanisms. In this study, keloid models are created to understand inflammatory mechanisms and explore treatment methods to address them. While previous studies have used animal models with gene mutations, chemical treatments, and keloid tissue transplantation, there are limitations in fully reproducing the characteristics of keloids unique to humans, and ethical issues related to animal welfare pose additional challenges. Consequently, studies are underway to create in vitro artificial skin models to simulate keloid disease and apply them to the development of treatments for skin diseases. In particular, herein, scaffold technologies that implement three-dimensional (3D) full-thickness keloid models are introduced to enhance mechanical properties as well as biological properties of tissues, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and cellular interactions. It is anticipated that applying these technologies to the production of artificial skin for keloid simulation could contribute to the development of inflammatory keloid treatment techniques in the future.

Abstract
Excessive peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is closely related to the occurrence and progression of inflammation. Therefore, the development of an efficacious ONOO- activatable probe holds great potential for the early diagnosis of pathological inflammation, and the direct evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy of active protectants. In this work, a new ONOO--activated fluorescent probe (SZP) which greatly improved the specificity and sensitivity (LOD = 8.03 nM) with large Stokes shift (150 nm) through introducing two reaction triggers (diphenyl phosphinate moiety, CC unsaturated bond) was rationally designed for rapid detecting ONOO- (within 2 min). The excellent properties of probe SZP enable it to realize the fluorescence-guided diagnosis of inflammation. More importantly, probe SZP has also been utilized to assess the anti-inflammatory efficacy of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) active ingredients for the remediation of inflammation by monitoring ONOO- fluctuation for the first time.

Abstract
The wide use of mono- or bis-styryl fluorophores in biomedical applications prompted the presented design and study of a series of trimeric and tetrameric homo-analogues, styryl moieties arranged around a central aromatic core. The interactions with the most common biorelevant targets, ds-DNA and ds-RNA, were studied by a set of spectrophotometric methods (UV-VIS, fluorescence, circular dichroism, thermal denaturation). All studied dyes showed strong light absorption in the 350-420 nm range and strongly Stokes-shifted (+100-160 nm) emission with quantum yields (Φf) up to 0.57, whereby the mentioned properties were finely tuned by the type of the terminal cationic substituent and number of styryl components (tetramers being red-shifted in respect to trimers). All studied dyes strongly interacted with ds-DNA and ds-RNA with 1-10 nM-1 affinity, with dye emission being strongly quenched. The tetrameric analogues did not show any particular selectivity between ds-DNA or ds-RNA due to large size and consequent partial, non-selective insertion into DNA/RNA grooves. However, smaller trimeric styryl series showed size-dependent selective stabilization of ds-DNA vs. ds-RNA against thermal denaturation and highly selective or even specific recognition of several particular ds-DNA or ds-RNA structures by induced circular dichroism (ICD) bands. The chiral (ICD) selectivity was controlled by the size of a terminal cationic substituent. All dyes entered efficiently live human cells with negligible cytotoxic activity. Further prospects in the transfer of ICD-based selectivity into fluorescence-chiral methods (FDCD and CPL) is proposed, along with the development of new analogues with red-shifted absorbance properties.

[PMID: 38791285 PMCID: PMC11121733 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25105242] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been found to have the characteristics of their parent cells. Based on the characteristics of these EVs, various studies on disease treatment using mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived EVs with regenerative activity have been actively conducted. The therapeutic nature of MSC-derived EVs has been shown in several studies, but in recent years, there have been many efforts to functionalize EVs to give them more potent therapeutic effects. Strategies for functionalizing EVs include endogenous and exogenous methods. In this study, human umbilical cord MSC (UCMSC)-derived EVs were selected for optimum OA treatments with expectation via bioinformatics analysis based on antibody array. And we created a novel nanovesicle system called the IGF-si-EV, which has the properties of both cartilage regeneration and long-term retention in the lesion site, attaching positively charged insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) to the surface of the UCMSC-derived Evs carrying siRNA, which inhibits MMP13. The downregulation of inflammation-related cytokine (MMP13, NF-kB, and IL-6) and the upregulation of cartilage-regeneration-related factors (Col2, Acan) were achieved with IGF-si-EV. Moreover, the ability of IGF-si-EV to remain in the lesion site for a long time has been proven through an ex vivo system. Collectively, the final constructed IGF-si-EV can be proposed as an effective OA treatment through its successful MMP13 inhibition, chondroprotective effect, and cartilage adhesion ability. We also believe that this EV-based nanoparticle-manufacturing technology can be applied as a platform technology for various diseases.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) diagnosis is still the diagnosis of exclusion. Differentiating from other forms of interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) is essential, given the various therapeutic approaches. The IPF course is now unpredictable for individual patients, although some genetic factors and several biomarkers have already been associated with various IPF prognoses. Since its early stages, IPF may be asymptomatic, leading to a delayed diagnosis. The present review critically examines the recent literature on molecular biomarkers potentially useful in IPF diagnostics. The examined biomarkers are grouped into breath and sputum biomarkers, serologically assessed extracellular matrix neoepitope markers, and oxidative stress biomarkers in lung tissue. Fibroblasts and complete blood count have also gained recent interest in that respect. Although several biomarker candidates have been profiled, there has yet to be a single biomarker that proved specific to the IPF disease. Nevertheless, various IPF biomarkers have been used in preclinical and clinical trials to verify their predictive and monitoring potential.

Abstract
The deposition of the extracellular matrix, especially collagen, and the elevated expression levels of reactive oxygen species, including H2O2, are the main features of fibrosis. Fibrosis can occur in many tissues, such as tumor and liver tissues. The deposition of collagen in the location of lesions not only leads to immunological rejection and supports liver fibrosis and tumor progression, but also provides unique physiological signals with the progression of fibrosis and tumor. However, at present, the detection of fibrosis, especially real time detection, is greatly difficult, making it important to develop noninvasive probes for the dynamic monitoring of fibrosis progression. Herein, we propose a H2O2 responsive macromolecular probe for collagen imaging with high sensitivity and specificity. This probe consists of a collagen-targeting peptide and a H2O2-sensitive and near-infrared (NIR)-emitting macromolecular optical probe, which could effectively bind to collagen both in vitro and in vivo in the region of tumor or fibrotic liver tissues, allowing for high sensitivity and noninvasive visualization of fibrotic tissues and real time monitoring of collagen degradation after anti-fibrotic drug treatment.

Abstract
The ability to gain spatiotemporal information, and in some cases achieve spatiotemporal control, in the context of drug delivery makes theranostic fluorescent probes an attractive and intensely investigated research topic. This interest is reflected in the steep rise in publications on the topic that have appeared over the past decade. Theranostic fluorescent probes, in their various incarnations, generally comprise a fluorophore linked to a masked drug, in which the drug is released as the result of certain stimuli, with both intrinsic and extrinsic stimuli being reported. This release is then signaled by the emergence of a fluorescent signal. Importantly, the use of appropriate fluorophores has enabled not only this emerging fluorescence as a spatiotemporal marker for drug delivery but also has provided modalities useful in photodynamic, photothermal, and sonodynamic therapeutic applications. In this review we highlight recent work on theranostic fluorescent probes with a particular focus on probes that are activated in tumor microenvironments. We also summarize efforts to develop probes for other applications, such as neurodegenerative diseases and antibacterials. This review celebrates the diversity of designs reported to date, from discrete small-molecule systems to nanomaterials. Our aim is to provide insights into the potential clinical impact of this still-emerging research direction.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a significant member of reactive oxygen species, plays a crucial role in oxidative stress and cell signaling. Abnormal levels of H2O2 in the body can induce damage or even impair body function, leading to the development of certain diseases. Therefore, real-time monitoring of H2O2 in living cells is very important. In this work, the aggregation-induced emission fluorescence probe 2-(2-((4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl) benzyl) oxy) phenyl) imidazo [1,2-a] pyridine (B2) was designed and synthesized, which enables the long-term tracing of H2O2 in living cells. The addition of H2O2 to probe B2 results in a dramatic fluorescence enhancement around 500 nm. Notably, B2 can visualize both exogenous and endogenous H2O2 in living cells. The synthesis method for B2 is simple, has a high yield, and utilizes readily available materials. It exhibits advantages such as low toxicity, photostability, and good biocompatibility. Consequently, the developed fluorescent probe in this study has great potential as a reliable tool for determining H2O2 in living cells.

Abstract
Cancer represents a global threat to human health, and effective strategies for improved cancer early diagnosis and treatment are urgently needed. The detection of tumor biomarkers has been one of the important auxiliary means for tumor screening and diagnosis. Mitochondria are crucial subcellular organelles that produce most chemical energy used by cells, control metabolic processes, and maintain cell function. Evidence suggests the close involvement of mitochondria with cancer development. As a consequence, the identification of cancer-associated biomarker expression levels in mitochondria holds significant importance in the diagnosis of early-stage diseases and the monitoring of therapy efficacy. Small-molecule fluorescent probes are effective for the identification and visualization of bioactive entities within biological systems, owing to their heightened sensitivity, expeditious non-invasive analysis and real-time detection capacities. The design principles and sensing mechanisms of mitochondrial targeted fluorescent probes are summarized in this review. Additionally, the biomedical applications of these probes for detecting cancer-associated biomarkers are highlighted. The limitations and challenges of fluorescent probes in vivo are also considered and some future perspectives are provided. This review is expected to provide valuable insights for the future development of novel fluorescent probes for clinical imaging, thereby contributing to the advancement of cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), a chemically defined group of reactive molecules derived from molecular oxygen, are involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, including immune defense, cellular metabolism, and other physiological processes. To access their detailed function in these processes, it is critical to establish rapid, accurate and in situ assays for these species in vivo. Among the potential assays, fluorescent probes are considered as the most promising candidate to monitor the biological ROS in vivo with great spatial and temporal resolution and are extensively used as an excellent tool in modern redox biology discovery. Recently, abundant fluorescent probes have been successively developed for in vitro or intracellular detection of ROS, but most of them could not be used for in vivo imaging due to their intrinsic shortcomings such as short emission wavelengths, phototoxicity and poor tissue penetration. Recent development of fluorescent ROS probes with near-infrared emission aim to address these concerns to develop practical assays. Herein, we review recent developments of ROS-sensitive near-infrared fluorescent probes, with an emphasis on the design, synthesis, characteristics of fluorescent probes, as well as their applications. We hope this review will aid the development of a new generation of efficient, sensitive and biocompatible fluorescent probes for in vivo ROS detection.

Abstract
The pHrodo with an "off-on" response to the changes of pH has been widely used as a fluorescent pH probe for bioimaging. The fluorescence off-on mechanism is fundamentally important for its application and further development. Herein, the sensing mechanism, especially the relevant excited-state dynamics, of pHrodo is investigated by steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy as well as quantum chemical calculations, showing that pHrodo is best understood using the bichromophore model. Its first excited state (S1) is a charge transfer state between two chromophores. From S1, pHrodo relaxes to its ground state (S0) via an ultrafast nonradiative process (∼0.5 ps), which causes its fluorescence to be "off". After protonation, S1 becomes a localized excited state, which accounts for the fluorescence being turned "on". Our work provides photophysical insight into the sensing mechanism of pHrodo and indicates the bichromophore model might be relevant to a wide range of fluorescent probes.

[PMID: 37257969 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2023.341338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
Nowadays, more and more studies have linked the abnormal expression of active molecules in organelles with the occurrence of diseases, so there is an urgent need to develop tools for detecting active molecules in specific organelles. However, the recognition receptors of most organelle-targeting probes currently developed always remain active, which easily causes them to react with the analyte in the cytoplasm, thus misjudging the role of the analyte in the physiological and pathological processes. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new strategy for the design of probes capable of high-fidelity imaging of the analyte in specific organelles. Herein, we propose a new strategy that the activation of recognition receptors that can be triggered by the microenvironment of targeting organelles. Based on this strategy, we develop a novel lysosome-targeting fluorescent probe (Lyso-SO2) for imaging of sulfur dioxide (SO2) with high-fidelity in lysosomes. The inert probe is activated by the acidic environment in the lysosome and then responds quickly (<2 s) and sensitively (LOD = 0.34 μM) to SO2. This paradigm by taking full advantage of the features of the organelle microenvironment provides a promising methodology for developing organelle-targeting probes for high-fidelity imaging.

Bioimaging and detecting endogenous and exogenous cyanide in foods, living cells and mice based on a turn-on mitochondria-targeted fluorescent probe. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 301:122957.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent probe, with advanced features including "turn-on" fluorescence response, high sensitivity, good compatibility, and mitochondria-targeting function, has been synthesized based on structural design for detecting and visualizing cyanide in foods and biological systems. An electron-donating triphenylamine group (TPA) was employed as the fluorescent and an electron-accepting 4-methyl-N-methyl-pyridinium iodide (Py) moiety was used as a mitochondria-targeted localization unit, which formed intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) system. The "turn-on" fluorescence response of the probe (TPA-BTD-Py, TBP) toward cyanide is attributed two reasons, one is the insertion of an electron-deficient benzothiadiazole (BTD) group into the conjugated system between TPA and Py, and the other is the inhibition of ICT induced by the nucleophilic addition of CN-. Two active sites for reacting with CN- were involved in TBP molecule and high response sensitivity were observed in tetrahydrofuran solvent containing 3 % H2O. The response time could be reduced to 150 s, the linear range was 0.25-50 μM, and the limit of detection was 0.046 μM for CN- analysis. The TBP probe was successfully applied to the detection of cyanide in food samples prepared in aqueous solution, including the sprouting potato, bitter almond, cassava, and apple seeds. Furthermore, TBP exhibited low cytotoxicity, clear mitochondria-localizing capability in HeLa cells and excellent fluorescence imaging of exogenous and endogenous CN- in living PC12 cells. Moreover, exogenous CN- with intraperitoneal injection in nude mice could be well monitored visually by the "turn-on" fluorescence. Therefore, the strategy based on structural design provided good prospects for optimizing fluorescent probes.

Abstract
Nowadays, the selective release of therapeutic drugs into tumor cells has become an important way of tumor treatment due to the high side effects of chemotherapy drugs. As one of the gas mediators, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is closely related to cancer. Due to the high content of H2S in tumor cells, it can be used as a signaling molecule that triggers the release of drugs to achieve the selective release of therapeutic drugs. In addition, dual-channel fluorescence imaging technology can be better applied to monitor the drug delivery process and distinguish the state before and after drug release, so as to better track the effect of drug therapy. Based on this, we used NBD amines (NBD-NHR) as the recognition group of H2S and connected the tyrosine kinase inhibitor crizotinib to construct an activated dual-channel fluorescent probe CZ-NBD. After the probe enters the tumor cells, it consumes H2S and releases crizotinib, which is highly toxic to the tumor cells. Importantly, the probe displays significant fluorescence changes in different cells, enabling not only the screening of tumor cells, but also tracking and monitoring drug release and tumor cell activity. Therefore, the construction of probe CZ-NBD provides a new strategy for drug release monitoring in tumor cells.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is closely related to the crop health status under stress conditions. H2O2 is an important signaling molecule in plants under stress. Therefore, monitoring H2O2 fluctuations is of great significance when risk-assessing oxidative stress. However, few fluorescent probes have been reported for the in situ tracking of H2O2 fluctuations in crops. Herein, we designed a "turn-on" NIR fluorescent probe (DRP-B) to detect and in situ-image H2O2 in living cells and crops. DRP-B exhibited good detection performance for H2O2 and could image endogenous H2O2 in living cells. More importantly, it could semi-quantitatively visualize H2O2 in cabbage roots under abiotic stress. Visualization of H2O2 in cabbage roots revealed H2O2 upregulation in response to adverse environments (metals, flood, and drought). This study provides a new method for risk-assessing oxidative stress in plants under abiotic stress and is expected to provide guidance for the development of new antioxidant defense strategies to enhance plant resistance and crop productivity.

Abstract
ATP and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are considered significant indicators of cell apoptosis. However, visualizing the interplay between apoptosis-related ATP and ROS is challenging. Herein, we developed a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanoprobe for an apoptosis assay using duplex imaging of cellular ATP and ROS. The nanoprobe was fabricated through controlled encapsulation of gold nanorods with a thin zirconium-based MOF layer, followed by modification of the ROS-responsive molecules 2-mercaptohydroquinone and 6-carboxyfluorescein-labeled ATP aptamer. The nanoprobe enables ATP and ROS visualization via fluorescence and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, respectively, avoiding the mutual interference that often occurs in single-mode methods. Moreover, the dual-modal assay effectively showed dynamic imaging of ATP and ROS in cancer cells treated with various drugs, revealing their apoptosis-related pathways and interactions that differ from those under normal conditions. This study provides a method for studying the relationship between energy metabolism and redox homeostasis in cell apoptosis processes.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic inflammatory disease destroying lungs irreversibly with high mortality rates. There are challenges in diagnosing IPF and treating it at an early stage. Mounting evidence suggests that hypochlorous acid (HClO) can help in diagnosing inflammation and relevant conditions. Pulmonary fibrosis is linked to the mitochondrial oxidative stress where excessive HClO production is a key molecular mechanism. Measuring mitochondrial HClO levels assists in the investigations of how the mitochondrial oxidative stress affects IPF. Herein, NIR-PTZ-HClO was developed and optimized as a probe for detecting fluctuations in HClO concentrations of cells and mice models through near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence. The probe featured large Stokes shift of 150 nm, NIR turn-on signal at 650 nm, high sensitivity (45-fold) and quick HClO detection (2 s). The probe is selective for HClO in the presence of range of other analytes. NIR-PTZ-HClO visualized both endogenous and exogenous HClO in living cells (RAW264.7, H460 and A549). The probe monitored HClO in mice models with IPF and moreover the HClO profile could be tracked during the IPF process. The probe also detected precipitous decrease in HClO levels in IPF mice treated with OFEV. NIR-PTZ-HClO probe has thus the potential for earlier diagnosis of lung fibrosis, thereby improving the treatment efficacy.

Abstract
The concentration of copper ions (Cu2+) in the environment is closely related to water quality, food, and biological health. As an indispensable metal element for the human body, its content is closely related to many diseases. However, the current detection methods for Cu2+ have some limitations, such as complicated operations and unfavorable on-site analysis. Therefore, this work constructs a novel ratiometric fluorescent probe (QLP), which has the advantages of rapid response, good anti-interference ability and high sensitivity. It has been successfully used for the detection of Cu2+ in water samples, soil, and food. In addition, low cytotoxicity and strong tissue penetration make it suitable for the detection of Cu2+ in living cells and zebrafish, offering a chemical tool for exploring the physiological and pathological processes related to Cu2+. It is important to use probe QLP and portable UV lamp to create an easy-to-operate Cu2+ detection platform, which can quickly detect Cu2+ on-site by combining with a smartphone. This work not only provides a detection tool for on-site analysis of Cu2+, but also provides a reference strategy for the development of on-site detection methods for other environmental pollutants.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) have been known to possess the features of the origin cell with nano size and have shown therapeutic potentials for regenerative medicine in recent studies as alternatives for cell-based therapies. However, extremely low production yield, unknown effects derived from serum impurities, and relatively low bioactivities on doses must be overcome for translational applications. As several reports have demonstrated the tunability of secretion and bioactivities of EVs, herein, we introduced three-dimensional (3D) culture and cell priming approaches for MSCs in serum-free chemically defined media to exclude side effects from serum-derived impurities. Aggregates (spheroids) with 3D culture dramatically enhanced secretion of EVs about 6.7 times more than cells with two-dimensional (2D) culture, and altered surface compositions. Further modulation with cell priming with the combination of TNF-α and IFN-γ (TI) facilitated the production of EVs about 1.4 times more than cells without priming (9.4 times more than cells with 2D culture without priming), and bioactivities of EVs related to tissue regenerations. Interestingly, unlike changing 2D to 3D culture, TI priming altered internal cytokines of MSC-derived EVs. Through simulating characteristics of EVs with bioinformatics analysis, the regeneration-relative properties such as angiogenesis, wound healing, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, and anti-fibrosis, for three different types of EVs were comparatively analyzed using cell-based assays. The present study demonstrated that a combinatory strategy, 3D cultures and priming MSCs in chemically defined media, provided the optimum environments to maximize secretion and regeneration-related bioactivities of MSC-derived EVs without impurities for future translational applications.

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
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) as an active substance, is produced during normal physiological process, which plays an important role in maintaining cell REDOX balance and cell function. Moreover, the peroxynitrite is involved in many diseases and especially can be used as a biomarker of drug-induced liver injury (DILI). Therefore, in this work, we synthesized a fluorescent probe JQ-3 for detecting ONOO-. The results showed the probe JQ-3 possessed excellent selectivity, fast response time (10 min) and low detection limit (32 nM). The probe JQ-3 is almost unaffected by pH, showing the potential application in biological systems. Moreover, the probe JQ-3 can be successfully used for the detection of exogenous and endogenous ONOO- in living cells and zebrafish. At the same time, the DILI was successfully recognized by visualizing ONOO- with JQ-3 in living cells and zebrafish. Therefore, the probe JQ-3 provides a potential tool for detecting ONOO- to understand physiological and pathology processes of disease.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important molecule in biological and environmental systems. In living systems, H2O2 plays essential functions in physical signaling pathways, cell growth, differentiation, and proliferation. Plasmonic nanostructures have attracted significant research attention in the fields of catalysis, imaging, and sensing applications because of their unique properties. Owing to the difference in the reduction potential, silver nanostructures have been proposed for the detection of H2O2. In this work, we demonstrate the Au@Ag nanocubes for the label- and enzyme-free detection of H2O2. Seed-mediated synthesis method was employed to realize the Au@Ag nanocubes with high uniformity. The Au@Ag nanocubes were demonstrated to exhibit the ability to monitor the H2O2 at concentration levels lower than 200 µM with r2 = 0.904 of the calibration curve and the limit of detection (LOD) of 1.11 µM. In the relatively narrow range of the H2O2 at concentration levels lower than 40 µM, the LOD was calculated to be 0.60 µM with r2 = 0.941 of the calibration curve of the H2O2 sensor. This facile fabrication strategy of the Au@Ag nanocubes would provide inspiring insights for the label- and enzyme-free detection of H2O2.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite (ONOO−), a highly reactive nitrogen species, which plays a crucial role in numerous physiological and pathological processes of cell functionalization. The anomalous concentration of ONOO− may result in a range of diseases, such as arthritis, neurological disorders, and even cancer. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a simple and effective tool to monitor the fluctuation of ONOO− levels in biological systems. Herein, an ultrafast fluorescent probe (HND-ONOO) is proposed to detect ONOO−, which displays brilliant fluorescence in less than 30 s with a large Stokes shift. Furthermore, the probe exhibited the lower detection limit (48 nM) and satisfactory results in differentiating ONOO− from other related species. The probe that possesses good biocompatibility and low toxicity was employed to monitor the level of exogenous and endogenous ONOO− in living cells. Thus, the probe HND-ONOO could be served as a potential imaging tool to visualize intracellular ONOO− and understand the relationship between ONOO− and inflammation.

Abstract
Diagnosis of diabetic cataract (DC) in the early stage is of great significance for drug intervention and surgery circumvention for DC patients. However, the lack of reliable imaging tools greatly limits the diagnosis of early DC. In this context, a fluorescent probe BBPy for hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is presented based on the oxidation of phenothiazine. The probe displays apparent emission enhancement at 562 nm toward HOCl with high selectivity, superb sensitivity (detection limit: 12.6 nM), and rapid response (within seconds). Using the probe, the HOCl generation in diabetic human lens epithelial cells was monitored, as well as the HOCl down-regulation during antioxidant treatment. Therefore, it is proposed that HOCl can be a promising biomarker for DC and fluorescence imaging technique can be regarded as a candidate tool for DC diagnosis.

Abstract
Edible crops are important in terms of food security and sustainable agriculture. Heavy-metal-ion contamination of water/soil has deleterious impacts on the growth of edible crops. Among the heavy metals, cadmium (Cd) is toxic to plants, people, and animals, as it is widely used in industry; it has become the most important metal ion in the soil/water pollution. Once the toxic Cd ion enters edible crops via the water/soil in which the crops grow, it will induce oxidative stress (overproduction of reactive oxygen species with H2O2 being the most abundant) in the crops, and strong oxidative stress leads to the crops' growth depression or inhibition. Hence, it is of great significance to accurately monitor the oxidative stress induced by Cd ions in edible crops, as the monitoring results could be employed for the early warning of Cd-ion pollution in water/soil. Herein, we design an activatable nanoprobe that can detect Cd-ion-induced oxidative stress in edible crops via near-infrared second-window (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging. The molecular probe IXD-B contains the diphenylamine-modified xanthene group acting as the electron-donating unit, bis(methylenemalononitrile)indan as the electron-accepting unit, and the methenephenylboronic acid group as the recognition moiety for H2O2 and the fluorescence quencher. The probe molecules being encapsulated by the amphiphilic DSPE-PEG2000 render the water-dispersible nanoprobe (IXD-B@DSPE-PEG2000). When the nanoprobe enters the edible crops, it can be activated by the overexpressed H2O2 therein and consequently emit strong NIR-II fluorescence signals for visualizing and tracking the oxidative stress in edible crops induced by Cd ions.

Abstract
Nickel resources are abundant in the world, and the application of nickel in production and life is more and more extensive. However, excessive nickel entering the environment will not only cause environmental pollution but also seriously endanger plants, animals and human health. Nickel compounds are carcinogenic and have been classified as a class 1 carcinogen. Nickel mainly exists in the form of divalent ions in the environment. However, there are few simple and effective methods for the detection of nickel ions, and these methods still have certain limitations. At present, the mechanisms of nickel influence in organisms are also unclear. Therefore, we constructed a ratiometric fluorescent probe Ra-Ni, which can achieve its own self-calibration and avoid the interference of other factors, thereby realizing the specific identification of nickel ions. The probe can detect nickel ions sensitively with a detection limit as low as 26.2 nM and can respond in a short time (< 2 min), which proves the great potential of the probe in the detection of nickel ions. At the same time, Ra-Ni has also been successfully used for imaging nickel ions in living cells and zebrafish, providing an effective tool for the study of physiological and pathological processes. The detection effect of nickel ions in actual water sample is also satisfactory, which further demonstrates the practicability of Ra-Ni in environmental applications.

Abstract
As a vital biomolecule, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is involved in many physiological and pathological processes. Therefore, it is important to detect H2O2 in vivo conveniently and efficiently. In this paper, we report a new method of nucleophilic addition of H2O2 to the acetyl group to promote the rapid intramolecular reaction, which can be used to develop an efficient H2O2 probe. Based on this unique auxiliary recognition part, a fluorescent probe for H2O2 detection was designed and synthesized. This probe has the advantages of high sensitivity (limits of detection 7.0 × 10-8 M or even lower.), fast response (within 3 min) and large Stokes shift (225 nm), which not only can monitor exogenous and endogenous H2O2 in cells but also successfully achieves the change of endogenous H2O2 level caused by drug sexual organ injury in zebrafish.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since the outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in over 313,000,000 confirmed cases of infection and over 5,500,000 deaths, substantial research work has been conducted to discover agents/ vaccines against COVID-19. Undesired adverse effects were observed in clinical practice and common vaccines do not protect the nasal tissue. An increasing volume of direct evidence based on clinical studies of traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) in the treatment of COVID-19 has been reported. However, the safe anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic proprietary Chinese medicines nasal spray, designated as Allergic Rhinitis Nose Drops (ARND), and its potential of re-purposing for suppressing viral infection via SARS-CoV-2 RBD (Delta)- angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) binding have not been elucidated. PURPOSE To characterize ARND as a potential SARS-CoV-2 entry inhibitor for its possible preventive application in anti-virus hygienic agent. METHODS Network pharmacology analysis of ARND was adopted to asacertain gene targets which were commonly affected by COVID-19. The inhibitory effect of ARND on viral infection was determined by an in vitro pseudovirus assay. Furthermore, ARND was confirmed to have a strong binding affinity with ACE2 and SARS-CoV-2 spike-RBD (Delta) by ELISA. Finally, inflammatory and fibrotic cell models were used in conjunction in this study. RESULTS The results suggested ARND not only inhibited pseudovirus infection and undermined the binding affinity between ACE2 and the Spike protein (Delta), but also attenuated the inflammatory response upon infection and may lead to a better prognosis with a lower risk of pulmonary fibrosis. The data in this study also provide a basis for further development of ARND as an antiviral hygienic product and further investigations on ARND in the live virus, in vivo and COVID-19 patients. ARND holds promise for use in the current COVID-19 outbreak as well as in future pandemics. CONCLUSION ARND could be considered as a safe anti-SARS-CoV-2 agent with potential to prevent SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in living activities as signaling molecules that regulate the living activities of organisms. There are many types of ROS, mainly including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hypochlorous acid (HOCl), hydroxyl radical (•OH), peroxyl radical (ROO•), singlet oxygen (1O2), peroxynitrite (ONOO-) and superoxide anion radical (O2-•) etc. Existing studies have shown that changes in ROS levels are closely associated with the development of many diseases, such as inflammation, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative damage. Small molecule fluorescent probes have been widely used in biology, pathology and medical diagnosis due to their advantages of noninvasive, high sensitivity and in vivo real-time detection. It is extremely important to better apply small-molecule fluorescent probes to detect ROS levels in organisms to achieve early diagnosis of diseases and assessment of therapeutic conditions. This work focuses on summarizing the representative applications of some fluorescent probes in ROS disease models in recent years. This article focuses on summarizing the construction methods of various ROS-related disease models, and classifying and analyzing the basic ideas and methods of fluorescent probes applied to disease models according to the characteristics of various diseases.

Abstract
A facile and ingenious method to chemical etching-coordinating a metal-organic framework (MOF) followed by an annealing treatment was proposed to prepare Co3O4 nanoparticles uniformly dispersed in rational porous carbon nano-boxes (Co3O4@CNBs), which was further used to detect H2O2 released from living cells. The Co3O4@CNBs H2O2 sensor delivers much higher sensitivity than non-etching/coordinating Co3O4, offering a limit of detection of 2.32 nM. The wide working range covers 10 nM-359 μM H2O2, while possessing good selectivity and excellent reproducibility. Moreover, this biosensor was used to successfully real-time detect H2O2 released from living cells, including both healthy and tumor cells. The excellent performance holds great promise for Co3O4@CNBs’s applications in electrochemical biomimetic sensing, particularly real-time monitor H2O2 released from living cells.

Abstract
AbstractReactive oxygen species (ROS), a class of reactive oxidants, play critical roles in signal transduction, cell metabolism, immune defense, and other physiological processes. Abnormally excessive levels of ROS can cause diseases and thus, investigations into the relevant biology and medicine are significant. The behavior of ROS in inflammation has been rarely elucidated. In this work, two ROS fluorescent probes, FS-ROS1 and FS-ROS2 have been designed and synthesized. FS-ROS1 responds rapidly (~1 min) to ClO– and gradually (~30 min) to H2O2 with an increase in fluorescence at ~656 nm and 640 nm of more than 100-fold in vitro. At a concentration of 10 μM, FS-ROS1 labels the L929 cell and Raw264.7 cell wells in 30 min with excellent biocompatibility and without washing. After labelling, FS-ROS1 exhibited a rational fluorescence increase upon the addition of 1, 10, 100, and 200 μM of H2O2. Based on these results, inflammatory cells, stimulated with 800 nM dexamethasone and polyIC, showed a higher increase in fluorescence than the control cells. These results suggest that H2O2 and ClO– might be important signaling molecules during inflammations.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive, and fatal interstitial pneumonia with unknown pathogenesis. Early diagnosis and therapeutic intervention are essential for improving the prognosis of patients with IPF. The level of nitric oxide upregulates in the alveoli of IPF patients, which is correlated with the severity of the disease. Herein, we report a fluorescent probe DCM-nitric oxide (NO) to detect IPF by monitoring the concentration changes of NO. This probe displays a fast response time and a good linear response to NO in vitro. Fluorescence imaging experiments with probe DCM-NO revealed that the level of intracellular NO increases in the pulmonary fibrosis cells and IPF mice models. Probe DCM-NO displayed a strong red fluorescence in IPF mice models. However, a declining fluorescence was evidenced in the OFEV-treated IPF mice, implying that DCM-NO is capable of evaluating the therapeutic effects on IPF. Thus, probe DCM-NO can quickly predict the progression of pulmonary fibrosis at an early stage and thus help improve the effective treatment.
