Abstract
Hydrogen production by photosynthetic hybrid systems (PBSs) offers a promising avenue for renewable energy. However, the light-harvesting efficiency of PBSs remains constrained due to unclear intracellular kinetic factors. Here, we present an operando elucidation of the sluggish light-harvesting behavior for existing PBSs and strategies to circumvent them. By quantifying the spectral shift in the structural color scattering of individual PBSs during the photosynthetic process, we observe the accumulation of product hydrogen bubbles on their outer membrane. These bubbles act as a sunshade and inhibit light absorption. This phenomenon elucidates the intrinsic constraints on the light-harvesting efficiency of PBSs. The introduction of a tension eliminator into the PBSs effectively improves the bubble sunshade effect and results in a 4.5-fold increase in the light-harvesting efficiency. This work provides valuable insights into the dynamics of transmembrane transport gas products and holds the potential to inspire innovative designs for improving the light-harvesting efficiency of PBSs.

Abstract
Mechanical signals in animal tissues are complex and rapidly changed, and how the force transduction emerges from the single-cell adhesion bonds remains unclear. DNA-based molecular tension sensors (MTS), albeit successful in cellular force probing, were restricted by their detection range and temporal resolution. Here, we introduced a plasmonic tension nanosensor (PTNS) to make straight progress toward these shortcomings. Contrary to the fluorescence-based MTS that only has specific force response thresholds, PTNS enabled the continuous and reversible force measurement from 1.1 to 48 pN with millisecond temporal resolution. We used the PTNS to visualize the high dynamic range single-molecule force transitions at cell-matrix adhesions during adhesion formation and migration. Time-resolved force traces revealed that the lifetime and duration of stepwise force transitions of molecular clutches are strongly modulated by the traction force through filamentous actin. The force probing technique is sensitive, fast, and robust and constitutes a potential tool for single-molecule and single-cell biophysics.

Abstract
The interactions among tumour cells, the tumour microenvironment (TME) and non-tumour tissues are of interest to many cancer researchers. Micro-engineering approaches and nanotechnologies are under extensive exploration for modelling these interactions and measuring them in situ and in vivo to investigate therapeutic vulnerabilities in cancer and extend a systemic view of tumour ecosystems. Here we highlight the greatest opportunities for improving the understanding of tumour ecosystems using microfluidic devices, bioprinting or organ-on-a-chip approaches. We also discuss the potential of nanosensors that can transmit information from within the TME or elsewhere in the body to address scientific and clinical questions about changes in chemical gradients, enzymatic activities, metabolic and immune profiles of the TME and circulating analytes. This Review aims to connect the cancer biology and engineering communities, presenting biomedical technologies that may expand the methodologies of the former, while inspiring the latter to develop approaches for interrogating cancer ecosystems.

Single-Particle Measurements of Nanocatalysis with Dark-Field Microscopy. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
Due to the complexity of heterogeneous reactions and heterogeneities of individual catalyst particles in size, morphology, and the surrounding medium, it is very important to characterize the structure of nanocatalysts and measure the reaction process of nanocatalysis at the single-particle level. Traditional ensemble measurements, however, only provide averaged results of billions of nanoparticles (NPs), which do not help reveal structure–activity relationships and may overlook a few NPs with high activity. The advent of dark-field microscopy (DFM) combined with plasmonic resonance Rayleigh scattering (PRRS) spectroscopy provides a powerful means for directly recording the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectrum of single plasmonic nanoparticles (PNPs), which also enables quantitative measurements. In recent years, DFM has developed rapidly for a series of single-particle catalytic reactions such as redox reactions, electrocatalytic reactions, and DNAzyme catalysis, with the ability to monitor the catalytic reaction process in real time and reveal the catalytic mechanism. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles and practical applications of DFM in measuring various kinds of catalysis (including chemocatalysis, electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and biocatalysis) at the single-particle level. Perspectives on the remaining challenges and future trends in this field are also proposed.

Abstract
The facile and noninjurious image of cells with high resolution and low toxicity is essential since imaging can offer rich and direct information and insights into metabolic activities, clinical diagnosis, drug delivery and cancer therapy. In this contribution, a smart imaging probe was employed as a contrast agent for dark-field cell imaging. Au core/Ag shell nanorods (Au@Ag NRs) that characterized by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, formed Au@Ag@AgI NRs when exposed to iodine, which greatly enhanced the light scattering of nanorods. Herein, the silver shell acted as the response element for iodine as well as the protective agent for Au core. When conjugated with folate, the nanorods can be used to image human cervical cancer cells (HeLa cells) under a dark-field microscope. Nanorods were demonstrated with excellent tumor cellular uptake ability without obvious cytotoxicity, making them ideal candidates in biosensing and bioimaging applications.

Abstract
A route is developed for directly growing 2D Au polyhedron arrays with controllable exposed facets of polyhedron by utilizing the substrate-supported 2D Au quasi-spherical nanoparticle arrays as the Au seed arrays, which cannot be realized by traditional lithography. In the reaction system, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) plays a vital role in guiding the reduced Au atoms and stabilizing the substrate-supported Au seeds. More importantly, by thermodynamic control, PVP as a capping agent can further direct the formation of {111} facets. The key to guarantee the integrity and periodicity of array is a proper reduction of Au ions and low growth rate of crystal. Benefiting from the higher electric field intensity near the sharp vertexes and edges of Au polyhedra and the exposed {110} facets with high energy, the Au polyhedron array with {110} facets encasing polyhedron exhibits good, stable surface enhanced Raman scattering activity toward 4-aminothiophenol among the involved arrays. The proposed fabrication approach tremendously enriches the structural diversity of Au nanoarrays on substrates and greatly overcomes the shortcoming of traditional lithography.

Abstract
MicroRNAs involved in tumor-related tissues at abnormal expression level present tremendous potential in the early diagnosis of cancers. However, their intrinsic shortcomings, for instance, low abundance and high sequence homology, make it challengeable to quantify them with high sensitivity and selectivity. Herein, a highly sensitive platform with great specificity was developed for microRNA-21 based on the produced-I2 triggered chemical etching of gold nanorods to a smaller size, resulting in a significant blue shift and a great intensity decrease in the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) scattering. The synergism of strand displacement and enzymatic reaction enabled the proposed strategy with a high sensitivity and selectivity toward microRNA-21 in a dynamic range from 0.1 to 10,000 pM and a low limit of detection of 71.22 fM (3σ/k) by dark-field microscope. Additionally, the remarkable discrimination of single nucleotide difference suggested the superior selectivity towards microRNA-21, which presented a satisfactory recovery in human serum samples. The proposed plasmon platform could also serve as a universal and sensitive detection of cancer biomarkers, presenting the amusing application prospects in the early diagnosis of various cancers by adapting the corresponding nucleic acid sequences.

Abstract
Direct visual enumeration of viruses under dark-field microscope (DFM) using plasmon resonance probes (PRPs) is fast and convenient; however, it is greatly limited in the assay of real samples because of its inability to accurately identify false positives owing to non-specific adsorption. In this study, we propose an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted DFM enumeration strategy for the accurate assay of Enterovirus A71 (an ultra-small human virus) using two PRPs; a 40 nm silver nanoparticle probe (SNP) that appears bright blue under DFM, and a 120 nm gold nanorod probe (GNP) that appears red under DFM. The capture chip was prepared by immobilizing the SNPs with antibodies on the glass to capture the target virus and to form dichromatic sandwich structures with the GNPs, followed by imaging under a dark field (DF). Subsequently, the DF images of the capture chip were subjected to a two-step screening: first, using image processing, and thereafter using the AI algorithm screening to eliminate false positive results and background noise. The results revealed that the data from the AI-assisted dual PRPs assay were highly consistent with those of quantitative PCR (qPCR), and that the sensitivity with a minimum detectable concentration of 3 copies/μL was 5 times higher than that of qPCR. The entire analysis was completed within 45 min. Therefore, our AI-assisted virus enumeration strategy with two DF PRPs holds great potential for ultra-sensitive and accurate quantification of viruses in real samples.

Abstract
Site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids (UAAs) into target proteins (UAA-proteins) provides the unprecedented opportunities to study cell biology and biomedicine. However, it is a big challenge to in situ quantitatively determine the expression level of UAA-proteins due to serious interferences from autofluorescence, background scattering, and different viscosity in living cells. Here, we proposed a novel single nanoparticle spectroscopy method, differenced resonance light scattering correlation spectroscopy (D-RLSCS), to measure the UAA-proteins in single living cells. The D-RLSCS principle is based on the simultaneous measurement of the resonance scattering light fluctuation of a single gold nanoparticle (GNP) in two detection channels irradiated by two coaxial laser beams and then autocorrelation analysis on the differenced fluctuation signals between two channels. D-RLSCS can avoid the interferences from intracellular background scattering and provide the concentration and rotational and translational diffusion information of GNPs in solution or in living cells. Furthermore, we proposed a parameter, the ratiometric diffusion time and found that this parameter is proportional to the square of particle size. The theoretical and experimental results demonstrated that the ratiometric diffusion time was not influenced by the intracellular viscosity. This method was successfully applied for in situ quantification of the UAA-protein within single living cells based on the increase in the ratiometric diffusion time of nanoprobes bound with proteins. Using UAA-EGFP (enhanced green fluorescent protein) as a model, we observed the significant difference in the UAA-protein concentrations at different positions in single living cells.

Abstract
Purpose: The growing prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria makes it clinically urgent to develop an agent able to detect and treat infections simultaneously. Silver has served as a broad-spectrum antimicrobial since ancient times but suffers from major challenges such as moderate antimicrobial activity, nonspecific toxicity, and difficulty to be visualized in situ. Here, we propose a new photoactive silver nanoagent that relies on a photosensitizer-triggered cascade reaction to liberate Ag+ on bacterial surfaces exclusively, allowing the precise killing of MDR bacteria. Additionally, the AgNP core acts as a backgroundless surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate for imaging the distribution of the nanoagents on bacterial surfaces and monitoring their metabolic dynamics in the infection sites. Methods: In this strategy, the photoactive antibacterial AgNP was decorated with photosensitizers (Chlorin e6, Ce6) and Raman reporter (4-Mercaptobenzonitrile, 4-MB) to provide new opportunities for clinically monitoring and fighting MDR bacterial infections. Upon 655 nm laser activation, the Ce6 molecules produce ROS efficiently, triggering the rapid release of Ag+ from the AgNP core to kill bacteria. Poly[4-O-(α-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-glucopyranose] (GP) was introduced as bacteria-specific targeting ligands. SERS spectra of the prepared GP-Ce6/MB-AgNPs were recorded after injecting for 0.5, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h to track the dynamic metabolism of the nanoagents and thus guiding the antibacterial therapy. Results: This new antimicrobial strategy exerts a dramatically enhanced antibacterial activity. The in vitro antibacterial efficiencies of this non-antibiotic technique were up to 99.6% against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and 98.8% against Escherichia coli (EC), while the in vivo antibacterial efficiencies for MRSA- and Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA)-infected mice models were 96.8% and 93.6%, respectively. Besides, backgroundless SERS signal intensity of the wound declined to the level of normal tissue until 24 h, indicating that the nanoagents had been completely metabolized from the infected area. Conclusion: Given the backgroundless monitoring ability, high antibacterial efficacy, and low toxicity, the photoactive cascading agents would hold great potential for MDR-bacterial detection and elimination in diverse clinical settings.

Abstract
In this work, we structured a colorimetric ultrasensitive detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) based on a proximity hybridization-induced gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) dimers structure. Under the dark-field microscope, this method takes advantage of the distinctive and strong distance-relative localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Au NPs and their oriented assembly. DNA served as a medium showing wonderful flexibility to label antibody and Au NPs, and tune interparticle spacing as well. Two capture probes were formed by the integration of DNA labeled antibody (DNA1-Ab1 or DNA2-Ab2) and asymmetrically assembled DNA (DNA 3 or DNA 4)- Au NPs via partly hybridization between DNA sequences. In the presence of antigen, the reaction between target protein and capture probes could trigger the generation of immunocomplex which led to the proximity hybridization of the DNA1 and DNA2, and then change the distance of interparticle to form Au NP dimers and thus showed a different color under dark-field microscope. A limit of detection of 14.25 pg/mL was obtained for the detection of CEA, which indicated a promising sensing method in clinical diagnosis of protein biomarkers.

Abstract
There is still an urgent need to develop reliable analytical methods of O2•- in vivo for deeply elucidating the roles of O2•- playing in the brain. Herein, a nonenzymatic electrochemical sensor with ratiometric signal output was developed for an in vivo analysis of O2•- in the rat brain. Diphenylphosphonate-2-naphthol ester (ND) was designed and synthesized as a specific recognition molecule for the selective determination of O2•-. An anodic peak ascribed to the oxidation of 2-naphthol was generated via the nucleophilic substitution between ND and O2•- and was increased with the increasing concentration of O2•-. Meanwhile, the inner reference of methylene blue (MB) was co-assembled at the electrode surface to enhance the determination accuracy of O2•-. The anodic peak current ratio between 2-naphthol and MB exhibited a good linear relationship with the concentration of O2•- from 2 to 200 μM. Because of the stable molecule character of ND and its specific reaction with O2•-, the developed electrochemical sensor demonstrated excellent selectivity toward various potential interferences in the brain and good stability even after storage for 7 days. Accordingly, the present electrochemical sensor with high selectivity, high stability, and high accuracy was successfully exploited in monitoring the levels of O2•- in the rat brain and that of the diabetic model followed by cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
X-ray-based analytics are routinely applied in many fields, including physics, chemistry, materials science, and engineering. The full potential of such techniques in the life sciences and medicine, however, has not yet been fully exploited. We highlight current and upcoming advances in this direction. We describe different X-ray-based methodologies (including those performed at synchrotron light sources and X-ray free-electron lasers) and their potentials for application to investigate the nano-bio interface. The discussion is predominantly guided by asking how such methods could better help to understand and to improve nanoparticle-based drug delivery, though the concepts also apply to nano-bio interactions in general. We discuss current limitations and how they might be overcome, particularly for future use in vivo.

Abstract
With the advent of nanofabrication techniques, plasmonic nanoparticles (PNPs) have been widely applied in various research fields ranging from photocatalysis to chemical and bio-sensing. PNPs efficiently convert chemical or physical stimuli in their local environment into optical signals. PNPs also have excellent properties, including good biocompatibility, large surfaces for the attachment of biomolecules, tunable optical properties, strong and stable scattering light, and good conductivity. Thus, single optical biosensors with plasmonic properties enable a broad range of uses of optical imaging techniques in biological sensing and imaging with high spatial and temporal resolution. This work provides a comprehensive overview on the optical properties of single PNPs, the description of five types of commonly used optical imaging techniques, including surface plasmon resonance (SPR) microscopy, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique, differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy, total internal reflection scattering (TIRS) microscopy, and dark-field microscopy (DFM) technique, with an emphasis on their single plasmonic nanoprobes and mechanisms for applications in biological imaging and sensing, as well as the challenges and future trends of these fields.

Abstract
A bio-coreactant-enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) microscopy realizes the ECL imaging of intracellular structure and dynamic transport. This microscopy uses Ru(bpy)3 2+ as the electrochemical molecular antenna connecting extracellular and intracellular environments, and uses intracellular biomolecules as the coreactants of ECL reactions via a "catalytic route". Accordingly, intracellular structures are identified without using multiple labels, and autophagy involving DNA oxidative damage is detected using nuclear ECL signals. A time-resolved image sequence discloses the universal edge effect of cellular electroporation due to the influence of the geometric properties of cell membranes on the induced transmembrane voltage. The dynamic transport of Ru(bpy)3 3+ in the different cellular compartments unveils the heterogeneous intracellular diffusivity correlating with the actin cytoskeleton. In addition to single-cell studies, the bio-coreactant-enhanced ECL microscopy is used to image a slice of a mouse liver and a colony of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1.

Abstract
Plasmonically engineered nanomaterials based on Au-Ag for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based biomedicine is of great importance but is still far behind clinical needs because of the poor compatibility between sensitivity and safety. Here, robust plasmonically encoded Raman scattering nanoparticles, named Au core-Raman-active molecule-Ag shell-Au shell nanoparticles (CMSS NPs), were synthesized. The as-developed CMSS NPs possess a unique exterior ultrathin Au shell (∼2.2 nm thickness) that plays double key roles as an effective wrapping layer as well as a plasmonic enhancing layer, thereby showing not only extraordinary stability against oxidative damages and bioerosion but also outstanding SERS sensitivity because of the stronger in-built electromagnetic field, achieving a significant SERS enhancement factor of 3.3 × 108. The results confirm that the individual CMSS NPs show ultrahigh brightness, reproducibility, selectivity, and biocompatibility in single-cell Raman imaging. Moreover, ultrabright in vivo tumor imaging with 1 × 1 mm2 area can be quickly achieved within 35 s under open-air condition. Furthermore, by secondary plasmonic encoding, the CMSS NPs flexibly serve as nanobeacon to monitor single-cell autophagy with improved accuracy. The CMSS NPs are expected as versatile SERS probes that enable ultrabright, fast, and precise Raman-based bioimaging and clinical bioapplications.

Abstract
Autophagy is an adaptive catabolic process functioning to promote cell survival in the event of inappropriate living conditions such as nutrient shortage and to cope with diverse cytotoxic insults. It is regarded as one of the key survival mechanisms of living organisms. Cells undergo autophagy to accomplish the lysosomal digestion of intracellular materials including damaged proteins, organelles, and foreign bodies, in a bulk, non-selective or a cargo-specific manner. Studies in the past decades have shed light on the association of autophagy pathways with various diseases and also highlighted the therapeutic value of autophagy modulation. Hence, it is crucial to develop effective approaches for monitoring intracellular autophagy dynamics, as a comprehensive account of methodology establishment is far from complete. In this review, we aim to provide an overview of the major current fluorescence-based techniques utilized for visualizing, sensing or measuring autophagic activities in cells or tissues, which are categorized firstly by targets detected and further by the types of fluorescence tools. We will mainly focus on the working mechanisms of these techniques, put emphasis on the insight into their roles in biomedical science and provide perspectives on the challenges and future opportunities in this field.

Abstract
The two-dimensional (2D) periodic Au nanosphere array with silver coating was prepared by using a colloidal monolayer template to obtain a Au nanosphere array and subsequently depositing silver thin coating on it, which could be used as an optical sensor to effectively detect H2S. Such periodic Au nanosphere array with silver coating displayed a surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) peak and an optical diffraction peak. Compared with the SPR peak, the diffraction peak, originated from the periodic arrangements of the obtained array, demonstrated a more sensitive optical change to detect H2S with a significant redshift as the H2S concentration increased. It was attributed to the increase of the refractive index of the environment around the Au nanosphere arrays with silver coating due to the partial formation of Ag2S after detecting H2S. Furthermore, the H2S sensor based on the change of the optical diffraction peak, showed an excellent selectivity and it was very sensitive to detect H2S from 2 to 30 μM. This method was investigated by the analysis in H2S-spiked blood samples, which indicates that the method has the potential to detect H2S in blood samples. The presented work provides a new strategy of utilizing the optical diffraction peak of the periodic array to develop promising sensors.

Abstract
γ-Hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) functions as a depressant on the central nerve system and serves as a pharmaceutical agent in the treatment of narcolepsy and alcohol withdraw. In recent years, GHB has been misused as a recreational drug due to its ability to induce euphoric feelings. Moreover, it has gained increasing attention as a popular drug of abuse that is frequently related to drug-facilitated sexual assaults. At the moment, detection methods based on chromatography exhibit extraordinary sensitivity for GHB sensing. However, such techniques require complicated sample treatment prior to analysis. Optical sensors provide an alternative approach for rapid and simple analysis of GHB samples. Unfortunately, currently reported probes are mostly based on hydrogen bonding to recognize GHB, and this raises concerns about, for example, the lack of specificity. In this work, we report a bioinspired strategy for selective sensing of GHB. The method is based on specific enzyme recognition to allow highly selective detection of GHB with minimum interference, even in a complex sample matrix (e. g., simulated urine). In addition, the result can be obtained by either quantitative spectroscopy analysis or colorimetric change observed by the naked-eye, thus demonstrating its potential application in drug screening and forensic analysis.

Abstract
The multi-drug resistance (MDR) is the leading reason resulting in the failure of cancer treatment. Decreasing the development chance of MDR and fighting against the MDR cancer are still facing severe challenges. In order to overcome MDR via disrupting the original metabolic pathway of cancer cells, we designed a multi-functionalized nano-conjugate based on the starvation therapy to make cancer cells availably sensitized to chemotherapy. The nano-conjugate constitutes of the nano-carrier (AuNP-PEG-RGD) and glucose oxidase (GOx, activity equivalent), which not only can specifically target cancer cells with the help of the cancer-targeting peptide (RGD) laid on the surface, but also can deplete glucose and O2 with the simultaneous generation of H2O2. Insufficient glucose, excess H2O2, and hypoxia microenvironments can suppress cell proliferation and induce cell apoptosis. With the hypothesis that the specific damage induced by the nano-conjugate can make cancer cells much vulnerable to chemotherapy, we further evaluated the therapeutic effect of an anti-cancer drug (doxorubicin, Dox) with the assistance of the low dose of nano-conjugate for the breast cancer cell. The results indicate that 0.2 μg/mL of Dox in the combination of 22.5 pM of the nano-conjugate can kill 80% cancer cells, which effectively improves the treatment efficiency compared with the nano-conjugate or Dox alone based on the synergism effect (the combination index<1). More importantly, our developed strategy can be used for sensitizing the MDR cancer cells to the traditional ineffective drugs, which owns potential applications in decreasing the chance of MDR development and overcoming drug-resistant cancers.

WILEY INTERDISCIPLINARY REVIEWS-NANOMEDICINE AND NANOBIOTECHNOLOGY 2020; 13:e1661. [PMID: 32755036 DOI: 10.1002/wnan.1661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2019] [Revised: 05/21/2020] [Accepted: 06/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Nanomaterials are playing an increasingly important role in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Nanoparticle (NP)-based technologies have been utilized for targeted drug delivery during chemotherapies, photodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy. Another active area of research is the toxicity studies of these nanomaterials to understand the cellular uptake and transport of these materials in cells, tissues, and environment. Traditional techniques such as transmission electron microscopy, and mass spectrometry to analyze NP-based cellular transport or toxicity effect are expensive, require extensive sample preparation, and are low-throughput. Dark-field hyperspectral imaging (DF-HSI), an integration of spectroscopy and microscopy/imaging, provides the ability to investigate cellular transport of these NPs and to quantify the distribution of them within bio-materials. DF-HSI also offers versatility in non-invasively monitoring microorganisms, single cell, and proteins. DF-HSI is a low-cost, label-free technique that is minimally invasive and is a viable choice for obtaining high-throughput quantitative molecular analyses. Multimodal imaging modalities such as Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectroscopy are also being integrated with HSI systems to enable chemical imaging of the samples. HSI technology is being applied in surgeries to obtain molecular information about the tissues in real-time. This article provides brief overview of fundamental principles of DF-HSI and its application for nanomaterials, protein-detection, single-cell analysis, microbiology, surgical procedures along with technical challenges and future integrative approach with other imaging and measurement modalities. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > in vitro Nanoparticle-Based Sensing Diagnostic Tools > in vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanoscale Tools and Techniques in Surgery.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticle (Ag NP)-coated carbon quantum dot (CQD) core-shell-structured nanocomposites (CQD@Ag NCs) were developed for fluorescent imaging of intracellular superoxide anion (O2•-). The morphology of CQD@Ag NCs was investigated by transmission electron microscopy, and the composition was characterized by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. CQDs display blue fluorescence with excitation/emission maxima at 360/440 nm, and the fluorescence was quenched by Ag NPs in CQD@Ag NCs. In the presence of O2•-, Ag NPs were oxide-etched and the fluorescence of CQDs was recovered. A linearity between the relative fluorescence intensity and O2•- solution concentration within the range 0.6 to 1.6 μM was found, with a detection limit of 0.3 μM. Due to their high sensitivity, selectivity, and low cytotoxicity, the as-synthesized CQD@Ag NCs have been successfully applied for imaging of O2•- in MCF-7 cells during the whole process of autophagy induced by serum starvation. In our perception, the developed method provides a cost-effective, sensitive, and selective tool in bioimaging and monitoring of intracellular O2•- changes, and is promising for potential biological applications.

Abstract
Hydroxyl radicals (•OH) are a type of short-lived radical which is the most aggressive reactive oxygen species due to its high reactivity to biomolecules. Dynamic measurement of •OH level in living cells is critical for understanding cell physiology and pathology. In this manuscript, we prepare individual Ag-Au@PEG/RGD nanocages for in situ determination of endogenous •OH at single-cell level, whose spectral shift rate correlate to the •OH concentration. The high-selective response to •OH relies on the specific oxidization of the conjugated PEG/RGD outside and the silver etching inside the nanocages that resulted in a significant LSPR signal and scattered color changes. The spectral red-shift rate of LSPR has a linear relationship with the logarithm of •OH concentration in range of 100 pM to 1 μM, suitable for the measurement of endogenous •OH. Thus, the individual nanocages were successfully used to monitor the dynamic intracellular •OH level of single tumor cells under oxidative stress. This strategy has great potential in promoting •OH mediated cell homeostasis and injury research.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1), over expression in vast majority of cancer cells, is a potential biomarker for clinical diagnosis. However, very limited detection methods have been developed so far, especially for in situ intracellular imaging. Here, we developed a spectral-resolved single-particle detection method for detection of PARP-1 in vitro and in situ intracellular imaging with dark-field microscopy (DFM). A gold nanoparticle (50 nm) modified with active DNA duplex (Au50-dsDNA) was used as a scattering probe. Under the function of active dsDNA, PARP-1 catalyzed to synthesize the hyperbranched poly (ADP-ribose) polymer (PAR) by using nicotinamideadenine dinucleotide as substrates, forming Au50-dsDNA@PAR. Then, negatively charged PAR adsorbed positively charged AuNPs (8 nm) to form Au50-dsDNA@PAR@Au8. As a result, a notable red shift occurred in localized surface plasmon resonance scattering spectra of Au50, accompanying with obvious color change. Thus, PARP-1 has been detected with a linear range from 0.2 to 10 mU based on the scattering spectra change. The detection limit was 2 orders of magnitude lower than previously reported methods. Probes showed distinct different colors in cancer cells and normal cells, realizing in situ imaging of intracellular PARP-1 at a single-particle level. Compared with previously reported fluorescence imaging methods, the proposed strategy avoided sophisticated label procedures, which has great potential to be used for clinical diagnosis and PARP-1 inhibitor research.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNP) have been extensively developed as contrast agents, theranostic platforms, and probes for molecular imaging. This popularity has yielded a large number of AuNP designs that vary in size, shape, surface functionalization, and assembly, to match very closely the requirements for various imaging applications. Hence, AuNP based probes for molecular imaging allow the use of computed tomography (CT), fluorescence, and other forms of optical imaging, photoacoustic imaging (PAI), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and other newer techniques. The unique physicochemical properties, biocompatibility, and highly developed chemistry of AuNP have facilitated breakthroughs in molecular imaging that allow the detection and imaging of physiological processes with high sensitivity and spatial resolution. In this Review, we summarize the recent advances in molecular imaging achieved using novel AuNP structures, cell tracking using AuNP, targeted AuNP for cancer imaging, and activatable AuNP probes. Finally, the perspectives and current limitations for the clinical translation of AuNP based probes are discussed.

Abstract
Taking the advantages of excellent optical properties, biocompatibility, and photostability of carbon dots, herein, we developed polarity-sensitive polymer carbon dots (PCDs) for visualizing of cellular polarity to real-time monitoring autophagy changes without perturbing the cellular status. The PCDs can be prepared by simply mixing dopamine (DA), H2O2, and o-phenylenediamine (o-PDA) in a common beaker without the need for any special equipment or external energy supply, and the preparation could be completed within 3 min at room temperature. Interestingly, the polarity-sensitive PCDs could emit various types of fluorescence and are insensitive to the excitation light when dispersed in different water/dioxane systems with different polarities. Based on the polarity-sensitive emission of the PCDs, the change of polarity during autophagy has been successfully monitored in living cells. Moreover, the change of polarity detected by PCDs is autophagy-specific (does not occur during apoptosis), occurs under different autophagy-inducing situations (starvation, rapamycin, and trehalose), and requires a normal autophagic flux, showing that PCDs rapidly prepared by polymerization cross-linking at room temperature can be functionally applied in the case of autophagy-related physiological or pathological processes.

Abstract
Autophagy is a dynamic and complicated catabolic process. Imaging autophagic flux can clearly advance knowledge of its pathophysiology significance. While the most common way autophagy is imaged relies on fluorescent protein-based probes, this method requires substantial genetic manipulation that severely restricts the application. Small fluorescent probes capable of tracking autophagic flux with good spatiotemporal resolution are highly demanable. Methods: In this study, we developed a small-molecule fluorogenic probe (AFG-1) that facilitates real-time imaging of autophagic flux in both intact cells and live mice. AFG-1 is inspired by the cascading nitrosative and acidic microenvironments evolving during autophagy. It operates over two sequential steps. In the first step, AFG-1 responds to the up-regulated peroxynitrite at the initiation of autophagy by its diphenylamino group being oxidatively dearylated to yield a daughter probe. In the second step, the daughter probe responds to the acidic autolysosomes at the late stage of autophagy by being protonated. Results: This pathway-dependent mechanism has been confirmed first by sequentially sensing ONOO- and acid in aqueous solution, and then by imaging autophagic flux in live cells. Furthermore, AFG-1 has been successfully applied to visualize autophagic flux in real-time in live mice following brain ischemic injury, justifying its robustness. Conclusion: Due to the specificity, easy operation, and the dynamic information yielded, AFG-1 should serve as a potential tool to explore the roles of autophagy under various pathological settings.

Abstract
A novel dual-mode nanoprobe (Apt@MNPS) was created for the detection of autophagy-related miRNAs to monitor the autophagic level and study the effect of PTT on autophagy. Interestingly, using our developed probe, PTT was found to be able to activate the autophagy by down regulation of miR-18a* and miR-4802, which in turn restricted the PTT efficiency for cancer.

Abstract
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are a type of rare cell that are firstly shed from solid tumors and then exist in the bloodstream. The effective capture and separation of CTCs has significant meaning in cancer diagnosis and prognosis. In this study, novel Fe3O4-FePt magnetic nanocomposites (Fe3O4-FePt MNCs) were constructed by integrating face centered cubic (fcc) FePt nanoparticles (NPs) onto the surface of the Fe3O4@SiO2 core. After further modification with NH2-PEG-COOH and the tumor-targeting molecule tLyP-1, the acquired Fe3O4-FePt MNCs possesses excellent biocompatibility and stability and could efficiently target and capture tLyP-1 receptor-positive CTCs. Based on the acidic microenvironment within cancer cells, the FePt layer could rapidly release active Fe2+ ions, which could catalyze H2O2 into reactive oxygen species (ROS) and further induce in situ apoptosis in cancer cells while having no distinct cytotoxicity to normal cells. Moreover, the Fe3O4@SiO2 core with its intrinsic magnetism has huge potential for the bioseparation of CTCs. The in vitro ROS fluorescence imaging experiments and cell capture and separation experiments indicated that the Fe3O4-FePt MNCs could specifically capture and separate cancer cells in the CTCs model and further induce in situ apoptosis. Therefore, the Fe3O4-FePt MNCs could serve as a promising multifunctional nanoseparator for efficiently capturing CTCs and simultaneously inducing in situ chemotherapy.

Abstract
While conventional wisdom suggests the scattering centroid of a plasmonic nanoparticle reflects its geometric center, here we uncover the dependence of a scattering centroid of a single gold nanorod (AuNR) on its electron density when the geometric features (position and morphology) do not change at all. When periodically altering the electron density of a single AuNR during nonfaradaic charging and discharging processes, the optical centroid of the scattering dot in a series of dark-field images was found to reversibly shift back and forth by ∼0.4 nm, in pace with the sweeping potential. A Fourier-transform-based demodulation method was proposed to determine the centroid displacement as small as 0.1 nm, allowing for validating the generality of the observed phenomenon. The dependence of an optical centroid on the potential was attributed to the displacement of the electron density center as a result of inhomogeneous accumulation of injected electrons on the surface of a single AuNR. Not only does the present work shed light on studying the photon-electron interactions at sub-nanoparticle level, Fourier transform-based demodulation also provides a superior strategy for other fast and reversible processes such as electrochromic and photothermal conversions.

Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) are comprehensively applied in biomedicine due to their unique physical and chemical properties. Autophagy, as an evolutionarily conserved cellular quality control process, is closely associated with the effect of NMs on cells. In this review, the recent advances in NM-induced/inhibited autophagy (NM-phagy) are summarized, with an aim to present a comprehensive description of the mechanisms of NM-phagy from the perspective of internalization, activation, and termination, thereby bridging autophagy and nanomaterials. Several possible mechanisms are extensively reviewed including the endocytosis pathway of NMs and the related cross components (clathrin and adaptor protein 2 (AP-2), adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6), Rab, UV radiation resistance associated gene (UVRAG)), three main stress mechanisms (oxidative stress, damaged organelles stress, and toxicity stress), and several signal pathway-related molecules. The mechanistic insight is beneficial to understand the autophagic response to NMs or NMs' regulation of autophagy. The challenges currently encountered and research trend in the field of NM-phagy are also highlighted. It is hoped that the NM-phagy discussion in this review with the focus on the mechanistic aspects may serve as a guideline for future research in this field.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles-enabled intracellular surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) provides a sensitive and promising technique for single cell analysis. Compared with spherical gold nanoparticles, gold nanoflowers, i.e., flower-shaped gold nanostructures, can produce a stronger SERS signal. Current exploration of gold nanoflowers for intracellular SERS has been considerably limited by the difficulties in preparation, as well as background signal and cytotoxicity arising from the surfactant capping layer. Recently, we have developed a facile and surfactant-free method for fabricating hollow-channel gold nanoflowers (HAuNFs) with great single-particle SERS activity. In this paper, we investigate the cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of our HAuNFs using a RAW 264.7 macrophage cell line, and have observed effective cellular internalization and low cytotoxicity. We have further engineered our HAuNFs into SERS-active tags, and demonstrated the functionality of the obtained tags as trimodal nanoprobes for dark-field and fluorescence microscopy imaging, together with intracellular SERS.
