Abstract
In this work, the development of highly luminescent europium(III) complexes in water solution is reported, including their syntheses, analyses of their photophysical properties and applications in bioassays. Three Eu(III) complexes are derived from new ligands based on a tripyridinophane platform. There are four distinct sections in the structure of these ligands: an 18-membered polyaminocarboxylic macrocycle to bind efficiently lanthanide ions in aqueous solutions, three chromophoric subunits (4-(phenylethynyl)pyridine moieties) to effectively sensitize the emission of the metal, two peripheral moieties to solubilise the complex in aqueous media (sulfonate, sulfobetaine or glucose groups) and a free NH2 group available for grafting or bioconjugation. In our synthetic procedure, a pivotal macrocyclic platform is obtained with a high yield in the crucial macrocyclization step due to a metal template ion effect (74% yield). In Tris aqueous buffer (pH 7.4), the Eu(III) complexes show a maximum excitation wavelength at 320 nm, a suitable overall quantum yield (14%), a relatively long lifetime (0.80 ms) and a one-photon brightness in the range of 10 000 M-1 cm-1. Importantly, these photophysical properties are retained at dilute concentrations, even in the presence of a very large excess of potentially competing species, such as EDTA or Mg2+ ions. Furthermore, we report the bioconjugation of a Eu(III) complex labelled by an N-hydroxysuccinimide ester reactive group with an antibody (anti-glutathione-S-transferase) and the successful application of the corresponding antibody conjugate in the detection of GST-biotin in a fluoroimmunoassay. These new complexes provide a solution for high sensitivity in Homogeneous Time-Resolved Fluorescence (HTRF®) bioassays.

Abstract
The unique photophysical properties of lanthanides, such as europium, terbium, and ytterbium, make them versatile molecular probes of biological systems. In particular, their long-lived photoluminescence, narrow bandwidth emissions, and large Stokes shifts enable experiments that are infeasible with organic fluorophores and fluorescent proteins. The ability of these metal ions to undergo luminescence resonance energy transfer, and photon upconversion further expands the capabilities of lanthanide probes. In this review, we describe recent advances in the design of lanthanide luminophores and their application in biological research. We also summarize the latest detection systems that have been developed to fully exploit the optical properties of lanthanide luminophores. We conclude with a discussion of remaining challenges and new frontiers in lanthanide technologies. The unprecedented levels of sensitivity and multiplexing afforded by rare-earth elements illustrate how chemistry can enable new approaches in biology.

Abstract
Molecular oxygen (O2) plays a key role in many physiological processes, and becomes a toxicant to kill cells when excited to 1O2. Intracellular O2 levels, or the degree of hypoxia, are always viewed as an indicator of cancers. Due to the highly efficient cancer therapy ability and low side effect, photodynamic therapy (PDT) becomes one of the most promising treatments for cancers. Herein, an early-stage diagnosis and therapy system is reported based on the phosphorescent conjugated polymer dots (Pdots) containing Pt(II) porphyrin as an oxygen-responsive phosphorescent group and 1O2 photosensitizer. Intracellular hypoxia detection has been investigated. Results show that cells treated with Pdots display longer lifetimes under hypoxic conditions, and time-resolved luminescence images exhibit a higher signal-to-noise ratio after gating off the short-lived background fluorescence. Quantification of O2 is realized by the ratiometric emission intensity of phosphorescence/fluorescence and the lifetime of phosphorescence. Additionally, the PDT efficiency of Pdots is estimated by flow cytometry, MTT cell viability assay, and in situ imaging of PDT induced cell death. Interestingly, Pdots exhibit a high PDT efficiency and would be promising in clinical applications.

Abstract
Using apoferritin (AFt) as a carrier, a novel ratiometric luminescence probe based on luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) between a Tb(3+) complex (PTTA-Tb(3+)) and a rhodamine derivative (Rh-NO), PTTA-Tb(3+)@AFt-Rh-NO, has been designed and prepared for the specific recognition and time-gated luminescence detection of nitric oxide (NO) in living samples. In this LRET probe, PTTA-Tb(3+) encapsulated in the core of AFt is the energy donor, and Rh-NO, a NO-responsive rhodamine derivative, bound on the surface of AFt is the energy acceptor. The probe only emits strong Tb(3+) luminescence because the emission of rhodamine is switched off in the absence of NO. Upon reaction with NO, accompanied by the turn-on of rhodamine emission, the LRET from Tb(3+) complex to rhodamine occurs, which results in the remarkable increase and decrease of the long-lived emissions of rhodamine and PTTA-Tb(3+), respectively. After the reaction, the intensity ratio of rhodamine emission to Tb(3+) emission, I565/I539, is ∼24.5-fold increased, and the dose-dependent enhancement of I565/I539 shows a good linearity in a wide concentration range of NO. This unique luminescence response allowed PTTA-Tb(3+)@AFt-Rh-NO to be conveniently used as a ratiometric probe for the time-gated luminescence detection of NO with I565/I539 as a signal. Taking advantages of high specificity and sensitivity of the probe as well as its good water-solubility, biocompatibility, and cell membrane permeability, PTTA-Tb(3+)@AFt-Rh-NO was successfully used for the luminescent imaging of NO in living cells and Daphnia magna. The results demonstrated the efficacy of the probe and highlighted it's advantages for the ratiometric time-gated luminescence bioimaging application.
