Abstract
Monitoring of glutathione has attracted considerable attention owing to its biological and clinical significance. An eco-friendly, economic, simple, biocompatible probe with excellent sensitivity and selectivity is very important. Herein, FeOOH QD@ATP-BODIPY nanocomposite was fabricated from one-step synthesized FeOOH quantum dots (FeOOH QD) and commercial boron-dipyrromethene-conjugated adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP-BODIPY) for glutathione (GSH) sensing in solutions and living cells. Three fascinate merits of FeOOH QD were confirmed: (a) as fluorescence quencher for ATP-BODIPY, (b) as selective recognizer of GSH and (c) with carrier effects and membrane permeability. The construction and response mechanism of the nanocomposite was based on the competitive coordination chemistry and redox reaction of FeOOH QD between GSH and phosphate group of ATP-BODIPY. Under the optimal conditions, the detection limit for GSH was as low as 68.8 nM. Excellent linear range of 0.2-400 μM was obtained. Furthermore, the chemical response of the nanocomposite exhibits high selectivity toward GSH over other electrolytes and biomolecules. It was successfully applied for GSH determination in human serum samples. The MTT assay exhibited FeOOH QD@ATP-BODIPY nanocomposite own good biocompatibility. FeOOH QD@ATP-BODIPY respond to GSH in living cells in situ was also proved via fluorescence imaging. These suggested that the FeOOH QD@ATP-BODIPY nanocomposite had potential application in biological and clinical applications.

Abstract
An antitumour chemo-photodynamic therapy nanoplatform was constructed based on phospholipid-coated NaYF4: Yb/Er upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs). In this work, the amphiphilic block copolymer DSPE-PEG2000 was combined with the surface ligand oleic acid of the UCNPs through hydrophobic interaction to form liposomes with a dense hydrophobic layer in which the photosensitizer hypocrellin B (HB) was assembled. The coated HB formed J-aggregates, which caused a large redshift in the absorption spectrum and improved the quantum efficiency of energy transfer. Furthermore, MnO2 nanosheets grew in-situ on the liposomes through OMn coordination. Therefore, a multifunctional tumour microenvironment (TME)-responsive theranostic nanoplatform integrating photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) was successfully developed. The results showed that this NIR-mediated chemo-photodynamic therapy nanoplatform was highly efficient for oncotherapy.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is an essential molecule that plays a pivotal role in maintaining intracellular redox homeostasis, as well as other physiological processes. However, the chemical mechanisms underlying the GSH-induced processes remain insufficiently understood due to the lack of appropriate detection tools. Fluorescence GSH imaging can serve as a useful principle for the rapid, convenient, and non-destructive detection of GSH in living organisms. In this study, we developed a fluorescent GSH probe based on a linear, homoleptic Au(I) complex with two 1,3-diphenylbenzimidazolium carbene ligands. The Au(I) complex produced a fluorescence turn-on response to GSH. Fluorescence GSH signaling was characterized with a short response time of a few seconds. The rapid response was attributed to the displacement of the carbene ligand with GSH, which involved a labile inner-sphere coordination interaction. Finally, we demonstrated the biological utility of our GSH probe by unambiguously discriminating between different GSH levels in normal and senescent preadipocytes.

Abstract
Fabricating more sensitive, stable and low-cost nanomaterials for the detection of glucose is important for the disease diagnosis and monitoring. Herein, we established a nanocomposite (polypyrrole bridging GO@Au@MnO2) as a novel surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobe for the quantitative detection of glucose in trace serum. Each component in the nanocomposites played an irreplaceable role in SERS detection of glucose. Polypyrrole (PPy) could act as Raman signal and extra SERS signal molecules didn't need to be introduced; Graphene oxide (GO) and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) could enhance Raman signal of PPy; Au NPs also acted as glucose oxidase, which can oxidize glucose to produce gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide(H2O2); Manganese oxide (MnO2) further enhanced Raman signal of PPy and responded to hydrogen peroxide, which will induce the decrease of Raman intensity of PPy. Thus, glucose can be quantified according to Raman signal output of PPy, which displayed a liner range from 1 to 10 μM, with detectable limit of 0.114 μM. Because of the merits in sensitivity, convenience and versatility, the novel method shows large potential space for disease-related substance detection in the future.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH)-switched fluorescent assays have appealed much attention due to rapid signal changes of fluorescent probes. However, exposure to exterior environment of fluorescent probe causes photobleaching and premature leakage, leading to low sensitivity and poor photostability. Herein, luminescent SiO2 nanoparticles encapsulated with Ru(bpy)32+ (Ru@SiO2) were designed and synthesized as fluorescent probe to construct a GSH-switched fluorescent assay. The encapsulation of Ru(bpy)32+ in the SiO2 nanoparticles could effectively prevent the leakage of Ru(bpy)32+ molecules, improving the photostability of probe. The fluorescence of Ru@SiO2 nanoparticles was quenched by coating MnO2 nanoparticles on Ru@SiO2 surface (Ru@SiO2@MnO2 nanocomposites) through an in situ growth approach, which reduced background of the assay. The MnO2 nanoparticles not only further inhibited the leakage of Ru(bpy)32+ molecules, but also could serve as a recognition unit of GSH. In the presence of GSH, the MnO2 nanoparticles on the surface of Ru@SiO2 nanoparticles were reduced to Mn2+, resulting the fluorescence recovery of Ru@SiO2 nanoparticles. Thus, a signal-on fluorescent strategy was constructed for GSH detection. The assay displayed good analytical performance for GSH detection with a low detection limit of 16.2 nM due to excellent fluorescence quenching ability of MnO2 nanoparticles and special role of Ru@SiO2 nanoparticles to block probe leakage. The proposed assay was also applied to measure GSH levels in human serum samples. This work paves a new way to detect GSH with high sensitivity.

Abstract
High plasma urate is closely related to gout, cardiovascular and other diseases. Therefore, monitoring the content of uric acid (UA) in plasma is of great significance for the treatment of gout and the prevention of other related diseases. Herein, a biosensor based on the biomimetic oxidase Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) @MnO2 nanosheets (Fe3O4@MnO2 NS) was constructed for colorimetric determination of UA. MnO2 NS is an efficient biomimetic oxidase, and we found that the intrinsic oxidase activity of MnO2 NS doped with Fe3O4 NPs can be significantly enhanced. The chromogenic substrate TMB can be catalyzed by Fe3O4 @MnO2 NS to generate blue oxidized TMB, and UA can decompose the MnO2 NS to inhibit the color reaction of TMB selectively, thereby realizing the quantitative detection of UA. In addition, the UA biosensor can perform colorimetric analysis of UA level through three methods: naked eye, smartphone and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometer. The linear ranges of UV-vis spectrophotometry and colorimetry with smartphone were 1-70 μM and 200-650 μM, respectively, and the limits of detection (LOD) were 0.27 μM and 21 μM. The analysis results of human plasma samples showed that the method had good selectivity and practicability.

Abstract
Herein, a green, economical, and waste-utilization approach is reported for the synthesis of water-soluble carbon nanodots (C-Dots) with a high fluorescence quantum yield of 19.5%. As a common protein-rich waste, eggshell membrane was selected as a cost-effective and ideal precursor to prepare C-Dots using the microwave method. The as-prepared C-Dots showed a maximum emission at 375 nm with an excitation wavelength at 235 nm. The fluorescent C-Dots were adopted as a sensitive probe for the rapid detection of Hg2+ and glutathione (GSH) based on the fluorescence off and on (turn-off-on) strategy. This was ascribed to the fact that Hg2+ could effectively quench the fluorescence of the C-Dots and GSH was able to prevent fluorescence quenching owing to the specific binding between Hg2+ and GSH. The designed method exhibited a high sensitivity and selectivity towards the detection of Hg2+ and GSH. Under the optimized conditions, the method showed a good linear relationship with Hg2+ concentration in the range from 100 nM to 50 μM with a detection limit of 32.0 nM. For GSH detection, it displayed a linear range from 50 nM to 10 μM with a detection limit of 9.8 nM. Moreover, this method was successfully applied to detect GSH in human serum samples. The eggshell derived fluorescent C-Dots pave the way for economical environmental and biological analyses.

Abstract
The direct visualization of vaccine fate is important to investigate its immunoactivation process to elucidate the detailed molecular reaction process at single-molecular level. Yet, visualization of the spatiotemporal trafficking of vaccines remains poorly explored. Here, we show that quantum dot (QD) nanomaterials allow for monitoring vaccine dynamics and for amplified immune response. Synthetic QDs enable efficient conjugation of antigen and adjuvants to target tissues and cells, and non-invasive imaging the trafficking dynamics to lymph nodes and cellular compartments. The nanoparticle vaccine elicits potent immune responses and anti-tumor efficacy alone or in combination with programmed cell death protein 1 blockade. The synthetic QDs showed high fluorescence quantum yield and superior photostability, and the reliable and long-term spatiotemporal tracking of vaccine dynamics was realized for the first time by using the synthetic QDs, providing a powerful strategy for studying immune response and evaluating vaccine efficacy.

Abstract
DNA-based nanoprobes have attracted extensive interest in the field of bioanalysis. Notably, engineered DNA nanoprobes that can respond to multiple pathological parameters are desirable to detect targets precisely. Here we design a split aptamer/DNAzyme (aptazyme)-based DNA probe for fluorescence detection of ATP and further develop a cooperatively activatable DNA nanoprobe for tumor-specific imaging of ATP in vivo. The DNA nanoprobes comprising split aptazyme-coated MnO2 nanovectors have high stability and are synergistically activated by multiple biomarkers, GSH and ATP. Upon stimuli by overexpressed GSH in tumor cells, this DNA nanoprobe can release the aptazyme and self-supply cofactor Mn2+ of the DNAzyme. Sequentially, intracellular ATP induces the proper folding of the split ATP aptamer and Mn2+-dependent DNAzyme, which activates the specific cleavage of substrate and generates the optical readout signal. This nanoprobe exhibits remarkable resistance to enzymatic degradation, satisfactory biosafety, identifies ATP specifically within cancer cells, and selectively lights up solid tumors. Our research provides a reliable method for ATP imaging in cancer cells and opens a new avenue for biochemical research and highly accurate disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Fluorescence sensing of glutathione by tailor-made chemical sensors is a prospective technique, which could provide simple, fast, and visual detection. Herein, a fluorescence sensor based on vanadium oxide quantum dots (VOx QDs) and permanganate (MnO4-) has been designed for monitoring glutathione. The bifunctional VOx QDs, possessing rich redox chemistry and robust fluorescence (exhibiting fluorescence near 505 nm upon excitation at 450 nm), were synthesized via cryogenic-mediated liquid-phase exfoliation. In the presence of MnO4-, VOx QDs induced the spontaneous formation of MnO2 nanosheets which caused the fluorescence quenching. However, the subsequent introduction of glutathione could trigger MnO2 reduction to Mn2+, and the fluorescence was recovered. Based on this phenomenon, an "on-off-on" fluorescence sensor for glutathione detection was established. Under the optimal conditions, this sensor allowed detection of glutathione in the linear range of 0.5-100 μM with a detection limit of 0.254 μM. Additionally, the proposed strategy revealed the selectivity toward glutathione and the potential of practical application in the analysis of human serum, vegetable, and fruit samples.

Abstract
A simple process, rich information, and intelligent response are the goals pursued by cancer diagnosis and treatment. Herein, we developed a core-shell plasmonic nanomaterial (Au@MnO2-DNA), which consisted of a AuNP core with an outer shell MnO2 nanosheet decorated with fluorophore modified DNA, to achieve the aforementioned aims. On the basis of the unique optical properties of plasmonic nanoparticles and the oxidability of the shell MnO2, scattering signal and fluorescence (FL) signal changes were both related to the expression level of glutathione (GSH), for which a dual-mode imaging analysis was successfully achieved on single optical microscope equipment with one-key switching. Meanwhile, the product of Mn2+ from the reaction between MnO2 and GSH not only served as a smart chemodynamic agent to initiate Fenton-like reaction for achieving chemodynamic therapy (CDT) of cancer cells but also relieved the side effect of intracellular GSH in cancer therapy. Therefore, the core-shell plasmonic nanomaterials with dual modal switching features and diagnostic properties act as excellent probes for achieving bioanalysis of aberrant levels of intracellular GSH and simultaneously activating the CDT of cancer cells based on the in situ reactions in cancer cells.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) plays a critical role in biological defense system and is associated with numerous human pathologies. However, it still remains a challenge for fluorescent detection of GSH over cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcy) because of their similar structures. In this work, MnO2 nanosheets can efficiently quench the fluorescence of gold nanoclusters (Met-AuNCs) prepared by blending methionine and HAuCl4 owing to their superior absorption capability. However, GSH can reduce MnO2 nanosheets into Mn2+ which leads to the fluorescence recovery of Met-AuNCs. More intriguingly, GSH can dramatically and selectively enhance the fluorescence intensity of Met-AuNCs. Hence, a low background, ultrasensitive fluorescent detection of GSH was obtained with a detection limit of 68 nM. Moreover, the assay has been successfully used for GSH detection in human serum samples and cellular imaging with high selectivity over Cys and Hcy.

Abstract
Quantification of biothiols in living systems is essential to understand their biological applications. Here, we developed two activatable chemiluminescence probes (SHCL and NCCL) and investigated their utility in the bioimaging of intracellular biothiols by directly tethering 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl to the hydroxyl group of phenoxy-dioxetane. The design of these two probes differed in substituents of phenol-dioxetane, i.e., SHCL contained the ortho chlorine, whereas NCCL had the para hydroxymethyl. Upon glutathione (GSH) cleavage, both probes emitted significantly "turn-on" chemiluminescent signals. However, the chemiluminescence intensity based on NCCL declined with increasing GSH level above 5 mM, while SHCL exhibited much higher chemiluminescent intensity and a wider concentration range (0.5 μM-50 mM), which was much more suitable for sensing endogenous biothiols. We further demonstrated that chlorine substitution in SHCL played an important role in bioimaging owing to the halogen effect, providing a lower pKa value and significant enhancement of the chemiluminescent emission. SHCL imaged the biothiols effectively in tumor cells and tumor-bearing mice. Additionally, this novel chemiluminescence probe can be easily used to evaluate the in vitro activity of acetylcholinesterase. Overall, we anticipate that SHCL may provide a facile and intuitive tool for studying the role of biothiols in diseases.

Abstract
Low-toxic InP quantum dots (QDs) as an ideal candidate for Cd-based QDs have tremendous potential for next-generation commercial display and biological detection applications. However, the progress in biological detection is still far behind that of the Cd-based QDs. This is mainly because the InP-based QDs are of inferior stability and photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) in aqueous solution. Here, PL QY of 65% and excellent stability of InP/GaP/ZnS QD@SiO2 nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized via a silica coating method. The containing thiol-capped hydrophobic InP/GaP/ZnS QDs were pre-silanized with waterless, ammonia-free hydrolysis tetraethyl orthosilicate, and subsequently, an outer silica shell was generated in the reverse microemulsion. The corresponding QD-based fluorescence-linked immunosorbent assay exhibits a high sensitivity of 0.9 ng mL-1 for C-reactive protein and the broad detection range of 1-1000 ng mL-1, which was close to that of the state-of-the-art Cd-based QD@SiO2 nanoparticles and had the highest sensitivity of Cd-free QDs so far. This work provides a very successful silica coating method for the containing thiol-capped hydrophobic QDs and the QDs highly sensitive to water and oxygen, and the obtained InP/GaP/ZnS QD@SiO2 nanoparticles were considered as the robust, biocompatible, and promising Cd-free fluorescent labels for the further ultra-sensitive detection.

Abstract
Nanostructured manganese dioxide (MnO2) has attracted extensive attention in the field of anticancer applications. As we all know, the tumor microenvironment is usually characterized by a high glutathione (GSH) concentration, overproduced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), acidity, and hypoxia, which affect the efficacy of many traditional treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. Fortunately, as one kind of redox-active nanomaterial, nanostructured MnO2 has many excellent properties such as strong oxidation ability, excellent catalytic activity, and good biodegradability. It can be used effectively in diagnosis and treatment when it reacts with some harmful substances in the tumor site. It can not only enhance the therapeutic effect but also adjust the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, it is necessary to present the recent achievements and progression of nanostructured MnO2 for anticancer applications, including preparation methods, diagnosis, and treatment. Special attention was paid to photodynamic therapy (PDT), bioimaging and cancer diagnosis (BCD), and drug delivery systems (DDS). This review is expected to provide helpful guidance on further research of nanostructured MnO2 for anticancer applications.

Abstract
By using graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD), a ratiometric fluorescence probe was designed for the highly sensitive and selective detection of AChE. GQDs with strong fluorescence were synthesized by the one-step hydrothermal method. The optimal emission wavelength of GQDs was 450 nm at the excitation wavelength of 375 nm. MnO2 nanosheets with a wide absorption band of 300-600 nm were prepared at room temperature. Because of the extensive overlap between the absorption spectrum of MnO2 nanosheets and the excitation and emission spectra of GQDs, the fluorescence of GQDs at 450 nm was efficiently quenched by the inner-filter effect. Meanwhile, due to the peroxidase-like activity of MnO2 nanosheets, OPD was catalytically oxidized to 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD), a yellow fluorescent substance with a new emission peak at 572 nm. When AChE was present, the substrate acetylthiocholine (ATCh) was hydrolyzed to thiocholine (TCh) that is capable of decomposing MnO2 nanosheets. Therefore, the quench of GQDs and the oxidation of OPD by MnO2 nanosheets were suppressed, resulting in the fluorescence recovery of GQDs at 450 nm, while the fluorescence decrease of oxOPD at 572 nm. Utilizing the fluorescence intensity ratio F450/F572 as the signal readout, the ratiometric fluorescence method was established to detect AChE activity. The ratio F450/F572 against the AChE concentration demonstrated two linear relationships in the range 0.1-2.0 and 2.0-4.5 mU mL-1 with a detection limit of 0.09 mU mL-1. The method was applied to the detection of positive human serum samples and the analysis of the inhibitor neostigmine. Due to the advantages of high sensitivity, favorable selectivity, and strong anti-interference, the method possesses an application prospect in clinical diagnosis of AChE and the screening of inhibitors. Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of a ratiometric fluorescence method for the detection of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). The fluorescence of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) is quenched and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) is oxidized to generate fluorescent product 2,3-diaminophenazine (oxOPD) by MnO2 nanosheets. When AChE is present, acetylthiocholine iodide (ATCh) is hydrolyzed to thiocholine (TCh) with reducibility for decomposing MnO2 nanosheets. Due to the decomposition of MnO2 nanosheets, the quenching of GQDs and oxidation of OPD are suppressed. The fluorescence of GQDs at 450 nm is enhanced, while the fluorescence of oxOPD at 572 nm is reduced. The fluorescence intensity ratio F450/F572 is used to establish the ratiometric fluorescence method for AChE activity.

Abstract
CpG island methylation plays an important role in diverse biological processes including the regulation of imprinted genes, X chromosome inactivation, and tumor suppressor gene silencing in human cancer. Due to the dependence of DNA methylation on DNA methyltransferase (MTase) activity, DNA MTases have become the potential targets in anticancer therapy. Herein we demonstrate for the first time the construction of a single quantum dot (QD) nanosensor with the capability of sensing methylcytosine sites for sensitive quantification of M.SssI CpG methyltransferase (M.SssI MTase). We design a biotin-/phosphate-modified double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) substrate with a 5'-G-C-G-mC-3'/3'-mC-G-mC-G-5' site for sensing M.SssI MTase. In the presence of M.SssI MTase, the methylation-responsive sequence of the dsDNA substrate is methylated and cleaved by GlaI endonuclease, producing two dsDNA fragments with a free 3'-OH terminus. In the presence of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), multiple Cy5-dATPs can be sequentially added to the free 3'-OH terminus of dsDNA fragments to obtain biotin-/multiple Cy5-labeled dsDNAs. The resultant biotin-/multiple Cy5-labeled dsDNAs can assemble on the surface of the streptavidin-coated QD to obtain a QD-dsDNA-Cy5 nanostructure in which the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the QD to Cy5 can occur. The emission of Cy5 can be simply quantified by single-molecule detection. By the integration of sensing methylcytosine sites and enzymatic polymerization, the sensitivity of this nanosensor has been significantly enhanced. This nanosensor can detect as low as 2.1 × 10-7 U μL-1 M.SssI MTase with good selectivity against other cytosine MTases, and it can be further applied for the screening of MTase inhibitors and complex biological sample analysis, holding great potential in clinical diagnosis and drug discovery.

Abstract
Nanomaterials are commonly utilized for amplified immunoassay of biomarkers. However, traditional nanomaterial-based immunoassay usually requires a time-consuming and labor-intensive nanoparticle modification and conjugation process, which impedes their practical applications. Here, a new immunoassay method based on biosynthesized nanomaterials is developed with versatile functions for facile and ultrasensitive detection of cancer biomarker. In this method, the utilized biosynthesized quantum dots (BQDs) allow convenient antibody conjugation and electrode modification, and demonstrate excellent electrochemical and electrochemiluminescent responses. The differential pulse voltammetric, faradaic impedance spectroscopy, and electrochemiluminescent measurements with the BQD-modified electrode show detection limits at picomolar levels as well as good specificity toward human prostate-specific antigen detection. The inherent recognization capability as well as the inherent electrochemical and electrochemiluminescence features thus enable BQDs as good candidates for facile immunosensors with high sensitivity. Such a biosynthesized nanomaterial-based approach opens up the possibility of using innovative designs for nanoparticle-based assays, and developing reliable and practical methods for early disease diagnosis.
