[PMID: 37652143 DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2023.108244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
Beta-galactosidase (β-gal), a typical glycosidase catalyzing the hydrolysis of glycosidic bonds, is regarded as a vital biomarker for cell senescence and cancer occurrence. Given the advantages of high spatiotemporal resolution, high sensitivity, non-invasiveness, and being free of ionizing radiations, fluorescent imaging technology provides an excellent choice for in vivo imaging of β-gal. In this review, we detail the representative biotech advances of fluorescence imaging probes for β-gal bearing diverse fidelity-oriented improvements to elucidate their future potential in preclinical research and clinical application. Next, we propose the comprehensive design strategies of imaging probes for β-gal with respect of high fidelity. Considering the systematic implementation approaches, a range of high-fidelity imaging-guided theragnostic are adopted for the individual β-gal-associated biological scenarios. Finally, current challenges and future trends are proposed to promote the next development of imaging agents for individual and specific application scenarios.

An Overview of the Public Health Challenges in Diagnosing and Controlling Human Foodborne Pathogens. Vaccines (Basel) 2023; 11:vaccines11040725. [PMID: 37112637 PMCID: PMC10143666 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11040725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Pathogens found in food are believed to be the leading cause of foodborne illnesses; and they are considered a serious problem with global ramifications. During the last few decades, a lot of attention has been paid to determining the microorganisms that cause foodborne illnesses and developing new methods to identify them. Foodborne pathogen identification technologies have evolved rapidly over the last few decades, with the newer technologies focusing on immunoassays, genome-wide approaches, biosensors, and mass spectrometry as the primary methods of identification. Bacteriophages (phages), probiotics and prebiotics were known to have the ability to combat bacterial diseases since the turn of the 20th century. A primary focus of phage use was the development of medical therapies; however, its use quickly expanded to other applications in biotechnology and industry. A similar argument can be made with regards to the food safety industry, as diseases directly endanger the health of customers. Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to bacteriophages, probiotics and prebiotics most likely due to the exhaustion of traditional antibiotics. Reviewing a variety of current quick identification techniques is the purpose of this study. Using these techniques, we are able to quickly identify foodborne pathogenic bacteria, which forms the basis for future research advances. A review of recent studies on the use of phages, probiotics and prebiotics as a means of combating significant foodborne diseases is also presented. Furthermore, we discussed the advantages of using phages as well as the challenges they face, especially given their prevalent application in food safety.

Abstract
Over the past-decade, agricultural products (such as vegetables and fruits) have been reported as the major vehicles for foodborne diseases, which are limiting food resources. The spread of infectious diseases due to foodborne pathogens poses a global threat to human health and the economy. The accurate and timely detection of infectious disease and of causative pathogens is crucial in the prevention and treatment of disease. Negligence in the detection of pathogenic substances can be catastrophic and lead to a pandemic. Despite the revolution in health diagnostics, much attention has been paid to the agro-food sector regarding the detection of food contaminants (such as pathogens). The conventional analytical techniques for pathogen detection are reliable and still in operation. However, laborious procedures and time-consuming detection via these approaches emphasize the need for simple, easy-to-use, and affordable detection techniques. The rapid detection of pathogens from food is essential to avoid the morbidity and mortality originating from the suboptimal nature of empiric pathogen treatment. This review critically discusses both the conventional and emerging bio-molecular approaches for pathogen detection in agro-food.

Abstract
Microviscosity has a strong impact for diffusion-controlled processes in biological environments. BODIPY molecular rotors are viscosity-sensitive fluorophores that provide a simple and non-invasive way to visualise microviscosity. Although green fluorescent probes are already well developed for imaging, thick biological samples require longer wavelengths for investigation. This work focuses on the examination of novelβ-substitutedmeso-phenyl-BODIPYs possessing a red emission. We report a new red fluorescent BODIPY-based probe BP-Vinyl-NO2suitable for sensing microviscosity in rigid environments of over 100 000 cP viscosities. Furthermore, we demonstrate that changing the methyl position fromorthotometaon theβ-phenyl-substituted conjugate BP-PH-m2M-NO2redshifts absorbance and fluorescence spectra while maintaining viscosity sensitivity. Finally, we show that nitro-substitution ofmeso-phenyl is a versatile approach to improve the sensitivity to viscosity while suppressing sensitivity to polarity and temperature of such derivatives. In summary, we present two nitro-substituted red fluorescent probes that could be used as lifetime-based microviscosity sensors.

Abstract
Although boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-based metallacycles are expected to be promising candidates for imaging probes and therapeutic agents, their biomedical applications are restricted by their short absorption/emission wavelengths. In this work, we report a rhombic metallacycle M with broad absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) range and emissions at wavelengths >800 nm, which exhibits an efficient photothermal conversion capacity. Metallacycle M was encapsulated via Pluronic F127 to fit the biotic environment, resulting in the generation of F127/M nanoparticles (NPs) with high hydrophilicity and biocompatibility. In vitro studies demonstrated that the F127/M NPs underwent efficient cellular uptake and exhibited satisfactory photothermal therapeutic activity. Furthermore, in vivo experiments revealed that tumor growth was effectively inhibited, and the degree of undesirable biological damage was minimal in treatment with F127/M NPs and laser irradiation. Finally, the F127/M NPs could be visualized through NIR fluorescence imaging in living mice, thereby allowing their distribution to be monitored in order to enhance treatment accuracy during photothermal therapy. We envision that such BODIPY-based metallacycles will provide emerging opportunities for the development of novel therapeutic agents for biomedical applications.
