Abstract
Nanoparticle (NP) surface functionalization with proteins, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), mAb fragments, and various peptides, has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance tumor targeting specificity and immune cell interaction. However, these methods often rely on complex chemistry and suffer from batch-dependent outcomes, primarily due to limited control over the protein orientation and quantity on NP surfaces. To address these challenges, a novel approach based on the supramolecular assembly of two peptides is presented to create a heterotetramer displaying VH Hs on NP surfaces. This approach effectively targets both tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) and immune cell-associated antigens. In vitro experiments showcase its versatility, as various NP types are biofunctionalized, including liposomes, PLGA NPs, and ultrasmall silica-based NPs, and the VH Hs targeting of known TAAs (HER2 for breast cancer, CD38 for multiple myeloma), and an immune cell antigen (NKG2D for natural killer (NK) cells) is evaluated. In in vivo studies using a HER2+ breast cancer mouse model, the approach demonstrates enhanced tumor uptake, retention, and penetration compared to the behavior of nontargeted analogs, affirming its potential for diverse applications.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes for sensing fundamental properties of biomolecular environment, such as polarity and hydration, help to study assembly of lipids into biomembranes, sensing interactions of biomolecules and imaging physiological state of the cells. Here, we summarize major efforts in the development of probes based on two photophysical mechanisms: (i) an excited-state intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), which is represented by fluorescent solvatochromic dyes that shift their emission band maximum as a function of environment polarity and hydration; (ii) excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), with particular focus on 5-membered cyclic systems, represented by 3-hydroxyflavones, because they exhibit dual emission sensitive to the environment. For both ICT and ESIPT dyes, the design of the probes and their biological applications are summarized. Thus, dyes bearing amphiphilic anchors target lipid membranes and report their lipid organization, while targeting ligands direct them to specific organelles for sensing their local environment. The labels, amino acid and nucleic acid analogues inserted into biomolecules enable monitoring their interactions with membranes, proteins and nucleic acids. While ICT probes are relatively simple and robust environment-sensitive probes, ESIPT probes feature high information content due their dual emission. They constitute a powerful toolbox for addressing multitude of biological questions.

Abstract
Polymer nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with drugs and contrast agents have become key tools in the advancement of nanomedicine, requiring robust technologies for their synthesis. Nanoprecipitation is a particularly interesting technique for the assembly of loaded polymer NPs, which is well-known to proceed under kinetic control, with a strong influence of the assembly conditions. On the other hand, the nature of the used polymer also influences the outcome of nanoprecipitation. Here, we investigated systematically the relative effects of mixing of the organic and aqueous phases and polymer chemistry on the formation of polymer nanocarriers. For this, two mixing schemes, manual mixing and microfluidic mixing using an impact-jet micromixer, were first evaluated, showing mixing times of several tens of milliseconds and a few milliseconds, respectively. Copolymers of ethyl methacrylate with charged and hydrophilic groups and different polyesters (poly(d-l-lactide-co-glycolide) and poly(lactic acid)) were combined with a fluorescent dye salt and tested for particle assembly using these "slow" and "fast" mixing methods. Our results showed that in the case of the most hydrophobic polymers, the speed of mixing had no significant influence on the size and loading of the formed NPs. In contrast, in the case of less hydrophobic polymers, faster mixing led to smaller NPs with better encapsulation. The switch between mixing and polymer-controlled assembly was directly correlated to the solubility limit of the polymers in acetonitrile-water mixtures, with a critical point for solubility limits between 15 and 20 vol % of water. Our results provide simple guidelines on how to evaluate the possible influence of polymer chemistry and mixing on the formation of loaded NPs, opening the way to fine-tune their properties and optimize their large-scale production.

Abstract
Brightness is a fundamental property of fluorescent nanomaterials reflecting their capacity to absorb and emit light. In sensing materials, brightness is crucial for high-sensitivity (bio)molecular detection, while in optical bioimaging it ensures high spatial and temporal resolution. Fluorescent organic nanoparticles (NPs) are particularly attractive because of their superior brightness compared to organic dyes. With the ever-growing diversity of organic nanomaterials, it is important to establish universal principles for measuring and estimating their brightness. This tutorial review provides definitions of brightness and describes the major approaches to its analysis based on ensemble and single-particle techniques. We present the current chemical approaches to fight Aggregation-Caused Quenching (ACQ) of fluorophores, which is a major challenge in the design of bright organic nanomaterials. The main classes of fluorescent organic NPs are described, including conjugated polymer NPs, aggregation-induced emission NPs, and NPs based on neutral and ionic dyes. Their brightness and other properties are systematically compared. Some brightest examples of bulk solid-state emissive organic materials are also mentioned. Finally, we analyse the importance of brightness and other particle properties in biological applications, such as bioimaging and biosensing. This tutorial will provide guidelines for chemists on the design of fluorescent organic NPs with improved performance and help them to estimate and compare the brightness of new nanomaterials with literature reports. Moreover, it will help biologists to select appropriate materials for sensing and imaging applications.

Abstract
The aggregation in a solution of charged dyes such as Rhodamine B (RB) is significantly affected by the type of counterion, which can determine the self-assembled structure that in turn modulates the optical properties. RB aggregation can be boosted by hydrophobic and bulky fluorinated tetraphenylborate counterions, such as F5TPB, with the formation of nanoparticles whose fluorescence quantum yield (FQY) is affected by the degree of fluorination. Here, we developed a classical force field (FF) based on the standard generalized Amber parameters that allows modeling the self-assembling process of RB/F5TPB systems in water, consistent with experimental evidence. Namely, the classical MD simulations employing the re-parametrized FF reproduce the formation of nanoparticles in the RB/F5TPB system, while in the presence of iodide counterions, only RB dimeric species can be formed. Within the large, self-assembled RB/F5TPB aggregates, the occurrence of an H-type RB-RB dimer can be observed, a species that is expected to quench RB fluorescence, in agreement with the experimental data of FQY. The outcome provides atomistic details on the role of the bulky F5TPB counterion as a spacer, with the developed classical FF representing a step towards reliable modeling of dye aggregation in RB-based materials.

Abstract
A variety of protein tags are available for genetically encoded protein labeling, which allow their precise localization and tracking inside the cells. A new dimension in protein imaging can be offered by combining protein tags with polarity-sensitive fluorescent probes, which provide information about local nanoscale environments of target proteins within the subcellular compartments (organelles). Here, we designed three fluorescent probes based on solvatochromic nile red dye, conjugated to a HaloTag reactive targeting group through polyethylene glycol linkers of varying lengths. The probe with medium linker length, NR12-Halo, was found to label specifically a large variety of proteins localized in defined cell compartments, such as plasma membranes (outer and inner leaflets), endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, cytosol, microtubules, actin, and chromatin. Owing to its polarity-sensitive fluorophore, the probe clearly distinguished the proteins localized within apolar lipid membranes from other proteins. Moreover, it revealed dramatic changes in the environment during the life cycle of proteins from biosynthesis to their expected localization and, finally, to recycling inside lysosomes. Heterogeneity in the local polarity of some membrane proteins also suggested a formation of low-polar protein aggregates, for example, within cell-cell contacts. The approach also showed that mechanical stress (cell shrinking by osmotic shock) induced a general polarity decrease in membrane proteins, probably due to the condensation of biomolecules. Finally, the nanoenvironment of some membrane proteins was affected by a polyunsaturated fatty acid diet, which provided the bridge between organization of lipids and proteins. The developed solvatochromic HaloTag probe constitutes a promising tool for probing nanoscale environments of proteins and their interactions within subcellular structures.

Abstract
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is essential in optical materials for light-harvesting, photovoltaics and biosensing, but its operating range is fundamentally limited by the Förster radius of ∼5 nm. Here, FRET between fluorescent organic nanoparticles (NPs) is studied for the first time in order to break this limit. The donor and acceptor NPs are built from charged hydrophobic polymers loaded with cationic dyes and bulky hydrophobic counterions. Their surface is functionalized with DNA in order to control surface-to-surface distance. It is found that the FRET efficiency does not follow the canonic Förster law, reaching 0.70 and 0.45 values for NP-NP distance of 15 and 20 nm, respectively. This corresponds to the FRET efficiency decay as power four of the surface-to-surface NP-NP distance. Based on this long-distance FRET, a DNA nanoprobe is developed, where a target DNA fragment, encoding cancer marker survivin, brings together donor and acceptor NPs at ∼15 nm distance. In this nanoprobe, a single molecular recognition results in unprecedented color switch for >5000 dyes, yielding a simple and fast assay with 18 attomoles limit of detection. Breaking the Förster distance limit for ultrabright NPs opens the route to advanced optical nanomaterials for amplified FRET-based sensing of biomolecules. This article is protected by copyright.

Abstract
The performance of fluorescence immunostaining is physically limited by the brightness of organic dyes, whereas fluorescence labeling with multiple dyes per antibody can lead to dye self-quenching. The present work reports a methodology of antibody labeling by biotinylated zwitterionic dye-loaded polymeric nanoparticles (NPs). A rationally designed hydrophobic polymer, poly(ethyl methacrylate) bearing charged, zwitterionic and biotin groups (PEMA-ZI-biotin), enables preparation of small (14 nm) and bright fluorescent biotinylated NPs loaded with large quantities of cationic rhodamine dye with bulky hydrophobic counterion (fluorinated tetraphenylborate). The biotin exposure at the particle surface is confirmed by Förster resonance energy transfer with dye-streptavidin conjugate. Single-particle microscopy validates specific binding to biotinylated surfaces, with particle brightness 21-fold higher than quantum dot-585 (QD-585) at 550 nm excitation. The nanoimmunostaining method, which couples biotinylated antibody (cetuximab) with bright biotinylated zwitterionic NPs through streptavidin, significantly improves fluorescence imaging of target epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) on the cell surface compared to a dye-based labeling. Importantly, cetuximab labeled with PEMA-ZI-biotin NPs can differentiate cells with distinct expression levels of EGFR cancer marker. The developed nanoprobes can greatly amplify the signal from labeled antibodies, and thus become a useful tool in the high-sensitivity detection of disease biomarkers.

Abstract
Dual-emissive photoconvertible fluorophores (DPCFs) are powerful tools to unambiguously track labeled cells in bioimaging. We recently introduced a new rational mechanism called directed photooxidation-induced conversion (DPIC) enabling efficient DPCFs to be obtained by conjugating a coumarin to aromatic singlet-oxygen reactive moieties (ASORMs). Pyrrole was found to be a suitable ASORM as it provided a high hypsochromic shift along with a fast and efficient conversion. By synthesizing various pyrrole-based styryl coumarin dyes, we showed that the photoconversion properties, including the quantum yield of photoconversion and the chemical yield of conversion can be tuned by chemical modification of the pyrrole. These modifications led to an improved dual emissive converter, SCP-Boc, which displayed a high brightness and an enhanced photoconversion yield of 63 %. SCP-Boc was successfully used to sequentially photoconvert cells by laser scanning confocal microscopy.

Abstract
We herein present a new concept to produce dual-color photoconvertible probes based on a mechanism called Directed Photooxidation Induced Conversion (DPIC). As a support of this mechanism, styryl-coumarins (SCs) bearing Aromatic Singlet Oxygen Reactive Moieties (ASORMs) like furan and pyrrole have been synthesized. SCs are bright fluorophores, which undergo a hypsochromic conversion upon visible light irradiation due to directed photooxidation of the ASORM that leads to the disruption of conjugation. SC-P, a yellow emitting probe bearing a pyrrole moiety, converts to a stable blue emitting coumarin with a 68 nm shift allowing the photoconversion and tracking of lipid droplet in live cells. This new approach might pave the way to a new generation of photoconvertible dyes for advanced bioimaging applications.

Abstract
Current biomedical applications of nanocarriers are focused on drug delivery, where encapsulated cargo is released in the target tissues under the control of external stimuli. Here, we propose a very different approach, where the active toxic molecules are removed from biological tissues by the nanocarrier. It is based on the drug-sponge concept, where specific molecules are captured by the lipid nanoemulsion (NE) droplets due to dynamic covalent chemistry inside their oil core. To this end, we designed a highly lipophilic amine (LipoAmine) capable of reacting with a free cargo-aldehyde (fluorescent dye and 4-hydroxynonenal toxin) directly inside lipid NEs, yielding a lipophilic imine conjugate well encapsulated in the oil core. The formation of imine bonds was first validated using a push-pull pyrene aldehyde dye, which changes its emission color during the reaction. The conjugate formation was independently confirmed by mass spectrometry. As a result, LipoAmine-loaded NEs spontaneously loaded cargo-aldehydes, yielding formulations stable against leakage at pH 7.4, which can further release the cargo in a low pH range (4-6) in solutions and living cells. Using fluorescence microscopy, we showed that LipoAmine NEs can extract pyrene aldehyde dye from cells as well as from an epithelial tissue (chicken skin). Moreover, successful extraction from cells was also achieved for a highly toxic aliphatic aldehyde 4-hydroxynonenal, which allowed obtaining the proof of concept for detoxification of living cells. Taken together, these results show that the dynamic imine chemistry inside NEs can be used to develop detoxification platforms.

Abstract
In this study, we explored how chemical reactions of amphiphile compounds can be characterized and followed-up on model interfaces. A custom-made surfactant containing three alkyne sites was first adsorbed and characterized at a water/oil interface. These amphiphiles then underwent interfacial crosslinking by click chemistry upon the addition of a second reactive agent. The monolayer properties and dilatational elasticity, were compared before and after the polymerization. Using bulk phase exchange, the composition of the aqueous bulk phase was finely controlled and washed to specifically measure the interfacial effects of the entities adsorbed and trapped at the interface. In this study, we aim to emphasize an original experimental approach to follow complex phenomena occurring on model interfaces, and also show the potential of this method to characterize multifactorial processes.

Abstract
Biomembranes are ubiquitous lipid structures that delimit the cell surface and organelles and operate as platforms for a multitude of biomolecular processes. The development of chemical tools─fluorescent probes─for the sensing and imaging of biomembranes is a rapidly growing research direction, stimulated by a high demand from cell biologists and biophysicists. This Account focuses on advances in these smart molecules, providing a voyage from the cell frontier─plasma membranes (PM)─toward intracellular membrane compartments─organelles. General classification of the membrane probes can be based on targeting principles, sensing profile, and optical response. Probes for PM and organelle membranes are designed based on multiple targeting principles: conjugation with natural lipids or synthetic targeting ligands and in situ cell labeling by bio-orthogonal chemistry, conjugation to protein tags, and receptor-ligand interactions. Thus, to obtain membrane probes targeting PM with selectivity to one leaflet, we designed membrane anchor ligands based on a charged group and an alkyl chain. According to the sensing profile, we define basic membrane markers with constant emission and probes for biophysical and chemical sensing. The markers are built from classical fluorophores, exemplified by a series of bright cyanines and BODIPY dyes bearing the PM anchors (MemBright). Membrane probes for biophysical sensing are based on environment-sensitive fluorophores: (1) polarity-sensitive solvatochromic dyes; (2) viscosity-sensitive fluorescent molecular rotors; (3) mechanosensitive fluorescent flippers; and (4) voltage-sensitive electrochromic dyes. Our solvatochromic probes based on Nile Red (NR12S, NR12A, NR4A), Laurdan (Pro12A), and 3-hydroxyflavone (F2N12S) through polarity-sensing can visualize liquid ordered and disordered phases of lipid membranes, sense lipid order and its heterogeneity in cell PM, detect apoptosis, etc. Chemically sensitive probes, combining a dye, membrane-targeting ligand, and molecular recognition unit, enable the detection of pH, ions, redox species, lipids, and proteins at the biomembrane surface. In terms of the optical response profile, we can identify (1) fluorogenic (turn-on) probes, allowing background-free imaging; (2) ratiometric probes, e.g., solvatochromic probes, which enable ratiometric imaging by changing their emission/excitation color; (3) fluorescence lifetime-responsive probes, e.g., fluorescence molecular rotors and flippers, suitable for fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM); and (4) switchable probes, important for single-molecule localization microscopy. We showed that combining solvatochromic probes with on-off switching through a reversible binding specifically to cell PM enables the mapping of their biophysical properties with superior resolution. While the majority of efforts have been focused on PM, the probes for cellular organelles, such as endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, etc., emerge rapidly. Thus, nontargeted solvatochromic probes can distinguish organelles by the emission color. Targeted solvatochromic probes based on Nile Red revealed unique signatures of polarity and lipid order of individual organelles and their different sensitivities to oxidative or mechanical stress. Lipid droplets, which are membraneless lipidic structures, constitute another interesting organelle target for probing the cell stress. Currently, we stand at the beginning of a long route with big challenges ahead, in particular (1) to achieve superior organelle specificity; (2) to label specific biomembrane leaflets, notably the inner leaflet of PM; (3) to detect lipid organization in a proximity of specific proteins; and (4) to probe biomembranes in tissues and animals.

Abstract
The polarity of the biological membrane, or lipid order, regulates many cellular events. It is generally believed that the plasma membrane polarity is regulated according to cell type and function, sometimes even within a cell. Neurons have a variety of functionally specialized subregions, each of which bears distinct proteins and lipids, and the membrane polarity of the subregions may differ accordingly. However, no direct experimental evidence of it has been presented to date. In the present study, we used a cell-impermeable solvatochromic membrane probe NR12A to investigate the local polarity of the plasma membrane of neurons. Both in hippocampal and cerebellar granule neurons, growth cones have higher membrane polarity than the cell body. In addition, the overall variation in the polarity value of each pixel was greater in the growth cone than in cell bodies, suggesting that the lateral diffusion and/or dynamics of the growth cone membrane are greater than other parts of the neuron. These tendencies were much less notably observed in the lamellipodia of a non-neuronal cell. Our results suggest that the membrane polarity of neuronal growth cones is unique and this characteristic may be important for its structure and function.

Abstract
Polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) are extremely promising for theranostic applications. However, their interest depends largely on their interactions with immune system, including the capacity to activate inflammation after their capture by macrophages. In the present study, we generated monodisperse poly(ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA) NPs loaded with hydrophobic photoluminescent gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) emitting in the NIR-II optical windows and studied their interaction in vitro with J774.1A macrophages. PEMA NPs showed an efficient time and dose dependent cellular uptake with up to 70 % of macrophages labelled in 24 h without detectable cell death. Interestingly, PEMA and Au-PEMA NPs induced an anti-inflammatory response and a strong down-regulation of nitric oxide level on lipopolysacharides (LPS) activated macrophages, but without influence on the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These polymeric NPs may thus present a potential interest for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Shape-persistent macrocycles enable superior control on molecular self-assembly, allowing the preparation of well-defined nanostructures with new functions. Here, we report on anionic amphiphilic calixarenes of conic shape and their self-assembly behavior in aqueous media for application in intracellular delivery of peptides. Newly synthesized calixarenes bearing four phosphonate groups and two or four long alkyl chains were found to form micelles of ∼ 10 nm diameter, in contrast to an analogue with short alkyl chains. These amphiphilic calixarenes are able to complex model (oligo-lysine) and biologically relevant (HIV-1 nucleocapsid peptide) cationic peptides into small nanoparticles (20-40 nm). By contrast, a control anionic calixarene with short alkyl chains fails to form small nanoparticles with peptides, highlighting the importance of micellar assembly of amphiphilic calixarenes for peptide complexation. Cellular studies reveal that anionic amphiphilic calixarenes exhibit low cytotoxicity and enable internalization of fluorescently labelled peptides into live cells. These findings suggest anionic amphiphilic macrocycles as promising building blocks for the preparation of peptide delivery vehicles.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary bone cancer, where the overall 5-year surviving rate is below 20% in resistant forms. Accelerating cures for those poor outcome patients remains a challenge. Nevertheless, several studies of agents targeting abnormal cancerous pathways have yielded disappointing results when translated into clinic because of the lack of accurate OS preclinical modeling. So, any effort to design preclinical drug testing may consider all inter-, intra-, and extra-tumoral heterogeneities throughout models mimicking extracellular and immune microenvironment. Therefore, the bioengineering of patient-derived models reproducing the OS heterogeneity, the interaction with tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), and the modulation of oxygen concentrations additionally to recreation of bone scaffold is proposed here. Eight 2D preclinical models mimicking several OS clinical situations and their TAMs in hypoxic conditions are developed first and, subsequently, the paired 3D models faithfully preserving histological and biological characteristics are generated. It is possible to shape reproducibly M2-like macrophages cultured with all OS patient-derived cell lines in both dimensions. The final 3D models pooling all heterogeneity features are providing accurate proliferation and migration data to understand the mechanisms involved in OS and immune cells/biomatrix interactions and sustained such that engineered 3D preclinical systems will improve personalized medicine.

Abstract
Super-resolution fluorescence imaging based on single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) enables visualizing cellular structures with nanometric precision. However, its spatial and temporal resolution largely relies on the brightness of ON/OFF switchable fluorescent dyes. Moreover, in cell plasma membranes, the single-molecule localization is hampered by the fast lateral diffusion of membrane probes. Here, to address these two fundamental problems, we propose a concept of ON/OFF switchable probes for SMLM (points accumulation for imaging in nanoscale topography, PAINT) based on fluorogenic dimers of bright cyanine dyes. In these probes, the two cyanine units connected with a linker were modified at their extremities with low-affinity membrane anchors. Being self-quenched in water due to intramolecular dye H-aggregation, they displayed light up on reversible binding to lipid membranes. The charged group in the linker further decreased the probe affinity to the lipid membranes, thus accelerating its dynamic reversible ON/OFF switching. The concept was validated on cyanines 3 and 5. SMLM of live cells revealed that the new probes provided higher brightness and ∼10-fold slower diffusion at the cell surface, compared to reference probes Nile Red and DiD, which boosted axial localization precision >3-fold down to 31 nm. The new probe allowed unprecedented observation of nanoscale fibrous protrusions on plasma membranes of live cells with 40 s time resolution, revealing their fast dynamics. Thus, going beyond the brightness limit of single switchable dyes by cooperative dequenching in fluorogenic dimers and slowing down probe diffusion in biomembranes open the route to significant enhancement of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy of live cells.

Abstract
Sphingomyelin is a dominant sphingolipid in mammalian cells. Its production in the trans-Golgi traps cholesterol synthesized in the ER to promote formation of a sphingomyelin/sterol gradient along the secretory pathway. This gradient marks a fundamental transition in physical membrane properties that help specify organelle identify and function. We previously identified mutations in sphingomyelin synthase SMS2 that cause osteoporosis and skeletal dysplasia. Here, we show that SMS2 variants linked to the most severe bone phenotypes retain full enzymatic activity but fail to leave the ER owing to a defective autonomous ER export signal. Cells harboring pathogenic SMS2 variants accumulate sphingomyelin in the ER and display a disrupted transbilayer sphingomyelin asymmetry. These aberrant sphingomyelin distributions also occur in patient-derived fibroblasts and are accompanied by imbalances in cholesterol organization, glycerophospholipid profiles, and lipid order in the secretory pathway. We postulate that pathogenic SMS2 variants undermine the capacity of osteogenic cells to uphold nonrandom lipid distributions that are critical for their bone forming activity.

Abstract
Over the last decade fluorescence-guided surgery has been primarily focused on the NIR-I window. However, the NIR-I window has constraints, such as limited penetration and scattering. Consequently, exploring the performance of NIR-I dyes at longer wavelengths (i.e., the NIR-II window) is crucial to expanding its application. Two fluorophores were used in three pigs to identify the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) using two commercially available NIR-I and NIR-II cameras. The near-infrared coating of equipment (NICE) was used to identify endoluminal surgical catheters and indocyanine green (ICG) for common bile duct (CBD) characterization. The NIR-II window evaluation showed an MFI of 0.4 arbitrary units (a.u.) ± 0.106 a.u. in small bowel NICE-coated catheters and an MFI of 0.09 a.u. ± 0.039 a.u. in gastric ones. In CBD characterization, the ICG MFI was 0.12 a.u. ± 0.027 a.u., 0.18 a.u. ± 0.100 a.u., and 0.22 a.u. ± 0.041 a.u. at 5, 35, and 65 min, respectively. This in vivo imaging evaluation of NIR-I dyes confirms its application in the NIR-II domain. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study assessing the MIF of NICE in the NIR-II window using a commercially available system. Further comparative trials are necessary to determine the superiority of NIR-II imaging systems.

Abstract
Nanoprecipitation is a facile and efficient approach to the assembly of loaded polymer nanoparticles (NPs) for applications in bioimaging and targeted drug delivery. Their successful use in clinics requires reproducible and scalable synthesis, for which microfluidics appears as an attractive technique. However, in the case of nanoprecipitation, particle formation depends strongly on mixing. Here, we compare 5 different types of microfluidic mixers with respect to the formation and properties of poly(d-l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and poly(methyl methacrylate) NPs loaded with a fluorescent dye salt: a cross-shaped mixer, a multilamination mixer, a split and recombine mixer, two herringbone mixers, and two impact jet mixers. Size and fluorescence properties of the NPs obtained with these mixers are evaluated. All mixers, except the cross-shaped one, yield NPs at least as small and fluorescent as those obtained manually. Notably in the case of impact jet mixers operated at high flow speeds, the size of the NPs could be strongly reduced from >50 nm down to <20 nm. Surprisingly, the fluorescence quantum yield of NPs obtained with these mixers also depends strongly on the flow speed, increasing, in the case of PLGA, from 30 to >70%. These results show the importance of precisely controlling the assembly conditions for loaded polymer NPs. The present work further provides guidance for choosing the optimal microfluidic setup for production of nanomaterials for biomedical applications.

Abstract
With the growing interest in the understanding of the importance of RNAs in health and disease, detection of RNAs in living cells is of high importance. Fluorogenic dyes that light up specifically selected RNA aptamers constitute an attractive direction in the design of RNA imaging probes. In this work, based on our recently proposed concept of a fluorogenic dimer, we aim to develop a robust molecular tool for intracellular RNA imaging. We rationally designed a fluorogenic self-quenched dimer (orange Gemini, o-Gemini) based on rhodamine and evaluated its capacity to light up its cognate aptamer o-Coral in solution and live cells. We found that the removal of biotin from the dimer slightly improved the fluorogenic response without losing the affinity to the cognate aptamer (o-Coral). On the other hand, replacing sulforhodamine with a carboxyrhodamine produced drastic improvement of the affinity and the turn-on response to o-Coral and, thus, a better limit of detection. In live cells expressing o-Coral-tagged RNAs, the carboxyrhodamine analogue of o-Gemini without a biotin unit displayed a higher signal as well as faster internalization into the cells. We suppose that less hydrophilic carboxyrhodamine compared to sulforhodamine can more readily penetrate through the cell plasma membrane and, together with its higher affinity to o-Coral, provide the observed improvement in the imaging experiments. The promiscuity of the o-Coral RNA aptamer to the fluorogenic dimer allowed us to tune a fluorogen chemical structure and thus drastically improve the fluorescence response of the probe to o-Coral-tagged RNAs.

Abstract
Tracking the pH variation of intracellular vesicles throughout the endocytosis pathway is of prior importance to better assess the cell trafficking and metabolism of cells. Small molecular fluorescent pH probes are valuable tools in bioimaging but are generally not targeted to intracellular vesicles or are directly targeted to acidic lysosomes, thus not allowing the dynamic observation of the vesicular acidification. Herein, we designed Mem-pH, a fluorogenic ratiometric pH probe based on chromenoquinoline with appealing photophysical properties, which targets the plasma membrane (PM) of cells and further accumulates in the intracellular vesicles by endocytosis. The exposition of Mem-pH toward the vesicle's lumen allowed to monitor the acidification of the vesicles throughout the endocytic pathway and enabled the measurement of their pH via ratiometric imaging.

Abstract
Organelle-specific targeting enables increasing the therapeutic index of drugs and localizing probes for better visualization of cellular processes. Current targeting strategies require conjugation of a molecule of interest with organelle-targeting ligands. Here, we propose a concept of dynamic covalent targeting of organelles where the molecule is conjugated with its ligand directly inside live cells through a dynamic covalent bond. For this purpose, we prepared a series of organelle-targeting ligands with a hydrazide residue for reacting with dyes and drugs bearing a ketone group. We show that dynamic hydrazone bond can be formed between these hydrazide ligands and a ketone-functionalized Nile Red dye (NRK) in situ in model lipid membranes or nanoemulsion droplets. Fluorescence imaging in live cells reveals that the targeting hydrazide ligands can induce preferential localization of NRK dye and an anti-cancer drug doxorubicin in plasma membranes, mitochondria and lipid droplets. Thus, with help of the dynamic covalent targeting, it becomes possible to direct a given bioactive molecule to any desired organelle inside the cell without its initial functionalization by the targeting ligand. Localizing the same NRK dye in different organelles by the hydrazide ligands is found to affect drastically its photodynamic activity, with the most pronounced phototoxic effects in mitochondria and plasma membranes. The capacity of this approach to tune biological activity of molecules can improve efficacy of drugs and help to understand better their intracellular mechanisms.

Abstract
Detection and imaging of RNA at the single-cell level is of utmost importance for fundamental research and clinical diagnostics. Current techniques of RNA analysis, including fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), are long, complex, and expensive. Here, we report a methodology of amplified FISH (AmpliFISH) that enables simpler and faster RNA imaging using small and ultrabright dye-loaded polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with DNA. We found that the small size of NPs (below 20 nm) was essential for their access to the intracellular mRNA targets in fixed permeabilized cells. Moreover, proper selection of the polymer matrix of DNA-NPs minimized nonspecific intracellular interactions. Optimized DNA-NPs enabled sequence-specific imaging of different mRNA targets (survivin, actin, and polyA tails), using a simple 1 h staining protocol. Encapsulation of cyanine and rhodamine dyes with bulky counterions yielded green-, red-, and far-red-emitting NPs that were 2-100-fold brighter than corresponding quantum dots. These NPs enabled multiplexed detection of three mRNA targets simultaneously, showing distinctive mRNA expression profiles in three cancer cell lines. Image analysis confirmed the single-particle nature of the intracellular signal, suggesting single-molecule sensitivity of the method. AmpliFISH was found to be semiquantitative, correlating with RT-qPCR. In comparison with the commercial locked nucleic acid (LNA)-based FISH technique, AmpliFISH provides 8-200-fold stronger signal (dependent on the NP color) and requires only three steps vs ∼20 steps together with a much shorter time. Thus, combination of bright fluorescent polymeric NPs with FISH yields a fast and sensitive single-cell transcriptomic analysis method for RNA research and clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) are highly attractive for biomedical applications due to their potential biodegradability and capacity to encapsulate different loads, notably drugs and contrast agents. For in vivo optical bioimaging, NPs should operate in the near-infrared region (NIR) and exhibit stealth properties. In the present work, we applied the approach of ionic dye insulation with bulky hydrophobic counterions for encapsulation of near-infrared cyanine dyes (Cy5.5 and Cy7 bearing two octadecyl chains) into biodegradable polymer (PLGA) NPs. We found that at high dye loading (20-50 mM with respect to the polymer), the bulkiest fluorinated tetraphenylborate counterion minimized best the aggregation-caused quenching and improved fluorescence quantum yields of both NIR dyes, especially of Cy5.5. In addition, bulky counterions also enabled formation of small 40 nm polymeric NPs in contrast to smaller counterions. To provide them stealth properties, we prepared 40 nm dye-loaded PEGylated NPs through nanoprecipitation of synthetic PLGA-PEG block copolymer with the dye/counterion salt. The obtained NIR NPs loaded with Cy5.5 dye salt allowed in vivo imaging of wild-type mice with a good contrast after IV injection. Compared to the bare PLGA NPs, PLGA-PEG NPs exhibited significantly slower accumulation in the liver. Biodistribution studies confirmed the preferential accumulation in the liver, although PLGA and PLGA-PEG NPs could also be distributed in other organs, with the following tendency: liver > spleen > lungs > kidney > heart > testis > brain. Overall, the present work validated the counterion approach for encapsulation of NIR cyanine dyes into biodegradable polymer NPs bearing covalently attached PEG shell. Thus, we propose a simple and robust methodology for preparation of NIR fluorescent biodegradable polymer NPs, which could further improve the existing optical imaging for biomedical applications.

Abstract
The potential of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) to design nanoparticles (NPs) and target the central nervous system remains to be exploited. In the current study we designed fluorescent 70-nm PLGA NPs, loaded with bulky fluorophores, thereby making them significantly brighter than quantum dots in single-particle fluorescence measurements. The high brightness of NPs enabled their visualization by intravital real-time 2-photon microscopy. Subsequently, we found that PLGA NPs coated with pluronic F-68 circulated in the blood substantially longer than uncoated NPs and were taken up by cerebro-vascular endothelial cells. Additionally, confocal microscopy revealed that coated PLGA NPs were present in late endothelial endosomes of cerebral vessels within 1 h after systemic injection and were more readily taken up by endothelial cells in peripheral organs. The combination of ultra-bright NPs and in vivo imaging may thus represent a promising approach to reduce the gap between development and clinical application of nanoparticle-based drug carriers.

Abstract
Understanding the plasma membrane nanoscale organization and dynamics in living cells requires microscopy techniques with high spatial and temporal resolution that permit for long acquisition times and allow for the quantification of membrane biophysical properties, such as lipid ordering. Among the most popular super-resolution techniques, stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy offers one of the highest temporal resolutions, ultimately defined by the scanning speed. However, monitoring live processes using STED microscopy is significantly limited by photobleaching, which recently has been circumvented by exchangeable membrane dyes that only temporarily reside in the membrane. Here, we show that NR4A, a polarity-sensitive exchangeable plasma membrane probe based on Nile red, permits the super-resolved quantification of membrane biophysical parameters in real time with high temporal and spatial resolution as well as long acquisition times. The potential of this polarity-sensitive exchangeable dye is showcased by live-cell real-time three-dimensional STED recordings of bleb formation and lipid exchange during membrane fusion as well as by STED-fluorescence correlation spectroscopy experiments for the simultaneous quantification of membrane dynamics and lipid packing that correlate in model and live-cell membranes.

Abstract
Plasma membrane (PM) is the turntable of various reactions that regulate essential functionalities of cells. Among these reactions, the thiol disulfide exchange (TDE) reaction plays an important role in cellular processes. We herein designed a selective probe, called membrane reduction probe (MRP), that is able to report TDE activity at the PM. MRP is based on a green emitting BODIPY PM probe connected to rhodamine through a disulfide bond. MRP is fluorogenic as it is turned off in aqueous media due to aggregation-caused quenching, and once inserted in the PM, it displays a bright red signal due to an efficient fluorescence energy resonance transfer (FRET) between the BODIPY donor and the rhodamine acceptor. In the PM model, the MRP can undergo TDE reaction with external reductive agents as well as with thiolated lipids embedded in the bilayer. Upon TDE reaction, the FRET is turned off and a bright green signal appears allowing a ratiometric readout of this reaction. In cells, the MRP quickly labeled the PM and was able to probe variations of TDE activity using ratiometric imaging. With this tool in hand, we were able to monitor variations of TDE activity at the PM under stress conditions, and we showed that cancer cell lines presented a reduced TDE activity at the PM compared to noncancer cells.

Abstract
Probing receptors at the cell surface to monitor their expression level can be performed with fluorogenic dyes. Biotin receptors (BRs) are particularly interesting as they are overexpressed in cancer cells. Herein, to image BRs, we adapted and systematically compared two fluorogenic systems based on BODIPYs: a molecular rotor and a self-quenched dimer that light up in response to high viscosity and low polarity of the membrane, respectively. The fluorogenic dimer proved to be more efficient than the rotor and allowed BRs to be imaged in cancer cells, which can effectively be discriminated from non-cancer cells.

Abstract
Bulky hydrophobic counterions (weakly coordinating anions) can insulate ionic dyes against aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) and enable preparation of highly fluorescent dye-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) for bioimaging, biosensing and light harvesting. Here, we introduce a family of hydrophobic anions based on fluorinated C-acyl barbiturates with delocalized negative charge and bulky non-polar groups. Similarly to fluorinated tetraphenylborates, these barbiturates prevent ACQ of cationic dye alkyl rhodamine B inside polymer NPs made of biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA). Their efficiency to prevent ACQ increases for analogues with higher acidity and bulkiness. Their structure controls dye-dye communication, yielding bright NPs with on/off switching or stable emission. They enhance dye encapsulation inside NPs, allowing intracellular imaging without dye leakage. Compared to fluorinated tetraphenylborates known as cytotoxic transmembrane ion transporters, the barbiturates display a significantly lower cytotoxicity. These chemically available and versatile barbiturate derivatives are promising counterion scaffolds for preparation of bright non-toxic fluorescent nanomaterials.

Abstract
Solvatochromic dyes have emerged as a new class of fluorescent probes in the field of lipid membranes due to their ability to identify the lipid organization of biomembranes in live cells by changing the color of their fluorescence. This type of solvatochromic function is useful for studying the heterogeneous features of biomembranes caused by the uneven distribution of lipids and cholesterols in live cells and related cellular processes. Therefore, a variety of advanced solvatochromic dyes have been rapidly developed over the last decade. To provide an overview of the works recently developed solvatochromic dyes have enabled, we herein present some solvatochromic dyes, with a particular focus on those based on pyrene and Nile red. As these dyes exhibit preferable photophysical properties in terms of fluorescence microscopy applications and unique distribution/localization in cellular compartments, some have already found applications in cell biological and biophysical studies. The goal of this review is to provide information to researchers who have never used solvatochromic dyes or who have not discovered applications of such dyes in biological studies.

Abstract
Preparation of bright fluorescent materials based on polymers is hampered by a fundamental problem of aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) of encapsulated dyes. Here, ultrabright fluorescent polymeric nanofibers and coatings are prepared based on a concept of ionic dye insulation with bulky hydrophobic counterions that overcomes the ACQ problem. It is found that bulky hydrophobic counterion perfluorinated tetraphenylborate can boost >100-fold the fluorescence quantum yields of cationic dye octadecyl rhodamine B at high loading (30 wt %) in biocompatible poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The concept is applicable to both rhodamine and cyanine dyes, which results in bright fluorescent polymeric materials of four different colors spanning from blue to near-infrared. It allows for preparation of electrospun polymeric nanofibers with >50-fold higher dye loading by mass (30 wt %, >20-fold higher molarity for rhodamine dyes) while preserving good fluorescence quantum yields (31%), which implies drastic improvement in their fluorescence brightness. The counterion-based polymeric materials are also validated as coatings of model medical devices, such as stainless steel fiducials and 3D-printed stents of complex geometry. Spin-coated fluorescent polymeric films loaded with a dye paired with bulky counterions exhibit excellent biocompatibility and low toxicity. Moreover, counterion-modified materials show much better stability against dye leakage in the presence of living cells and a serum-containing medium, compared to materials based on the dye with a small inorganic anion. Overall, by pushing the barriers of ACQ, our counterion approach emerges as a powerful tool to develop ultrabright fluorescent polymeric materials ranging from nano- and macroscale.

X-ray crystallography or NMR allow the fine structural characterization of small RNA (e.g., aptamers) with a precision down to atomic resolution. Yet, these technics are time consuming, laborious and do not inform on mutational robustness and the extent to which a sequence can be modified without altering RNA function, an important set of information to assist RNA engineering. On another hand, thought powerful, in silico predictions still lack the required accuracy. These limitations can be overcome by using high-throughput microfluidic-assisted functional screening technologies, as they allow exploring large mutant libraries in a rapid and cost-effective manner. Among them, we recently introduced the microfluidic-assisted In Vitro Compartmentalization (µIVC), an efficient screening strategy in which reactions are performed in picoliter droplets at rates of several thousand per second. We later improved µIVC efficiency by using in tandem with high throughput sequencing, thought a laborious bioinformatic step was still required at the end of the process. In the present work, we strongly increased the automation level of the pipeline by implementing an artificial neural network enabling unsupervised bioinformatic analysis. We demonstrate the efficiency of this "µIVC-Useq" technology by rapidly identifying a set of sequences readily accepted by a key domain of the light-up RNA aptamer SRB-2. This work not only shed some new light on the way this aptamer can be engineered, but it also allowed us to easily identify new variants with an up-to 10-fold improved performance.

Abstract
Detection of cellular microRNA biomarkers is an emerging powerful tool in cancer diagnostics. Currently, it requires multistep tedious protocols based on molecular amplification of the RNA target, e.g. RT-qPCR. Here, we developed a one-step enzyme-free method for microRNA detection in cellular extracts based on light-harvesting nanoparticle (nanoantenna) biosensors. They amplify the fluorescence signal by effective Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from ultrabright dye-loaded polymeric nanoparticle to a single acceptor and thus convert recognition of one microRNA copy (through nucleic acid strand displacement) into a response of >400 dyes. The developed nanoprobes of 17-19 nm diameter for four microRNAs (miR-21, let-7f, miR-222 and miR-30a) exhibit outstanding brightness (up to 3.8 × 107 M-1cm-1) and ratiometric sequence-specific response to microRNA with the limit of detection (LOD) down to 1.3 pM (21 amol), equivalent to 24 RT-qPCR cycles. They enable quantitative detection of the four microRNAs in RNA extracts from five cancerous cell lines (human breast cancer - T47D and MCF7, head and neck cancer - CAL33 and glioblastoma - LNZ308 and U373) and two non-cancerous ones (Hek293 and MCF10A), in agreement with RT-qPCR. The results confirmed that let-7f and especially miR-21 are systematically overexpressed in all studied cancerous cell lines. These nanoparticle biosensors are compatible with low-cost portable fluorometers and small detection volumes (11 amol LOD), opening a route to rapid point-of-care cancer diagnostics.

Abstract
The local lipid microenvironment of transmembrane receptors is an essential factor in G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling. However, tools are currently missing for studying endogenously expressed GPCRs in primary cells and tissues. Here, we introduce fluorescent environment-sensitive GPCR ligands for probing the microenvironment of the receptor in living cells using fluorescence microscopy under no-wash conditions. We designed and synthesized antagonist ligands of the oxytocin receptor (OTR) by conjugating a high-affinity nonpeptidic OTR ligand PF-3274167 to the environment-sensitive fluorescent dye Nile Red. The length of the polar PEG spacer between the pharmacophore and the fluorophore was adjusted to lower the nonspecific interactions of the probe while preserving a strong fluorogenic response. We demonstrated that the new probes embed into the lipid bilayer in the vicinity of the receptor and convey information about the local polarity and the lipid order via the wavelength-shifting emission of the Nile Red fluorophore.

Abstract
To overcome the limited brightness of existing fluorogenic molecular probes for biomolecular targets, we introduce a concept of fluorogenic dendrimer probe, which undergoes polarity-dependent switching due to intramolecular aggregation-caused quenching of its fluorophores. Based on a rational design of dendrimers with four and eight squaraine dyes, we found that octamer bearing dyes through a sufficiently long PEG(8) linker displays >400-fold fluorescence enhancement from water to non-polar dioxane. High extinction coefficient (≈2,300,000 m-1 cm-1 ) resulted from eight squaraine dyes and quantum yield (≈25 %) make this octamer the brightest environment-sensitive fluorogenic molecule reported to date. Its conjugate with cyclic RGD used at low concentration (3 nm) enables integrin-specific fluorescence imaging of cancer cells with high signal-to-background ratio. The developed dendrimer probe is a "golden middle" between molecular probes and nanoparticles, combining small size, turn-on response and high brightness, important for bioimaging.

Abstract
Among biocompatible materials, block copolymers (BCPs) possess several advantages due to the control of their chemistry and the possibility of combining various blocks with defined properties. Consequently, BCPs drew considerable attention as biocompatible materials in the fields of drug delivery, medicine and bioimaging. Fluorescent labeling of BCPs quickly appeared to be a method of choice to image and track these materials in order to better understand the nature of their interactions with biological media. However, incorporating fluorescent markers (FM) into BCPs can appear tricky; we thus intend to help chemists in this endeavor by reviewing recent advances made in the last 10 years. With the choice of the FM being of prior importance, we first reviewed their photophysical properties and functionalities for optimal labeling and imaging. In the second part the different chemical approaches that have been used in the literature to fluorescently label BCPs have been reviewed. We also report and discuss relevant applications of fluorescent BCPs in bioimaging.

Abstract
Nanoemulsions (NEs) are water-dispersed oil droplets that constitute stealth biocompatible nanomaterials. NEs can reach an impressive degree of fluorescent brightness owing to their oily core that can encapsulate a large number of fluorophores on the condition the latter are sufficiently hydrophobic and oil-soluble. BODIPYs are among the brightest green emitting fluorophores and as neutral molecules possess high lipophilicity. Herein, we synthesized three different natural lipid-BODIPY conjugates by esterification of an acidic BODIPY by natural lipids, namely: α-tocopherol (vitamin E), cholesterol, and stearyl alcohol. The new BODIPY conjugates were characterized in solvents and oils before being encapsulated in NEs at various concentrations. The physical (size, stability over time, leakage) and photophysical properties (absorption and emission wavelength, brightness, photostability) are reported and showed that the nature of the lipid anchor and the nature of the oil used for emulsification greatly influence the properties of the bright NEs.

Abstract
Endothelial senescence has been identified as an early event in the development of endothelial dysfunction, a hallmark of cardiovascular disease. This study developed theranostic nanocarriers (NC) decorated with VCAM-1 antibodies (NC-VCAM-1) in order to target cell surface VCAM-1, which is overexpressed in senescent endothelial cells (ECs) for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Incubation of Ang II-induced premature senescent ECs or replicative senescent ECs with NC-VCAM-1 loaded with lipophilic fluorescent dyes showed higher fluorescence signals than healthy EC, which was dependent on the NC size and VCAM-1 antibodies concentration, and not observed following masking of VCAM-1. NC loaded with omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (NC-EPA:DHA6:1) were more effective than native EPA:DHA 6:1 to prevent Ang II-induced VCAM-1 and p53 upregulation, and SA-β-galactosidase activity in coronary artery segments. These theranostic NC might be of interest to evaluate the extent and localization of endothelial senescence and to prevent pro-senescent endothelial responses.

Abstract
Lipid nanoemulsions (NEs), owing to their controllable size (20 to 500 nm), stability and biocompatibility, are now frequently used in various fields, such as food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, drug delivery, and even as nanoreactors for chemical synthesis. Moreover, being composed of components generally recognized as safe (GRAS), they can be considered as "green" nanoparticles that mimic closely lipoproteins and intracellular lipid droplets. Therefore, they attracted attention as carriers of drugs and fluorescent dyes for both bioimaging and studying the fate of nanoemulsions in cells and small animals. In this review, the composition of dye-loaded NEs, methods for their preparation, and emerging biological applications are described. The design of bright fluorescent NEs with high dye loading and minimal aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) is focused on. Common issues including dye leakage and NEs stability are discussed, highlighting advanced techniques for their characterization, such as Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). Attempts to functionalize NEs surface are also discussed. Thereafter, biological applications for bioimaging and single-particle tracking in cells and small animals as well as biomedical applications for photodynamic therapy are described. Finally, challenges and future perspectives of fluorescent NEs are discussed.
