Abstract
Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent regulated cell death, has been emerging as an early mechanism in anticancer drug-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) that may benefit therapeutic intervention. However, the lack of molecular imaging methods for in vivo detection of ferroptosis restricts the early diagnosis of anticancer drug-induced AKI. Herein, we developed a PET/19F MRI dual-modal imaging probe for the monitoring of ferroptosis in AKI by chemically conjugating the Fe(II)-sensitive artemisinin (Art) motif and macrocyclic ligand 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) to the CF3-modified polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) clusters, denoted as the PAD probe. The PAD probe could be converted into PA*D in the presence of Fe(II) ions and subsequently be intercepted by biological macromolecules nearby, thereby enhancing the retention effect in ferroptotic cells and tissues. After labeling with 68Ga isotopes, the 68Ga-labeled PAD probe in cisplatin (CDDP)-induced AKI mice displayed a significantly higher renal uptake level than that in normal mice. Moreover, the PAD probe with a precise chemical structure, relatively high 19F content, and single 19F resonance frequency allowed for interference-free and high-performance19F MRI that could detect the onset of CDDP-induced AKI at least 24 h earlier than the typical clinical/preclinical assays. Our study provides a robust dual-modal molecular imaging tool for the early diagnosis and mechanistic investigation of various ferroptosis-related diseases.

Abstract
Understanding the intricate molecular machinery that governs ferroptosis and leveraging this accumulating knowledge could facilitate disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Emerging approaches for the in situ detection of the major regulators and biological events across cellular, tissue, and in living subjects provide a multiscale perspective for studying ferroptosis. Furthermore, advanced applications that integrate ferroptosis detection and the latest technologies hold tremendous promise in ferroptosis research. In this review, we first briefly summarize the mechanisms and key regulators underlying ferroptosis. Ferroptosis detection approaches are then presented to delineate their design, mechanisms of action, and applications. Special interest is placed on advanced ferroptosis applications that integrate multifunctional platforms. Finally, we discuss the prospects and challenges of ferroptosis detection approaches and applications, with the aim of providing a roadmap for the theranostic development of a broad range of ferroptosis-related diseases.

Abstract
Ferroptosis has been realized in anticancer drug-induced acute cardiac/kidney injuries (ACI/AKI); however, molecular imaging approach to detect ferroptosis in ACI/AKI is a challenge. We report an artemisinin-based probe (Art-Gd) for contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of ferroptosis (feMRI) by exploiting the redox-active Fe(II) as a vivid chemical target. In vivo, the Art-Gd probe showed great feasibility in early diagnosis of anticancer drug-induced ACI/AKI, which was at least 24 and 48 hours earlier than the standard clinical assays for assessing ACI and AKI, respectively. Furthermore, the feMRI was able to provide imaging evidence for the different mechanisms of action of ferroptosis-targeted agents, either by blocking lipid peroxidation or depleting iron ions. This study presents a feMRI strategy with simple chemistry and robust efficacy for early evaluation of anticancer drug-induced ACI/AKI, which may shed light on the theranostics of a variety of ferroptosis-related diseases.

Abstract
T cells play a determining role in the immunomodulation and prognostic evaluation of cancer treatments relying on immune activation. While specific biomarkers determine the population and distribution of T cells in tumours, the in situ activity of T cells is less studied. Here we designed T-cell-targeting fusogenic liposomes to regulate and quantify the activity of T cells by exploiting their surface redox status as a chemical target. The T-cell-targeting fusogenic liposomes equipped with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (TEMP) groups neutralize reactive oxygen species protecting T cells from oxidation-induced loss of activity. Meanwhile, the production of paramagnetic 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl (TEMPO) radicals allows magnetic resonance imaging quantification of the T cell activity. In multiple mouse models, the T-cell-targeting fusogenic liposomes led to efficient tumour inhibition and to early prediction of radiotherapy outcomes. This study uses a chemical targeting strategy to measure the in situ activity of T cells for cancer theranostics and may provide further understanding on engineering T cells for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Combination therapy based on different mechanisms of cell death has shown promises in tumor therapy. However, design considerations for integrating different modalities are often lack of rationale to synergize the therapeutic effects to the maximal extent. Here, we report a cancer theranostic nanomedicine formula by attentively considering the mechanisms of action of ferroptosis and photothermal effect in combination therapy. We applied the croconaine molecule as both a photothermal converter and an iron-chelating agent which could be readily encapsulated with BSA thus attaining biocompatible and stable Cro-Fe@BSA nanoparticles. The Cro-Fe@BSA nanoprticles in the tumor milieu showed an activated photothermal effect which could enhance the radical formation due to the temperature-dependent Fenton reaction kinetics, while the radical formation during ferroptosis could in turn destruct the heat-induced formation of heat shock proteins, thus preventing the self-protection mechanism of cancer cells in response to heat. This mutually beneficial strategy led to an efficient anticancer effect both in vitro and in a subcutaneous mouse tumor model. Furthermore, the activatable photoacoustic and magnetic resonance imaging performance of the Cro-Fe@BSA nanoparticles provided an intelligent paradigm for safe and reliable cancer theranostics. This study may open up new avenues in designing nanomedicines from a vantage point of synergizing different therapeutic modalities.
