Near-infrared esterase-activated fluorescent probes for tumor cell identification and in vivo heterogeneity imaging.

Esterases constitute vital hydrolases participating in lipid metabolism, prodrug activation, and tumor progression. Due to the significant heterogeneity in their expression levels across different types of tumor microenvironments, esterases have emerged as promising biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. This probe achieves...
