Unimolecular Sonoafterglow Probes for Biomarker-Activated Imaging of Senescent Cancer Cells.

Sonoafterglow imaging is a promising deep-tissue molecular imaging modality that effectively suppresses autofluorescence and offers enhanced tissue penetration depth compared to conventional optical methods. However, its potential is constrained by the lack of unimolecular, self-sustaining sonoafterglow luminophores. H...

Aggregation-Induced Photodegradable and Hydrolyzable Photosensitizer for Cu64 Positron Emission Tomography/Photoacoustic Imaging-Guided Phototherapy Nanoplatforms with Controllable Performance.

Radio imaging and optical imaging offer complementary advantages for biomedical diagnosis. However, the photosensitizers used in imaging must be degraded to reduce phototoxicity during phototherapy. Herein, we report a novel dicyanomethylene-based near-infrared photosensitizer (PS) that self-degrades via multiple pathw...

Chemically Initiated Single-Module Afterglow Imaging via Lesion-Microenvironment-Activated Cyanine-Fe Coordination.

Afterglow luminescence imaging offers high sensitivity, deep-tissue readability, and persistent emission for image-guided surgery, but most current probes still require external energy activation, limiting autonomous lesion reporting and increasing the risk of off-target tissue exposure. Here, we report a single-module...

Ultrabright NIR-II fluorophores enabled by noncovalent conformational locking for in vivo inflammation imaging

Ultrabright fluorophores emitting in the second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) window are highly desirable for biomedical and optoelectronic applications but remain rare, because fluorescence brightness requires the simultaneous realization of a large absorption coefficient (ε) and a high photoluminescence quantu...
