Background: The β-secretase-1 inhibitors (BACEi), including verubecestat, were extensively studied in prodromal to moderate AD and demonstrated early cognitive decline (negative effect) at doses achieving >50% inhibition of amyloid production. Questions remain as to whether BACEi may still have utility, if used earlier in disease and at lower levels of inhibition. A mechanistic model of the progression of Alzheimer's disease was used to predict effects of alternative BACEi therapeutic approaches on disease progression.

The BET family proteins play pleiotropic roles in the tumorigenesis and growth of various human malignancies that have aroused great interests as the cancer therapeutic targets. Therefore, it's significant to develop labeling toolkits for the dynamic monitoring of BET family proteins in living tumor cells and tissue slices. In particular, there are few small-molecule fluorescent probes based on BET family proteins developed for real-time imaging of these proteins in tumor cells and tissues and treatment of breast cancer.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder escalating worldwide, remains incurable with existing interventions merely mitigating symptoms. Hydralazine, an antihypertensive agent, has displayed neuroprotective potential in AD animal models via amplification of mitochondrial functionality and stimulation of stress management and repair pathways. Nevertheless, its effectiveness and tolerability in human AD cohorts are yet to be confirmed.

Organic photosensitizers (PSs) play important roles in phototheranostics, and contribute to the fast development of precision medicine. However, water-soluble and highly emissive organic PSs, especially those emitting in the short-wave infrared region (SWIR), are still challenging. Also, it's difficult to prepare self-reporting PSs for visualizing the treatment via stimulated emission depletion (STED) nanoscopy.
