Published: July 2013

The possible origin of luminescent properties of biodegradable photoluminescent polyesters (BPLPs) has been revealed by isolation and identification of luminescent agent from the hydrolyzate of BPLP. Elemental analysis, ESI-MS, (1)H, (13)C, 2D HSQC and COSY NMR spectra confirmed the chemical structure as 5-oxo-2,3-dihydro-5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridine-3,7-dicarboxylic acid (TPA).

Deciphering neuronal circuits is pivotal for deepening our understanding of neuronal functions and advancing treatments for neurological disorders. Conventional neuronal tracers suffer from restrictions such as limited penetration depth, high immunogenicity, and inadequacy for long-term and imaging. In this context, we introduce an aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgen), MeOTFVP, engineered for enhanced neuronal tracing and imaging.

Carbon dots (CDs) are versatile nanomaterials that are considered ideal for application in bioimaging, drug delivery, sensing, and optoelectronics owing to their excellent photoluminescence, biocompatibility, and chemical stability features. Nitrogen doping enhances the fluorescence of CDs, alters their electronic properties, and improves their functional versatility. N-doped CDs can be synthesized via solvothermal treatment of carbon sources with nitrogen-rich precursors; however, systematic investigations of their synthesis mechanisms have been rarely reported.

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) have shown considerable interest in multiple fields including bioimaging, biosensing, photocatalysis, ion sensing, heavy metal detection, and therapy due to highly tunable photoluminescence and good photostability. Apart from having optical properties CQDs offer several advantages such as low toxicity, environmental friendliness, affordability, and simple synthesis methods. Furthermore, by modifying their surface and functionality, it's possible to precisely control their physical and chemical characteristics.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have shown promise for applications in the diagnosis and treatment of different diseases, including cancer. Understanding the effect of AuNPs on metabolic reprogramming in cancer cells at the single cell level is of high importance for improving the efficacy and safety. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) hydrogen (NAD(P)H) as a main metabolic cofactor and an indicator of metabolic reprogramming in cancer cells enables real-time monitoring of cancer cell metabolism in response to different treatments, including AuNPs.

Aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgens)-based photothermal therapy (PTT) has grown into a sparkling frontier for tumor ablation. However, challenges remain due to the uncoordinated photoluminescence (PL) and photothermal properties of classical AIEgens, along with hyperthermia-induced antiapoptotic responses in tumor cells, hindering satisfactory therapeutic outcomes. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR) spiro-AIEgen was designed for boosted PTT by auxiliary DNAzyme-regulated tumor cell sensitization.
