Considering the scarcity of hydrogen sulfide (HS) probes with subcellular organelle targeting, especially probes with near-infrared (NIR) emission wavelengths fluorophores, our group has been working to overcome this problem and looking forward to providing potential practical tools for exploring the relationship between the physiology and pathology of HS at subcellular level. In this paper, a novel colorimetric and NIR fluorescent probe SHCy-HS for the specific detection of HS in lysosome over other biological thiols was designed and synthesized. The xanthene-benzothiozolium fluorophore was chosen to provide fluorescence emission maxima over 735 nm, and 2,4-dinitrophenyl group was chosen as fluorescence quenching group and specific HS response site. Impressively, SHCy-HS exhibited high selectivity, fast response and detection limit as low as 0.116 μM for HS, marked obvious color changes in naked-eye and fluorescence. Specially, SHCy-HS was capable of specifically imaging endogenous lysosomal hydrogen sulfide, providing a potential tool for exploring the function of HS at subcellular level.

Depleted uranium (DU) is a byproduct of uranium enrichment, which can cause heavy-metal toxicity and radiation toxicity as well as serious damage to the kidneys. However, the mechanism of renal injury induced by DU is still unclear. This study aimed to explore the role of ethylmalonic encephalopathy 1 (ETHE1) in DU-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Harsh acid oxidation of activated charcoal transforms an insoluble carbon-rich source into water-soluble, disc structures of graphene decorated with multiple oxygen-containing functionalities. We term these pleiotropic nano-enzymes as "pleozymes". A broad redox potential spans many crucial redox reactions including the oxidation of hydrogen sulfide (HS) to polysulfides and thiosulfate, dismutation of the superoxide radical (O*), and oxidation of NADH to NAD.

Morning-time heart attacks are associated with an ablation in the sleep-time dip in blood pressure, the mechanism of which is unknown. The epigenetic changes are the hallmark of sleep and circadian clock disruption and homocystinuria (HHcy). The homocystinuria causes ablation in the dip in blood pressure during sleep.

Two-dimensional materials with a nanostructure have been introduced as promising candidates for SERS platforms for sensing application. However, the dynamic control and tuning of SERS remains a long-standing problem. Here, we demonstrated active tuning of the enhancement factor of the first- and second-order Raman mode of monolayer (1L) MoS transferred onto a flexible metallic nanotip array.

In this study, we have proposed an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signal amplification system which is based on two-dimensional (2D) flower-like CdS@Co/Mo-MOF composites as a co-reaction accelerator of the g-CN/SO system for ultrasensitive detection of chlorpromazine hydrochloride (CPH). Specifically, the 2D flower-like Co/Mo-MOF with mesoporous alleviated the aggregation of CdS NPs while simultaneously fostering reactant-active site contact and improving the reactant-product transport rate. This allowed the material to act as a novel co-reaction accelerator, speeding up the transformation of the SO into SO and enhancing the cathodic ECL emission of g-CN.
