We propose a novel strategy for tailoring the structure of fluorescent molecules to achieve emission at the tail end of the NIR-II window. The favorable spectroscopic properties and low cytotoxicity of YNs make them powerful tools for bioimaging. Notably, YN-4 exhibits a brightness 2.5 times greater than YN-3, 6 times that of IR-783, and 5 times that of ICG. This enhanced brightness enabled high-resolution imaging of mouse thoracic and abdominal cavities, tumor vasculature, and real-time monitoring of gastrointestinal motility using YN-4. Furthermore, covalent grafting of glucose onto the YN-Glu scaffold significantly improved tumor-targeting capability and facilitated tracking of glucose metabolism. This work aims to extend the application of fluorescent molecule imaging beyond the NIR-IIa window.

Bacterial denitrification is a main pathway for soil NO sinks, which is crucial for assessing and controlling NO emissions. Biobased polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) microplastic particles (MPs) degrade slowly in conventional environments, remaining inert for extended periods. However, the impacts of PHA microplastic aging on the bacterial NO sink capacity before degradation remain poorly understood.

Expanded heterohelicene composing of alternating linearly and angularly fused multi-resonance (MR) skeleton has garnered wide interest for their promising narrowband emission. Herein, a pair of sym- and asym-expanded heterohelicene isomers are firstly developed by merging boron/oxygen (B/O)-embedded MR triangulene and indolo[3,2,1-jk]carbazole units via one-shot synthesis. Owing to the fully resonating extended helical skeleton, the target heterohelicenes exhibit significantly narrowed spectra bandwidth while emission red-shifting, thus affording deep-blue narrowband emission with peak at around 460 nm, full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) of merely 18 nm and near-unity photoluminescence quantum yields.

Antiretroviral therapy (ART) improves the quality of life for those living with the human immunodeficiency virus type one (HIV-1). However, poor compliance reduces ART effectiveness and leads to immune compromise, viral mutations, and disease co-morbidities. Here we develop a drug formulation in which a lipid-based nanoparticle (LBNP) carrying rilpivirine (RPV) is decorated with the C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) targeting peptide.
