The existence of residual small-size tumors after surgery is a major factor contributing to the high recurrence rate glioblastoma (GBM). Conventional adjuvant therapeutics involving both chemotherapy and radiotherapy usually exhibit unsatisfactory efficacy severe side effects. Recently, two-photon photodynamic therapy (TP-PDT), especially excited by second near-infrared (NIR-II) light, offers an unprecedented opportunity address this challenge, attributed its combinational merits PDT TP excitation. However, attempt has not been explored yet. On other hand, lack high-performance photosensitizers (PSs) also hinders progress TP-PDT on GBM. Based those, robust TP-PS, termed MeTTh, constructed intendedly through elaborately integrating multiple beneficial design strategies into single molecule, which simultaneously achieves excellent NIR-II excitation, large absorption cross-section, aggregation-induced NIR-I emission, prominent Type I/II reactive oxygen species generation. Aided nanofabrication, impressive brain structure imaging depth 940 µm realized. Moreover, MeTTh nanoparticles smoothly implement precise efficient treatment GBM in vivo under 1040 nm femtosecond laser irradiation. This study represents first-in-class using GBM, offering new insights for complex vital tissues.

Fluorescence imaging (FLI)-guided phototheranostics using emission from the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window show significant potential for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Clinical imaging-used polymethine ionic indocyanine green (ICG) dye is widely adopted NIR fluorescence imaging-guided photothermal therapy (PTT) research due to its exceptional photophysical properties. However, ICG has limitations such as poor photostability, low conversion efficiency (PCE), short-wavelength peak, liver-targeting issues, which restrict wider use. In this study, two derivatives are transformed into neutral merocyanines (mCy) achieve much-enhanced performance NIR-II phototheranostics. Initial designs of dyes similar drawbacks in terms photostability performance. One modified molecules, mCy890, shows significantly improved stability, an peak over 1000 nm, a high PCE 51%, all considerably outperform ICG. vivo studies demonstrate that nanoparticles mCy890 can effectively accumulate at tumor sites guided by imaging.

The two contradictory entities in nature often follow the principle of unity opposites, leading to optimal overall performance. Particularly, aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) with donor–acceptor (D–A) structures exhibit tunable optical properties and versatile functionalities, offering significant potential revolutionize cancer treatment. However, trapped by low molar absorptivity (ε) owing distorted configurations, ceilings their photon-harvesting capability corresponding phototheranostic performance still fall short. Therefore, a research paradigm from twisted configuration near-planar structure featuring high ε is urgently needed for AIEgens development. Herein, introducing strategy "motion stillness" into highly planar A–D–A skeleton, we successfully developed near-infrared (NIR)-II AIEgen Y5-2BO-2BTF, which boasts an impressive 1.06 × 105 M–1 cm–1 photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) 77.8%. modification steric hindrance on benzene ring acceptor unit aggregation-caused quenching counterpart Y5-2BO, meta-CF3-substituted naphthyl, leads reversely staggered packing various intermolecular noncovalent conformational locks Y5-2BO-2BTF ("stillness"). Furthermore, −CF3 moiety acted as flexible motion ultralow energy barrier, significantly facilitating process loose aggregates ("motion"). Accordingly, nanoparticles enabled tumor eradication pulmonary metastasis inhibition through NIR-II fluorescence-photoacoustic-photothermal imaging-navigated type I photodynamic-photothermal therapy.
