Abstract Ratiometric afterglow luminescent (AGL) probes are attractive for in vivo imaging due to their high sensitivity and signal self‐calibration function. However, there currently few ratiometric AGL available enzymatic activity living organisms. Here, we present an energy diversion (ED) strategy that enables the design of enzyme‐activated probe (RAG‐RGD) imaging. The ED process provides RAG‐RGD with a radiative transition ‘always on’ 520‐nm (AGL 520 ) cascade three‐step transfer (ET) ‘off‐on’ 710‐nm 710 response specific enzyme. Using matrix metalloproteinase‐2 (MMP‐2) as example, shows significant ~11‐fold increase /AGL toward MMP‐2. This can sensitively detect U87MG brain tumors through MMP‐2 activity, signal‐to‐background ratio deep depth. Furthermore, by utilizing effect imaging, demonstrated strong negative correlation between value size orthotopic tumor, enabling accurate monitoring glioma growth vivo. may be applied other sensitive

Afterglow imaging holds great promise for ultrasensitive bioimaging due to its elimination of autofluorescence. Self-sustaining afterglow molecules (SAMs), which enable all-in-one photon sensitization, chemical defect formation and generation, possess a simplified, reproducible, efficient superiority over commonly used multi-component systems. However, there is lack SAMs, particularly those with much brighter near-infrared (NIR) emission structural flexibility building high-contrast activatable probes. To address these issues, this study the first time reports methylene blue derivative-based self-sustaining agent (SAN-M) NIR chemiluminescence peaking at 710 nm. By leveraging tunability, an nanoprobe (SAN-MO) customized simultaneously fluoro-photoacoustic peroxynitrite (ONOO

Abstract Activatable afterglow luminescence nanoprobes enabling switched “off-on” signals in response to biomarkers have recently emerged achieve reduced unspecific and improved imaging fidelity. However, such always use a biomarker-interrupted energy transfer obtain an activatable signal, which necessitates strict distance requisition between donor acceptor moiety (<10 nm) hence induces low efficiency non-feasibility. Herein, we report organic upconversion cocktail nanoparticles (ALCNs) that instead utilize acidity-manipulated singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) with enlarged thus possess more flexibility signal. After vitro validation of acidity-activated luminescence, ALCNs vivo 4T1-xenograft subcutaneous tumors female mice orthotopic liver male high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). As representative targeting trial, Bio-ALCNs biotin modification prove the enhanced ability, sensitivity, specificity for pulmonary metastasis tumor via systemic administration mice, also implies potential broad utility diverse design flexibility.
