The ability to gain spatiotemporal information, and in some cases achieve control, the context of drug delivery makes theranostic fluorescent probes an attractive intensely investigated research topic. This interest is reflected steep rise publications on topic that have appeared over past decade. Theranostic probes, their various incarnations, generally comprise a fluorophore linked masked drug, which released as result certain stimuli, with both intrinsic extrinsic stimuli being reported. release then signaled by emergence signal. Importantly, use appropriate fluorophores has enabled not only this emerging fluorescence marker for but also provided modalities useful photodynamic, photothermal, sonodynamic therapeutic applications. In review we highlight recent work particular focus are activated tumor microenvironments. We summarize efforts develop other applications, such neurodegenerative diseases antibacterials. celebrates diversity designs reported date, from discrete small-molecule systems nanomaterials. Our aim provide insights into potential clinical impact still-emerging direction.

Fluorescence imaging is one of the most promising approaches to achieve intraoperative assessment tumor/normal tissue margins during cancer surgery. This critical improve patients' prognosis, and therefore various molecular fluorescence probes have been developed for identification lesions Among them, "activatable" that react with cancer-specific biomarker enzymes generate signals great potential high-contrast due their low background high signal amplification by enzymatic turnover. Over past two decades, activatable employing control mechanisms worldwide this purpose. Furthermore, new activities specific types cancers identified, enabling visualization sensitivity specificity. Review focuses on recent advances in design, function characteristics target also discusses future prospects field activity-based diagnostics cancer.

Abnormal lipid droplets (LDs) are known to be intimately bound with the occurrence and development of cancer, allowing LDs critical biomarkers for cancers. Aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens), efficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) production performance, prime photosensitizers (PSs) photodynamic therapy (PDT) imaging. Therefore, dual-functional fluorescent probes aggregation-induced (AIE) characteristics that enable both simultaneous LD monitoring imaging-guided PDT is essential concurrent cancer diagnosis treatment. Herein, we reported a novel LD-targeting probe (TDTI) AIE which was expected realize integration through visualization treatment via PDT. We demonstrated TDTI, typical excellent photostability, could target high specificity, enables dynamic tracking in living cells, specific imaging zebrafish, differentiation cells from normal diagnosis. Meanwhile, TDTI exhibited fast ROS generation ability (achieving equilibrium within 60 s) under white light irradiation (10 mW/cm2). The cell apoptosis assay revealed effectively induced growth inhibition HeLa cells. Further, results vivo indicated had good antitumor effect on tumor-bearing mice model. Collectively, these highlight potential utility integrated cancer.

Abstract Phototheranostics has garnered sustained attention due to its significant potential for revolutionizing conventional cancer treatment strategies. While being one of the most commonly employed strategies constructing phototheranostic systems by engineering integration photosensitizers (PSs) into nanosystems, nano‐PSs face challenges including complexity in preparation process, low delivery efficiency, and toxicity issues. Contrastingly, burgeoning popularity small molecule PSs characterized aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) become evident arena phototheranostics. This preference is underscored their well‐defined structures, adjustable photophysical properties, toxicity. Therefore, acquiring profound insights pioneering strides achievable through a solitary PS with AIE tumor phototheranostics paramount scientific significance. In this review, we will discuss recent progress properties diagnosis phototherapies representative examples, guided ethos “Complexity made easy”. We also look forward future development direction molecules, central objective advancing research focal emphasis on simplicity, expeditiousness, safety.
