Supramolecular nanomaterials as drug carriers have recently received increasing attention due to their intrinsic merits such high stability, strong inclusion capability, and facile modification of the parental structure; however, intelligent ones with combined capacities long blood circulation, highly efficient tumor cell uptake, site-oriented release inside cells are still rather limited. Herein, we report a strategy using supramolecular aggregation-induced emission (AIE) nanodots for image-guided delivery, which integrate both advantages AIE nanomaterials. The dots prepared by host-guest coassembly matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) sensitive PEG-peptide (PEG2000-RRRRRRRR (R8)-PLGLAG-EKEKEKEKEKEK (EK6)) functional α-cyclodextrins (α-CD) derivatives that conjugated anticancer gemcitabine (GEM) far-red/near-infrared fluorescent rhodanine-3-acetic acid-based luminogen, respectively. realize circulation time virtue zwitterionic stealth peptide EK6. After largely accumulating in tissues enhanced permeability retention effect, can successively respond tumor-overexpressed MMP-2 intracellular reductive microenvironment, achieving cancer cellular uptake selective GEM within cells, thus exhibit excellent inhibition ability subcutaneous orthotopic pancreatic models.

Immunogenic cell death (ICD) provides momentous theoretical principle for modern cancer immunotherapy. However, the currently available ICD inducers are still very limited and photosensitizer-based ones can hardly induce sufficient to achieve satisfactory immunotherapy by themselves. Herein, an organic photosensitizer (named TPE-DPA-TCyP) with a twisted molecular structure, strong aggregation-induced emission activity, specific ability is reported effectively inducing focused mitochondrial oxidative stress of cells, which serve as much superior inducer popularly used ones, including chlorin e6 (Ce6), pheophorbide A, oxaliplatin. Furthermore, more effective in vivo immunogenicity TPE-DPA-TCyP than Ce6 also demonstrated using prophylactic tumor vaccination model. The underlying mechanism effectiveness robustness antitumor immunity immune-memory effect verified immune analyses. This study thus reveals that highly strategy evoke abundant large-scale ICD.

The emergence of the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) concept significantly changes cognition scientific community toward classic photophysical phenomena. More importantly, AIE phenomenon has brought huge opportunities for analysis bioactive species, monitoring complicated biological processes, and elucidation key physiological pathological behaviors. As a class promising luminescent materials, luminogens (AIEgens) are weakly or non-emissive in form isolated molecular species but emit particularly strong fluorescence aggregated solid states. Motivated by prominent advantages such as high brightness, large Stokes shift, excellent photostability, good biocompatibility, AIEgen-based bioprobes have been widely explored field biomedicine. This review aims to provide systematic summary developmental history an in-depth perspective current landscape biomedical field, with emphasis on discussions major working principles. milestones historical development first reviewed. A total four research directions then extracted, including biomacromolecule sensing (at level), vitro cell imaging cellular vivo animal cancer theranostics levels), together clear-cut tables showing comprehensive cases further study. Lastly, this is concluded several perspectives future directions. It believed that will play vital roles exploration mysterious life processes integration various cutting-edge modalities techniques ultimate goal addressing more healthcare issues.

Abstract Host–guest complexation between calix[5]arene and aggregation‐induced emission luminogen (AIEgen) can significantly turn off both the energy dissipation pathways of intersystem crossing thermal deactivation, enabling absorbed excitation to mostly focus on fluorescence emission. The co‐assembly amphiphiles AIEgens affords highly emissive supramolecular AIE nanodots thanks their interaction severely restricting intramolecular motion AIEgens, which also show negligible generation cytotoxic reactive oxygen species. In vivo studies with a peritoneal carcinomatosis‐bearing mouse model indicate that such dots have rather low in side toxicity serve as superior fluorescent bioprobe for ultrasensitive image‐guided cancer surgery.
