Article Abstract
Fluorescent macromolecules were developed for intracellular labeling in live cells. Coupling rigid rod phenyleneethynylene trimers with flexible amphiphilic diamines via the imine-bond formation chemistry yielded rigid-flexible [2+2] macromolecules showing nucleic acid selectivity and nontoxicity in live cells.

Unlabelled: Adenoviruses are double-stranded DNA viruses widely used as platforms for vaccines, oncolytics, and gene delivery. However, tools for studying adenoviral gene expression in real time during infection remain limited. Here, we describe a set of fluorescent and bioluminescent reporter viruses built using the modular AdenoBuilder reverse genetics system and informed by high-resolution maps of Ad5 transcription.

Live-cell imaging of intracellular proteins enables real-time observation of protein dynamics under near-physiological conditions, providing pivotal insights for both fundamental life science research and medical applications. However, due to limitations such as poor probe permeability and cytotoxicity associated with conventional antibody-based or genetically encoded labeling techniques, live-cell imaging remains a significant challenging. To address these limitations, here in this study, we developed and rigorously validated a novel aptamer-based fluorescent probe for real-time imaging of NEK9 kinase in living cells.

Labeling the plasma membrane for advanced imaging remains a significant challenge. For time-lapse live cell imaging, probe internalization and photobleaching are major limitations affecting most membrane-specific dyes. In fixed or permeabilized cells, many membrane probes either lose signal after fixation or fail to remain localized to the plasma membrane.

Single-cell surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has emerged as a powerful tool for precision medicine owing to its label-free detection, ultrasensitivity, and unique molecular fingerprinting. Unlike conventional bulk analysis, it enables detailed characterization of cellular heterogeneity, with particular promise in circulating tumor cell (CTC) identification, tumor microenvironment (TME) metabolic profiling, subcellular imaging, and drug sensitivity assessment. Coupled with microfluidic droplet systems, SERS supports high-throughput single-cell analysis and multiparametric screening, while integration with complementary modalities such as fluorescence microscopy and mass spectrometry enhances temporal and spatial resolution for monitoring live cells.

Cryo-electron tomography (cryoET) provides 3D datasets of organelles and proteins at nanometer and sub-nanometer resolution. However, locating target proteins in live cells remains a significant challenge. Conventional labeling methods, such as fluorescent protein tagging and immunogold labeling, are unsuitable for small structures in vitrified samples at molecular resolution.
