Article Abstract
Hypochlorous acid is an important active substance involved in a variety of physiological processes in living organisms, while abnormal concentrations of HOCl are strongly associated with a variety of diseases such as cancer, inflammation, atherosclerosis, and Alzheimer's disease. As a result, it's crucial to establish a reliable method for tracking HOCl in vivo in order to investigate its physiological consequences. In this work, we developed a fluorescent probe DFSN with both AIE and ESIPT for imaging HOCl in vivo. DFSN not only has a basic structure and is easy to synthesize, but also has superior performance. The probe responds to HOCl in less than 10 s and has good selectivity and sensitivity to HOCl (DL = 6.3 nM), with a 110-fold increase in fluorescence intensity following response. In addition, DFSN can realize the rapid detection of hypochlorous acid with naked eyes. Moreover, DFSN can be used for the detection of exogenous and endogenous HOCl in RAW264.7 cells, and additionally enables the tracking of HOCl in cancer cells (Hela cells and HepG2 cells). More notably, it has been utilized to image hypochlorous acid in zebrafish with great success. The probe DFSN will be useful in determining the physiological significance of HOCl.

Highly reactive oxygen species (hROS) are very important biological mediators, which are closely related to many physiological processes and diseases. Although fluorescent probes are one of the widely used detection tools for hROS in clinical practice, there are still challenges such as short wavelengths, and detection for a single species. Therefore, we focused our research on the development of long-wavelength fluorescent probes for multiple hROS detection to enable sensitive diseases diagnosis.

Ferroptosis-mediated tumor intervention has recently been revealed to play multiple roles in biology. Real-time monitoring of ferroptosis progression is imperative for the immediate assessment of therapeutic responses and the adjustment of diagnostic regimens but challenging as well. Herein, we present an activatable probe () designed for NIR fluorescence visualization and differential assessment of tumor responses to ferroptosis.

Polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants that pose a significant threat to ecosystems and human health. The toxicity of PS-MPs to the liver is associated with a surge of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the specific type of ROS triggered by PS-MPs in the injured liver tissue remains inadequately known.

The inappropriate or excessive drug and alcohol consumption is a major cause of liver injuries. The development of a tool capable of visualizing the liver injury process with high precision, and in real time is particularly urgent. In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel HOCl-responsive fluorescent probe, PTZ-NS, for tracking mitochondrial HOCl during liver injury.
