Pathological thrombus can cause serious acute diseases that present a significant threat to human health, such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Challenges remain in achieving effective thrombolysis and real-time monitoring of therapeutic effects while minimizing side effects. Herein,a multifunctional nanoplatform (TG-OPDEA@UK/MnO 2 -H1080) with enhanced thrombus-permeability was developed to monitor the therapeutic effect of antioxidant-thrombolysis by hydroxyl radical-responsive NIR-II fluorescence imaging. The polyzwitterion poly (oxidized N,N-Diethylaminoethyl methacrylate- co -n-butyl methacrylate) (OPDEA) was prepared as the matrix of nanoparticles to simultaneously loading urokinase (UK) and MnO 2 QDs, as well as NIR-II fluorescent molecule, H-1080. Subsequently, the fibrin targeted peptide CREKA was modified on the surface of the nanoparticles. OPDEA exhibits efficient loading capacity while endowing nanoparticles with the ability to effectively increased penetration depth of UK by 94.1 % into the thrombus, for extensive thrombolysis and fluorescence monitoring. The loaded UK exhibited good thrombolytic effect and greatly reduced the risk of bleeding by 82.6 %. TG-OPDEA@UK/MnO 2 -H1080 showed good thrombolytic efficacy and specific thrombus monitoring in the mouse carotid artery thrombosis model induced by ferric chloride (FeCl 3 ). This work prepares a nanoplatform for thrombolytic therapy and real-time efficacy assessment based on an independent externally forced thrombus penetration delivery strategy.

Deep tissue bacterial infections, especially methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, pose challenges to clinical therapy due to their low debridement efficiency and relapsing. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) is used in the antibacterial field as a classic photothermal agent (NIR-I) with good biocompatibility. However, due to its limited NIR-I tissue penetration ability and single treatment mode, MoS 2 has poor therapeutic effects on deep tissue infection. Herein, we prepared a defect-type hybrid 2H-MoS 2 nanozyme (MoWS 2 ) using hydrothermal method fabricate the MoWS 2 composite, which is a new antibacterial strategy involving photothermal and enzyme catalysis, and further enhances the activity of the nanozyme through overheating. The regulation of 2H-MoS 2 defects through tungsten ion doping endows MoWS 2 with better near-infrared two-region absorption (NIR-II) and enzyme catalytic performance. Antibacterial activity experiments in vitro have shown that MoWS 2 can achieve efficient bactericidal activity and biofilm clearance through hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Deep MRSA infection experiments have shown that MoWS 2 rapidly removes bacteria from subcutaneous infected tissues through photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT), accelerates the dissipation of abscesses, and promotes the healing of infected wounds. Additionally, the versatile treatment mode of MoWS 2 was further confirmed through tissue sectioning and immunofluorescence staining analysis. Overall, these results provide a feasible approach for achieving efficient treatment of deep tissue infections through tungsten ion doping to regulate defective 2H-MoS 2 . Statement of significance The photothermal effect of MoS 2 nanosheets in the NIR-I (650-900 nm) window in anti-MRSA therapy is considered to be highly reliable and efficient in PTA. However, most of the developed PPT therapies or antimicrobial systems based on PTT therapies developed with 1T-MoS 2 have in vivo sterilization temperatures of more than 55°C, which have the risk of damaging the normal tissues of the skin. In this study, we prepared W@MoS 2 with a good photothermal effect (36.9%) in the NIR-II window and good peroxidase-like activity. The combined effect of PTT and CDT has a stronger bactericidal effect while avoiding high-temperature damage, which makes the W@MoS 2 material more advantageous in terms of antimicrobial effect.

Bioluminescence (BL) imaging has emerged to tackle the potential challenges of fluorescence (FL) imaging including the autofluorescence background, inhomogeneous illumination over a wide imaging field, and the light-induced overheating effect. Taking advantage of the bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) mechanism between a conventional luciferin compound and a suitable acceptor, the visible light of the former can be extended to photons with longer wavelengths emitting from the latter. Although BRET-based self-illuminating imaging probes have already been prepared, employing potentially cytotoxic elements as the acceptor with the emission wavelengths which hardly reach the first near-infrared (NIR-I) window, has limited their applications as safe and high performance in vivo imaging agents. Herein, we report a biocompatible, self-illuminating, and second near-infrared (NIR-II) emissive probe to address the cytotoxicity concerns as well as improve the penetration depth and spatiotemporal resolution of BL imaging. To this end, NanoLuc luciferase enzyme molecules were immobilized on the surface of silver sulfide quantum dots to oxidize its luciferin substrate and initiate a single-step BRET mechanism, resulting in NIR-II photons from the quantum dots. The resulting dual modality (BL/FL) probes were successfully applied to in vivo tumor imaging in mice, demonstrating that NIR-II BL signals could be easily detected from the tumor sites, giving rise to ∼2 times higher signal-to-noise ratios compared to those obtained under FL mode. The results indicated that nontoxic NIR-II emitting nanocrystals deserve more attention to be tailored to fill the growing demands of preparing appropriate agents for high quality BL imaging.

Inspired by the effective interfacial interactions between natural creatures (e.g., cockleburs and viruses) and their bio-hosts, we developed a novel gold-manganese oxide nanoparticle (Au-MnOx) nanoenzyme with a spiky surface for NIR-II light-induced synergistic antibacterial therapy. Au-MnOx with favorable photothermal performance and peroxidase-like activity could achieve combined photothermal therapy (PTT)/chemodynamic therapy (CDT) under NIR-II irradiation with a low concentration. Of special note, the spiky surface endows Au-MnOx robust bacterial adhesion, in turn favoring the following synergistic PTT/CDT through effective interaction between Au-MnOx and bacteria. In vitro results display that our combined antibacterial nanoplatforms possess the broad-spectrum antibacterial ability against both Escherichia coli (E. coli, Gram-negative) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus, Gram-positive). Moreover, satisfactory in vivo bactericidal efficacy and good cytocompatibility could be obtained in the rat wound model with the mixed bacterial infections. This study puts forward a facile one-pot method to establish the well-designed Au-MnOx nanozymes with a spiky surface for NIR-II light-enhanced bacterial elimination. The meteor hammer-like Au-MnOx holds great potential in construction of a novel antibacterial treatment system to settle the overuse of antibiotics.

Multi-functionality has been a constant pursuit in the development of next-generation drug carriers, as it will bring the potential for combination therapy by integrating diverse therapeutic modes. In this work, FeSe2 nanosheets (NSs) have been prepared as a bifunctional platform to investigate their use in synergistic cancer therapy. Bifunctional FeSe2 NSs exhibit exceptional Fenton-like activity that generates cytotoxic hydroxyl radical (˙OH) and strong broad photothermal performance including the second-infrared (NIR-II) spectral range, wherein the ˙OH production can be enhanced by NIR-II light irradiation. Furthermore, doxorubicin (DOX) was conjugated onto NSs via a pH-responsive hydrazone bond to achieve preferential drug release in an acidic microenvironment. Upon intratumoral administration, these bifunctional drug-carrying FeSe2 NSs showed an NIR-II irradiation-reinforced strong tumor suppression effect, and no obvious toxicity to normal tissues was observed. This study provides a new paradigm for the design of advanced drug carriers relying on their inherent physicochemical properties.

Near-infrared II (NIR-II) fluorescent nanoprobes hold great potential for biomedical applications. Elucidating the relationship between surface properties of NIR-II nanoprobes and their biological behaviors is particularly important for future probe design and their performance optimization. Despite the rapid development of NIR-II nanoprobes, the distinct role of surface chirality on their biological fates has rarely been exploited. Herein, chiral NIR-II fluorescent Ag 2 S quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized to investigate the relationship between their chirality and biological functions at both in vitro and in vivo levels. D- / L -Ag 2 S QDs exhibit significant differences on their interactions with serum proteins, which further affect the cellular uptake. As a result, D -Ag 2 S QDs can be internalized with higher efficiency (over 2-fold) than that of L -Ag 2 S QDs. Moreover, in vivo studies reveal that the chirality determines the primary localization of these chiral QDs, where a more efficient renal elimination of D -Ag 2 S QDs was observed than that of L -Ag 2 S QDs. Importantly, D -Ag 2 S QDs show preferential accumulation in tumor region than that of L -Ag 2 S QDs in orthotopic kidney tumor model, which points out a new avenue of enhancing targeting capabilities of nanoprobes by engineering their surface chirality.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common kidney disease characterized by a sudden decline in renal function. It usually has no clear clinical symptoms in its early stages, but can easily progress to renal failure or even result in death. Real-time monitoring of AKI progression significantly enhances the prospects for early diagnosis and prompt intervention. However, there is no available to monitor AKI as developing a renal-clearable and reversibly responsive probe capable of long-term in vivo track biomarkers of AKI, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), remains an extremely challenging task. Herein, we have constructed a redox-reversible second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescent probe based on Au nanoclusters (Au NCs) for long-term dynamic monitoring of AKI. The probe features NIR-II excitation and emission capabilities, along with effective kidney targeting and prolonged retention, facilitating renal enrichment and enabling long-term high-resolution renal imaging. Notably, it demonstrates rapid and reversible responsiveness to ROS with high sensitivity and selectivity, permitting real-time monitoring of redox fluctuations in vivo. Given its exceptional performance, the probe achieves unprecedented real-time dynamic tracking of AKI progression, providing crucial redox status information during the disease process. Additionally, the probe can serve as an effective new tool for screening of potential therapeutic drugs for AKI. This work may offer some substantial promotion for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases.

Hypothermal photothermal therapy (HPTT) employs hyperthermia (<45 °C) to destroy tumor cells with negligible side effects to the surrounding normal tissues. Despite extensive studies, the clinical translation of HPTT is severely hindered, owing to the discounted therapeutic effect and maximum permissible power of near-infrared (NIR) laser by food and drug administration (FDA). Herein, we report a rational design of red blood cell membranes (RBCs) coated FeS 2 (FeS 2 @RBCs) with strong absorption at NIR-Ⅱ window for effective HPTT augmented chemodynamic therapy (CDT). FeS 2 @RBCs exhibits prolonged blood circulation and negligible immune response, leading to improved tumor accumulation for enhanced HPTT. Furthermore, the CDT effect of FeS 2 @RBCs is significantly augmented by the temperature elevation in the tumor region, which leads to the synergetic HPTT and CDT. Lipidomics analysis reveals that the damage of tumor cells by CDT is via the lipid peroxidation. In addition, FeS 2 @RBCs exhibits self-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging after reacting with H 2 O 2 in tumor region for imaging-guided laser irradiation. Thus, FeS 2 @RBCs achieves remarkable inhibition of subcutaneous 4T1 breast tumor growth without obvious side effects by a 1064 nm laser irradiation of 1.0 W/cm 2 (FDA approved power density). Overall, this work provides a HPTT augmented CDT strategy for effective cancer therapy with a clinical approved laser power, which may pave the way for the clinical application of HPTT augmented CDT in the future.

Effectively interfering with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function in tumor cells and simultaneously activating an anti-tumor immune microenvironment to attack the tumor cells are promising strategies for cancer treatment. However, precise ER-stress induction is still a huge challenge. In this study, we synthesized a near-infrared (NIR) probe, NIR-715, which induces tumor cell death and inhibits tumor growth without causing apparent side effects. NIR-715 triggers severe ER stress and immunogenic cell death (ICD) after visible light exposure. NIR-715 induced ICD-associated HMGB1 release in vitro and anti-tumor immune responses, including increased cytotoxic T lymphocyte (GZMB + CD8 + T cell) infiltration and decreased numbers of exhausted T lymphocytes (PD-L1 + CD8 + T cell). These findings suggest that NIR-715 may be a novel agent for “cold” tumor photodynamic therapy (PDT). Schematic illustration of NIR-715 photodynamic therapy for visible light-triggered, endoplasmic reticulum-targeting antitumor therapy.

Near-infrared (NIR) light has been widely applied in the field of photothermal therapy (PTT). Recent advances in the light wavelength for efficient cancer PTT have gradually shifted from the first NIR (NIR-I) biowindow (700–1000 nm) to the second NIR (NIR-II) biowindow (1000–1350 nm) owing to its intrinsic deeper tissue penetration ability and a higher maximum permissible exposure (MPE) value. Herein, we have prepared nickel sulphide (Ni9S8) nanoparticles (NPs) with a full-spectrum-absorption (400 nm–1100 nm) in the NIR region. By a fair comparison, it is found that the PTT using the NPs upon irradiation from an NIR-II (i.e., 1064 nm) laser is more efficient than that from an NIR-I (i.e., 808, 915, and 976 nm) laser. The large mass extinction coefficient value (22.18 L g−1 cm−1) and high photothermal conversion efficiency (46%) at 1064 nm make these NPs promising candidates for NIR-II photo-thermal therapy. This study will benefit future exploration and optimization of nickel-based photoabsorbers utilizing NIR-II light for photothermal applications.

Despite multifunctional theranostics hold vast potential in deep tissue bioimaging and tumor therapy, activatable nanomedicine with integration of precise diagnosis and effective treatment is usually achieved at the cost of complicated synthesis chemistries. Here, a facile way to design bioresponsive Ag 2 S-Ag Janus probes coated by polyethylene glycol (PEG) (denoted as AAP) is showed, active in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm). In tumor microenvironment, Ag part can yield hydroxyl radicals (·OH) by consuming H 2 O 2 for high-efficiency chemodynamic therapy (CDT), while Ag 2 S part has impressive photothermal therapy (PTT). The synergistic benefits from Ag and Ag 2 S parts further boosted CDT effect of AAP Janus probes with high photothermal conversion efficiency up to 56.8%. Moreover, multiple lines of evidence supported that extremely faint fluorescence of AAP Janus probes can be significantly activated by overexpressed levels of H 2 O 2 , showing bright NIR-II emission at ≈1270 nm with over 5.6 × 10 3 -fold increase in signal intensity. AAP Janus probes are easily activatable for NIR-II imaging for tumor-specific identification, and effectively ablate tumor tissues with tumor inhibition rate of 96.2%. This study expects that AAP Janus probe will open up a new route to achieve precise tumor diagnosis and treatment in the NIR-II window.

Autonomic nervous system disorders play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases. Regulating it is essential for preventing and treating acute ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). Photothermal neuromodulation is a nonimplanted technique, but the response temperature ranges of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and TWIK-related K + Channel 1 (TREK1) exhibit differences while being closely aligned, and the acute nature of VAs require that it must be rapid and precise. However, the low photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) still poses limitations in achieving rapid and precise treatment. Here, we achieve a nearly perfect blackbody absorption and a high PCE in the second near infrared (NIR-II) window (73.7% at 1064 nm) via a Pt nanoparticle shell (PtNP-shell). By precisely manipulating the photothermal effect, we successfully achieve rapid and precise multimodal neuromodulation encompassing neural activation (41.0–42.9 °C) and inhibition (45.0–46.9 °C) in a male canine model. The NIR-II photothermal modulation additionally achieves multimodal reversible autonomic modulation and confers protection against acute VAs associated with myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury in interventional therapy.
