Journal ArticleDOI

Oxygenic Hybrid Semiconducting Nanoparticles for Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy.

TL;DR: This study not only reports an in situ synthetic method to coat organic nanoparticles but also develops a tumor-microenvironment-sensitive theranostic nanoagent to overcome hypoxia for amplified therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient ratiometric fluorescence probe based on dual-emission quantum dots hybrid for on-site determination of copper ions.

TL;DR: A ratiometric fluorescence probe designed by hybridizing dual-emission quantum dots (QDs) and demonstrated its efficiency for on-site visual determination of copper ions, especially for visually monitoring copper residues on herb leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent progress in the development of near-infrared organic photothermal and photodynamic nanotherapeutics.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the synthesis and application of NIR-absorbing organic nanoparticles as phototherapeutic nanoagents for cancer phototherapy and the present challenges and potential of imaging guided PTT/PDT combined therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulating Near-Infrared Photodynamic Properties of Semiconducting Polymer Nanotheranostics for Optimized Cancer Therapy.

TL;DR: The self-regulated photodynamic properties of nanoceria-doped SPN not only result in dramatically reduced nonspecific damage to normal tissue under NIR laser irradiation but also lead to significantly enhanced photodynamic efficacy for cancer therapy in a murine mouse model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative Cleavage-Based Near-Infrared Fluorescent Probe for Hypochlorous Acid Detection and Myeloperoxidase Activity Evaluation

TL;DR: A near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe was synthesized and demonstrated to be highly selective in reaction with hypochlorous acid (HOCl), an endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by myeloperoxidase in neutrophils.
