Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic Molecular Imaging of MicroRNA in Living Cells by DNA‐Programmed Nanoparticle Disassembly
TL;DR: It is shown that a single miRNA molecule could catalyze the disassembly of multiple QDs with the GNP through a DNA-programmed thermodynamically driven entropy gain process, yielding significantly amplified QD photoluminescence (PL) for miRNA imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strategies for in vivo imaging of enzyme activity: an overview and recent advances
TL;DR: This critical review examines the approaches in recent literature to in vivo imaging of the activity of a variety of enzyme targets with an emphasis on the chemical perspective of probe design, structure and function.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-step DNA-programmed growth of luminescent and biofunctionalized nanocrystals
TL;DR: It is shown that a single designer ligand--a chimeric DNA molecule--can controllably program both the growth and the biofunctionalization of the nanocrystals, which makes them suitable for bioimaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
DNA‐Templated Magnetic Nanoparticle‐Quantum Dot Polymers for Ultrasensitive Capture and Detection of Circulating Tumor Cells
TL;DR: A new class of DNA‐templated magnetic nanoparticle‐quantum dot (QD)‐aptamer copolymers (MQAPs) is developed for rapid magnetic isolation of CTCs from human blood with high capture efficiency and purity approaching 80%.
Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of recent advances in quantum dots for biomedical applications.
