Supramolecular assemblies are essential components of living organisms. Cellular
scaffolds, such as the cytoskeleton or the cell membrane, are formed via secondary …

Traditional biochemical methods for enzyme detection are mainly based on antibody-based
immunoassays, which lack the ability to monitor the spatiotemporal distribution and, in …

Enzymatic reactions and noncovalent (ie, supramolecular) interactions are two fundamental
nongenetic attributes of life. Enzymatic noncovalent synthesis (ENS) refers to a process …

Living organisms fabricate biomacromolecules such as DNA, RNA, and proteins by the self-
assembly process. The research on the mechanism of biomacromolecule formation also …

Directed self-assembly of small molecules in living systems could enable a myriad of
applications in biology and medicine, and already this has been used widely to synthesize …

Fluorescence imaging utilizing traditional organic fluorophores is extensively applied in both
cellular and in vivo studies. However, it faces significant obstacles, such as low signal‐to …

Abstract Development of photothermal materials which are able to harness sunlight and
convert it to thermal energy seems attractive. Besides carbon-based nanomaterials …

The use of nanoparticles in medicine (nanomedicine) has recently become an intensely
studied field. Nanoparticles carrying drugs and imaging agents have already reached the …

Recent days, aggregatable nanoparticles, which can specifically respond to certain stimulus,
have shown great potential in tumor-targeted drug delivery with prolonged retention and …

Target-enabled bioorthogonal reaction and self-assembly of a small-molecule probe into
supramolecules have shown promise for molecular imaging. In this paper, we report a new …
