Summary: | The pathological process involves a range of intrinsic biochemical markers. The detection of multiple biological parameters is imperative for providing precise diagnostic information on diseases. In vivo multichannel fluorescence biosensing facilitates the acquisition of biochemical information at different levels, such as tissue, cellular, and molecular, with rapid feedback, high sensitivity, and high spatiotemporal resolution. Notably, fluorescence imaging in the near-infrared-II (NIR-II) window (950–1700 nm) promises deeper optical penetration depth and diminished interferential autofluorescence compared with imaging in the visible (400–700 nm) and near-infrared-I (NIR-I, 700–950 nm) regions, making it a promising option for in vivo multichannel biosensing toward clinical practice. Furthermore, the use of advanced NIR-II fluorophores supports the development of biosensing with spectra-domain, lifetime-domain, and fluorescence-lifetime modes. This review summarizes the versatile designs and functions of NIR-II fluorophores for in vivo multichannel biosensing in various scenarios, including biological process monitoring, cellular tracking, and pathological analysis. Additionally, the review briefly discusses desirable traits required for the clinical translation of NIR-II fluorophores such as safety, long-wavelength emission, and clear components. |
