Near-infrared (NIR) luminescent materials have emerged as a growing field of interest,
particularly for imaging and optics applications in biology, chemistry, and physics. However …

The interaction between light and tissue such as absorption and scattering limits the
penetration depth and spatiotemporal resolution of in vivo fluorescence bioimaging in a …

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) has dopamine, GABA, and glutamate neurons, which have
been implicated in reward and aversion. Here, we determined whether VTA-glutamate or …

Optogenetic manipulation and optical imaging in the near-infrared range allow non-invasive
light-control and readout of cellular and organismal processes in deep tissues in vivo. Here …

Since mammalian tissue is relatively transparent to near-infrared (NIR) light, NIR fluorescent
proteins (FPs) engineered from bacterial phytochromes have become widely used probes …

Optical microscopy, owing to its noninvasiveness and subcellular resolution, enables in vivo
visualization of neuronal structure and function in the physiological context. Optical …

Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with proteostasis disturbances and
accumulation of misfolded α‐synuclein (α‐syn), a cytosolic protein present in high …

High transparency, low light-scattering, and low autofluorescence of mammalian tissues in
the near-infrared (NIR) spectral range (~ 650–900 nm) open a possibility for in vivo imaging …

Near-infrared (NIR)-emitting PbS quantum dots (QDs) are endowed with good stability, high
quantum yield, and long lifetime in the body, so they are promising agents in biological …

Fluorescent imaging in living animals gives an intuitive picture of the dynamic processes in
the complex environment within a living being. However, animal tissues present a …
