Bioactivity | QMT-CBT is a near-infrared aggregation-induced luminescent photon. After activation of caspase1 (Cas1), QMT-CBT undergoes a CBT-Cys click reaction to form a cyclic dimer QMT-Dimer (the first aggregate) and assembles into nanoparticles (the second aggregate), turning the AIE signal "on" to enhance imaging of Alzheimer's disease (AD)[1]. |
