Abstract

A new near-infrared AIE luminogen (TPE-AC) with high specificity, good biocompatibility and excellent photostability is designed and synthesized for lipid droplet (LD) imaging in cells. TPE-AC can monitor the process of LD accumulation in cells, thus making it potential for the diagnosis of early-stage fat-related diseases.
