(a) Schematic representation of the mechanism of action of Cy-SS-MTX theranostic agent in the presence of glutathione (GSH); (b) presentation of the positive increase in photoacoustic signal of Cy-SS-MTX in the presence of GSH; (c) PA intensity of Cy-SS-MTX and responses of Cy-SS-MTX to GSH upon excitation at 680 and 808 nm, respectively, in varying concentrations; (d) the corresponding illustrations of PAI; and (e) in vivo photoacoustic imaging of tumor-bearing mice at 0/0.5/1/4/8/24 h after intravenous injection.
