Early detection of skin diseases is imperative for their effective treatment. However, fluorescence molecular probes that allow this are rare. The first activatable near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent molecular probe is reported for sensitive imaging of keloid cells, skin cells from abnormal scar fibrou...
