Consequently, there is an urgent need to enhance detection and treatment strategies for critical diseases, including cancer and pathogenic microorganisms. Conjugated oligomers, formed by a limited number of repeating conjugated units linked through covalent bonds, exhibit a high potential for various applications in biological monitoring and disease diagnosis due to their controllable molecular weight, precise molecular structure, and excellent photostability. Therefore, it is particularly essential to design and optimize the structure of conjugated oligomers to improve their biocompatibility and therapeutic efficacy. In this review article, we summarize recent advancements in applying conjugated oligomers in imaging, cancer therapy, and antibacterial treatment. Furthermore, this article critically examines the challenges in their biological applications, underscoring the need for continued innovation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules30183719","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,12]],"date-time":"2025-09-12T12:34:03Z","timestamp":1757680443000},"page":"3719","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Design and Application of Conjugated Oligomers for Imaging and Anticancer and Antibacterial Treatment"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Jianing","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition and Health, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Precision Nutrition and Food Quality, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Min","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition and Health, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Precision Nutrition and Food Quality, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuxuan","family":"Ding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition and Health, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Precision Nutrition and Food Quality, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lili","family":"Luo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition and Health, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Precision Nutrition and Food Quality, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yilin","family":"Zuo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition and Health, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Precision Nutrition and Food Quality, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4827-6009","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Libing","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition and Health, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Precision Nutrition and Food Quality, China Agricultural University, Beijing 100193, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"7","article-title":"Cancer statistics, 2022","volume":"72","author":"Siegel","year":"2022","journal-title":"CA Cancer J.
