Here we engineer rsmiRFPnano, a compact cyanobacteriochrome-derived photoswitchable PAT probe. With a molecular weight below 19 kDa, rsmiRFPnano efficiently incorporates biliverdin, exhibits high extinction coefficients in both photochromic states and demonstrates robust performance in live cells. We established rsmiRFPnano-based reporters for NF-κB and AP-1 pathways, which display low basal activity and strong activation-dependent responses. These reporters effectively visualized acute inflammation using noninvasive PAT in vivo, further validated through cellular-level spatial omics mapping. We then created photoswitchable nanobody probes, rsNIR-Fbs, stabilized upon antigen binding and rapidly degraded otherwise, enabling selective photoacoustic immuno-imaging of intracellular antigens in vivo. Together, these results establish rsmiRFPnano as an ultracompact and versatile platform for molecular PAT.</p>","PeriodicalId":18981,"journal":{"name":"Nature Methods","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":28.3,"publicationDate":"2026-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149183188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
