摘要：Accurate and non-invasive monitoring of allograft posttransplant is essential for early detection of acute cellular rejection and determines the long-term survival of the graft. Clinically, tissue biopsy is the most effective approach for diagnosing transplant rejection. Nonetheless, the procedure is invasive and potentially triggers organ failure. This work aims to design and apply GzmB-responsive nanosensors (GBRNs) that can readily size- change in graft tissues. Subsequently, we investigate the activity of serine protease granzyme B by generating a direct colorimetric urinary readout for non-invasive detection of transplant rejection in under 1 h. In preclinical heart graft mice models of transplant rejection, GBRNs were cleaved by GzmB and excreted by the kidneys via accurate nanometre-size glomerular filtration. By exploiting the catalytic activity of ultrasmall gold nanoclusters, GBRNs urinalysis promotes ultrasensitive surveillance of rejection episodes with a receiver operator character-istic curve area under the curve of 0.896 as well as a 95% confidence interval of about 0.7701-1.000. Besides, the catalytic activity of gold nanoclusters in urine can be detected at point-of-care testing to predict the immunity responses in mice with insufficient immunosuppressive therapy. Therefore, this non-invasive, sensitive, and quantitative method is a robust and informative approach for rapid and routine monitoring of transplant allo-grafts without invasive biopsy
