Specific identification and monitoring of senescent cells are essential for the in-depth understanding and regulation of senescence-related life processes and diseases. Fluorescent sensors providing real-time and in situ information with spatiotemporal resolution are unparalleled tools and have contributed greatly to this field. This review focuses on the recent progress in fluorescent sensors for molecularly targeted imaging and real-time tracking of cellular senescence. The molecular design, sensing mechanisms, and biological activities of the sensors are discussed. The sensors are categorized by the types of markers and targeting ligands. Accordingly, their molecular recognition and fluorescent performance towards senescence biomarkers are summarized. Finally, the perspective and challenges in this field are discussed, which are expected to assist future design of next-generation sensors for monitoring cellular senescence.
