Cell-trappable fluorescent probes for nitric oxide visualization in living cells.

ABSTRACT: Two new cell-trappable fluorescent probes for nitric oxide (NO) are reported based on either incorporation of hydrolyzable esters or conjugation to aminodextran polymers. Both probes are highly selective for NO over other reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). The efficacy of these probes for the fluorescence imaging of nitric oxide produced endogenously in Raw 264.7 cells is demonstrated.

Seminaphthofluorescein-based fluorescent probes for imaging nitric oxide in live cells.

Project description:Fluorescent turn-on probes for nitric oxide based on seminaphthofluorescein scaffolds were prepared and spectroscopically characterized. The Cu(II) complexes of these fluorescent probes react with NO under anaerobic conditions to yield a 20-45-fold increase in integrated emission. The seminaphthofluorescein-based probes emit at longer wavelengths than the parent FL1 and FL2 fluorescein-based generations of NO probes, maintaining emission maxima between 550 and 625 nm. The emission profiles depend on the excitation wavelength; maximum fluorescence turn-on is achieved at excitations between 535 and 575 nm. The probes are highly selective for NO over other biologically relevant reactive nitrogen and oxygen species including NO(3)(-), NO(2)(-), HNO, ONOO(-), NO(2), OCl(-), and H(2)O(2). The seminaphthofluorescein-based probes can be used to visualize endogenously produced NO in live cells, as demonstrated using Raw 264.7 macrophages.

Red emission fluorescent probes for visualization of monoamine oxidase in living cells.

Project description:Here we report two novel red emission fluorescent probes for the highly sensitive and selective detection of monoamine oxidase (MAO) with large Stokes shift (227?nm). Both of the probes possess solid state fluorescence and can accomplish the identification of MAO on test papers. The probe MAO-Red-1 exhibited a detection limit down to 1.2??g mL(-1) towards MAO-B. Moreover, the cleavage product was unequivocally conformedby HPLC and LCMS and the result was in accordance with the proposed oxidative deamination mechanism. The excellent photostability of MAO-Red-1 was proved both in vitro and in vivo through fluorescent kinetic experiment and laser exposure experiment of confocal microscopy, respectively. Intracellular experiments also confirmed the low cytotoxity and exceptional cell imaging abilities of MAO-Red-1. It was validated both in HeLa and HepG2 cells that MAO-Red-1 was capable of reporting MAO activity through the variation of fluorescence intensity.

Selective and sensitive visualization of endogenous nitric oxide in living cells and animals by a Si-rhodamine deoxylactam-based near-infrared fluorescent probe.

Project description:Nitric oxide (NO) is a fundamental signaling molecule that regulates virtually every critical cellular function, and it is also a potent mediator of cellular damage in a wide range of conditions mainly via its secondary metabolite peroxynitrite (ONOO-). In this work, we present an o-phenylenediamine (OPD)-locked Si-rhodamine deoxylactam, i.e.deOxy-DALSiR, as a near-infrared fluorescent probe for the selective and sensitive detection of NO in living cells and bodies. Not only could the probe overcome the limitations suffered by widely used and commercialized OPD-type fluorescent NO probes, such as the possible interferences by dehydroascorbic acid/ascorbic acid/methylglyoxal (DHA/AA/MGO), pH-sensitive fluorescence output, and short excitation and emission wavelengths, but it can also avoid serious interference from cysteine (Cys) found in the rhodamine lactam-based fluorescent NO probes developed later. What's more, the probe is fairly sensitive for NO, as evidenced by its rapid fluorescence response rate (within seconds), huge fluorescence off-on ratio (6300-fold), and ultra-low detection limit (0.12 nM). Its effectiveness and practicability have been demonstrated by the successful imaging of endogenous NO in RAW 264.7 macrophages, pancreatic ?-cells, and endothelial EA.hy926 cells, as well as in inflamed and diabetic mouse models.

Visualizing inducible nitric-oxide synthase in living cells with a heme-binding fluorescent inhibitor.

Project description:The study of nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) physiology is constrained by the lack of suitable probes to detect NOS in living cells or animals. Here, we characterized a fluorescent inducible NOS (iNOS) inhibitor called PIF (pyrimidine imidazole FITC) and examined its utility for microscopic imaging of iNOS in living cells. PIF binding to iNOS displayed high affinity, isoform selectivity, and heme specificity, and was essentially irreversible. PIF was used to successfully image iNOS expressed in RAW264.7 cells, HEK293T cells, human A549 epithelial cells, and freshly obtained human lung epithelium. PIF was used to estimate a half-life for iNOS of 1.8 h in HEK293T cells. Our work reveals that fluorescent probes like PIF will be valuable for studying iNOS cell biology and in understanding the pathophysiology of diseases that involve dysfunctional iNOS expression.

Visualization of nitric oxide production in the mouse main olfactory bulb by a cell-trappable copper(II) fluorescent probe.

Project description:We report the visualization of NO production using fluorescence in tissue slices of the mouse main olfactory bulb. This discovery was possible through the use of a novel, cell-trappable probe for intracellular nitric oxide detection based on a symmetric scaffold with two NO-reactive sites. Ester moieties installed onto the fluorescent probe are cleaved by intracellular esterases to yield the corresponding negatively charged, cell-impermeable acids. The trappable probe Cu(2)(FL2E) and the membrane-impermeable acid derivative Cu(2)(FL2A) respond rapidly and selectively to NO in buffers that simulate biological conditions, and application of Cu(2)(FL2E) leads to detection of endogenously produced NO in cell cultures and olfactory bulb brain slices.

Imaging the nanomolar range of nitric oxide with an amplifier-coupled fluorescent indicator in living cells.

Project description:Nitric oxide (NO) is a small uncharged free radical that is involved in diverse physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms. NO is generated by three isoforms of NO synthase, endothelial, neuronal, and inducible ones. When generated in vascular endothelial cells, NO plays a key role in vascular tone regulation, in particular. Here, we describe an amplifier-coupled fluorescent indicator for NO to visualize physiological nanomolar dynamics of NO in living cells (detection limit of 0.1 nM). This genetically encoded high-sensitive indicator revealed that approximately 1 nM of NO, which is enough to relax blood vessels, is generated in vascular endothelial cells even in the absence of shear stress. The nanomolar range of basal endothelial NO thus revealed appears to be fundamental to vascular homeostasis.

Blinking Fluorescent Probes for Tubulin Nanoscopy in Living and Fixed Cells.

Project description:Here we report a small molecule tubulin probe for single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy and MINFLUX nanoscopy, which can be used in living and fixed cells. We explored a series of taxane derivatives containing spontaneously blinking far-red dye hydroxymethyl silicon-rhodamine (HMSiR) and found that the linker length profoundly affects the probe permeability and off-targeting in living cells. The best performing probe, HMSiR-tubulin, is composed of cabazitaxel and the 6'-regioisomer of HMSiR bridged by a C6 linker. Microtubule diameter of ≤50 nm was routinely measured in SMLM experiments on living and fixed cells. HMSiR-tubulin allows a complementary use of different nanoscopy techniques for investigating microtubule functions and developing imaging methods. For the first time, we resolved the inner microtubule diameter of 16 ± 5 nm by optical nanoscopy and thereby demonstrated the utility of a self-blinking dye for MINFLUX imaging.

Visualization of maltose uptake in living yeast cells by fluorescent nanosensors.

Project description:Compartmentation of metabolic reactions and thus transport within and between cells can be understood only if we know subcellular distribution based on nondestructive dynamic monitoring. Currently, methods are not available for in vivo metabolite imaging at cellular or subcellular levels. Limited information derives from methods requiring fixation or fractionation of tissue (1, 2). We thus developed a flexible strategy for designing protein-based nanosensors for a wide spectrum of solutes, allowing analysis of changes in solute concentration in living cells. We made use of bacterial periplasmic binding proteins (PBPs), where we show that, on binding of the substrate, PBPs transform their hinge-bend movement into increased fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between two coupled green fluorescent proteins. By using the maltose-binding protein as a prototype, nanosensors were constructed allowing in vitro determination of FRET changes in a concentration-dependent fashion. For physiological applications, mutants with different binding affinities were generated, allowing dynamic in vivo imaging of the increase in cytosolic maltose concentration in single yeast cells. Control sensors allow the exclusion of the effect from other cellular or environmental parameters on ratio imaging. Thus the myriad of PBPs recognizing a wide spectrum of different substrates is suitable for FRET-based in vivo detection, providing numerous scientific, medical, and environmental applications.

Selective turn-on fluorescent probes for imaging hydrogen sulfide in living cells.

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is an important biological messenger but few biologically-compatible methods are available for its detection. Here we report two bright fluorescent probes that are selective for H(2)S over cysteine, glutathione and other reactive sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen species. Both probes are demonstrated to detect H(2)S in live cells.

Selective Labeling of Proteins on Living Cell Membranes Using Fluorescent Nanodiamond Probes.

Project description:The impeccable photostability of fluorescent nanodiamonds (FNDs) is an ideal property for use in fluorescence imaging of proteins in living cells. However, such an application requires highly specific labeling of the target proteins with FNDs. Furthermore, the surface of unmodified FNDs tends to adsorb biomolecules nonspecifically, which hinders the reliable targeting of proteins with FNDs. Here, we combined hyperbranched polyglycerol modification of FNDs with the ?-lactamase-tag system to develop a strategy for selective imaging of the protein of interest in cells. The combination of these techniques enabled site-specific labeling of Interleukin-18 receptor alpha chain, a membrane receptor, with FNDs, which eventually enabled tracking of the diffusion trajectory of FND-labeled proteins on the membrane surface.
