Quantum Dot-Based Probes for Labeling and Imaging of Cells that Express Matrix Metalloproteinases.


ABSTRACT: The practical synthesis of novel multivalent fluorescent quantum-dot-based probes to target cellular matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) (MT-MMPs) is reported. We show that these probes, which are decorated with a nanomolar water-soluble MMP inhibitor, can be used to label preferentially the surface of cancer cells that are known to express MMPs while no binding was observed on cells that do not.
