Cellular metabolic activity marker via selective turn-ON detection of transporter protein using nitrobenzoxadiazole-based fluorescent reporter.


ABSTRACT: A nitrobenzoxadiazole-based fluoroprobe (NBD-Bu) is designed to probe cellular metabolic activity in cancer and normal cells. NBD-Bu shows a significant fluorescence enhancement upon selective binding to the transport protein serum albumin in PBS buffer at ambient conditions. Encouraged by this finding, the site- specificity of NBD-Bu has been explored through a competitive displacement assay in the presence of site-specific markers such as warfarin and ibuprofen. Notably, even at micromolar concentrations, the probe possesses the ability to displace the site marker drug ibuprofen, efficiently. Subsequently, high-resolution fluorescence imaging results consolidated the potential of NBD-Bu for detection of abnormal cellular metabolic activity.
