A Sensitive and Selective Fluorescent Probe for Real-Time Detection and Imaging of Hypochlorous Acid in Living Cells.

ABSTRACT: Hypochlorous acid (HClO), a reactive oxygen species, plays an essential role in the processes of physiology and pathology via reacting with most biological molecules. The abnormal level of HClO may cause inflammation, especially arthritis. To further understand its key role in inflammation, in situ detection of HClO is necessary. Herein, a water-soluble small molecule fluorescent probe (HDI-HClO) is employed to monitor and identify trace amounts of HClO in the biological system. In the presence of HClO, the probe releases a hydroxyl group emitting strong fluorescence because of the restoration of the intramolecular charge transfer process. Furthermore, this probe displays a 150-fold fluorescence enhancement accompanied by a large Stokes shift and a lower detection limit (8.3 nM). Moreover, the probe can make a rapid response to HClO within 8 s, which provides the possibility of real-time monitoring of intracellular HClO. Based on the advantages of rapid dynamics, good water solubility, and excellent biocompatibility, this probe could effectively monitor the fluctuations of exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells. The fluorescence imaging of HDI-HClO indicated that it is an excellent potential approach for comprehending the relationship between inflammation and HClO.

A New Phenylazo-Based Fluorescent Probe for Sensitive Detection of Hypochlorous Acid in Aqueous Solution.

Project description:In this paper, we designed and synthesized a novel phenylazo-based fluorescent probe (RHN) for the sensing and imaging of hypochlorous acid (HClO) in mitochondria in living cells. In this process, HClO promoted the oxidation of the phenylazo group to generate a free Rhodol fluorophore moiety, which in turn restored strong fluorescence and realized the detection of HClO. As expected, RHN exhibited high selectivity, high sensitivity and rapid response, with detection limits as low as 22 nM (1.155 ng/mL). Importantly, the results of the cell imaging experiments indicated that RHN has the ability to image and sense HClO in mitochondria, which is of great significance for exploration of the specific role of HClO in both the immune system and diseases.

A Highly Selective Fluorescent Probe for Hypochlorous Acid in Living Cells Based on a Naphthalene Derivative.

Project description:Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) was crucial for maintaining the homeostasis in cells and plays vital roles in many physiological and pathological processes. In this work, a highly selective fluorescent probe for hypochlorous acid in living cells was constructed and prepared based on a naphthalene derivative. A naphthalene derivative was utilized as the fluorescent group, and N,N-dimethylthiocarbamate was applied as the selective recognition site for HOCl. Before adding HOCl, the fluorescent probe exhibited weak fluorescence. Upon adding HOCl, the fluorescent probe displayed remarkable fluorescence enhancement. The fluorescence intensity at 502 nm showed a linear response to the concentration of HOCl from 3.0 × 10-7 to 1.0 × 10-5 mol·L-1. The detection limit was estimated to be 1.5 × 10-7 mol·L-1 for HOCl. The fluorescent probe showed fast response and outstanding selectivity toward HOCl. It owned good biocompatibility and had also been successfully applied in the confocal imaging of exogenous and endogenous HOCl in living cells.

A New Quinone Based Fluorescent Probe for High Sensitive and Selective Detection of Biothiols and Its Application in Living Cell Imaging.

Project description:In view of the vital role of biothiols in many physiological processes, the development of simple and efficient probe for the detection of biothiols is of great medical significance. In this work, we demonstrate the use of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ), which respond rapidly to biothiols especially to glutathione, as a new fluorescent probe for the selective detection and bioimaging of biothiols. This new fluorescent probe can distinguish glutathione from cysteine and homocysteine easily under physiological concentration and detect glutathione quickly within three minutes. This probe exhibits high selectivity to biothiols and the detection limit was determined to be 3.08 × 10-9 M for glutathione, 8.55 × 10-8 M for cysteine, and 2.17 × 10-9 M for homocysteine, respectively. The sensing mechanism was further explored by density functional theory (DFT) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiment; results showed that the interaction forces between the probe and biothiols were electrostatic interaction. In addition, the probe has been successfully applied to the detection of biothiols in Eca9706 cells by fluorescence confocal imaging technology.

A highly selective and sensitive near-infrared fluorescent probe for imaging of hydrogen sulphide in living cells and mice.

Project description:Hydrogen sulphide (H2S), the third endogenous gaseous signalling molecule, has attracted attention in biochemical research. The selective detection of H2S in living systems is essential for studying its functions. Fluorescence detection methods have become useful tools to explore the physiological roles of H2S because of their real-time and non-destructive characteristics. Herein we report a near-infrared fluorescent probe, NIR-HS, capable of tracking H2S in living organisms. With high sensitivity, good selectivity and low cytotoxicity, NIR-HS was able to recognize both the exogenous and endogenous H2S in living cells. More importantly, it realized the visualization of endogenous H2S generated in cells overexpressing cystathionine ?-synthase (CBS), one of the enzymes responsible for producing endogenous H2S. The probe was also successfully applied to detect both the exogenous and endogenous H2S in living mice. The superior sensing properties of the probe render it a valuable research tool in the H2S-related medical research.

A BODIPY-Based Far-Red-Absorbing Fluorescent Probe for Hypochlorous Acid Imaging.

Project description:Hypochlorous acid (HClO) is produced by white blood cells to defend against injury and bacteria. However, as one of the reactive oxygen species, high intracellular HClO concentration could lead to chronic diseases that affect the cardiovascular and nervous systems. To monitor HClO concentrations in bio-samples, the fluorescent probe is preferred to have: a) absorbability in the far-red window with reduced light-toxicity and improved tissue penetration depth, b) ratiometric feature for accurate analysis. In this study, we reported a far-red ratiometric HClO fluorescence probe based on BODIPY chromophore and aldoxime sensing group. Not only the color change of the probe solution can be detected by naked eyes, but also the emission ratios (I645/I670) showed a significant increase upon the introduction of HClO. More importantly, the feasibility of HClO monitoring in bio-samples was demonstrated in vitro using a confocal microscope.

Rational design of a selective and sensitive "turn-on" fluorescent probe for monitoring and imaging hydrogen peroxide in living cells.

Project description:As one type of reactive oxygen species (ROS), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a key role in regulating a variety of cellular functions. Herein, a fluorescent probe N-Py-BO was well designed and synthesized and its ability for detecting H2O2 by fluorescence intensity was evaluated. In the design, the arylboronate ester group was acted as a reaction site for H2O2. Upon reaction with H2O2 under physiological conditions, the boronate moiety in the probe was oxidized, followed by detachment from the probe and as a result, a "turn-on" fluorescence response for H2O2 was acquired. Due to the D-A structure formation between N,N'-dimethylaminobenzene and the -CN group and the linkage by thiophene and C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bonds to increase the conjugate length, this probe showed a remarkable red shift of emission wavelength (650 nm) as well as a large Stokes shift (214 nm). An excellent linear relation with concentrations of H2O2 ranging from 2.0 to 200 μM and a good selectivity over other biological species were obtained. Importantly, taking advantage of the low toxicity and good biocompatibility, the developed probe was successfully applied to monitoring and imaging H2O2 and its level fluctuation in living cells, which provided a powerful tool for evaluation of cellular oxidative stress and understanding the pathophysiological process of H2O2-related diseases.

A real-time ratiometric fluorescent probe for imaging of SO<sub>2</sub> derivatives in mitochondria of living cells.

Project description:A real-time ratiometric fluorescent probe (IN-CZ) for highly selective detection of sulfite was designed and synthesized, which is based on modulating the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) of the hemicyanine dye platform. The mechanism of using the probe is mainly through the Michael addition that occurs between IN-CZ and sulfite with a detection limit of 2.99 × 10-5 M. IN-CZ displays a fast response (within 1 minute) and is highly selective for SO3 2-/HSO3 - over ROS, biologically relevant ions, biological mercaptans and other reactive species. More importantly, IN-CZ was suitable for ratiometric fluorescence imaging in living cells, by real-time monitoring of SO3 2-/HSO3 - changes in mitochondria targeted in living cells.

Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Combined with Real-Time Fluorescent Probe for Mycoplasma pneumoniae Detection.

Project description:Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) is one of the major causes of community-acquired pneumonia, accounting for 20-40% of total cases. Rapid and accurate detection of M. pneumoniae is crucial for the diagnosis and rational selection of antibiotics. In this study, we set up a real-time recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) assay to detect the conserved gene CARDS of M. pneumoniae. The amplification can be finished in 20 min at a wide temperature range from 37-41 °C. The limit of detection of RPA assay was 10 fg per microliter. Cross-reaction with commonly detected respiratory pathogens was not observed using RPA assay. Among clinical sputum samples, the detection rate of RPA assay and real-time PCR assay was 48.4% (92/190) and 46.3% (88/190), respectively (p = 0.68). Therefore, the RPA assay for M. pneumoniae detection is rapid and easy to use and may serve as a promising test for early diagnosis of M. pneumoniae infection.

A novel near-infrared fluorescent probe for sensitive detection of β-galactosidase in living cells.

Project description:A novel near-infrared fluorescent probe for β-galactosidase has been developed based on a hemicyanine skeleton, which is conjugated with a d-galactose residue via a glycosidic bond. The probe serves as a substrate of β-galactosidase and displays rapid and sensitive turn-on fluorescent responses to β-galactosidase in aqueous solution. A 12.8-fold enhancement of fluorescence intensity at 703 nm was observed after incubation of 10 nM of β-galactosidase with 5 μM probe for 10 min. The probe can sensitively detect as little as 0.1 nM of β-galactosidase and shows linear responses to the enzyme concentration below 1.4 nM. The kinetic study showed that the probe has high binding affinity to β-galactosidase with Km = 3.6 μM. The probe was used to detect β-galactosidase in living cells by employing the premature cell senescence model. The probe exhibited strong fluorescent signals in senescent cells but not in normal cells, which demonstrates that the probe is able to detect the endogenous senescence-associated β-galactosidase in living cells.
