A real-time ratiometric fluorescent probe for imaging of SO₂ derivatives in mitochondria of living cells.

ABSTRACT: 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.

Reversible Reaction-Based Fluorescent Probe for Real-Time Imaging of Glutathione Dynamics in Mitochondria.

Project description:We report a mitochondria-specific glutathione (GSH) probe-designated as Mito-RealThiol (MitoRT)-that can monitor in vivo real-time mitochondrial glutathione dynamics, and apply this probe to follow mitochondrial GSH dynamic changes in living cells for the first time. MitoRT can be utilized in confocal microscopy, super-resolution fluorescence imaging, and flow cytometry systems. Using MitoRT, we demonstrate that cells have a high priority to maintain the GSH level in mitochondria compared to the cytosol not only under normal growing conditions but also upon oxidative stress.

Real Time Imaging and Dynamics of Hippocampal Zn2+ under Epileptic Condition Using a Ratiometric Fluorescent Probe.

Project description:Zinc, the essential trace element in human body exists either in the bound or free state, for both structural and functional roles. Insights on Zn2+ distribution and its dynamics are essential in view of the fact that Zn2+ dyshomeostasis is a risk factor for epileptic seizures, Alzheimer's disease, depression, etc. Herein, a bipyridine bridged bispyrrole (BP) probe is used for ratiometric imaging and quantification of Zn2+ in hippocampal slices. The green fluorescence emission of BP shifts towards red in the presence of Zn2+. The probe is used to detect and quantify the exogenous and endogenous Zn2+ in glioma cells and hippocampal slices. The dynamics of chelatable zinc ions during epileptic condition is studied in the hippocampal neurons, in vitro wherein the translocation of Zn2+ from presynaptic to postsynaptic neuronal bodies is imaged and ratiometrically quantified. Raman mapping technique is used to confirm the dynamics of Zn2+ under epileptic condition. Finally, the Zn2+ distribution was imaged in vivo in epileptic rats and the total Zn2+ in rat brain was quantified. The results favour the use of BP as an excellent Zn2+ imaging probe in biological system to understand the zinc associated diseases and their management.

A two-photon ratiometric fluorescent probe for real-time imaging and quantification of NO in neural stem cells during activation regulation.

Project description:Developing a novel tool capable of real-time monitoring and accurate quantification of NO is critical to understanding its role in physiological and pathological processes. Herein, a two-photon ratiometric fluorescent probe (NOP) was developed for real-time imaging and quantification of NO based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer-photoinduced electron transfer (FRET-PET). In this developed probe, coumarin (CM) and naphthalimide with o-phenylenediamine (NPM) were rationally designed as a fluorescent donor and acceptor, respectively, to enable a ratiometric fluorescence response to NO. The developed NO probe demonstrated good detection linearity with the concentration of NO in the range of 0.100-200 μM, with a detection limit of 19.5 ± 1.00 nM. Considering the advantages of high selectivity, good accuracy and rapid dynamic response (<15 s), the developed NO probe was successfully applied for real-time imaging and accurate quantification of NO in neural stem cells (NSCs) and different regions of mouse brain tissue with a penetration depth of 350 μm. Using this powerful tool, it was found that NO regulated the activation and differentiation of quiescent NSCs (qNSCs). In addition, NO-induced differentiation of qNSCs into neurons was found to be dose-dependent: 50.0 μM NO caused about 50.0% of qNSCs to differentiate into neurons. Moreover, different regions of the mouse brain were observed to be closely related to the concentration of NO, and the concentration of NO in the DG region was found to be lower than that in the S1BF, CA1, LD and CPu of the Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse brain. The symptoms of AD mice were significantly improved through the treatment with NO-activated NSCs in the DG region.

A targetable fluorescent probe for imaging hydrogen peroxide in the mitochondria of living cells.

Project description:We present the design, synthesis, and biological applications of mitochondria peroxy yellow 1 (MitoPY1), a new type of bifunctional fluorescent probe for imaging hydrogen peroxide levels within the mitochondria of living cells. MitoPY1 combines a chemoselective boronate-based switch and a mitochondrial-targeting phosphonium moiety for detection of hydrogen peroxide localized to cellular mitochondria. Confocal microscopy and flow cytometry experiments in a variety of mammalian cell types show that MitoPY1 can visualize localized changes in mitochondrial hydrogen peroxide concentrations generated by situations of oxidative stress.

A ratiometric fluorescent probe for real-time monitoring of intracellular glutathione fluctuations in response to cisplatin.

Project description:Real-time imaging of fluctuations in intracellular glutathione (GSH) concentrations is critical to understanding the mechanism of GSH-related cisplatin-resistance. Here, we describe a ratiometric fluorescence probe based on a reversible Michael addition reaction of GSH with the vinyl-functionalized boron-dipyrromethene (4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene or BODIPY) 1. The probe was applied for real-time monitoring of the fluctuations in GSH levels in cells under cisplatin treatment. Notably, in cellular cisplatin-sensitive A549 cells, GSH concentrations rose until cell death, while in cisplatin-resistant cell lines, GSH levels first rose to the maximum then fell back to the initial concentration without significant apoptosis. These results indicate that different trends in GSH fluctuation can help distinguish cisplatin-resistant from cisplatin-sensitive cells. As such, this study has shown that probe 1 may potentially be used for real-time monitoring of intracellular GSH levels in response to therapeutics.

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

Project description: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.

Construction of a lysosome-targetable ratiometric fluorescent probe for H2O2 tracing and imaging in living cells and an inflamed model.

Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), an important reactive oxygen species (ROS) with unique destructive oxidation properties, can be produced in lysosomes to fight off pathogens. Although many fluorescent probes have been developed for the detection and imaging of H2O2, the development of a ratiometric fluorescent probe for H2O2 detection and imaging in lysosomes and an inflammation model remains rather scarce. Therefore, it is important to develop an efficient tool for monitoring H2O2 in inflamed tissues to evaluate the physiological and pathological relationship between inflammation and lysosomal H2O2. In this work, a new naphthalimide-based lysosome-targeting fluorescent probe (NPT-H2O2) for ratiometric detection and imaging was developed in vitro and in vivo. The probe exhibited two well-resolved emission peaks separated by 125 nm, rapid response (<40 s), and high selectivity and sensitivity toward H2O2, as well as low cytotoxicity in vitro. Inspired by prominent features of these results, we further successfully applied NPT-H2O2 for H2O2 imaging with a dual-channel in living cells, demonstrating that our probe NPT-H2O2 was targeted in the lysosomes. Finally, NPT-H2O2 was used for H2O2 detection in inflamed tissues and achieved satisfactory results. We predict that our probe can be used as a powerful tool to reveal the relationship between physiology and pathology of inflammation and lysosomal H2O2.

Imaging of formaldehyde in plants with a ratiometric fluorescent probe.

Project description:The fluorescence monitoring of formaldehyde in real environmental samples and live plant tissues is of great importance for physiological and pathological studies. However, there is a lack of suitable chemical tools to directly trace and measure the formaldehyde activity in bio-systems, and developing effective and, in particular, selective sensors for mapping formaldehyde in live tissues still remains a great challenge. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that the ratiometric fluorescence monitoring of formaldehyde in live plant tissues is achieved with a newly developed ratiometric fluorescent probe, FAP, which effectively eliminated interference from other comparative analytes. Live tissue analyses reveal that FAP can potentially detect exogenous and endogenous formaldehyde in live Arabidopsis thaliana tissues, exposing a potential application for biological and pathological studies of formaldehyde.

A mitochondria-targeted ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe for biological zinc ions detection.

Project description:A mitochondria-targeted ratiometric two-photon fluorescent probe (Mito-MPVQ) for biological zinc ions detection was developed based on quinolone platform. Mito-MPVQ showed large red shifts (68 nm) and selective ratiometric signal upon Zn(2+) binding. The ratio of emission intensity (I488 nm/I420 nm) increases dramatically from 0.45 to 3.79 (ca. 8-fold). NMR titration and theoretical calculation confirmed the binding of Mito-MPVQ and Zn(2+). Mito-MPVQ also exhibited large two-photon absorption cross sections (150 GM) at nearly 720 nm and insensitivity to pH within the biologically relevant pH range. Cell imaging indicated that Mito-MPVQ could efficiently located in mitochondria and monitor mitochondrial Zn(2+) under two-photon excitation with low cytotoxicity.

A FRET-Based Near-Infrared Fluorescent Probe for Ratiometric Detection of Cysteine in Mitochondria.

Project description:We report a near-infrared fluorescent probe A for the ratiometric detection of cysteine based on FRET from a coumarin donor to a near-infrared rhodamine acceptor. Upon addition of cysteine, the coumarin fluorescence increased dramatically up to 18-fold and the fluorescence of the rhodamine acceptor decreased moderately by 45 % under excitation of the coumarin unit. Probe A has been used to detect cysteine concentration changes in live cells ratiometrically and to visualize fluctuations in cysteine concentrations induced by oxidation stress through treatment with hydrogen peroxide or lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Finally, probe A was successfully applied for the in vivo imaging of Drosophila melanogaster larvae to measure cysteine concentration changes.
