Sensitive and specific detection of peroxynitrite and imaging of inflammation by a "simple" AIE bioprobe
A luminogenic bioprobe TPE-DMAB for simple and specific detection of peroxynitrite (ONOO − ) has been developed. TPE-DMAB exhibits aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristic and shows fluorescence enhancement (up to 100-fold) upon cleavage of phenylboronic moieties by ONOO − . TPE-DMAB can be...

Zusammenfassung: | A luminogenic bioprobe
TPE-DMAB
for simple and specific detection of peroxynitrite (ONOO
−
) has been developed.
TPE-DMAB
exhibits aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristic and shows fluorescence enhancement (up to 100-fold) upon cleavage of phenylboronic moieties by ONOO
−
.
TPE-DMAB
can be facilely synthesized and displays excellent specificity and sensitivity towards ONOO
−
(detection limit of 54 nM). Based on these novel properties of
TPE-DMAB
, we further produced its encapsulated nanoparticles and successfully used them to detect endogenous ONOO
−
in macrophage cells and visualize the inflammation sites of mice, verifying the great potential of
TPE-DMAB
for biological applications.
A facile synthesized AIE bioprobe was developed to detect peroxynitrite sensitively and specifically. This bioprobe can realize both
in vitro
ONOO
−
detection and
in vivo
visualization of inflammation. |
