Abstract
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), as a member of the cholinesterase family, is widely expressed in various tissues and cell types. Abnormal activity levels of BChE in organ systems or cells are usually associated with diseases. Therefore, developing effective methods for monitoring the distribution and activity of BChE in vivo is significant for exploring the physiological effects of BChE in organisms and improving prophylaxis, diagnosis or therapy of diseases. In this study, a dihydroxanthene-derived fluorescent probe CHQ-B with near-infrared (NIR) excitation and emission maxima was developed for visualizing endogenous BChE in vivo. This probe exhibits superior selectivity and sensitivity towards BChE, as well as low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility to biosamples. Furthermore, efficient and robust fluorescence imaging of the distribution and activity of BChE in diabetic mouse models confirmed the high expression of BChE induced by diabetes. Results of experiments demonstrated that CHQ-B is a promising fluorescence imaging tool for exploring butyrylcholinesterase expression in organisms during researches of relationships between BChE expression and various diseases.
期刊介绍:
Dyes and Pigments covers the scientific and technical aspects of the chemistry and physics of dyes, pigments and their intermediates. Emphasis is placed on the properties of the colouring matters themselves rather than on their applications or the system in which they may be applied.
Thus the journal accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments and intermediates, their physical or chemical properties, e.g. spectroscopic, surface, solution or solid state characteristics, the physical aspects of their preparation, e.g. precipitation, nucleation and growth, crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, their photochemical, ecological or biological properties and the relationship between colour and chemical constitution. However, papers are considered which deal with the more fundamental aspects of colourant application and of the interactions of colourants with substrates or media.
The journal will interest a wide variety of workers in a range of disciplines whose work involves dyes, pigments and their intermediates, and provides a platform for investigators with common interests but diverse fields of activity such as cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research, polymers, etc.
