Abstract
Glyoxal (GL) is a physiological reactive α-oxoaldehyde metabolite, produced by lipid peroxidation and autoxidation of glucose. In this work, a specific mitochondria-targeting fluorescent probe Z-GL for glyoxal has been developed by an introducing isopropyl group on the recognition site to tune the selectivity toward glyoxal. The probe showed high selectivity and sensitivity for glyoxal in an aqueous system. Importantly, the probe was able to visualize exogenous and endogenous glyoxal in living cells. Furthermore, the probe was mitochondria-targetable, and could be used for monitoring the level of intracellular glyoxal.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Fluorescence is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original articles that advance the practice of this established spectroscopic technique. Topics covered include advances in theory/and or data analysis, studies of the photophysics of aromatic molecules, solvent, and environmental effects, development of stationary or time-resolved measurements, advances in fluorescence microscopy, imaging, photobleaching/recovery measurements, and/or phosphorescence for studies of cell biology, chemical biology and the advanced uses of fluorescence in flow cytometry/analysis, immunology, high throughput screening/drug discovery, DNA sequencing/arrays, genomics and proteomics. Typical applications might include studies of macromolecular dynamics and conformation, intracellular chemistry, and gene expression. The journal also publishes papers that describe the synthesis and characterization of new fluorophores, particularly those displaying unique sensitivities and/or optical properties. In addition to original articles, the Journal also publishes reviews, rapid communications, short communications, letters to the editor, topical news articles, and technical and design notes.
