Abstract
Enzymes catalyze reactions involved in diverse physiological, pathological, and pharmacological processes. By employing the optical probe, fluorescence imaging enables non-invasive, real-time detection and assessment of disease states based on enzymatic activity. However, most enzyme-activated probes are single-locked probes that respond to a single biomarker. In comparison to single-locked probes, enzyme-activated dual-locked probes can effectively minimize the occurrence of false-positive signals, circumvent the problem of low specificity associated with biologically active substances, and facilitate precise imaging. This review systematically summarizes the design and application of dual-locked probes in disease diagnosis, with the aim of providing inspiration for researchers in the field.
期刊介绍:
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is an international high-impact journal for chemistry in its broadest sense. The journal covers all aspects of chemistry from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to physical chemistry, including interdisciplinary topics.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal publishes Full Papers, Communications, and Focus Reviews.
A professional editorial team headed by Dr. Theresa Kueckmann and an Editorial Board (headed by Professor Susumu Kitagawa) ensure the highest quality of the peer-review process, the contents and the production of the journal.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is published on behalf of the Asian Chemical Editorial Society (ACES), an association of numerous Asian chemical societies, and supported by the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society), ChemPubSoc Europe, and the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies (FACS).
