A near-infrared fluorescent probe for the detection of vicinal-dithiol-containing proteins and its application in vivo
Vicinal-dithiol-containing proteins (VDPs) play a significant role in maintaining cellular redox homeostasis and serve as important biomarkers for diagnosing redox-related diseases, such as obesity and cancer. However, the currently reported fluorescent probes are restricted in biological applications due to their short emission wavelengths and insufficient sensitivity. To address this limitation, we developed a novel near-infrared fluorescent probe (M1) for sensitive tracking of VDPs by utilizing coumarin-benzopyrylium moiety as the fluorophore and two methoxy-substituted maleimide groups matching double active cysteine residues of VDPs as the recognition site. M1 exhibits negligible fluorescence in aqueous media but emits strong red fluorescence upon specific binding to VDPs. The probe shows high sensitivity for detecting reduced bovine serum albumin (rBSA) within the concentration range of 0-7.5 μM, with a detection limit as low as 0.070 μM. Furthermore, M1 has been successfully applied not only to super-resolution fluorescence imaging of VDPs in A549 cells, but also to confocal fluorescence imaging of VDPs in zebrafish.
