A wash-free polarity fluorescent probes targeting lipid droplets for the diagnosis of tumor and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Lipid droplets (LDs), as dynamic and metabolically active organelles, play crucial roles in cellular homeostasis, and their abnormalities are implicated in the progression of several metabolic disorders. Notably, alterations in LDs polarity are closely associated with pathological processes, such as oxidative stress, ferroptosis, highlighting the importance of developing polarity-sensitive fluorescent probes for monitoring LDs dynamics and elucidating disease mechanisms. Herein, three fluorescent probes (LD-PTZ1-LD-PTZ3) based on Boron Schiff Base (BOSCHIBA) small molecules were designed and synthesized in this paper. The constructed probes demonstrated exceptional photophysical properties, including high photostability and large Stokes shifts. Especially, LD-PTZ1 and LD-PTZ3 were highly sensitive to microenvironmental changes in polarity with excellent specificity. In addition, LD-PTZ1, LD-PTZ2 and LD-PTZ3 all possessed good LDs targeting ability. Interestingly, LD-PTZ3 can not only track the dynamic changes of LDs through wash-free procedure, but also visualize the changes in LDs polarity under different physiological states and evaluate the efficacy of anticancer drugs. Moreover, LD-PTZ3 was also used for the diagnosis of tumors and non-alcoholic fatty liver at the organ level. With its excellent properties, probe LD-PTZ3 lays a theoretical foundation for the design and synthesis of more fluorescent probes specifically targeting LDs, which was expected to further advance the field of LDs research.
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.
