Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007050810A2] The present invention provides a novel class of fluorogenic probes for reactive oxygen species. Exemplary probes of the invention utilize a boronate deprotection mechanism to provide high selectivity and optical dynamic range for detecting H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> in aqueous solution over similar reactive oxygen species (ROS) including superoxide, nitric oxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, and hydroxyl radical; Peroxyresorufin-1 (PRl), Peroxyfluor- 1 (PFl), and Peroxyxanthone-1 (PXl) are first-generation probes that respond to H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> by an increase in red, green, and blue fluorescence, respectively. The boronate dyes are cell- permeable and can detect micromolar changes in H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB> concentrations in living cells, including hippocampal neurons, using confocal and two-photon microscopy. The unique combination of ROS selectivity, membrane permeability, and a range of available excitation/emission colors establishes the potential value of PRl, PFl, PXl, and related probes for interrogating the physiology and pathology of cellular H<SUB>2</SUB>O<SUB>2</SUB>.
