Background
Cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and reduced Glutathione (GSH) are collectively referred to as biological thiols. Being a large number of small molecule sulfhydryl species present in organisms, they play a very important role in balancing redox processes and mitigating damage caused by free radicals and toxins. Studies have shown that fluctuations in biological thiol levels are of great relevance to the development of many human diseases, such as heart disease, dysplasia, skin damage, liver damage, osteoporosis, and alzheimer's disease. Therefore, the detection of Cys/Hcy/GSH in vivo will have a positive and meaningful impact on understanding the development and progression of disease.
Fluorescent probe molecules generally consist of a fluorophore, a linker arm, and a recognition group. Fluorescent probe molecules generally emit at a shorter wavelength and are generally interfered by the background of the biological sample itself, resulting in false positive signals. And the near infrared (650-900 nm) fluorescence emission can effectively reduce the interference factor. Therefore, the development of near-infrared fluorescent probes will greatly promote the accuracy of biological sample detection.

probe test solvent screening
Based on the examples, the fluorescence emission performance of the probe TX (10 μmol/L) in different mixed solutions of organic solvent and water was tested. As shown in fig. 1, by comparing the fluorescence emission intensity in different organic solvents. It was found that when the organic solvent was chosen to be DMSO, the probe itself had a small background fluorescence emission. Further, as shown in fig. 2, the fluorescence emission performance of probe TX (10 μmol/L) after responding to Cys (5.0equiv.) in various organic solvent and water mixed solutions was tested. When the organic solvent was DNSO, a significant increase in fluorescence signal was exhibited.
CysCys (5.0equiv.) responses were tested for probe TX (10. mu. mol/L) in the presence of mixed solvents DMSO and water at different volume ratios, as shown in FIG. 3. It was found that when the probe TX was in DMSO: H2The fluorescent material has better fluorescence emission under a mixed solvent system with the O ratio of 1: 1.
pH range test for probe application
In DMSO, H2The effect of probes on Cys response in O (5:5, V: V) solution at different pH (3-11) ranges was tested, as shown in FIG. 4. The following are found: the fluorescence of the probe per se can obviously increase in a strong alkaline solvent, but the fluorescence intensity value tends to be in a stable state in neutral and alkaline solutions after response. Therefore, the probe is suitable for testing with a pH value ranging from 7 to 9.
Selective testing of probes
In DMSO, H2O (5:5, V: V) solution, the fluorescence emission spectra of each amino acid added to probe TX (10. mu. mol/L) were compared, including: 100 μmol/L, 1) Thr; 2) ser; 3) phe; 4) met; 5) lys; 6) leu; 7) ile; 8) his; 9) arg; 10) ala; 11) val; 12) tyr, and 20. mu. mol/L, 13) Cys; 14) hcy; 15) GSH. As shown in FIG. 5, in addition to the three thiol analytes, no significant increase in fluorescence intensity was observed at 488nm for the other amino acids. The result shows that the probe TX shows a good selective detection effect on the three biological thiols.
Anti-interference capability test of probe
The interfering atmosphere was created by adding 100. mu. mol/L of each amino acid of the above examples to 10. mu. mol/L of probe TX. Thereafter, the change in the fluorescence spectrum was measured after adding 20. mu. mol/LCys, Hcy and GSH as analytes. As shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 8, the fluorescence responses of the other various amino acids (100. mu. mol/L, bars in the grid) and the fluorescence intensities after addition of Cys, Hcy and GSH (20. mu. mol/L, bars in the black) were compared, respectively. The fluorescence emission intensity of the probe TX shows obvious change at 718nm under the excitation wavelength of 488nm, and the result shows that the recognition of the three biological thiols by the probe TX in the presence of other various amino acids is hardly influenced.
Titration experiment of the Probe
As shown in FIG. 9, the probe TX solution itself had no significant fluorescence emission signal under 488nm wavelength excitation. However, when Cys is present, the solution color is shifted. And, it showed a great increase in the value of fluorescence intensity at 710 nm. In addition, when the analyte reached 20. mu. mol/L, the fluorescence intensity was increased by about 5 times. Meanwhile, from the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum 10, there was a tendency similar to the increase of fluorescence at 525 nm. As shown in FIGS. 11-14, the probe showed Cys-like behavior for Hcy and GSH.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 15-17, probes TX respond with Cys with a net increase in fluorescence intensity (F-F)0) Shows better linear correlation with Cys concentration of 0-10 mu mol/L (wherein, F0And F are fluorescence intensity values before and after the probe reacts with Cys, Hcy, and GSH, respectively). Regression equation for probe TX is y-30.17 +79.58x(R20.9810). At the same time, probes TX and Hcy (GSH) respond to net increase in fluorescence intensity (F-F)0) Has better linear correlation with the concentration of Hcy (GSH) between 0 and 4 mu mol/L, and the regression equation is that y is 48.14+205.51x (R)2=0.9772)(y=53.36+192.51x(R2=0.9734))。
The fluorescent probe disclosed by the invention is used for detecting biological thiol by constructing a probe TX based on a dicyan isophorone framework with strong electron pulling capability, and the fluorescence emission wavelength of the fluorescent probe is red-shifted to an NIR region by conjugated connection of a coumarin group. At the excitation wavelength of 488nm, the probe has almost no fluorescence. After the biological thiol reacts with the probe molecules, the fluorescence intensity at 718nm is obviously enhanced. And, the net increase in fluorescence intensity before and after the reaction (F-F)0) And the concentration of the biological thiol shows better linear correlation in a certain range. The probe TX has good selectivity to thiol and is not interfered by other amino acids. Can be used for detecting biological mercaptan in a biological sample and has good application prospect.
