Abstract
Boronate-based molecular probes are emerging as one of the most effective tools for detection and quantitation of peroxynitrite and hydroperoxides. This review discusses the chemical reactivity of boronate compounds in the context of their use for detection of biological oxidants, and presents examples of the practical use of those probes in selected chemical, enzymatic, and biological systems. The particular reactivity of boronates toward nucleophilic oxidants makes them a distinct class of probes for redox biology studies. We focus on the recent progress in the design and application of boronate-based probes in redox studies and perspectives for further developments.

Abstract
Lysosome visualization is very important for accurate diagnosis of human diseases. However, currently developed lysosome imaging probes usually have poor specificity and are easily quenched, leading to a low signal to noise ratio in lysosome labeling. To resolve this problem, herein, metal-organic framework-based probes of copper-terephthalic acid (CuBDC) are investigated, which show sensitivity to pH and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), simultaneously. By self-assembling under the template effect of soluble starch, the particle size of CuBDC can be well controlled for entering into cells and locating lysosomes. Based on the Fenton-like reaction, CuBDC can catalyze the decomposition of H2O2 into ˙OH, which in turn reacts with CuBDC to generate a stable fluorescent substance. Meanwhile, Cu2+ can be released from CuBDC under acidic conditions for reacting with H2O2 more thoroughly. And the synthesized CuBDC has a similar attraction to the electrophilic ˙OH at different pH values owing to the residual soluble starch in the particles. The above properties cause CuBDC to have a stable fluorescence signal with low pH values and high H2O2 concentration, simultaneously. The fluorescence imaging experiments in HeLa cells demonstrate that CuBDC acting as a pH/H2O2 responsive fluorescent probe holds great promise for lysosome-specific imaging.
