Abstract
Novel fluorescent probes based on 2(1H)-quinolone skeleton containing a malonate group (Q1-Q3) were synthesized and proposed for biothiols detection. Their chemical reactivity toward thiols was compared to the reactivity of derivative having a dicyanovinyl group (Q4) as a reactive site. The detailed photophysical properties of these compounds were assessed through the determination of absorption and fluorescence spectra, fluorescence quantum yield, and fluorescence lifetime. In the presence of biothiols, an increase in the fluorescence intensity of compounds Q1-Q3 and a hypsochromic shift in their emission bands were observed. In contrast, the compound with the dicyanovinyl group (Q4) in the presence of biothiols and cyanide ion showed the quenching of fluorescence, while a fluorescence "turn on" effect was observed toward reactive sulfur species.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders (NDDs) are progressive, incurable health conditions that primarily affect brain cells, and result in loss of brain mass and impaired function. Current sensing technologies for NDD detection are limited by high cost, long sample preparation, and/or require skilled personnel. To overcome these limitations, optical sensors, specifically colorimetric sensors, have garnered increasing attention towards the development of a cost-effective, simple, and rapid alternative approach. In this review, we evaluate colorimetric sensing strategies of NDD biomarkers (e.g. proteins, neurotransmitters, bio-thiols, and sulfide), address the limitations and challenges of optical sensor technologies, and provide our outlook on the future of this field.

Abstract
Both the total amount of biothiols and thiol/disulfide ratio are wellness indicators of oxidative balance that play an important role in antioxidant defense system. Oxidized biothiols in disulfide form cannot be determined by conventional ABTS assay due to the biphasic kinetic pattern of the reaction between biothiols and ABTS radical cation (ABTS•+), necessitating the initial reduction of disulfides to thiols prior to measurement. In this study, direct simultaneous determination of biothiols (RSH) and their disulfides (RSSR) by using a single reagent of ABTS•+ was achieved without preliminary chemical reduction. Thus, conventional problems of preliminary operations arising from direct borohydride reduction of disulfides to thiols, followed by formaldehyde removal of borohydride excess and complications caused by formaldehyde-thiol reactions were effectively overcome with the use of a single reagent (ABTS•+). Box-Behnken statistical experimental design was employed to specify the optimal incubation temperature and time as 60 °C and 60 min, respectively. The detection limits (LOD) of the proposed assay for biothiols were compared to those of the widely used DTNB (Ellman) reference assay known to be nonresponsive to disulfides, and were found to be much lower (4-70 times). The proposed biothiol assay was successfully applied to some pharmaceutical samples and synthetic serum without preliminary treatment, and the results were highly compatible with the HPLC findings. The proposed assay was demonstrated to have superior features such as simplicity, rapidity and higher sensitivity over the widely applied Ellman thiols assay.

Abstract
The new derivative of coumarin (E)-3-[7-(diethyloamino)-2-oxo-chromen-3yl]-2-(tiophene-2-carbonyl)prop-2-enenitrile (NOSQ) was easy synthesized with commercial substrates as a result of the search of new Michael type addition sensors based on coumarins. Spectral properties of highly emissive NOSQ were investigated by steady state analysis (absorption and fluorescence measurements) and time-resolved analysis (fluorescence lifetime measurements). The effect of water-methanol mixture on the photophysical properties of the NOSQ molecule was analyzed. With increasing of volumetric fraction of water the intensity of absorbance and fluorescence was strongly reduced. The NOSQ quantum yield in methanol was quite high and the first portions of water caused a significant increase in this value. Water, which is usually a quencher, in this case caused the increase in the quantum yield. The fluorescence lifetimes had second-order decay and the values of fluorescence lifetime increased with increasing alcohol content. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experimental data remained in agreement and showed that the interaction between the NOSQ molecule and the solvent affects the appearance of the new conformer.

Abstract
Cys is one of the important biothiols and its abnormal concentration may pose a threat to human health. Therefore, the monitoring of Cys in organisms is of great significance. GSH and Hcy, as the other two biothiols, have similar chemical structures and active sites to Cys. Consequently, developing fluorescent probes to independently detect Cys has become a challenging problem. Keeping this in mind, α-β unsaturated ketone as a recognition group was integrated into the coumarin group skeleton to synthesize a fluorescent probe SC. After the nucleophilic addition reaction of Cys with SC, the conjugated system of SC was blocked and the fluorescent enhanced obviously. SC was able to detect Cys specifically under the same excitation with a low detection limit (11.1 nM). SC showed a rapid respond to Cys (120 s) and good fluorescent stability over a wide pH range. In addition, it achieved extracorporeal circulation in the presence of H2O2 or NEM. In the end, SC could be applied to detecting endogenous and exogenous Cys under biological condition due to its slight cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility. This provided a powerful tool for studying the physiological function of Cys exclusively.

Abstract
Development of thiol-specific fluorescent probes with selectivity in different thiol compounds is more practical and significant than those without that capacity. In this work, a new quinoline-derived fluorophore, hydroxyl-substituted quinoline-benzo[d]oxazole 6 with high fluorescence quantum yield is synthesized and esterified with acrylic acid to afford two fluorescent probes, BQA-1 and BQA-2 for selectively discriminating Cys from Hcys/GSH based on conjugate addition-cyclization mechanism. BQA-1 exhibits a large ratiometric fluorescence response toward Cys in aqueous pH 7.4 solution with big emission peak-shifting from 383 nm to 518 nm, over 130 nm. The detection limit is determined to be as low as 0.59 μM. In contrast to BQA-1, BQA-2 whose acrylic ester moiety is further modified with pyridine group, displays a turn-on fluorescence response to Cys with detection limit of 0.98 μM. Both BQA-1 and BQA-2 have relatively weak response to another two biothiols, Hcys and GSH and nearly no response to other nucleophiles. Furthermore, the potential application for the detection of biothiols in living cells has been demonstrated by cell imaging experiment.

Abstract
Although Michael acceptors display a potent and broad spectrum of bioactivity, they have largely been ignored in drug discovery because of their presumed indiscriminate reactivity. As such, a dearth of information exists relevant to the thiol reactivity of natural products and their analogues possessing this moiety. In the midst of recently approved acrylamide-containing drugs, it is clear that a good understanding of the hetero-Michael addition reaction and the relative reactivities of biological thiols with Michael acceptors under physiological conditions is needed for the design and use of these compounds as biological tools and potential therapeutics. This Perspective provides information that will contribute to this understanding, such as kinetics of thiol addition reactions, bioactivities, as well as steric and electronic factors that influence the electrophilicity and reversibility of Michael acceptors. This Perspective is focused on α,β-unsaturated carbonyls given their preponderance in bioactive natural products.

Abstract
A depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH) has been observed in pathological conditions and in aging. Measuring GSH in tissues using mouse models is an excellent way to assess GSH depletion and the potential therapeutic efficacy of drugs used to maintain and/or restore cellular redox potential. A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of GSH and cysteine (Cys) in mouse organs was validated according to USA and European standards. The method was based on separation coupled with ultraviolet detection and precolumn derivatization with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). The required validation parameters, that are, selectivity, linearity, lower limit of quantification, precision, accuracy, recovery, and stability, were studied for spleen, lymph nodes, pancreas, and brain. The results showed that the lower limits of quantification were 0.313 μM and 1.25 μM for Cys and GSH, respectively. Intraday and interday precisions were less than 11% and 14%, respectively, for both compounds. The mean extraction recoveries of Cys and GSH from all organs were more than 93% and 86%, respectively. Moreover, the stability of both analytes during sample preparation and storage was demonstrated. The method was accurate, reliable, consistent, and reproducible and it was useful to determine Cys and GSH in the organs of different mouse strains.

Abstract
Biologically active low-molecular-mass thiols, mainly including glutathione (GSH), cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and cysteinylglycine (Cys-Gly), are important physiological components in biological fluids, and their analytical methods have gained continuous attention over recent years. We developed and validated a novel HPLC method for the quantification of GSH, Cys, Hcy, and Cys-Gly in human plasma, urine, and saliva using 4-chloro-3,5-dinitrobenzotrifluoride as the derivatization reagent. Analyses were linear from 0.15 to 500 μM with the coefficient regression range of 0.9987-0.9994. Detection limits ranged from 0.04 to 0.08 μM (S/N=3). The developed method was applied to quantification of four thiols in human biological fluids collected from five donors with the concentration range of 2.50-124.25 μM, 0-72.81 μM, and 0-4.25 μM for plasma, urine, and saliva, respectively. The present method seemed to be an attractive choice for the determination of thiols in plasma, urine, and saliva.

Abstract
Because of the biological importance of thiols, the development of probes for thiols has been an active research area in recent years. In this review, we summarize the results of recent exciting reports regarding thiol-addition reactions and their applications in thiol recognition. The examples reported can be classified into four reaction types including 1,1, 1,2, 1,3, 1,4 addition reactions, according to their addition mechanisms, based on different Michael acceptors. In all cases, the reactions are coupled to color and/or emission changes, although some examples dealing with electrochemical recognition have also been included. The use of thiol-addition reactions is a very simple and straightforward procedure for the preparation of thiol-sensing probes.
