Abstract
Protein bioconjugation has emerged as one of the most valuable tools for the development of protein-based biochemical assays. Herein, we report a fluorescent macromolecular probe RF12_POI, in which the coumarin derivative RF12 is specifically conjugated onto the HaloTag fused protein of interest (POI) to achieve a dual stimuli-mediated fluorescence response. RF12 is first obtained by installing a photo-cleavable 1-ethyl-2-nitrobenzyl group onto the C7 hydroxy moiety of coumarin fluorophore with a HaloTag ligand attaching to the acid-labile 1,3-dioxane moiety. Upon stimulation, RF12_Halo exhibits a sequential fluorescence response to photon/H+ on both liquid and solid interfaces. Through the conjugation of RF12 onto the GFP_Halo protein, RF12_GFP_Halo presents a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from photo-cleaved RF12 to GFP in the protein complex. Furthermore, by utilizing the stimuli-responsive fluorescence characteristics of coumarin derivatives RF12 (photon/H+) and RF16 (H2O2/H+), we construct RF12/RF16_POI based protein films and achieve multiple applications of logic circuits, including AND, OR, XOR, INHIBIT, Half-adder or Half-subtractor. In these circuits, the output value of I/I0 is dependent on the input sequence of photon, H2O2, and H+. Additionally, we evaluate the fluorescence labeling ability of RF12 to intracellular IRE1_Halo protein and demonstrate that RF12 containing the HaloTag ligand could be precisely retained in cells to track IRE1_Halo protein. Hence, we provide a unique structural design strategy to construct fluorescence dual-responsive macromolecules for information encryption and cellular protein visualization.

Ren A, Qiao L, Li K, Zhu D, Zhang Y. Thiol-chromene click reaction-triggered mitochondria-targeted ratiometric fluorescent probe for intracellular biothiol imaging. Anal Bioanal Chem 2024:10.1007/s00216-024-05506-3. [PMID: 39212698 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-024-05506-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2024] [Revised: 08/14/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Chromene as the efficient biothiol recognition site was widely used to develop fluorescent probes based on thiol-chromene click reaction. However, chromene-based fluorescent probes with the both properties of ratiometric measurement and mitochondria-targeted function have not been reported and remain challenging. In this paper, we skillfully designed and synthesized the first mitochondria-targeted ratiometric fluorescent probe (Probe 1) for biothiols based on chromene. Upon addition of biothiols (Cys, Hcy, and GSH), the absorption and fluorescence spectra of Probe 1 changed from 490 to 426 nm and from 567 to 498 nm respectively, accompanied by color changes from orange to pale yellow under natural light and from orange to blue under a 365-nm UV lamp, which can be attributed to the click reaction of biothiols with α,β-unsaturated ketone of chromene moiety, subsequent pyran ring-opening, and phenol formation as well as 1,6-elimination of p-hydroxybenzyl moiety. Probe 1 not only exhibited high sensitivity (LODs of 149 nM, 133 nM, and 116 nM for Cys, GSH, and Hcy respectively), rapid response, and excellent selectivity for biothiols (Cys, Hcy, and GSH), but also could target in mitochondria and ratiometrically image the fluctuation of intracellular biothiols. Moreover, the novel design strategy of modifying chromene to the N atom of pyridine was proposed for the first time.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is a potent antioxidant, fragrance, and anti-browning agent in the field of food chemistry. The accurate GSH evaluation in food and vegetables is critical for instructing the right supplementation of GSH in body. However, most reported GSH fluorescent probes were utilized for the biological imaging. In this study, a new probe DCYP-GSH was developed by coupling of benzopyranonitrile as signal reporter to N-methylpyridine through C = C bond as binding site. Notably, a significant increase in fluorescence intensity and a λmax red-shift of DCYP-GSH in electron spectra were found as a result of the response to GSH. Quantitative detection of GSH in water and milk samples were achieved using probe DCYP-GSH. The development of DCYP-GSH was anticipated to provide an effective toolkit for food safe evaluation.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a long-term systemic inflammatory disease that causes severe joint pain. Golgi stress caused by redox imbalance significantly involves in acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, in which cysteine (Cys), as a representative reducing agent, may be an effective biomarker for RA. Hence, in order to achieve RA early detection and drugs evaluation, based on our previous work about innovative Golgi-targeting group, we established a phenylsulfonamide-modified fluorescence probe, Golgi-Cys, for the selective fluorescence imaging of Cys in Golgi apparatus in vivo. By application of Golgi-Cys, the Cys changes under Golgi stress in cells were elucidated. More importantly, we found that the probe can be effectively utilized for the RA detection and treatment evaluation in situ.

Abstract
The increasing understanding of the intricate relationship between two crucial gasotransmitters nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in biological actions has generated significant interest. However, comprehensive monitoring of the dynamic fluctuations of endogenous NO and H2S remains a challenge. In this study, we have designed an innovative aggregation-induced reporter SAB-NH-SC with enhanced responsiveness to H2S for visualizing the fluctuations of intracellular NO and H2S. This probe leverages the hydrophilic properties of the pyridinium salt derivative, which can rapidly self-assemble into positively charged nanoparticles under physiological conditions, avoiding the introduction of organic solvents or tedious preparations. Notably, the reporter can repeatedly cycle S-nitrosation and SNO-transnitrosation reactions when successively treated with NO and H2S. Consequently, fluorescence alternation at 751 (H2S) and 639 nm (NO) facilitates the dynamic visualization of the alternating presence of H2S and NO within cells. This dynamic and reversible probe holds immense potential for unraveling the intricate interactions between NO and H2S in a complex network of biological applications.

Abstract
Biothiols and its metabolite SO2 derivatives play vital roles in various physiological processes. Although a few probes have been designed for monitoring the metabolism of biothiols, developing multi-signal fluorescent probes with practicability for simultaneously distinguishing biothiols (GSH, Cys and Hcy) and real-time visualizing SO2 derivatives is an enormous challenge. To better visualize biothiols metabolism in vitro and vivo, we developed a novel multi-signal NIR fluorescent probe (probe 2) with mitochondria-targeted for distinguishing biothiols and its metabolism, based on an ICT-PET synergetic mechanism. Probe 2 with dual recognition sites distinguishing detected Cys/Hcy (Red-Green), GSH (Green) and SO32- (Blue) via three channels. First probe 2 distinguished Cys and GSH to estimate main biothiols in living cells through the ratio changes of two well-defined emission bands (Red-Green), and then imaged its metabolite SO2 with ratiometric fluorescence (Red-Blue), eliminating the interference by different biothiols. Notably, probe 2 exhibits satisfactory sensitivity (detection limit: 0.21, 0.13, 0.14 and 3.06 μM for Cys, Hcy, GSH and SO32-, respectively), high selectivity, reliability at physiological pH, and rapid fluorescence response (within 10 min). Given these advantages, probe 2 has been successfully applied to the real-time monitor GSH metabolic process in MCF-7 cells and biothiols metabolism in breast cancer, suggesting biothiols metabolic changes might be a diagnostic indicator during cancer treatment. So probe 2 is a convenient and efficient tool for understanding the physiological functions of biothiols and its metabolism.

Abstract
Cysteine is an important biological thiol and is closely related to cancer. It remains a challenge to develop a probe that can provide long-term fluorescence detection and imaging of Cys in cells as well as in living organisms. Here, a solid-state fluorophore HTPQ is combined with an acrylate group to construct a solid-state fluorescent probe HTPQC for Cys recognition. The fluorescence of the probe is quenched when the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process is turned on and the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process is turned off. In the presence of Cys, an obvious solid-state fluorescence signal can be observed. The double quenching mechanism makes the probe HTPQC have the advantages of high sensitivity, good selectivity, and high contrast of biological imaging. Due to low cytotoxicity, the probe HTPQC can be used to detect exogenous and endogenous Cys in living cells and is capable of imaging over long periods of time. By making full use of long wavelengths, the probe can be applied for the detection of Cys levels in tumor mice and equipped with the ability to conduct long-term imaging in vivo.

Abstract
Targeted drug delivery systems have gained great attention from the chemistry and biomedical fields in recent years due to the minimized harm to normal cells. When designing targeted drug delivery systems, the property of harmlessness to normal cells and the tracking ability of the whole process are quite crucial. These two characters can be brought into the related systems by applying a drug carrier that is self-luminescent and its drug release can be induced by the microenvironment of cancer cells. Therefore, the design and synthesis of drug delivery vehicles are significant for the fabrication of target drug delivery systems. Herein, we have synthesized a cysteine-responsive and fluorescent molecule, maleic acid-modified tetraphenylethylene derivative (MATPE), by a facile method. In addition, a drug delivery system with self-luminescence and cysteine-responsiveness based on the self-assembly of MATPE was fabricated. In this system, MATPE and cysteine both played dual roles as cysteine probe/drug carrier and emission-enhanced inducement/drug-release stimulus. The drug-release process was successfully realized in cancer cells and can be visualized, exhibiting great potential in the field of theranostics.

Abstract
Cysteine-based Michael addition is a widely employed strategy for covalent conjugation of proteins, peptides, and drugs. The covalent reaction is irreversible in most cases, leading to a lack of control over the process. Utilizing spectroscopic analyses along with X-ray crystallographic studies, we demonstrate Michael addition of an engineered cysteine residue in human Cellular Retinol Binding Protein II (hCRBPII) with a coumarin analog that creates a non-fluorescent complex. UV-illumination reverses the conjugation, yielding a fluorescent species, presumably through a retro-Michael process. This series of events can be repeated between a bound and non-bound form of the cysteine reversibly, resulting in the ON-OFF control of fluorescence. The details of the mechanism of photoswitching was illuminated by recapitulation of the process in light irradiated single crystals, confirming the mechanism at atomic resolution.

Zhang J, Zhou X, Wang J, Fang D. A red-emitting Europium(III) complex as a luminescent probe with large Stokes shift for the sequential determination of Cu 2+ and biothiols in real samples. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 282:121663. [PMID: 35917616 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.121663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
In this work, a novel Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC) complex with red luminescence was designed and synthesized for sequential detection of Cu2+ and biothiols (Cys/Hcy/GSH) based on the displacement strategy with the good selectivity, high sensitivity, and large Stokes shift (288 nm). The possible detection mechanism was verified by UV-vis, the high-resolution mass spectrometry, and the fluorescence decay curve. The experimental parameters, including the solution pH, the incubation time, the concentration ratio of Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC) to Cu2+ and biothiols concentration, were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, it shows a good linear relationship between the concentration (0-10 μM) of Cu2+ and the fluorescence intensity of Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC), with a low detection limit of 0.065 μM. The linear range and the limit of detection of the Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC)/Cu2+ system for Cys/Hcy/GSH were 2.5-22.5/5-45/5-50 μM and 0.11/0.07/0.05 μM, respectively. Surprisingly, the high or low concentration of Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC)/Cu2+ can significantly affect the selectivity of the sensing system to biothiols (Cys/GSH/Hcy). When the concentration of the Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC)/Cu2+ system is 10.0 μΜ, it could recognize biothiols (Cys/GSH/Hcy) from other substances, but when the concentration is as low as 3.3 μM, it could further specifically distinguished Cys from Hcy/GSH. Owing to the high anti-interference characteristics, accuracy and specificity, the sensing system was well applied to the cascade detection of Cu2+ in actual environmental samples and Cys in biological and food samples, including FBS, urine, milk, beverage, fresh juice with the satisfactory recoveries from 96.20 to 106.80 %.

Abstract
An efficient synthetic method for coumarin derivatives was developed using a dual-organocatalytic reaction. A combination of p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate and piperidine was found to efficiently catalyze the cyclization between salicylaldehydes and alkynoic esters to give various coumarin derivatives in good yield and high selectivity. Mechanistic and kinetic data suggested that the conjugate addition between piperidine and alkynoic esters played a crucial role in the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
Synthetic molecular probes, chemosensors, and nanosensors used in combination with innovative assay protocols hold great potential for the development of robust, low-cost, and fast-responding sensors that are applicable in biofluids (urine, blood, and saliva). Particularly, the development of sensors for metabolites, neurotransmitters, drugs, and inorganic ions is highly desirable due to a lack of suitable biosensors. In addition, the monitoring and analysis of metabolic and signaling networks in cells and organisms by optical probes and chemosensors is becoming increasingly important in molecular biology and medicine. Thus, new perspectives for personalized diagnostics, theranostics, and biochemical/medical research will be unlocked when standing limitations of artificial binders and receptors are overcome. In this review, we survey synthetic sensing systems that have promising (future) application potential for the detection of small molecules, cations, and anions in aqueous media and biofluids. Special attention was given to sensing systems that provide a readily measurable optical signal through dynamic covalent chemistry, supramolecular host-guest interactions, or nanoparticles featuring plasmonic effects. This review shall also enable the reader to evaluate the current performance of molecular probes, chemosensors, and nanosensors in terms of sensitivity and selectivity with respect to practical requirement, and thereby inspiring new ideas for the development of further advanced systems.

Abstract
Cysteine (Cys), the only amino acid in the 20 natural amino acids that contains a reduced sulfhydryl group, plays important roles in the balance of redox homeostasis in biological systems. Lysosome is an important organelle containing a variety of hydrolases and has been proved to be the decomposition center of a variety of exogenous and endogenous macromolecular substances. In this research, a coumarin-based fluorescent probe MCA for the detection of Cys in lysosomes of living cells was developed. Due to the acrylate moiety, this probe exhibited high sensitivity (detection limit = 6.8 nM) and selectivity towards Cys superior to other analytes. Moreover, the probe was proved to be lysosome-targetable and showed good cell imaging ability and low cell toxicity.

Abstract
Increasingly grim environmental pollutions are closely related with the occurrence and development of diseases. However, it's obscure how environmental stress disturbs the normal physiological process, and then how endogenous reactive species mend the cases. Hypoxia/reperfusion (H/R), a common and intractable injury in aquaculture and clinic, can induce oxidative stress and ultimately cause irreversible injury to organism. Cysteine (Cys) plays essential roles in maintaining transduction of numerous reactive species and redox homeostasis in subcellular structures, cells and organisms. A great deal of fluorescence research about Cys are focusing on development of selective probes but with poor exploration of the biofunction under environmental stress. Therefore, it is of great significance to examine the bio-effects of Cys against H/R stress. In the present work, we design a fluorescent probe BCy-AC for in situ detecting Cys, the unique Enol-Keto tautomerization of fluorophore BCy-Keto propels the reaction process which will improve the sensitivity and potential application performance of the probe. BCy-AC is conveniently applied to visualize Cys in HT-22 cells, zebrafish and mice tissues. Moreover, imaging results obtained from H/R models reveal that endogenous Cys changes with hypoxia and reperfusion time and Cys pretreatment effectively defend H/R injury in cells and in vivo.

Abstract
Curcumin and its derivatives have good electrical and optical properties due to the highly symmetric structure of delocalized π electrons. Apart from that, curcumin and its derivatives can interact with numerous molecular targets, thereby exerting less side effects on human body. The fluorescence emission wavelength and fluorescence intensity of curcumin can be enhanced by modifying its π-conjugated system and ß-diketone structure. Some curcumin-based fluorescent probes have been utilized to detect soluble/insoluble amyloid-ß protein, intracranial reactive oxygen species, cysteine, cancer cells, etc. Based on the binding characteristics of curcumin-based fluorescent probes with various target molecules, the factors affecting the fluorescence intensity and emission wavelength of the probes are analyzed, in order to obtain a curcumin probe with higher sensitivity and selectivity. Such an approach will be greatly applicable to in vivo fluorescence imaging.

Abstract
Thiols play vital and irreplaceable roles in the biological system. Abnormality of thiol levels has been linked with various diseases and biological disorders. Thiols are known to distribute unevenly and change dynamically in the biological system. Methods that can determine thiols' concentration and distribution in live cells are in high demand. In the last two decades, fluorescent probes have emerged as a powerful tool for achieving that goal for the simplicity, high sensitivity, and capability of visualizing the analytes in live cells in a non-invasive way. They also enable the determination of intracellular distribution and dynamitic movement of thiols in the intact native environments. This review focuses on some of the major strategies/mechanisms being used for detecting GSH, Cys/Hcy, and other thiols in live cells via fluorescent probes, and how they are applied at the cellular and subcellular levels. The sensing mechanisms (for GSH and Cys/Hcy) and bio-applications of the probes are illustrated followed by a summary of probes for selectively detecting cellular and subcellular thiols.

In this paper, we successfully synthesized a simple and versatile fluorescent probe. This probe was not only easily prepared with a high yield, but also showed rapid selective and sensitive responses for Cys/Hcy and GSH. The probe can be used as a naked-eye detector for Cys/Hcy and GSH from other analytes. As a fluorescent sensor, it can be used to simultaneously detect and discriminate Cys/Hcy from GSH with two fluorescent emission signals without spectral crosstalk.

Abstract
A potential approach to combat cellular dysfunction is to manipulate cell communication and signaling pathways to restore physiological functions while protecting unaffected cells. For instance, delivering the signaling molecule H2S to certain cells has been shown to restore cell viability and re-normalize cell behavior. We have previously demonstrated the ability to incorporate a trisulfide-based H2S-donating moiety into linear polymers with good in vitro releasing profiles and demonstrated their potential for ameliorating oxidative stress. Herein, we report two novel series of brush polymers decorated with higher numbers of H2S-releasing segments. These materials contain two trisulfide-based monomers co-polymerized with oligo(ethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate) via reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization. The macromolecules were characterized to have a range of trisulfide densities with similar, well-defined molecular weight distribution, good H2S-releasing profiles, and high cellular tolerance. Using an amperometric technique, the H2S liberated and total sulfide release were found to depend on concentrations and chemical nature of triggering molecules (glutathione and cysteine) and, importantly, the position of reactive groups within the brush structure. Notably, when introduced to cells at well-tolerated doses, two macromolecular donors which have the same proportion as of the H2S-donating monomer (30%) but differ in releasing moiety location show similar cellular H2S-releasing kinetics. These donors can restore reactive oxygen species levels to baseline values, when polymer pretreated cells are exposed to exogenous oxidants (H2O2). Our work opens up a new aspect in preparing H2S macromolecule donors and their application to arresting cellular oxidative cascades.

Abstract
In recent years, it has become a trend to employ organic molecular fluorescent probes with multireaction sites for the distinguishable detection and biological imaging of similar substances. However, the introduction of multireaction sites brought great challenges to organic synthesis, and at the same time, often destroyed the conjugated structure of the molecules, leading to an unsatisfactory fluorescence emission wavelength not conducive to practical application. As the eternal theme of life, metabolism goes on all the time. Metabolism is a series of ordered chemical reactions that occurs in the organism to maintain life. Chemical reactions in metabolism can be summarized as metabolic pathways. Simultaneous monitoring of different metabolic pathways of the same substance poses a lofty challenge to the probe. Here, we developed a new strategy: to construct new sites through the preliminary reactions between probes and some targets, which can be used to further distinguish among targets or detect their metabolites, so as to realize the simultaneous visualization tracer of multiple metabolic pathways. By intravenous injection, it revealed that the probe containing benzopyrylium ion can target tumors efficiently, and thiols are highly expressed in tumors compared to other tissues (heart, lung, kidney, liver, etc.). The consumption of thiols by the probe could not prevent tumor growth, suggesting that the tumor cure was not correlated with thiol concentration. The construction of new sites in the reaction process is a novel idea in the pursuit of multiple reaction sites, which will provide more effective tools for solving practical problems.

Abstract
A new fluorescent chemosensor comprised of cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8]) and acridine hydrochloride (AC) has been designed and utilized for the recognition of amino acids. The AC was encapsulated by the Q[8] cavity and formed a 1:2 host-guest inclusion complex both in solution (aqueous) and in the solid-state. Whilst free AC is known to be strongly fluorescent, this strong fluorescence was quenched in the inclusion complex Q [8]-AC. This non-fluorescent complex Q[8]-AC was capable of serving as a fluorescence "off-on" probe, and was able to recognize either L-Phe or L-Trp via the competitive interaction between L-Phe or L-Trp. Moreover, the pH responsive nature of the probe allowed for the detection of basic amino acids, namely L-Arg, L-His, or L-Lys). As a result, a fluorescence method for the detection of five amino acids using a single system has been developed.

Abstract
The selective detection of glutathione (GSH) in vitro and in vivo has attracted great attentions, credited to its important role in life activities and association with a series of diseases. Among all kinds of analytical techniques, the fluorescent probe for GSH detection become prevalent recently because of its ease of operation, high temporal-spatial resolution, visualization and noninvasiveness, etc. The special structural features of GSH, such as the nucleophilicity of sulfhydryl group, the concerted reaction ability of amino group, the negative charged nature, the latent hydrogen bonding ability along with its flexible molecular chain, are all potent factors to be employed to design the specific fluorescent probe for GSH and discriminate it from other bio-species including its analogues cysteine (Cys) and homocysteine (Hcy). This paper reviewed the studies in the last 3 years and was organized based on the reaction mechanism of each probe. According to the reactivity of GSH, various recognition mechanisms including Michael addition, nucleophilic aromatic substitution, ordinary nucleophilic substitution, multi-site reaction, and other unique reactions have been utilized to construct the GSH specific fluorescent probes, and the molecular design strategy, photophysical property, recognition mechanism, and bioimaging application of each reported probe were all discussed here systematically. Great progress has been made in this area, and we believe the analyses and summarization of these excellent studies would provide valuable message and inspiration to researchers to advance the research toward clinic applications.

Abstract
In recent years, targeting drugs made by physical loading or chemical bonding of drugs on small molecular carriers have shown a very wide application prospect in the field of tumor and cancer treatment. How to achieve the release of drugs in cancer cells has become the core of this research. One of the most important bases for drug localization is to use the difference of small molecular biothiol concentration between cancer cells and normal cells. Details of the changes of biothiol levels in the growth and reproduction of cancer cells are still poorly understood, and the main reason is the lack of sensitive real-time imaging tools for biothiols in cancer cells. In this work, we reasonably designed and synthesized the combination of 4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthalimide and NBD-Cl as a concise fluorescent probe HN-NBD for imaging biothiols in live cells and zebrafish. In addition, due to the advantages of HN-NBD design, it is sufficiently sensitive to biothiols, and further imaging can distinguish cancer cells from normal cells. Probe HN-NBD would be of great significance to biomedical researchers for the study of biothiol-related diseases, the screening of new anticancer drugs, and the early diagnosis and treatment of cancers.

Abstract
Three 5H-benzo[a]phenoxazin-5-one-based (benzoresorufin and nile-red) Cysteine (Cys) detection probes have been comparatively designed and synthesized in this paper. The optical experiments exhibit probe 1b with a crotonoyl group has no response toward Cys; while probes 1a and 1c have the same reaction site (acryloyl group), their optical responses to Cys are quite different. The benzoresorufin-based-probe 1a shows a turn-on fluorescence response (118-fold) to Cys at 631 nm and affords a very low detection limit (DL = 19.8 nM). Compared with probe 1a, the nile-red-based probe 1c displays gradually diminishing fluorescence intensity with increased Cys concentration at 665 nm. And the notable different fluorescence response mechanisms of probes 1a and 1c toward Cys can be interpreted by HRMS and time-dependent density functional theorety (TDDFT) calculations. Furthermore, both of the two probes indicate high sensitivity and selectivity toward Cys over other similar structured amino acids including homocysteine (Hcy) and glutathione (GSH). Further cellular applications of the two probes have been successfully performed in HeLa cells.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) plays a vital role in maintaining biological redox homeostasis. Accordingly, accurate imaging of glutathione in vivo is of great significance. Herein, we propose a magnetic resonance energy transfer (MRET) strategy based on a distance-dependent magnetic exchange coupling effect (MECE), which can realize GSH detection within tumors in vivo by susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI). Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) and CoFe2O4 NPs linked with cystamine (Fe3O4-S-S-CoFe2O4) have been successfully designed as SWI nanoprobes. After the disulfide bonds are broken by excess GSH in the tumor, the increase in the distance between Fe3O4 NPs and CoFe2O4 NPs will induce a decrease of MECE and magnetic susceptibility. As a result, the changes in the SWI signals are used for tumor GSH detection in vivo. Experimental results in vitro and in vivo demonstrate that the Fe3O4-S-S-CoFe2O4 SWI nanoprobe can sensitively detect concentrations of GSH in tumors. Hence, this strategy not only improves the sensitivity of the GSH response in SWI but also provides a powerful basis for the design of other responsive functional MRI nanoprobes.

Abstract
We present a carbon nanotube-field effect transistor (CNT-FET) biosensor which first implements the chemodosimeter sensing principle in CNT nanoelectronics. We experimentally illustrate the specific molecular interplay that the cysteine-selective chemodosimeter immobilized on the CNT surface can specifically interact with cysteine, which leads to the chemical transformation of the chemodosimeter. Since the chemical transformation of the chemodosimeter can disrupt the charge distribution in the vicinity of the CNT surface, the carrier equilibrium in CNT might be altered, and manifested by the conductivity change of CNT-FET. The real-time conductance measurements show our biosensor is capable of label-free, rapid, highly selective and ultrasensitive detection of cysteine with a detection limit down to 0.45 fM. These results first verify the signaling principle competency of chemical transformation of the chemodosimeter in CNT electronic sensors. Combined with the advantages of the highly selective chemodosimeter and sensitive CNT-FET, the excellent performance of our sensor indicates its promising prospect as a valuable tool for developing highly sensitive and selective sensing platforms in practical application. The utility of the chemodosimetric sensing principle was demonstrated for the first time in electronic biosensing with CNT-FET devices.![]()

Abstract
Using a highly specific “lock and key” fluorescent Cys probe, we confirmed that targeting Cys metabolism to deplete intracellular Cys is a more potent strategy to sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapies.
To probe the regulatory roles of cysteine (Cys) in cancer cell survival, a highly selective and sensitive fluorescent Cys probe SiR was developed by employing a novel “lock and key” strategy, which allows Cys to be detected without any interference or probe consumption caused by the intracellular high concentration of glutathione (GSH). Using SiR, we confirmed that inhibiting cystine (Cys2) transporter system xc– to deplete intracellular Cys is more efficient than inhibiting glutamate–cysteine ligase GCL to deplete intracellular GSH for sensitizing cancer cells to chemotherapy. Moreover, with the probe, a possible self-protection mechanism of cancer cells was indicated: when extracellular Cys sources are blocked, cancer cells could still survive by multidrug resistance protein transporter (Mrp1)-mediated export of intracellular GSH/GSSG as sources to supply intracellular Cys for resisting detrimental oxidative stress. Based on this finding, we further confirmed that abrogating the self-protection mechanism is an even more efficient strategy for sensitizing cancer cells to chemotherapy.

Abstract
We developed a photoacoustic and fluorescent dual-mode imaging probe, CCYS, for the detection of cysteine with high selectivity and sensitivity in a living system for the first time. By using CCYS, we found that the limited synthesis of glutathione in pulmonary fibrosis was not caused by cysteine deficiency.

Abstract
Coumarins are a very large family of compounds containing the unique 2H-chromen-2-one motif, as it is known according to IUPAC nomenclature. Coumarin derivatives are widely found in nature, especially in plants and are constituents of several essential oils. Up to now, thousands of coumarin derivatives have been isolated from nature or produced by chemists. More recently, the coumarin platform has been widely adopted in the design of small-molecule fluorescent chemosensors because of its excellent biocompatibility, strong and stable fluorescence emission, and good structural flexibility. This scaffold has found wide applications in the development of fluorescent chemosensors in the fields of molecular recognition, molecular imaging, bioorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, materials chemistry, as well as in the biology and medical science communities. This review focuses on the important progress of coumarin-based small-molecule fluorescent chemosensors during the period of 2012-2018. This comprehensive and critical review may facilitate the development of more powerful fluorescent chemosensors for broad and exciting applications in the future.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes with high quality for highly selective detection of cysteine (Cys) are still urgently in demand because of the indispensable roles Cys plays in the biological systems. Herein, a red-emitting fluorescent probe CP was developed for the highly selective detection of Cys over glutathione (GSH) and homocysteine (Hcy) by incorporating acryloyl group as the recognition unit into the 2-(2-(4-hydroxystyryl)-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ylidene) malononitrile (P-OH) fluorophore which is characterized by red emission, noteworthy Stokes shift, and appreciable photostability. Basically, CP demonstrated appreciable sensing performance toward Cys including short response time of 4 min, high sensitivity with approximately 147-fold emission enhancement, low detection limit of 41.696 nM, and good selectivity both in the solution and living cells, indicating its promising potential of visualizing Cys in biological systems.
