[PMID: 38615529 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/30/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) plays a vital role in physiological processes and is an essential indicator of microbial content in food. Herein, a new sensitive, rapid and water-soluble probe for ATP detection was developed. Rhodamine B and pentaethylenehexamine were employed to design and synthesise the probe rhodamine-pentaethylenehexamine (RP) for selective ATP detection. The synthesised probe RP was characterized using Fourier transform infrared, NMR and dynamic light scattering size distributions. Upon the addition of ATP, the probe exhibited a distinct change in fluorescence intensity, with fluorescence emission at 580 nm. A linear relationship was observed between fluorescence intensity and ATP concentrations at 0-50 μmol/L, with a limit of detection of 10.97 × 10-9 mol/L. The results of the zeta potential and molecular dynamics simulation demonstrated that the detection mechanism of the probe RP is associated with the electrostatic adsorption interaction between the multi-positively charged sites of RP and the negatively charged triphosphate structure of ATP. Our study provides new insights into improving charge site identification in small molecule detection. Furthermore, the successful detection of ATP on meat surfaces indicates that RP has the potential to assess meat freshness.

Abstract
Mitochondria are essential cellular organelles; detecting mitochondrial damage is crucial in cellular biology and toxicology. Compared with existing chemical probe detection methods, genetically encoded fluorescent protein sensors can directly indicate cellular and molecular events without involving exogenous reagents. In this study, we introduced a molecular sensor system, MMD-Sensor, for monitoring mitochondrial membrane damage. The sensor consists of two molecular modules. Module I is a fusion structure of the mitochondrial localization sequence (MLS), AIF cleavage site sequence (CSS), nuclear localization sequence (NLS), N-terminus of mNeonGreen and mCherry. Module II is a fusion structure of the C-terminus of mNeonGreen, NLS sequence, and mtagBFP2. Under normal condition, Module I is constrained in the inner mitochondrial membrane anchored by MLS, while Module II is restricted to the nucleus by its NLS fusion component. If the mitochondrial membrane is damaged, CSS is cut from the inner membrane, causing Module I to shift into the nucleus guided by the NLS fusion component. After Module I enters the nucleus, the N- and C-terminus of mNeonGreen meet each other and rebuild its intact 3D structure through fragment complementation and thus generates green fluorescence in the nucleus. Dynamic migration of red fluorescence from mitochondria to the nucleus and generation of green fluorescence in the nucleus indicate mitochondrial membrane damage. Using the MMD-Sensor, mitochondrial membrane damage induced by various reagents, such as uncoupling agents, ATP synthase inhibitors, monovalent cationic carriers, and ROS, in HeLa and 293T cells are directly observed and evaluated.

Abstract
In order to detect Ag+ and Hg2+ in seawater, we explored a multifunctional fluorescence sensor. A multifunctional Ag+ and Hg2+ sensor was designed by using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as quenching agent, PicoGreen dye as fluorescent probe of base pairing double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and combining the characteristics of Ag+ making C base mismatch and Hg2+ making T base mismatch. Meanwhile, the DNA logic gate was constructed by establishing logic circuit, truth table, and logic formula. The relevant performances of the sensor were investigated. The results revealed that the sensor can detect Ag+ in the range of 100 to 700 nM with R2 = 0.98129, and its detection limit is 16.88 nM (3σ/slope). The detection range of Hg2+is 100-900 nM with R2 = 0.99725, and the detection limit is 5.59 nM (3σ/slope). An AND-AND-NOR-AND molecular logic gate has been successfully designed. With the characteristics of high sensitivity, multifunction, and low cost, the recommended detection method has the potential to be applied to the detection of Ag+ and Hg2+ in seawater.

Abstract
ATP is a high-energy compound that plays a vital role in biological metabolism. Abnormal changes in ATP concentration are related to various diseases and reflect microbial metabolism in biofilms. In this work, we prepared carbon quantum dots (CDs) with aggregation-induced fluorescence inhibition effect using the bacterial culture medium as raw material with a hydrothermal method. Then, an abiotic fluorescent nanoprobe named CDs@zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-90 (ZIF-90) was facilely synthesized by encapsulating CDs into ZIF-90. Owing to the encapsulation of CDs in the hollow structure of ZIF-90, the blue fluorescence emission of CDs@ZIF-90 decreased significantly. In the presence of ATP, the ZIF-90 framework was destroyed due to the strong coordination between ATP and Zn2+. The released CDs exhibited stronger fluorescence intensity, which was closely related to the ATP concentration. The convenient synthesis process and rapid ATP-responsive ability make CDs@ZIF-90 highly promising for clinical and environmental analysis.

Abstract
A novel hydrazone-based fluorescent probe (E)-3-((2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (BTC) has been rationally designed and synthesized. BTC can subsequently detect Ga3+ and PPi ions through the absorption and emission off-on-off response with high specificity. Importantly, fluorescent probe BTC can well discriminate Ga3+ from Al3+ and In3+. The association constant (K) was calculated as 2.06 × 104M-1, and the limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as 4.88 × 10-2μM. Competitive binding studies also illustrated good results of the probe BTC towards Ga3+. Job's plot and HRMS results substantiated the 1:1 stoichiometry between BTC and Ga3+ ion. The interaction binding mode of BTC with Ga3+ was proposed by HRMS, 1H NMR spectral titration, UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectral measurements. The combination of the restraint of the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process and the chelation enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) process is responsible for the fluorescence enhancement of this probe. The in situ chelated BTC-Ga3+ could further monitor pyrophosphate ion (PPi) by demetallization process with quenching fluorescence emission. Additionally, the BTC and BTC-Ga3+ showed good cell permeability and could detect Ga3+ and PPi ions in onioninner epidermal cells, respectively.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an energy molecule of significant importance, and, the monitoring of ATP in living cells is considerable for the clinical diagnosis of many related diseases, including cancer. Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have recently been attracting widespread interest in biomedical applications due to their chemical and thermal stability, high sensitivity, good biocompatibility, and excellent tissue penetration. Herein, a Cy3-aptamer-cDNA- UCNPs nanosensor was synthesized, based on the luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) between UCNPs and Cy3 for monitoring ATP in living cells. It showed a selective sensing ability for ATP levels by changes of fluorescence intensity of UNCPs at 536 nm. The investigated biosensor showed a precise, efficient detection with sufficient selectivity which was achieved through the optimization of conditions. In the range of 1-1000 μM, the ATP-induced changes of the fluorescence intensity were linearly proportional to the ATP concentrations. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity assay revealed that the UCNPs sensor exhibited favorable biocompatibility, implicating the use of UCNPs in vivo imaging. This study highlights the potential of using a combination of UCNPs and ATP-binding aptamer to design an ATP-activatable probe for fluorescence-mediated imaging in living cells. These results implied that the nanosensor can be applicable for the monitoring of intracellular ATP by fluorescence imaging and the quantitative analysis of biological liquids.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent probe 2-(4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-N-(2,3,3-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-yl)hydrazinecarbothioamide (HT) was prepared in this study by a condensation reaction. HT has been confirmed to possess high specificity toward Ga3+ over other metal ions (including Al3+ and In3+) via a distinct fluorescence light-up response. Moreover, HT exhibited good detection performances for Ga3+ including high selectivity, excellent anti-interference ability, a wide working pH range, and good reversibility. The association constant and limit of detection (LOD) were calculated to be 5.34 × 103 M-1 and 1.18 × 10-6 M, respectively. The detection mechanism of HT toward Ga3+ was proposed and confirmed by 1H NMR analysis, HRMS analysis, and DFT calculations. A simple test strip-based portable detecting device and a molecular INHIBIT logic circuit were established for improving its practical applicability. Furthermore, the desirable sensing performance of HT for Ga3+ was successfully reconfirmed in MCF-7 cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In this paper, a simple, enzyme-free, label-free fluorescence, high sensitivity logic gate hairpin aptasensor was developed for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) detection based on graphene oxide (GO) and PicoGreen dye.
Methods
Using single-strand deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as input signal and fluorescence signal as output signal, if single-strand DNA (DNA-L), single-strand DNA (DNA-S), and ATP were present at the same time, one segment of DNA-L formed a hairpin ring with ATP, and the other segment of DNA-L formed a completely complementary hairpin stem with DNA-S. The hairpin DNA was detached from the GO surface, and PicoGreen dye was embedded into the hairpin stem, and the fluorescence signal was enhanced. The molecular logic gate was constructed through the establishment of logic histogram, logic circuit, truth table, and logic formula. The biosensor-related performances including sensitivity, selectivity, and linearity were investigated, respectively.
Results
We have successfully constructed a AND logic gate. The detection limit of ATP is 138.0 pmol/L (3σ/slope) with detection range of 50–500 nmol/L (R2 = 0.98951), and its sensitivity is 4.748 × 106–6.875 × 108 a.u. (mol/L)−1.
Conclusions
The logic gate hairpin aptamer sensor has the advantages of high sensitivity, low detection limit, and low cost, and can be successfully applied to the detection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in actual human urine samples.

Abstract
We have prepared six thiosemicarbazone ligands and synthesized the corresponding Ga(iii) complexes. The antitumor activity of the ligand increases with its lipophilicity, and the antitumor activity of the Ga(iii) complexes is affected by the ligands. Since C6 has the highest anticancer proliferative activity (0.14 ± 0.01 μM) against HepG-2 (Human hepatocarcinoma cell line), we characterized its structure by X-ray single crystal diffraction and explored its antiproliferation mechanism. Anti-tumor mechanism results show that Ga(iii) complex (C6) promoted HepG-2 cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase by regulating the expression of cell cycle-associated proteins (Cdk 2, cyclin A and cyclin E). Ga(iii) complex (C6) promotes apoptosis by consuming intracellular iron, enhancing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), activating caspase-3/9, releasing cytochromes and apoptotic protease activating factor-1 (apaf-1).

Abstract
Detection and visualization of phosphates such as ATP in living organisms can facilitate the elucidation of various biological events. Although substantial efforts had been made in this area, present methods have disadvantages such as the need for specialized equipment and poor sensitivities. To address these limitations, novel fluorescent probes, (di-(2-picolyl)amino)quinazolines, were developed for application in ATP detection. They selectively recognized copper ions by fluorescence quenching, and their copper complexes displayed fluorescence enhancement in the presence of phosphoric acid derivatives. This fluorescence on–off system enabled highly sensitive fluorescence detection of ATP when combined with a phenyl boronic acid-modified γ-cyclodextrin through a plausible multipoint recognition system. Supramolecular probe Cu-dpa-QZ2/FPB-γ-CyD recognized ATP with high sensitivity.![]()

Abstract
A naphthol-based sensor (L) was designed and synthesized for the specific recognition of Ga3+ using fluorescence enhancement. An in situ generated L-Ga3+ ensemble detected ADP and ATP more selectively through a fluorescence "switch off" response, which was confirmed both in cells and in adult zebrafish.

Abstract
Herein we described a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) calculator for sensitive detection of the determination of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) using gold nanoparticles (GNP) and PicoGreen fluorescence dye as signal transducer, and ATP and single-stranded DNA (DNA-M′) as activators. The calculator-related performances including linearity, reaction time, logic gate, and selectivity were investigated, respectively. The results revealed that this oligonucleotide sensor was highly sensitive and selective. The detection range was 50–500 nmol/L (R2 = 0.99391) and the detection limit was 46.5 nmol/L. The AND DNA calculator was successfully used for the ATP detection in human urine. Compared with other methods, this DNA calculator has the characteristics of being label-free, non-enzymic, simple, and highly sensitive.

A fluorescent "on-off-on" probe for sensitive detection of ATP based on ATP displacing DNA from nanoceria. Talanta 2017; 179:285-291.

Abstract
A simple, rapid, and ultrasensitive fluorescence strategy for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) detection was developed by using a FAM (carboxyfluorescein) labeled DNA (FAM-DNA). In this strategy, highly fluorescent FAM-DNA was used as a probe, and nanoceria (CeO2 NPs) acted as an efficient quencher. FAM-DNA attached to the surface of nanoceria through the coordination between the phosphate group of DNA and NP surface, which induced complete quenching in the FAM-DNA fluorescence due to a photo induced electron transfer (PET) process. It was found that ATP can readily displace adsorbed DNA from nanoceria surface because of the stronger coordination ability of ATP with nanoceria, and the nanoceria-based competitive binding resulted in over 7-fold fluorescence enhancement. Over a wide range from 0.1nM to 1.5μM, a good linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity and the concentration of ATP was obtained and the detection limit was estimated to be as low as 54pM. This method was successfully used to analyze ATP in a single drop of blood and human urine.

Abstract
Nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) play important roles in living organisms. However, no fluorescent assays are currently available to simply and rapidly detect multiple NTPs with satisfactory selectivity, sensitivity and low cost. Here we demonstrate for the first time a target-triggered in-vitro transcription machinery for ultra-selective, sensitive and instant fluorescence detection of multiple NTPs. The machinery assembles RNA polymerase, DNA template and non-target NTPs to convert the target NTP into equivalent RNA signal sequences which are monitored by the fluorescence enhancement of molecular beacon. The machinery offers excellent selectivity for the target NTP against NDP, NMP and dNTP. Notably, to accelerate the kinetics of the machinery while maintain its high specificity, we investigated the sequence of DNA templates systematically and established a set of guidelines for the design of the optimum DNA templates, which allowed for instant detection of the target NTP at fmol level in less than 1min. Furthermore, the machinery could be transformed into logic gates to study the coeffects of two NTPs in biosynthesis and real-time monitoring systems to reflect the distribution of NTP in nucleotide pools. These results provide very useful and low-cost tools for both biochemical tests and point-of-care analysis.

Abstract
Six conjugates of benzoxazole and green fluorescent protein chromophore that differ by the length of their alkyl chain (from C1 to C16) are investigated. They exhibit rigidofluorochromism and clear aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) behavior with emission in the orange-red that is specific to the solid state. A preparation method based on solvent exchange is used to prepare particles. The self-association properties of these molecules depend on the length of the alkyl chain. Microfibers, platelets, and rounded microparticles are successively obtained by increasing the chain length. The same method is used to prepare nanoparticles (NPs) that are fully characterized. In particular, homogeneous populations of stable NPs measuring around 70 nm are obtained with the analogs whose chains contain four to eight carbon atoms. The behavior with respect to living cells is also influenced by the nature of the compounds. Only the dyes with intermediate hydrophobicity are efficiently uptaken by both normal and tumor cells, and fluorescence only originates from dispersed dye molecules. There is no evidence for incorporation of NPs into cells. This work shows that small variations of the chemical structure must be taken into account for making the best use of AIEE compounds in view of precise applications.

Abstract
Biomolecular immobilization and construction of the sensing platform are usually crucial for the successful development of a high-efficiency detection system. Herein we report on a novel and label-free signal-amplified aptasensing for sensitive electrochemical detection of small molecules (adenosine triphosphate, ATP, used in this case) by coupling with target-induced hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and the assembly of electroactive silver nanotags. The system mainly consisted of two alternating hairpin probes, a partial-pairing trigger-aptamer duplex DNA and a capture probe immobilized on the electrode. Upon target ATP introduction, the analyte attacked the aptamer and released the trigger DNA, which was captured by capture DNA immobilized on the electrode to form a newly partial-pairing double-stranded DNA. Thereafter, the exposed domain at trigger DNA could be utilized as the initator strand to open the hairpin probes in sequence, and propagated a chain reaction of hybridization events between two alternating hairpins to form a long nicked double-helix. The electrochemical signal derived from the assembled silver nanotags on the nicked double-helix. Under optimal conditions, the electrochemical aptasensor could exhibit a high sensitivity and a low detection limit, and allowed the detection of ATP at a concentration as low as 0.03 pM. Our design showed a high selectivity for target ATP against its analogs because of the high-specificity ATP-aptamer reaction, and its applicable for monitoring ATP in the spiking serum samples. Improtantly, the distinct advantages of the developed aptasensor make it hold a great potential for the development of simple and robust sensing strategies for the detection of other small molecules by controlling the apatmer sequence.
