Alkyne-tagged imidazolium-based membrane cholesterol analogs for Raman imaging applications. Chem Sci 2024:d4sc03155e. [PMID: 39156930 PMCID: PMC11325193 DOI: 10.1039/d4sc03155e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Cholesterol is an important lipid playing a crucial role in mediating essential cellular processes as well as maintaining the basic structural integrity of biological membranes. Given its vast biological importance, there is an unabated need for sophisticated strategies to investigate cholesterol-mediated biological processes. Raman-tagged sterol analogs offer the advantage of being visualizable without the need for a bulky dye that potentially affects natural membrane integration and cellular interactions as it is the case for many conventionally used fluorescent analogs. Herein, we report a series of alkyne-tagged imidazolium-based cholesterol analogs (CHIMs) with large Raman scattering cross-sections that readily integrate into HEK cells and primary monocyte-derived macrophages and allow (multiplexed) cellular Raman imaging. We envision Raman-tagged CHIM analogs to be a powerful platform for the investigation of cholesterol-mediated cellular processes complementary to other established methods, such as the use of fluorescent analogs.

Abstract
Small heteroaryl-diyne (Het-DY) tags with distinct vibrational frequencies, and physiologically relevant cLog P were designed for multiplexed bioorthogonal Raman imaging. Pd-Cu catalyzed coupling, combined with the use of Lei ligand, was shown to improve overall yields of the desired heterocoupled Het-DY tags, minimizing the production of homocoupled side-products. Spectral data were in agreement with the trends predicted by DFT calculations and systematic introduction of electron- rich/poor rings stretched the frequency limit of aryl-capped diynes (2209-2243 cm-1 ). The improved Log P of these Het-DY tags was evident from their diffuse distribution in cellular uptake studies and functionalizing tags with organelle markers allowed the acquisition of location-specific biological images. LC-MS- and NMR-based assays showed that some heteroaryl-capped internal alkynes are potential nucleophile traps with structure-dependent reactivity. These biocompatible Het-DY tags, equipped with covalent reactivity, open up new avenues for Raman bioorthogonal imaging.

Abstract
The Raman phenomenon is based on the spontaneous inelastic scattering of light, which depends on the molecular characteristics of the dispersant. Therefore, Raman spectroscopy and imaging allow us to obtain direct information, in a label-free manner, from the chemical composition of the sample. Since it is well established that the development of many brain diseases is associated with biochemical alterations of the affected tissue, Raman spectroscopy and imaging have emerged as promising tools for the diagnosis of ailments. A combination of Raman spectroscopy and/or imaging with tagged molecules could also help in drug delivery and tracing for treatment of brain diseases. In this review, we first describe the basics of the Raman phenomenon and spectroscopy. Then, we delve into the Raman spectroscopy and imaging modes and the Raman-compatible tags. Finally, we center on the application of Raman in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of brain diseases, by focusing on traumatic brain injury and ischemia, neurodegenerative disorders, and brain cancer.

Abstract
Raman probes have attracted widespread attention for the visualization and identification of biomolecules, because they can be applied to identify detailed chemical structures, detect multiple molecules simultaneously, and visualize cellular functional molecules. However, the biological application of Raman probes is still limited because of their weak signal intensity. Herein, we present a molecular system that shows an enhanced Raman signal using a nonfluorescent dye. We introduced a DABCYL molecule bearing an acetylene unit into thymidine at the 5-position. The resulting modified nucleobase, dDAU, showed a robust signal around 2200 cm-1, which was attributed to the acetylene unit, due to resonance Raman induced by the DABCYL group. We further prepared a DNA aptamer modified with dDAU, and characterized the change of the Raman spectra. Combination with gold nanoparticles, which enhanced the Raman signal by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), allowed sensitive detection of cellular adenosine derivatives including ATP. Thus, the present system is a promising tool for the detection of biological materials by Raman spectroscopy.

Abstract
Recent advances in optical bioimaging have prompted the need for minimal chemical reporters that can retain the molecular recognition properties and activity profiles of biomolecules. As a result, several methodologies to reduce the size of fluorescent and Raman labels to a few atoms (e.g., single aryl fluorophores, Raman-active triple bonds and isotopes) and embed them into building blocks (e.g., amino acids, nucleobases, sugars) to construct native-like supramolecular structures have been described. The integration of small optical reporters into biomolecules has also led to smart molecular entities that were previously inaccessible in an expedite manner. In this article, we review recent chemical approaches to synthesize miniaturized optical tags as well as some of their multiple applications in biological imaging.

Abstract
Natural products are a diverse class of biologically produced compounds that participate in fundamental biological processes such as cell signaling, nutrient acquisition, and interference competition. Unique triple-bond functionalities like isonitriles and alkynes often drive bioactivity and may serve as indicators of novel chemical logic and enzymatic machinery. Yet, the biosynthetic underpinnings of these groups remain only partially understood, constraining the opportunity to rationally engineer biomolecules with these functionalities for applications in pharmaceuticals, bioorthogonal chemistry, and other value-added chemical processes. Here, we focus our review on characterized biosynthetic pathways for isonitrile and alkyne functionalities, their bioorthogonal transformations, and prospects for engineering their biosynthetic machinery for biotechnological applications.

Abstract
For the reliable determination of trace chemicals in the brain, we created a SERS platform based on a functionalized AuNPs array formed at a liquid/liquid interface in a uniform fashion over a large substrate area through ternary regulations for real-time quantification of trace norepinephrine (NE). The rigid molecule, 4-(thiophen-3-ylethynyl)-benzaldehyde (RP1) was designed and co-assembled at AuNPs with 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (MPBA) to chemically define NE via dual recognition. Meanwhile, the rigid structure assembly of RP1 and MPBA efficiently fixed the interparticle gap, guaranteeing reproducible SERS analysis. Furthermore, the Raman peak of C≡C group in the silent region was taken as a response element to further improve the accuracy. Combined with microdialysis, this SERS platform was developed for in-the-field testing of NE in rat brain microdialysates following anxiety.

Abstract
Non-canonical protonation at cytosine (C) in DNA is related to a formation of second order DNA structures such as i-motif, which has a role in gene regulation. Although the detailed structural information is indispensable for comprehension of their functions in cells, the protonation status of C in complicated environments is still elusive. To provide a reporter system of non-canonical protonation, we focused on the molecular vibration that could be monitored using the Raman spectroscopy. We prepared a cytosine derivative (PC) with an acetylene unit as a Raman tag, and found that the Raman signal of acetylene in PC in oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) changed due to protonation at the cytosine ring which shortened an acetylene bond. The signal change in i-motif-forming ODNs was also observed in crowded environments with polyethylene glycol, evidencing protonation in i-motif DNA in complicated environments. This system would be one of tracking tools for protonation in DNA structures.

Abstract
Alkyne functional groups have Raman signatures in a region (1800 cm-1 to 2800 cm-1) that is free from interference from cell components, known as the "silent region", and alkyne signals in this region were first utilized a decade ago to visualize the nuclear localization of a thymidine analogue EdU. Since then, the strategy of Raman imaging of biological samples by using alkyne functional groups, called alkyne-tag Raman imaging (ATRI), has become widely used. This article reviews the applications of ATRI in biological samples ranging from organelles to whole animal models, and briefly discusses the prospects for this technique.

Abstract
Cholesterol is an essential component of eukaryotic cellular membranes. Information about its subcellular localization and transport pathways inside cells are key for the understanding and treatment of cholesterol-related diseases. In this review we give an overview over the most commonly used methods that contributed to our current understanding of subcellular cholesterol localization and transport routes. First, we discuss methods that provide insights into cholesterol metabolism based on readouts of downstream effects such as esterification. Subsequently, we focus on the use of cholesterol-binding molecules as probes that facilitate visualization and quantification of sterols inside of cells. Finally, we explore different analogues of cholesterol which, when taken up by living cells, are integrated and transported in a similar fashion as endogenous sterols. Taken together, we highlight the challenges and advantages of each method such that researchers studying aspects of cholesterol transport may choose the most pertinent approach for their problem.

Abstract
Raman probes based on alkyne or nitrile tags hold promise for highly multiplexed imaging. However, sensing of enzyme activities with Raman probes is difficult because few mechanisms are available to modulate the vibrational response. Here we present a general strategy to prepare activatable Raman probes that show enhanced Raman signals due to electronic preresonance (EPR) upon reaction with enzymes under physiological conditions. We identified a xanthene derivative bearing a nitrile group at position 9 (9CN-JCP) as a suitable scaffold dye, and synthesized four types of activatable Raman probes, which are targeted to different enzymes (three aminopeptidases and a glycosidase) and tuned to different vibrational frequencies by isotope editing of the nitrile group. We validated the activation of the Raman signals of these probes by the target enzymes and succeeded in simultaneous imaging of the four enzyme activities in live cells. Different cell lines showed different patterns of these enzyme activities.

Abstract
Direct imaging of metabolism in cells or multicellular organisms is important for understanding many biological processes. Raman scattering (RS) microscopy, particularly, coherent Raman scattering (CRS) such as coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), has emerged as a powerful platform for cellular imaging due to its high chemical selectivity, sensitivity, and imaging speed. RS microscopy has been extensively used for the identification of subcellular structures, metabolic observation, and phenotypic characterization. Conjugating RS modalities with other techniques such as fluorescence or infrared (IR) spectroscopy, flow cytometry, and RNA-sequencing can further extend the applications of RS imaging in microbiology, system biology, neurology, tumor biology and more. Here we overview RS modalities and techniques for mammalian cell and tissue imaging, with a focus on the advances and applications of CARS and SRS microscopy, for a better understanding of the metabolism and dynamics of lipids, protein, glucose, and nucleic acids in mammalian cells and tissues. This article is categorized under: Laboratory Methods and Technologies > Imaging Biological Mechanisms > Metabolism Analytical and Computational Methods > Analytical Methods.

Abstract
We propose to monitor molecular vibrations to identify metal ion-ligand complexation by means of Raman spectroscopy, which has been applied to track vibrational modes of molecules and to obtain a structural fingerprint. We prepared ligand molecules for Zn2+ ion complexation with a dipycolylaminoethyl aniline (DPEA) skeleton and phenylacetylene unit as the Raman tag which showed a typical band around 2200 cm-1. Among the labeled ligands synthesized in this study, A-DPEA showed a strong band attributed to the acetylene unit at 2212 cm-1, while the addition of Zn2+ ion resulted in a band shift to 2220 cm-1 due to complex formation. The addition of other metal ions and titration experiments showed that A-DPEA bound with Zn2+ selectively with a dissociation constant (K d) that was estimated to be 0.22 μM. We also conducted cellular experiments and found that complexation between A-DPEA and Zn2+ also occurred in cells, with a shift in the Raman signal of the ligand from 2212 to 2215 cm-1. Thus, complex formation of the metal ion was identified by monitoring the Raman band shift.

Abstract
20-hydroxycholesterol is a signaling oxysterol with immunomodulating functions and, thus, structural analogues with reporter capabilities could be useful for studying and modulating the cellular processes concerned. We have synthesized three new 20-hydroxycholesterol-like pregn-5-en-3β-ol derivatives with fluorescent 7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD) or Raman-sensitive alkyne labels in their side-chains. In silico computations demonstrated the compounds possess good membrane permeability and can bind within active sites of known 20-hydroxycholesterol targets (e.g. Smoothened and yeast Osh4) and some other sterol-binding proteins (human LXRβ and STARD1; yeast START-kins Lam4S2 and Lam2S2). Having found good predicted membrane permeability and binding to some yeast proteins, we tested the compounds on microorganisms. Fluorescent microscopy indicated the uptake of the steroids by both Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Yarrowia lipolytica, whereas only S. cerevisiae demonstrated conversion of the compounds into 3-O-acetates, likely because 3-O-acetyltransferase Atf2p is present only in its genome. The new compounds provide new options to study the uptake, intracellular distribution and metabolism of sterols in yeast cells as well as might be used as ligands for sterol-binding proteins.

Abstract
Cellular imaging is an active area of research that enables researchers to monitor cellular dynamics, as well as responses to various external stimuli (physiological stress, exogenous compounds, etc.). Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy is one popular experimental tool used to image cells, largely because of its chemical specificity, high spatial resolution, and high image acquisition speed. In this Perspective, the theoretical background and experimental implementation of SRS microscopy are discussed and recent developments in the field of cellular imaging with SRS are highlighted and summarized.

Abstract
Optical microscopy has served biomedical research for decades due to its high temporal and spatial resolutions. Among various optical imaging techniques, fluorescence imaging offers superb sensitivity down to single molecule level but its multiplexing capacity is limited by intrinsically broad bandwidth. To simultaneously capture a vast number of targets, the newly emerging vibrational microscopy technique draws increasing attention as vibration spectroscopy features narrow transition linewidth. Nonetheless, unlike fluorophores that have been studied for centuries, a systematic investigation on vibrational probes is underemphasized. Herein, we reviewed some of the recent developments of vibrational probes for multiplex imaging applications, particularly those serving stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) microscopy, which is one of the most promising vibrational imaging techniques. We wish to summarize the general guidelines for developing bioorthogonal vibrational probes with high sensitivity, chemical specificity and most importantly, tunability to fulfill super-multiplexed optical imaging. Future directions to significantly improve the performance are also discussed.

Abstract
Live intracellular imaging is a valuable tool in modern diagnostics and pharmacology. Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) stands out as a non-destructive and multiplexed technique, but intracellular SERS imaging still suffers from interfering background from endogenous components. Here we show the assembly of small colloidal SERS probes with Raman signal in the cell-silent window of 1800–2900 cm−1 for biorthogonal intracellular SERS imaging of dopamine that was undistinguishable from the endogenous cell background. By linking colloidal silver nanoparticles with alkyne-dopamine adducts, clusters are formed by 2–6 nanoparticles spaced by tight interparticle gaps that exhibited high electric field enhancement and strong SERS signals of alkyne and dopamines. Due to the cell-silent signals of the alkyne, intracellular in-vitro Raman imaging shows that the dopamines on the internalized clusters remain distinguishable across the cytoplasm with good spatial resolution. Our method can be a general-purpose method for real-time imaging of biomolecules, such as proteins, peptides, DNA and drugs.

Noncanonical Function of a Small-Molecular Virulence Factor Coronatine against Plant Immunity: An In Vivo Raman Imaging Approach. ACS CENTRAL SCIENCE 2017; 3:462-472.

Abstract
Coronatine (1), a small-molecular virulence factor produced by plant-pathogenic bacteria, promotes bacterial infection by inducing the opening of stomatal pores, the major route of bacterial entry into the plant, via the jasmonate-mediated COI1-JAZ signaling pathway. However, this pathway is also important for multiple plant functions, including defense against wounding by herbivorous insects. Thus, suppression of the COI1-JAZ signaling pathway to block bacterial infection would concomitantly impair plant defense against herbivorous wounding. Here, we report additional, COI1-JAZ-independent, action of 1 in Arabidopsis thaliana guard cells. First, we found that a stereoisomer of 1 regulates the movement of Arabidopsis guard cells without affecting COI1-JAZ signaling. Second, we found using alkyne-tagged Raman imaging (ATRI) that 1 is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of living guard cells of Arabidopsis. The use of arc6 mutant lacking chloroplast formation was pivotal to circumvent the issue of autofluorescence during ATRI. These findings indicate that 1 has an ER-related action on Arabidopsis stomata that bypasses the COI1-JAZ signaling module. It may be possible to suppress the action of 1 on stomata without impairing plant defense responses against herbivores.
