Recent progress and outlooks in rhodamine-based fluorescent probes for detection and imaging of reactive oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur species. Talanta 2024; 274:126004. [PMID: 38564824 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126004] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and reactive sulfur species (RSS) serve as vital mediators essential for preserving intracellular redox homeostasis within the human body, thereby possessing significant implications across physiological and pathological domains. Nevertheless, deviations from normal levels of ROS, RNS, and RSS disturb redox homeostasis, leading to detrimental consequences that compromise bodily integrity. This disruption is closely linked to the onset of various human diseases, thereby posing a substantial threat to human health and survival. Small-molecule fluorescent probes exhibit considerable potential as analytical instruments for the monitoring of ROS, RNS, and RSS due to their exceptional sensitivity and selectivity, operational simplicity, non-invasiveness, localization capabilities, and ability to facilitate in situ optical signal generation for real-time dynamic analyte monitoring. Due to their distinctive transition from their spirocyclic form (non-fluorescent) to their ring-opened form (fluorescent), along with their exceptional light stability, broad wavelength range, high fluorescence quantum yield, and high extinction coefficient, rhodamine fluorophores have been extensively employed in the development of fluorescent probes. This review primarily concentrates on the investigation of fluorescent probes utilizing rhodamine dyes for ROS, RNS, and RSS detection from the perspective of different response groups since 2016. The scope of this review encompasses the design of probe structures, elucidation of response mechanisms, and exploration of biological applications.

Abstract
Co-N-CDs-based MXene nanocomposites (MXene@PDA/Co-N-CDs) were constructed by decorating Co-N-CDs on polydopamine-functionalized MXene nanosheets. Both Co-N-CDs and MXene nanosheets have peroxidase-like activity; when the two materials are combined to form MXene@PDA/Co-N-CDs nanocomposites, the peroxide-like activity can be further enhanced. MXene@PDA/Co-N-CDs could oxidize the substrate 3,3'5,5'-tetramethylbenziline (TMB) to form ox-TMB, as confirmed by detecting the absorption of the blue products. A highly selective colorimetric biosensor was developed for the determination of glutathione (GSH) in the concentration range of 0.3 to 20 µM with a lower detection limit (LOD) of 0.12 µM, which realized the accurate detection of GSH in human serum and urine samples. Moreover, in the tumor microenvironment, MXene@PDA/Co-N-CDs could catalyze hydrogen peroxide to produce hydroxyl free radicals and produce a photothermal effect under the exposure of NIR-I irradiation. The catalytic activity of MXene@PDA/Co-N-CD nanocomposites was fully achieved for the death of cancer cells through photothermal/photodynamic synergistic therapy. The MXene@PDA/Co-N-CDs nanozyme offers multiple applications in GSH detection and tumor therapy.

Abstract
Dynamic variations in the concentration and abnormal distribution of endogenous biomarkers are strongly associated with multiple physiological and pathological states. Therefore, it is crucial to design imaging systems capable of real-time detection of dynamic changes in biomarkers for the accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of diseases. Recently, ratiometric imaging has emerged as a widely used technique for sensing and imaging of biomarkers due to its advantage of circumventing the limitations inherent to conventional intensity-dependent signal readout methods while also providing built-in self-calibration for signal correction. Here, the recent progress of ratiometric probes and their applications in sensing and imaging of biomarkers are outlined. Ratiometric probes are classified according to their imaging mechanisms, and ratiometric photoacoustic imaging, ratiometric optical imaging including photoluminescence imaging and self-luminescence imaging, ratiometric magnetic resonance imaging, and dual-modal ratiometric imaging are discussed. The applications of ratiometric probes in the sensing and imaging of biomarkers such as pH, reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), glutathione (GSH), gas molecules, enzymes, metal ions, and hypoxia are discussed in detail. Additionally, this Review presents an overview of challenges faced in this field along with future research directions.

Abstract
In recent years, the dual/multi-organelle-targeted fluorescent probe based on small organic molecules has good biocompatibility and can visualize the interaction between different organelles, which has attracted much attention. In addition, these probes can also be used to detect small molecules in the organelle environment, such as active sulfur species (RSS), reactive oxygen species (ROS), pH, viscosity and so on. However, the review of dual/multi-organelle-targeted fluorescent probe for small organic molecules lacks a systematic summary, which may hinder the development of this field. In this review, we will focus on the design strategies and bioimaging applications of dual/multi-organelle-targeted fluorescent probe, and classify them into six classes according to different organelles targeted. The first class probe targeted mitochondria and lysosome. The second class probe targeted endoplasmic reticulum and lysosome. The third class probe targeted mitochondria and lipid droplets. The fourth class probe targeted endoplasmic reticulum and lipid droplets. The fifth class probe targeted lysosome and lipid droplets. The sixth class multi-targeted probe. The mechanism of these probes targeting organelles and the visualization of the interaction between different organelles are emphasized, and the prospect and future development direction of this research field are prospected. This will provide a systematic idea for the development and functional research of dual/multi-organelle-targeted fluorescent probe, and promote its research in related physiological and pathological medicine field in the future.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes that emit in the far-red (600-700 nm), first near-infrared (NIR-I, 700-900 nm), and second NIR (NIR-II, 900-1700 nm) regions possess unique advantages, including low photodamage and deep penetration into biological samples. Notably, NIR-II optical imaging can achieve tissue penetration as deep as 5-20 mm, which is critical for biomedical sensing and clinical applications. Much research has focused on developing far-red to NIR-II dyes to meet the needs of modern biomedicine. Flavylium compounds are natural colorants found in many flowers and fruits. Flavylium-inspired dyes are ideal platforms for constructing fluorescent probes because of their far-red to NIR emissions, high quantum yields, high molar extinction coefficients, and good water solubilities. The synthetic and structural diversities of flavylium dyes also enable NIR-II probe development, which markedly advance the field of NIR-II in vivo imaging. In the last decade, there have been huge developments in flavylium-inspired dyes and their applications as far-red to NIR fluorescent probes for biomedical applications. In this review, we highlight the optical properties of representative flavylium dyes, design strategies, sensing mechanisms, and applications as fluorescent probes for detecting and visualizing important biomedical species and events. This review will prompt further research not only on flavylium dyes, but also into all far-red to NIR fluorophores and fluorescent probes. Moreover, this interest will hopefully spillover into applications related to complex biological systems and clinical treatments, ranging in focus from the sub-organelle to whole-animal levels.

Abstract
Biological thiols are crucial small molecule amino acids widely existing in cells, which play indispensable roles in maintaining redox homeostasis of living systems. Owing to their abnormal levels have close relation with many diseases, thus, developing more convenient, rapid and practical in-vivo detection tools is imminent. Herein, a reversible coumarin-based probe (HNA) was successfully constructed through a simple two-step synthesis. HNA can detect Cys/Hcy with high response speed and desirable selectivity based on Michael addition recognition mechanism. Free HNA has an orange emission at 580 nm, but after addition of Cys/Hcy, the conjugated structure of probe HNA was destroyed by the attack of sulfhydryl, resulting in a new green emission at 507 nm. Further, HNA has been applied to monitor Cys/Hcy in HeLa cells and zebrafish. Notably, HNA has also been successfully applied for real-time tracing Cys levels changes in living cells and zebrafish during the imbalance in redox status caused by copper (II). This provides a new strategy for studying the process of oxidative stress in cells.

A novel selective probe for detecting glutathione from other biothiols based on the concept of Fluorescence Fusion. Anal Chim Acta 2021; 1177:338786.

Abstract
Biological thiols importantly regulate the intracellular redox activity and metabolic level, but many of the developed probes for biothiols are facing difficulty in effectively distinguishing GSH from Cys/Hcy due to the similarity in mechanism. In this work, despite the previous pattern of "Logic Gate", we reported the concept of "Fluorescence Fusion" for the first time to achieve only one excitation-emission process. The exploited the probe, MZ-NBD, could quickly measure GSH in 10 min with a large Stokes shift (130 nm). Though the reacting mechanism was similar, only GSH could cause the "Fluorescence Fusion" with only one strong fluorescence response while Cys/Hcy caused two peaks. Adjusting the excitation wavelength could hardly split the fused peak into two. Though image recognition by artificial intelligence could easily distinguish the patterns of peaks, here we used the signal-treating method to realize the high selectivity towards GSH. Moreover, MZ-NBD could be utilized for rapid detection of GSH in living MCF-7 cells, which was more suitable for GSH than using the "Logic Gate" strategy. More than introducing a novel probe with the new concept, this work was meaningful as the linker of traditional reaction-based fluorescent probes and potential image recognition by artificial intelligence, thus led to various future researches in inter-disciplines.

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.

Abstract
A facile one-pot method for synthesis of bovine serum albumin (BSA)-gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) has been developed. The formation of BSA-AuNCs took only 30 s under mild conditions. BSA-AuNCs exhibited strong orange-yellow fluorescence, and the excitation and emission peaks were at 370 nm and 564 nm, respectively. In the process of forming BSA-AuNCs, the molecular chain of BSA has not been destroyed. Moreover, there were a large number of Au cations on the surface of BSA-AuNCs, which had strong oxidizing abilities. The reason for the ultrabright fluorescence of BSA-AuNCs was attributed to the Au(0)@Au(I)@Au(III)-ligand structure on the surface of BSA. In order to evaluate the fluorescence performance of BSA-AuNCs, BSA-AuNCs was used as a probe, realizing the sensitive and selective determination of glutathione (GSH) in a wide linear range of 0.01-0.48 μM and a detection limit of 3.3 nM. The proposed method not only offers a brand-new scheme for synthesizing BSA-AuNCs, but also provides a platform for studying the interaction between metal core and proteins. A facile one-pot method to synthesize ultrabright fluorescent BSA-AuNCs in tens of seconds has been introduced by mixing BSA suspension, KSCN, and HAuCl4. The as-prepared BSA-AuNCs showed intensive orange-yellow fluorescence under a UV lamp (365 nm), and BSA still keeps the integral molecular chains during the whole synthesis process. Moreover, the as-prepared BSA-AuNCs have realized the sensitive and selective detection of glutathione (GSH) in a wide linear range of 0.01-0.48 μM and a detection limit of 3.3 nM.

Abstract
Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) is often applied to construct fluorescent probes for acquiring high selectivity and sensitivity. According to the FRET theory, a homodimer composed of two identical fluorophores with a small Stokes shift has only weak fluorescence due to homo-FRET between fluorophores, and the fluorescence could be recovered after the destruction of the homodimer. In this study, we designed and synthesized a homodimer fluorescent probe, namely 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-8-(4'-phenylthiophenol)-boron difluoride-dipyrrole methane dimer (D-TMSPB), based on this turn-on strategy. In D-TMSPB, the disulfide moiety was selected as the response moiety of biothiols, and BODIPY fluorophore was chosen as both donor and acceptor in FRET due to the ultra-small Stokes shifts and obvious overlap of its excitation/emission peak. D-TMSPB exhibited only weak fluorescence. After selective reaction with biothiols, FRET was destroyed and the derivative exhibited strong fluorescence at 514 nm with the limit of detection of about 0.15 μM for GSH. Notably, the derivative of biothiols shows remarkable fluorescence only in acidic conditions, which accords with the internal environment of lysosome. Thus, D-TMSPB was applied to image the biothiols of lysosome in living cells. The turn-on fluorescence of D-TMSPB indicated that homo-FRET is a practical strategy to design turn-on fluorescent probes, particularly for the sensing mechanism based on leaving groups.

Abstract
In the last few decades, growing numbers of fluorescent probes have been developed to detect intracellular GSH. However, the majority of probes for GSH were irreversible without monitoring the changes of intracellular GSH concentration. Therefore, recently, fluorescent probes for monitoring concentrations of GSH in real-time in living cells have come into being to address this challenge. This Perspective aimed at the development of reversible probes for GSH was organized by structural features, chemical reactions, and physicochemical properties. The reversible probes designed by a coumarin skeleton as a read-out fluorophore and the Michael addition reaction as a response mechanism accounted for most of the reported reversible probes. The performances of reversible fluorescent probes based on Michael addition could be roughly predicted by fundamental laws of kinetics and thermodynamics in physical chemistry. Essentially, the design principles included a highly reactive site for GSH, a small thermodynamic driving force, a desirable Kd of 1-10 mM, and excellent cell membrane permeability. Prospectively, the development of various mechanisms and fluorophores will be effective measures to enrich the types of reversible probes for GSH.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH), the most abundant nonprotein thiol found in living organisms, are involved in the etiology and progression of many human diseases including cancer. So, monitoring changes of cellular GSH levels has an important guiding significance. To date, however, majority of probes can only qualitatively detect GSH in living cells. Herein, with coumarin as the read-out fluorophore and Michael addition as the sensing mechanism, six fluorescent probes were designed and synthesized. Among them, RP-2 exhibited a reversible and extremely fast response toward GSH (half time: ∼3 s), which endowed RP-2 the capacity of real-time imaging. Among the reversible probes based on Michael addition, RP-2 had both the largest forward and reverse rate constants thus far. The reaction between RP-2 and GSH was studied in detail by density functional theory and fluorescence spectroscopy. Real-time imaging of GSH levels in living cells was achieved with a temporal resolution of seconds. To simplify the processing of images, a program was developed and validated. RP-2 was expected to serve as a new fluorescent imaging tool to understand the function of intracellular GSH in the future.

Abstract
The rapid development of nanotechnology results in the emergence of nanomedicines, but the effective delivery of drugs to tumor sites remains a great challenge. Prodrug-based cancer nanomedicines thus emerged due to their unique advantages, including high drug load efficiency, reduced side effects, efficient targeting, and real-time controllability. A distinctive characteristic of prodrug-based nanomedicines is that they need to be activated by a stimulus or multi-stimulus to produce an anti-tumor effect. A better understanding of various responsive approaches could allow researchers to perceive the mechanism of prodrug-based nanomedicines effectively and further optimize their design strategy. In this review, we highlight the stimuli-responsive pathway of prodrug-based nanomedicines and their anticancer applications. Furthermore, various types of prodrug-based nanomedicines, recent progress and prospects of stimuli-responsive prodrug-based nanomedicines and patient data in the clinical application are also summarized. Additionally, the current development and future challenges of prodrug-based nanomedicines are discussed. We expect that this review will be valuable for readers to gain a deeper understanding of the structure and development of prodrug-based cancer nanomedicines to design rational and effective drugs for clinical use.

Abstract
Intracellular GSH is the most abundant non-protein biothiol and acts as a central antioxidant to defend against aging toxins and radicals. Meanwhile abnormal level of intracellular GSH concentration is directly related to some diseases. In this case, detecting intracellular GSH rapidly and sensitively is of great significance. We synthesize a simple fluorescent probe (named GP) which can discriminate GSH from Cys (cysteine) or Hcy (homocysteine) and presents a 50-fold fluorescence increasing. The response time of GP to GSH was only 5 min and the product GO (the product of GP after reacting with GSH) after reacting with GSH possesses a larger Stokes shift for 135 nm than that in reported work. Probe GP can detect intracellular effectively and shows obvious yellow fluorescence. Briefly, probe GP can detect intracellular GSH rapidly and effectively both in vitro and in living cells.

Abstract
The dynamic fluctuations of bioactive species in living cells are associated with numerous physiological and pathological phenomena. The emergence of organelle-targeted fluorescent probes has significantly facilitated our understanding on the biological functions of these species. This review describes the design, applications, challenges and potential directions of organelle-targeted bioactive species probes.
Bioactive species, including reactive oxygen species (ROS, including O2˙–, H2O2, HOCl, 1O2, ˙OH, HOBr, etc.), reactive nitrogen species (RNS, including ONOO–, NO, NO2, HNO, etc.), reactive sulfur species (RSS, including GSH, Hcy, Cys, H2S, H2Sn, SO2 derivatives, etc.), ATP, HCHO, CO and so on, are a highly important category of molecules in living cells. The dynamic fluctuations of these molecules in subcellular microenvironments determine cellular homeostasis, signal conduction, immunity and metabolism. However, their abnormal expressions can cause disorders which are associated with diverse major diseases. Monitoring bioactive molecules in subcellular structures is therefore critical for bioanalysis and related drug discovery. With the emergence of organelle-targeted fluorescent probes, significant progress has been made in subcellular imaging. Among the developed subcellular localization fluorescent tools, ROS, RNS and RSS (RONSS) probes are highly attractive, owing to their potential for revealing the physiological and pathological functions of these highly reactive, interactive and interconvertible molecules during diverse biological events, which are rather significant for advancing our understanding of different life phenomena and exploring new technologies for life regulation. This review mainly illustrates the design principles, detection mechanisms, current challenges, and potential future directions of organelle-targeted fluorescent probes toward RONSS.

Abstract
As the members of reactive sulfur species, SO₂ and biothiols play a significant role in physiological and pathological processes and directly influence numerous diseases. Furthermore, SO₂ and biothiols can provide a reductive environment for lysosomes to carry out their optimal functionality. To this end, the development of single fluorescent probes for imaging SO₂ and biothiols from different emission channels is highly desirable for understanding their physiological nature. Here, a lysosome-targeted fluorescent probe (BPO-DNSP) with a dual reaction site for SO₂ and biothiols was presented. BPO-DNSP can sensitively and selectively respond to SO₂ in the green channel with a large Stokes shift over 105 nm, and to biothiols in the near-infrared emission channel with a large Stokes shift over 109 nm. The emission shift for the two channels was as high as 170 nm. Colocalization experiments verified that BPO-DNSP can selectively enrich lysosomes. Notably, BPO-DNSP can not only be used to image intracellular SO₂ and biothiols from two different channels, but also to monitor the conversion of biothiols to SO₂ without adding exogenous enzymes in living HeLa cells.

Abstract
Lysosomes, which can be easily targeted by molecules with abundant amino groups, play critical roles in endocytosis, autophagy, and phagocytosis; thus, it is important to accurately characterize lysosomes, including lysosomal pH, in living cells to understand their physiological and pathological functions. Herein, a new type of highly photoluminescent (PL) emerald carbon dots (CDs) was easily prepared through a functional preservation strategy (FPS) by simply mixing p-benzoquinone and ethanediamine at room temperature. The as-prepared CDs possessed abundant amino groups preserved from ethanediamine owing to FPS, and they exhibited excellent photostability as compared to the commercial LysoTracker probes. Consequently, they actively targeted lysosomes to sensitively respond to lysosomal pH in vitro owing to their abundant amino groups and good hydrophilicity. Thus, we could successfully monitor lysosomal pH dynamics during apoptosis in live cells.

Abstract
The determination of biological thiols is considered to be of great interest because of the participation of these molecules in physiological disorders as indicators of their existence and progress, such as Alzheimer's disease, cancer, and cystic fibrosis, among others. Optical techniques for the quantification of these analytes are superior to other techniques in terms of selectivity, sensitivity, and cost. We describe here a simple protocol to determine biological thiols by means of a colorimetric analysis based on a magenta color interaction with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid). This methodology leverages the technology developed in smartphones, and it can be transferred to a simple analytical procedure through the use of absorbent strips and a cell phone. Excellent characteristics were observed, and this method opens up alternative avenues for the detection of biological thiols in a very simple and portable manner.

Abstract
Rationale: Among the biothiols-related diseases, sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection and can result in severe oxidative stress and damage to multiple organs. In this study, we aimed to develop a fluorescence chemosensor that can both detect GSH and further predict sepsis. Methods: In this study, two new naphthalene dialdehyde compounds containing different functional groups were synthesized, and the sensing abilities of these compounds towards biothiols and its applications for prediction of sepsis were investigated. Results: Our study revealed that the newly developed probe 6-methoxynaphthalene-2, 3-dicarbaldehyde (MNDA) has two-photon is capable of detecting GSH in live cells with two-photon microscopy (TPM) under the excitation at a wavelength of 900 nm. Furthermore, two GSH detection probes naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde (NDA) and 6-fluoronaphthalene-2,3-dicarbaldehyde (FNDA) not only can detect GSH in living cells, but also showed clinical significance for the diagnosis and prediction of mortality in patients with sepsis. Conclusions: These results open up a promising direction for further medical diagnostic techniques.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is the major non-protein thiol in humans and other mammals, which is present in millimolar concentrations within cells, but at much lower concentrations in the blood plasma. GSH and GSH-related enzymes act both to prevent oxidative damage and to detoxify electrophiles. Under oxidative stress, two GSH molecules become linked by a disulphide bridge to form glutathione disulphide (GSSG). Therefore, assessment of the GSH/GSSG ratio may provide an estimation of cellular redox metabolism. Current evidence resulting from studies in human blood, solid tissues, and cultured cells suggests that GSH also plays a prominent role in protein redox regulation via S -glutathionylation, i.e., the conjugation of GSH to reactive protein cysteine residues. A number of methodologies that enable quantitative analysis of GSH/GSSG ratio and S-glutathionylated proteins (PSSG), as well as identification and visualization of PSSG in tissue sections or cultured cells are currently available. Here, we have considered the main methodologies applied for GSH, GSSG and PSSG detection in biological samples. This review paper provides an up-to-date critical overview of the application of the most relevant analytical, morphological, and proteomics approaches to detect and analyse GSH, GSSG and PSSG in mammalian samples as well as discusses their current limitations.
