Fluorescent organic nanoparticle formation in lysosomes for cancer cell recognition.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a convenient method to prepare fluorophores 3- or 3,7-divinyl substituted 10H-phenothiazines and their protonation forms can aggregate to become fluorescent organic nanoparticles (FONs) with bright fluorescent spots in the lysosomes of cancer cells but not normal cells.

A general strategy for developing cell-permeable photo-modulatable organic fluorescent probes for live-cell super-resolution imaging
Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) achieves super-resolution imaging beyond the diffraction limit but critically relies on the use of photo-modulatable fluorescent probes. Here we report a general strategy for constructing cell-permeable photo-modulatable organic fluorescent probes for live-cell SMLM by exploiting the remarkable cytosolic delivery ability of a cell-penetrating pepti...
متن کاملFluorescent Contrast agent Based on Graphene Quantum Dots Decorated Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for Detecting and Sorting Cancer Cells
Background and Objectives: The inability of classic fluorescence-activated cell sorting to single cancer cell sorting is one of the most significant drawbacks of this method. The sorting of cancer cells in microdroplets significantly influences our ability to analyze cancer cell proteins. Material and Methods: We adapted a developed microfluidic device as a 3D in vitro model to sorted MCF-7 c...

متن کاملElution of Labile Fluorescent Dye from Nanoparticles during Biological Use
Cells act as extremely efficient filters for elution of unbound fluorescent tags or impurities associated with nanoparticles, including those that cannot be removed by extensive cleaning. This has consequences for quantification of nanoparticle uptake and sub-cellular localization in vitro and in vivo as a result of the presence of significant amount of labile dye even following extensive clean...
