چکیده

A BODIPY-based dye, OBEP, has been developed to act as a mitochondrial fluorescence probe. This dye is of high stability, low toxicity and insensitive in a pH range as wide as pH 2-10. Its uptake into mitochondria is independent of mitochondrial membrane potential in living cells. OBEP can label swollen mitochondria resulting from different degrees of cell damage in light and resist fading even after 12 h of incubation.

A near-infrared dye based on BODIPY for tracking morphology changes in mitochondria.

M-DPT, a BODIPY-based water soluble near-infrared fluorescent probe with thiophene at the 1,7-position, is synthesized. M-DPT is found to possess high specificity to mitochondria, superior photostability, and appreciable tolerance to microenvironmental changes. Thus, this probe is a highly suitable imaging agent for targeting mitochondria and tracking morphology changes.

Highly fluorescent and bioresorbable polymeric nanoparticles with enhanced photostability for cell imaging.

We report a facile and general strategy for enhancing the photostability of organic fluorophores for bioimaging applications. As a proof of concept, bright and robust fluorescence was observed in solid states of a well-defined synthetic polymer polycaprolactone consisting of di(thiophene-2-yl)-diketopyrrolopyrrole covalently linked in the middle of the polymer chain as a biocompatible and biore...
