Abstract

The invention discloses a fluorescent probe method for monitoring Zn<2+> in cancer cells. The fluorescent probe method utilizes bis-(7-hydroxy-coumarin-8-aldehyde)ethylenediamine as a fluorescent probe of a trace amount of Zn<2+>. Through the selectively-formed probe-Zn<2+> complex characteristic of emitting 457nm wavelength strong fluorescence, the probe and Zn<2+> are respectively permeated into active cancer cells so that fusion with the cells is realized. After Zn<2+> in cells is dyed by the probe, a distinct blue fluorescent cell image is detected and showed by an inverted fluorescence microscope. The probe is used as a fluorescent imaging reagent of Zn<2+> in active cancer cells. The probe has a chemical structural formula shown in the following description.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of analytical chemistry, in particular to a method for Zn in living cancer cells 2+ Fluorescent probe method of detection. Background technique [0002] Cell is the basic unit of life activities and the basic unit of all organic life forms. Cell research is the starting point of all life science research, and its growth, aging and other periodic phenomena will directly affect the life activities of organisms. Some heavy metals and transition metal elements have very important physiological roles and functions because of their participation in cell growth and development, gene transcription, neurotransmission, etc. It will cause obvious damage to the shape and structure. Therefore, to study the effects of various ions on organisms, a very necessary step is the online visualization and real-time monitoring of ions in living cells. Live cell imaging technology is an important research method in the field of life scien...
