AI Technical Summary
Existing fluorescent probes make it difficult to comprehensively monitor the mitochondrial autophagy process, especially under oxidative stress conditions, and are unable to achieve highly selective detection of peroxynitrite and mitochondrial-targeted tracing.
A ratiometric fluorescent probe NA-DP was developed by incorporating diphenylphosphinyl and triphenylphosphine groups into the naphthalimide backbone. The highly selective detection of peroxynitrite was achieved through an addition-elimination reaction mechanism. The mitochondrial targeting of the triphenylphosphine group, combined with the fluorescence stability in an acidic pH environment, was used to successfully trace oxidative stress-induced mitophagy.
The in situ dynamic imaging of the oxidative stress-induced mitophagy process was achieved, which improved the precision and accuracy of the detection and enabled the monitoring of the entire process of mitophagy from induction to occurrence and development at the cellular level.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of fine chemical technology, and in particular to a naphthaleneimide compound and its preparation method and application. Background Art
[0002] Mitochondria are essential for maintaining human health, acting as energy generators and participating in many important metabolic processes. Mitochondrial autophagy is a lysosome-dependent process that is used to clear dysfunctional mitochondria and maintain the integrity of normally functioning mitochondria in response to mitochondrial damage. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key signaling molecules in oxidative stress that can trigger mitochondrial dysfunction and mitophagy. Dysregulation of mitophagy is associated with a variety of diseases, such as tumors, neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, aging, etc. Monitoring and tracking the mitophagy process triggered by oxidative stress is of great significance for elucidating its role in maintaining cellular homeostasis, physiological and pathological processes.
[0003] Currently reported fluorescent probes for detecting mitophagy are primarily based on changes in mitochondrial pH, viscosity, polarity, and membrane potential. However, only a few studies have comprehensively monitored the entire mitophagy process, including induction and progression. Because ROS plays a key role as an indicator in oxidative stress-induced mitophagy models, combining ROS detection with mitophagy monitoring will provide new insights into the biological mechanisms of mitophagy. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention develops a ratiometric fluorescent probe NA-DP, which is specifically used to detect peroxynitrite (ONOO - ) and subsequent oxidative stress-induced mitophagy. Diphenylphosphinyl and triphenylphosphine groups were incorporated into the naphthalimide backbone to give the probe ONOO - response and mitochondrial targeting ability. - The effect of NA-DP on ONOO is based on the addition-elimination reaction mechanism, so even under the interference of other reactive oxygen species, the probe NA-DP - Also showed high selectivity. - In the presence of triphenylphosphine, the diphenylphosphine group is converted to a hydroxyl group, enhancing the electron-donating ability of the donor and thus the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect, generating a ratiometric fluorescence signal. Subsequently, based on the mitochondrial targeting ability of the triphenylphosphine group and the fluorescence stability of the probe in acidic pH environments, the overlap between the NA-DP probe channel and the lysosomal tracer (LysoTracker) channel was observed to successfully track oxidative stress-induced mitophagy in cells.

The figure shows a significant decrease in the UV-vis absorption of NA-DP at 370nm within 40 minutes, while an increase at 450nm causes the solution color to change from colorless to yellow. Simultaneously, the fluorescence emission peak at 550nm significantly increases, while that at 450nm decreases, causing the solution's fluorescence color to change from blue to yellow. Figure 1 D. Figure 1 E were NA-DP (20 μM) and different concentrations of ONOO - Spectral diagram of absorption and fluorescence changes after 15 minutes of action (0-30μM); Figure 1 F is the fluorescence intensity of NA-DP (20 μM) after 15 min of reaction (I 550 nm / I 450nm )With ONOO - The concentration (0-30μM) curve. As shown in the figure, with the increase of ONOO - The concentration increased from 0μM to 30μM, and after 15min of response, the absorption and emission spectra showed a good linear change. Therefore, the fluorescence intensity lg(I 550 nm / I 450 nm ) and ONOO - There is a good linear correlation between the concentrations (R 2 =0.9810), and the detection limit (LOD) was 0.31 μM, indicating that the probe has the ability to sensitively detect low concentrations of ONOO - The self-correction capability of the ratiometric fluorescence signal further improves the detection accuracy.

[0072] The probe NA-DP prepared in Example 1-2 was respectively mixed with other competitive substances (1: blank control; 2: ONOO - ;3: H2O2; 4: NaClO; 5: ·OH; 6: 1 O2;7:O2 ·- ;8: Cys; 9: GSH; 10: HCy; 11: Na + ;12:K + ;13:Ca 2+) was added to PBS buffer (10 mM, pH = 7.4, V / V, EtOH / PBS = 1 / 1). After 40 min of incubation, the concentration of NA-DP was 20 μM and the concentration of other competing substances was 100 μM. The fluorescence intensity of NA-DP at 550 nm was detected. The results are as follows. Figure 2 As shown in A, after 40 min of incubation, ONOO - The fluorescence changes of NA-DP (20 μM) at 550 nm (1: blank control; 2: ONOO - ;3: H2O2; 4: NaClO; 5: ·OH; 6: 1 O2;7:O2 ·- ;8: Cys; 9: GSH; 10: HCy; 11: Na + ;12:K + ;13:Ca 2+ ). As can be seen from the figure, the fluorescence intensity of NA-DP at 550nm is only - In the presence of β-catenin, the fluorescence enhancement was observed within 40 min, while the fluorescence enhancement effect of other analytes was minimal. Figure 2 B is with ONOO - Normalized absorption spectra of NA-OH and NA-DP before and after incubation. - After the interaction, the absorption spectrum of NA-DP overlaps well with that of NA-OH, which indicates that the luminescent substance NA-OH is produced by hydrolysis of the NA-DP structure. Figure 2 C and D are the fluorescence spectra of NA-DP (20 μM) and NA-OH (20 μM) in PBS buffer (10 mM, V / V, EtOH / PBS = 1 / 1) as the pH changes. The emission spectra were obtained under 420 nm excitation. As can be seen from the figure, the absorption and emission of NA-DP are stable in the pH range of 4.0-10.0. - The absorbance of NA-OH changed to some extent in the pH range of 4.0 to 10.0, but the emission intensity of NA-OH remained significant. The above results indicate that NA-DP and NA-OH are pH stable, highlighting the potential of the probe to detect ONOO - The potential for mitophagy (pH 4.5-9.0) was then tracked.

[0074] Use ONOO -Donor 5-amino-3-(4-morpholinyl)-1,2,3-oxadiazole hydrochloride (SIN-1) or ONOO - HeLa cells were pretreated with the scavenger uric acid (UA). The control group was treated with NA-DP (10 μM) for 30 minutes. The SIN-1 group was treated with SIN-1 (2 mM) for 3 hours, followed by NA-DP (10 μM) for 30 minutes.
[0075] The specific operation of the SIN-1 / UA group was as follows: HeLa cells were pre-incubated with UA (0.5 mM) for 1.5 h, then SIN-1 (2 mM) was added for 3 h, and finally NA-DP (10 μM) was added for 30 min. Figure 3 A is the fluorescence imaging of the Control group, SIN-1 group, and SIN-1 / UA group. Figure 3 B is a quantitative analysis of the fluorescence ratio (G / B) of the Control group, SIN-1 group, and SIN-1 / UA group. As shown in the figure, compared with the control group, SIN-1 pretreatment can lead to a significant increase in the fluorescence intensity ratio (G / B) of the green channel and blue channel of NA-DP in HeLa cells, while UA pretreatment cells significantly reduced the enhanced fluorescence intensity ratio (G / B) induced by SIN-1, thus confirming the effect of NA-DP on ONOO - Sensitivity to changes in levels.

[0077] In the control group, HepG2 cells were treated with NA-DP (10 μM) for 30 min. In the APAP group, HepG2 cells were pre-incubated with 4 mM APAP for 48 h, followed by the addition of NA-DP (10 μM) for 30 min. In the APAP / NAC group, HepG2 cells were co-incubated with 4 mM APAP and 1 mM N-acetylcysteine (NAC) for 48 h, followed by the addition of NA-DP (10 μM) for 30 min.
[0078] Figure 4 A is the fluorescence imaging of the Control group, APAP group, and APAP / NAC group.
[0079] Figure 4B is the quantitative analysis graph of the fluorescence ratio (G / B) of the Control group, APAP group, and APAP / NAC group.
[0080] As shown in the figure, HepG2 cells are used as a standard in vitro model for drug-induced liver injury (DILI) research. In the absence of acetaminophen (APAP), the fluorescence intensity ratio (G / B) of the green channel to the blue channel of NA-DP (10μM) in HepG2 cells is low. However, after 48h of pretreatment with 4mM APAP, a significant increase in the G / B value was observed after the addition of NA-DP (10μM), indicating that ONOO - Pre-incubation of HepG2 cells with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) resulted in a significant decrease in the G / B value, which was similar to that of ONOO - These results demonstrate the effectiveness of NA-DP in monitoring the progression of liver injury and evaluating liver-protective interventions. Blue channel: Ex / Em = 405 / 420-500 nm. Green channel: Ex / Em = 405 / 550-650 nm. Data are presented as mean ± SD of three replicate experiments. Statistical analysis: **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
[0081] Example 7 Mitochondrial targeting ability
[0082] HeLa cells were co-stained with NA-DP and the tracer Tracker and then observed using a confocal microscope. Figure 5 A. Figure 5 As shown in B, Figure 5 A is the co-localization fluorescence imaging of NA-DP (10 μM) with mitochondrial tracer (MitoTracker) (100 nM) and lysosomal tracer (LysoTracker) (100 nM) in HeLa cells. Figure 5 B is the co-localization fluorescence imaging of NAB-DP (10 μM) with mitochondrial tracer (MitoTracker) (100 nM) and lysosomal tracer (LysoTracker) (100 nM) in HeLa cells.
[0083] As can be seen from the figure, the fluorescence channel after merging NA-DP and LysoTracker showed a low Pearson correlation coefficient (PC) of 0.69, indicating that there is a certain degree of obvious localization between the NA-DP probe and the lysosomal compartment. When HeLa cells were co-stained with NA-DP and MitoTracker, a significantly higher PC value (0.88) was observed, demonstrating significant mitochondrial targeting ability. Fluorescence co-localization imaging experiments of NAB-DP and Tracker showed that the PC values of MitoTracker (PC = 0.67) and LysoTracker (PC = 0.55) were very low, indicating that NAB-DP has poor mitochondrial targeting ability in the absence of the triphenylphosphine group. Among them, the blue channel: Ex / Em = 405 / 420-500nm. The red channel: Ex / Em = 561 / 570-650nm.
[0084] Example 8 Mitochondrial Autophagy Imaging
[0085] HeLa cells were sequentially incubated with NA-DP (10 μM) / NAB-DP (10 μM) and LysoTracker (100 nM), and then treated with carbonyl cyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) (50 μM). Figure 6 A is a fluorescence imaging image of the co-localization of NA-DP (10 μM) and lysosomal tracer (LysoTracker) (100 nM) after HeLa cells were induced to undergo mitophagy using carbonyl cyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) (50 μM). Figure 6 B is a fluorescence imaging image of co-localization of NAB-DP (10 μM) and lysosomal tracer (LysoTracker) (100 nM) after HeLa cells were induced to undergo mitophagy using carbonyl cyanide-3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) (50 μM). During the mitophagy process, the fluorescence of the green channel is clearly visible ( Figure 6 ), which is consistent with the pH response spectrum of NA-OH in solution. As the CCCP incubation time increases, the PC value of the combined fluorescence channel of NA-DP and LysoTracker gradually increases from 0.67 to 0.75. Figure 6 The fluorescence color at the location indicated by the middle arrow approaches the merged color, indicating a continuous increase in autophagy. With increasing CCCP treatment time, the merged fluorescence channel of the control compound NAB-DP and LysoTracker under the same conditions showed no enhanced PC, and the colors of the two channels at the location indicated by the arrow showed no overlap. These results confirm the ability of the probe NA-DP to accurately track mitophagy. For the green channel, Ex / Em = 405 / 550-650nm. For the red channel, Ex / Em = 561 / 570-650nm.
[0086] In summary, the novel probe for detecting peroxynitrite and subsequent oxidative-induced mitophagy of the present invention achieves a ratiometric fluorescence response to peroxynitrite by introducing a brominated diphenylphosphinyl group into a hydroxynaphthalimide fluorophore containing a triphenylphosphine group. The pH stability of the fluorescence ensures that the fluorescence signal has a consistent and significant intensity during the mitophagy tracing process. The addition-elimination reaction mechanism of the diphenylphosphinyl group with peroxynitrite greatly improves the selectivity of the probe, while the mitochondrial targeting of triphenylphosphine significantly improves the accuracy of mitophagy tracing. The probe successfully achieved in situ dynamic imaging of oxidative stress-induced mitophagy in cell experiments, providing new insights into the development of probes for monitoring the entire process of mitophagy from induction to occurrence and development.
