Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of hydrogen sulfide and peroxynitrite ion detection, in particular to a near-infrared fluorescent probe DCI-TSO based on an ICT mechanism, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is considered the third key gas transmitter after nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, and has been proven to exist in various tissues and organs of mammals and participate in various physiological and pathological processes, and can freely cross the cell membrane without relying on transport proteins and membrane receptors. The physiological concentration of H2S in mammalian blood is between 30-100 mM, and the physiological concentration level in the brain is between 50-160 mM. Clinical studies have shown that H2S mainly exists in the form of HS - in mammals at normal physiological levels, and maintains a dynamic balance, playing a very important role in relaxing smooth muscle, regulating neuronal transmission, regulating insulin release and anti-inflammation.

[0003] Peroxynitrite (ONOO - ) is one of the important reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and plays an important role in physiological and pathological processes, especially in a series of oxidative stress-related diseases. It has strong oxidizing and nucleophilic properties on many bioactive molecules, and overexpressed ONOO - can oxidize multiple targets or produce free radicals with high reactivity, leading to structural modification and dysfunction of proteins, nucleic acids and lipids, and producing severe cytotoxicity, which is closely related to various diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

[0004] The concentrations of H2S and ONOO - in biological systems are closely related to health. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop efficient and convenient tools for detecting H2S and ONOO - in biological systems. Traditional techniques such as colorimetry, gas chromatography and electrochemical voltammetry cannot achieve in-situ real-time detection and are not suitable for non-invasive in-situ detection and real-time imaging of living cells. In recent years, fluorescent probe technology has been greatly developed due to its unique advantages in real-time imaging, short response time, high sensitivity and low biological toxicity.

[0079] Test test

[0080] The performance test of the probe DCI-TSO prepared in Example 1 is as follows:

[0081] (1) Spectral test

[0082] 1) Spectral measurement conditions:

[0083] The probe DCI-TSO was dissolved in DMSO to prepare a standard solution with a concentration of 1.0 mmol / L. 100.0 μL of the probe standard solution was added to a colorimetric tube, followed by 100.0 μL of the ion solution to be measured, 1.0 mL of DMSO, and 1.0 mL of PBS buffer solution (pH = 7.4). Deionized water was added to make up to 5.0 mL, and the mixture was shaken well. The ultraviolet absorption spectrum and fluorescence emission spectrum of the probe before and after the response to ions were measured using an ultraviolet absorption spectrometer and a fluorescence spectrophotometer. When scanning the system responding to H2S, the conditions were λ ex = 430 nm, slits: 5 / 10 nm, 700 V; and when scanning the system responding to ONOO - , the conditions were λ ex = 500 nm, slits: 10 / 10 nm, 700 V.

[0084] The results are as follows:

[0085] As shown in Figure 4 (A), the probe DCI-TSO has a clear ultraviolet absorption at 390 nm, and after responding to H2S, the absorption spectrum of the probe is red-shifted to 435 nm. After responding to ONOO - , the absorption intensity of the probe at 390 nm is obviously decreased, and the absorption intensity at 505 nm is obviously increased, so that it is judged that the structure of the probe changes after responding to H2S or ONOO - , and the absorption wavelength of the probe is red-shifted. Then, the excitation and emission spectra of the probe DCI-TSO before and after responding to H2S and ONOO - , respectively, were scanned, as shown in Figure 4 (B), the probe DCI-TSO has no fluorescence emission at 570 nm and 655 nm under the excitation wavelength of 430 nm and 500 nm, respectively. After adding H2S and ONOO - , respectively, the fluorescence intensity of the probe at 570 nm and 655 nm is obviously enhanced, and it can be clearly observed that there are different excitation and emission wavelengths, and they do not interfere with each other when responding to H2S and ONOO - , respectively. The probe can be used to detect H2S and ONOO - , respectively.

[0086] 2) Effect of concentration on fluorescence intensity

[0087] Firstly, the relationship between H2S concentration and probe fluorescence intensity was explored, and the same solvent system as above was used, i.e. 100.0 μL of DCI-TSO probe solution with a concentration of 1.0 mmol / L was added, and 1.0 mL of DMSO, 1.0 mL of PBS buffer solution (pH = 7.4), and deionized water were added to make the total volume 5.0 mL. The fluorescence intensity of the probe after responding to ions with different concentrations was scanned. The relationship between ONOO - concentration and the fluorescence intensity of the probe DCI-TSO was explored in the same way as above, and ONOO - concentration gradient was 0-90.0 μM, with 19 groups.

[0088] The results are as follows:

[0089] As shown in Figure 5 (A), under excitation at 430 nm, the fluorescence intensity of the probe DCI-TSO at 570 nm gradually increased with the increase of H2S concentration. Figure 5 (B) is a linear relationship diagram of the concentration titration fluorescence intensity of the probe DCI-TSO and H2S. The H2S concentration had a good linearity between 0.0-70.0 μM (Y = 29.5112X + 62.8619, the correlation coefficient R 2 reached 0.9989), and the minimum detection limit was 132.4 nM. Then the relationship between the probe and ONOO - concentration was explored, as shown in Figure 5 (C), the concentration titration fluorescence spectrum of the probe and ONOO - showed that under excitation at 500 nm, the fluorescence intensity of the probe at 655 nm gradually increased in proportion to the ONOO - concentration. Figure 5 (D) is a linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity of the probe and the ONOO - concentration. A good linearity was shown within the linear range of 0.0-65.0 μM, the correlation coefficient R 2 was 0.9988, and the minimum detection limit was 97.2 nM. It can be seen that the probe DCI-TSO can be used to detect the concentration changes of H2S and ONOO - .

[0090] 3) Time dependence and pH stability determination of the probe

[0091] Time dependence: 100.0 μL of DCI-TSO probe standard solution was added to a colorimetric tube, and 100.0 μL of responding ions, 1.0 mL of DMSO, 1.0 mL of PBS buffer solution, and deionized water were added to make the total volume 5.0 mL. After shaking, the fluorescence spectrum before and after adding ions was determined.

[0092] pH stability study: according to the above system, the colorimetric tube was added with the probe DCI-TSO and the responding ions, then DMSO was added, and then PBS buffer solution with different pH values was added, the pH range was 2-13, and each pH unit was measured once, and the fluorescence spectrum at different pH values was measured.

[0093] The results are as follows:

[0094] As shown in Figure 6 (A) and Figure 6 (C), the probe itself does not show fluorescence intensity without the addition of response ions under the excitation of 430 nm and 500 nm wavelengths. After the response with H2S, the fluorescence signal is obviously enhanced compared with that before the addition, and the fluorescence signal quickly tends to be balanced (within 1 min). Similarly, after the addition of ONOO - , the probe can be observed to have obvious fluorescence signal, quickly reach the maximum absorption intensity, and maintain stable fluorescence intensity within 30 min. Thus, it can be shown that the probe DCI-TSO can quickly identify the concentration changes of H2S and ONOO - , and has excellent light stability.

[0095] Subsequently, it was evaluated whether DCI-TSO can achieve detection of H2S and ONOO - in the pH 2-12 range, as shown in Figure 6 (B) and Figure 6 (D), the probe DCI-TSO itself has almost no fluorescence production under the condition of pH 2-12, and is not sensitive to the pH environment. Subsequently, the fluorescence intensity change of the probe DCI-TSO before and after the addition of ions H2S and ONOO - was detected under different pH conditions, and the probe DCI-TSO has stable responsiveness to H2S in the pH=5-9 range, and has good fluorescence response to ONOO - in the pH=4-8 range. The above shows that the probe DCI-TSO can achieve detection of H2S and ONOO - under physiological conditions.

[0096] 4) Determination of selectivity and competition of the probe

[0097] Determination of selectivity of the probe: 100.0 μL of the DCI-TSO probe standard solution was added to the colorimetric tube, 100.0 μL of the prepared common active oxygen, active sulfur, metal ions were added, respectively, 1.0 mL of DMSO and 1.0 mL of PBS buffer solution were added, and deionized water was added to 5.0 mL, and then shaken, and the fluorescence spectrum was measured.

[0098] The competitive determination of the probe: 100.0 μL of the DCI-TSO probe standard solution was added to a colorimetric tube, followed by 100.0 μL of the responding ion, 1.0 mL of DMSO and 1.0 mL of PBS buffer solution, and deionized water was added to 5.0 mL, and then it was shaken uniformly, and the fluorescence spectrum was measured.

[0099] The results are as follows:

[0100] As shown in Figure 7 (A), after the probe DCI-TSO was added to various ions, the fluorescence spectrum of the solution was scanned, and after H2S was added, under the excitation of 430 nm wavelength, the probe exhibited a strong fluorescence signal at 570 nm compared with other ions. However, after other active ions were added, no fluorescence signal was exhibited, and after ONOO - was added, the probe also did not exhibit obvious fluorescence intensity at 570 nm, but exhibited weak fluorescence intensity at 650 nm, which did not interfere with the detection of H2S, indicating that the probe had good selectivity for H2S. Subsequently, competitive research was carried out, as shown in Figure 7 (B), after the probe was added to H2S, other interfering ions were added, and it was found that the fluorescence intensity did not change obviously. The above results show that the probe DCI-TSO has good selectivity and anti-interference ability for H2S under the excitation of 430 nm wavelength.

[0101] As shown in Figure 7 (C), after the DCI-TSO probe was added to ONOO - , under the excitation of 500 nm wavelength, the fluorescence signal of the probe at 655 nm was obviously enhanced. After other active ions were reacted with the probe, the fluorescence signal of the probe did not change. In the competitive research, as shown in Figure 7 (D), after the probe was reacted with ONOO - , other active interfering ions were added, and the fluorescence intensity of the probe was basically not affected. In summary, it is shown that the probe DCI-TSO exhibits good specific selectivity and anti-interference ability for H2S and ONOO - , and the detection of H2S and ONOO - does not interfere with each other under different excitation wavelengths.

[0102] In the process of studying the selectivity, it was also found that the detection of H2S and ONOO - by the probe DCI-TSO can be realized by naked eye observation. After the probe was added to the ion to be detected, it was observed under the daylight lamp and the 365 nm ultraviolet lamp, respectively, as shown in Figure 7 (E) and Figure 7(F) shown, under daylight lamp, the probe is colorless and transparent after adding other ions, the solution becomes yellow after H2S ion response, the solution becomes pink after ONOO - - ion response; under UV lamp, other ions emit blue fluorescence, H2S ion solution emits orange-yellow fluorescence, and ONOO - ion solution emits pink fluorescence, indicating that the probe DCI-TSO can realize naked-eye detection of H2S and ONOO

[0103] (2) Biocompatibility test

[0104] MTT method was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of the probe DCI-TSO. HepG2 cell suspension was inoculated into 96-well plate culture medium, and cultured in a 5% CO2, 37°C incubator for 24 h, then standard concentration of DCI-TSO probe solution (0.0 μM, 0.5 μM, 1.0 μM, 2.0 μM, 5.0 μM, 10.0 μM, 15.0 μM) was added accurately, and incubated in the incubator for 24 h. After incubation, 100.0 μL of MTT solution (0.50 mg / mL) was added to each well, and incubated for 4 h. 100.0 μL of supernatant was aspirated, 100.0 μL of DMSO was added, and the tin paper was wrapped and shaken in a shaker for 15 min. The absorbance of the solution at 490 nm was recorded using a microplate reader.

[0105] The results are as follows:

[0106] As shown in Figure 8 , even at a probe concentration of 15 μM, the survival rate of cells can still reach more than 85%.

[0107] (3) Application example 1 prepared probe DCI-TSO to detect intracellular peroxynitrite ion

[0108] The specific process is as follows:

[0109] ​The incubated HepG2 cell suspension was inoculated into a confocal special dish, washed with PBS solution three times, and an appropriate amount of culture medium was added. The dish was placed in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours to allow the cells to adhere. After incubation, the cells were incubated with 10 μM probe DCI-TSO in tin foil under light protection at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 20 minutes. After completion, the cells were washed three times with PBS buffer and divided into three groups. In the first group, the probe was incubated with different concentrations of H2S in the incubator under light protection for 20 minutes. The H2S concentrations were 0.0 μM, 5.0 μM, 10.0 μM, and 15.0 μM, respectively. After incubation, the cells were washed three times with PBS buffer and subjected to confocal imaging. The second group was the same as the first group, and 0.0 μM, 5.0 μM, 10.0 μM, and 15.0 μM of ONOO - were added, respectively. After 20 minutes of incubation in the incubator under light protection, the cells were washed with PBS and subjected to confocal imaging. In the third group, the cells were divided into three groups: a blank group with only the probe, and two groups with the addition of 10.0 μM H2S and ONOO - , respectively. After incubation, the cells were washed with PBS and subjected to confocal imaging. The H2S group was imaged under the orange channel, and the ONOO - group was imaged under the red channel.

[0110] The results are as follows:

[0111] As shown in Figure 9 (A), first, the probe DCI-TSO with a concentration of 10.0 μM was co-incubated with the cells, and then H2S and ONOO - with concentrations of 0.0 μM, 5.0 μM, 10.0 μM, and 15.0 μM, respectively, were incubated with the cells for 20 minutes. After co-incubation, confocal imaging was performed. In the blank group without ions, there was almost no fluorescence in the orange channel. After incubation with different concentrations of H2S, obvious fluorescence was observed in the orange channel, and the fluorescence intensity gradually increased with increasing H2S concentration. Then, imaging experiments were performed on ONOO - , as shown in Figure 9 (B). Similarly, after co-incubation of the probe with ONOO - , there was almost no fluorescence signal in the red channel when the cells were incubated with only the probe. When incubated with different concentrations of ONOO - , the fluorescence intensity in the red channel increased with increasing ONOO - concentration. This indicates that the probe DCI-TSO can detect H2S and ONOO - in living cells and achieve visual imaging.

[0112] Finally, H2S and ONOO -Meanwhile, the fluorescence imaging of the probe DCI-TSO in living cells was explored. As shown in Figure 9(C), after incubation of the probe with cells, the probe was co-incubated with H2S and ONOO - , and fluorescence imaging was performed under orange and red channels, respectively. No fluorescence was observed in the blank group, and yellow fluorescence was observed under the orange channel when H2S and ONOO - coexisted, while red fluorescence was observed under the red channel. - The results showed that different fluorescence signals could be observed under different channels when H2S and ONOO - coexisted, and H2S and ONOO - could be detected and imaged in living cells, respectively, and the two fluorescence signals did not interfere with each other.

[0113] Therefore, the present application adopts the above-mentioned near-infrared fluorescent probe DCI-TSO based on the ICT mechanism, and the preparation method and application thereof, and the dual-channel detection of H2S and ONOO - has good optical properties and biocompatibility, and has great commercial application value.
