Fluorescent probes for biothiols have aroused increasing interest owing to their potential to enable better understanding of the diverse physiological and pathological processes related to the biothiol species. BODIPY fluorophores exhibit excellent optical properties, which can be readily tailored by ...
Fluorescent probeCysteineHomocysteineBiothiols, such as glutathione (GSH), homocysteine (Hcy) and cysteine (Cys), are important biomarkers and play crucial roles in many physiological processes. Thus, the detection of biothiols is highly important for early diagnosis of diseases and evaluation of ...
A series of BODIPY-based fluorescent probes incorporating different kinds of hydrophilic groups were synthesized for the detection of biothiols (GSH as a representative target), namely BDP (control), BDP-OH (acidic), BDP-OEG (neutral and hydrophilic) and BDP-QA (cationic). The incorporation of ...
