Abstract
As a signal molecule, SO2 plays an important role in the process of cell metabolism. The abnormal level of sulfur dioxide will induce many diseases of human body. Viscosity is an important index of lysosome. Abnormal lysosome viscosity can also lead to many diseases. Therefore, we have developed a new fluorescence probe PAPD for simultaneous imaging of sulfur dioxide derivatives and lysosomal viscosity. The probe realizes rapid detection of HSO3− based on Michael addition reaction mechanism. At the same time, with the increase of viscosity, intramolecular rotation is inhibited, thus the probe shows sensitive fluorescence enhancement. In addition, the results of the co-localization experiments show that PAPD has good lysosomal targeting ability. Further studies show that PAPD can be used as a dual-responsive fluorescence probe for SO2 and viscosity in lysosomes.
