Abstract

A series of naphthalimide dyes (TRNATR, MOTNAMOT, MPNAMP, TYNATY, PNAP and IZNAIZ) were designed and synthesized by altering the side chains of the naphthalimide. Without the need for ER-targeting groups, the first five dyes were found to specifically target the ER, likely due to their well-suited lipophilic properties. Furthermore, TRNATR and TYNATY were proven effective for studying ER stress, showing promise in tracking ER autophagy in living cells triggered by tunicamycin and nutritional starvation.
