Abstract

Systematic optimization of the aza-BODIPY dye platform facilitated planarization and a red-shift in the absorbance. SR-APNO-3 enabled the first validated detection of cancer-derived nitric oxide with PA imaging.

Highlights

  • Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species represent a major class of biological signaling molecules

  • Nitric oxide (NO) is a key signaling molecule involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes

  • We report the optimization of an activatable photoacoustic probe for NO by planarizing the boron-azadipyrromethene dye platform via steric relaxation

Summary

Introduction

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species represent a major class of biological signaling molecules. We report the optimization of an activatable photoacoustic probe for NO by planarizing the boron-azadipyrromethene (aza-BODIPY) dye platform via steric relaxation.
