This study presents the design and synthesis of a dually responsive reporter for detecting the dynamic presence of NO and H2S in living cells. By cycling S-nitrosation and transnitrosation reactions, the designed reporter allows interchange of NIR fluorescence at 645 nm (NO) and NIR II fluorescence at 936 nm (H2S). Water-soluble BOD-NH-SC dots were synthesized for visualizing the intracellular dynamics of NO and H2S, providing a toolbox to elucidate the interplaying roles of these gasotransmitters in various signal transduction pathways.
Understanding the complex interplay among gasotransmitters is of great significance but remains technically challenging. In this study, we present the design and synthesis of a dually responsive BOD-NH-SC reporter for probing the dynamic and alternating existence of NO and H2S in living cells. This designed reporter can repeatedly cycle S-nitrosation and transnitrosation reactions when successively treated with NO and H2S, thus affording the interchange of NIR fluorescence at 645 nm (NO) and NIR II fluorescence at 936 nm (H2S). In light of this unique fluorescence alternation between two colors, we synthesized water-soluble BOD-NH-SC dots to visualize the intracellular dynamics of NO and H2S. These molecular probes thus provide a toolbox to elucidate the interplaying roles of NO and H2S in the complex interaction networks of various signal transduction pathways.
