Multi-dimensional imaging of endogenous leucine aminopeptidase via fast response fluorescent read-out probe

Haiqing Zhang et al.

Summary: The study presents a fast-response fluorescent read-out probe, NBD-S-Leu, for imaging LAP in living cancer cells and zebrafish models, featuring excellent water solubility, fast response, low cytotoxicity, and tissue permeability. Through 2.5D and 3D confocal imaging, the endogenous LAP distribution in different cells and zebrafish organs was clearly observed for the first time. The fluorescent read-out system not only provides an alternative method for accurate detection of LAP activity but also helps LAP-related pathological analysis and inhibitor screening in living organisms.
