A novel nanoprobe platform with two-photon dye-doped silica nanoparticles was developed for FRET-based ratiometric biosensing and bioimaging targeting endogenous ATP. The nanoprobe showed satisfactory ratiometric fluorescence responses for ATP detection with high sensitivity and selectivity in vivo, indicating its potential as a valuable molecular imaging tool for biomedical applications.
Two-photon fluorescence imaging is one of the most attractive imaging techniques for monitoring important biomolecules in the biomedical field due to its advantages of low light scattering, high penetration depth, and suppressed photodamage/phototoxicity under near-infrared excitation. However, in actual biological imaging, organic two-photon fluorescent dyes have disadvantages such as high biological toxicity and their fluorescence efficiency is easily affected by the complex environment in organisms. In this study, a novel nanoprobe platform with two-photon dye-doped silica nanoparticles was developed for FRET-based ratiometric biosensing and bioimaging, with endogenous ATP chosen as the target for detection. The nanoprobe has three components: (1) a two-photon dye-doped silica nanoparticle core, which serves as an energy donor for FRET; (2) amino-modified hairpin primers with carboxy fluorescein as an energy acceptor for FRET; (3) an aptamer acting as a recognition unit to realize the probing function. The nanoprobe showed ratiometric fluorescence responses for ATP detection with high sensitivity and high selectivity in vivo. Moreover, the nanoprobe showed satisfactory ratiometric two-photon fluorescence imaging of endogenous ATP in living cells and tissues (penetration depth of 190 nm). These results indicated that novel two-photon silica nanoparticles can be constructed by doping a two-photon fluorescent dye into silica nanoparticles, and they can effectively solve the disadvantages of two-photon fluorescent dyes. These excellent performances indicate that this novel nanoprobe platform will become a very valuable molecular imaging tool, which can be widely used in the biomedical field for drug screening and disease diagnosis and other related research.
