Article Abstract
In this paper, two pyridinium styryl dyes, [2-(4-dimethylamino-phenyl)-vinyl]-1-methylpyridinium iodide (DASPMI), were synthesized and characterized by steady state fluorescence spectroscopy as well as picosecond and femtosecond time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopies. Both dyes exhibit large Stokes shifts and fluorescence decays equivalent to the instrument response function (IRF) standards employed in time-correlated single-photon counting. Due to their styryl and pyridinium moieties, DASPMIs have higher peak fluorescence intensity and shorter excited-state lifetimes than iodide ion-quenched fluorophores. The fluorescence lifetimes of o-DASPMI and p-DASPMI were measured to be 6.6 ps and 12.4 ps, respectively. The fluorescence transients of these DASPMIs were used as the IRFs for iterative reconvolution fitting of the time-resolved fluorescence decay profiles of Rhodamine B (RhB), sulforhodamine B (SRB), and the SRB-SRB2m RNA aptamer complex. The quality of the fits employing the DASPMI-derived IRFs are consistently equivalent to those employing IRFs obtained from light scattering. These results indicate that DASPMI-derived IRFs may be suited for a broad range of applications in time-resolved spectroscopy and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), especially in the visible emission range.

Styrylpyridinium dye bearing azadithia-15-crown-5 ether receptor group SP and 4-alkoxy-1,8-naphthalimide fluorophore were linked using copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition click reaction to afford dyad compound NI-SP. Chemosensor NI-SP exhibited selective ratiometric fluorescent response to the presence of Hg in aqueous solution due to the interplay between resonance energy transfer (RET) and intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) processes occurred upon excitation. The observed switching of the ratio of emission intensities in the blue and red channels R was higher than in the case of monochromophoric styrylpyridine derivative SP showing ratiometric response based on ICT mechanism only.

The interaction of a styryl(pyridinium)-chromene hybrid dye (DSP-C) with the 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) macrocycle leads to a remarkably large increase (∼310-fold) in its fluorescence intensity, in contrast to the relatively smaller (∼45-fold) enhancement observed with native β-cyclodextrin (βCD). Both macrocycles (βCD and HPβCD) bind with the styryl(pyridinium) as well as the chromene fragments of the hybrid dye, with the simultaneous formation of 1:1 and 2:1 host:guest complexes. However, the binding constant (K) is more than an order of magnitude higher for HPβCD than for βCD.

The organic cation transporter (OCT)-1 mediates hepatic uptake of cationic endogenous compounds and xenobiotics. To date, limited information exists on how Oct1/OCT1 functionally develops with age in rat and human livers and how this would affect the pharmacokinetics of OCT substrates in children or juvenile animals. The functional ontogeny of rOct/hOCT was profiled in suspended rat (2-57 days old) and human hepatocytes (pediatric liver tissue donors: age 2-12 months) by determining uptake clearance of 4-[4-(dimethylamino)styryl]-N-methylpyridinium iodide (ASP+) as a known rOct/hOCT probe substrate.

Two ionic liquids (ILs) with amphiphilic properties composed of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dioctylsulfosuccinate (bmim-AOT) and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium dioctylsulfosuccinate (hmim-AOT) form unilamellar vesicles spontaneously simply by dissolving the IL-like surfactant in water. These novel vesicles were characterized using two different and highly sensitive fluorescent probes: 6-propionyl-2-(dimethylaminonaphthalene) (PRODAN) and -4-[4-(dimethylamino)-styryl]-1-methylpyridinium iodide (HC). These fluorescent probes provide information about the physicochemical properties of the bilayer, such as micropolarity, microviscosity, and electron-donor capacity.

The polarised expression of specific transporters in proximal tubular epithelial cells is important for the renal clearance of many endogenous and exogenous compounds. Thus, ideally, the in vitro tools utilised for predictions would have a similar expression of apical and basolateral xenobiotic transporters as in vivo. Here, we assessed the functionality of organic cation and anion transporters in proximal tubular-like cells (PTL) differentiated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), primary human proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTEC), and telomerase-immortalised human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (RPTEC/TERT1).
