AI Article Synopsis
- The study highlights the need for fluorescent probes specifically designed for histamine H receptors (HR), particularly in human and mouse, as alternatives to radioligands.
- Researchers synthesized and characterized Py-5-labeled histamine derivatives, identifying UR-DEBa242, which acts as a partial agonist for the human HR and displays inverse agonist properties for human/mouse HRs.
- The successful use of this probe in confocal microscopy for live cell studies and BRET-based binding analyses demonstrates its potential to effectively assess HR localization and binding affinities of different ligands.
Article Abstract
Comprehensively characterized fluorescent probes for the histamine H receptor (HR) and especially for the HR orthologs [e.g., human (h) and mouse (m)] are highly needed as versatile complementary tools to radioligands. In view of fluorescent probes for BRET-based binding studies and for localizing the HR in live cells, we synthesized and biologically characterized Py-5-labeled histamine derivatives. The most notable compound was UR-DEBa242 (, 1-[4-(1-Imidazol-4-yl)butyl]-4-{(1,3)-4-[4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]buta-1,3-dienyl}-2,6-dimethylpyridinium hydrotrifluoroacetate trifluoroacetate), acting as a partial agonist at the hHR [pEC (reporter gene) 8.77] and as an inverse agonist/antagonist at the h/mHRs [pIC (reporter gene) 8.76/7.08; pIC/p (β-arrestin2) 7.81/7.30]. In confocal microscopy, proved suitable for hHR localization and trafficking studies in live cells. BRET-based binding at the NLuc-hHRs/mHR [p 8.78/7.75/7.18, comparable to binding constants from radioligand binding/flow cytometry; fast association/dissociation (∼2 min)] revealed as a useful molecular tool to determine hHRs/mHR binding affinities of ligands binding to these receptors.

Construction of single probes for simultaneous detection of common trivalent metal ions has attracted much attention due to higher efficiency in analysis and cost. A naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe K1 was synthesized for selective detection of Al, Cr and Fe ions. Fluorescence emission intensity at 534 nm of probe K1 in DMSO/HO (9:1, v/v) was significantly enhanced upon addition of Al, Cr and Fe ions while addition of other metal ions (Li, Na, K, Ag, Cu, Fe, Zn, Co, Ni, Mn, Sr, Hg, Ca, Mg, Ce, Bi and Au) did not bring about substantial change in fluorescence emission.

HClO is considered a potential contributing factor and biomarker of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Accurate monitoring of lysosomal HClO is important for further developing specific diagnostic and therapeutic schedules for IBD. However, only rare types of fluorescent probes have been reported for detecting HClO in IBD so far.

Glutathione (GSH) plays a crucial role in various physiological processes and its imbalances are closely related to various pathological conditions. Probes for detection and imaging of GSH are not only useful for understanding GSH chemical biology but are also important for exploring potential theranostic agents. Herein, we report a fast intramolecular thiol-activated arylselenoamides ()-based fluorescent probe using 2,4-dinitrophenyl alkylthioether as a sulfydryl-selective receptor for the first time.
