Catecholamines, such as dopamine and L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), are associated with different physiological functions and diseases. In our recent studies, a novel water-soluble boronic acid compound 3c was identified as a selective fluorescent sensor for L-DOPA. This compound not only has the ability to interact with dopamine and catechol, but also has no fluorescence intensity change for L-DOPA precursors in vivo, such as L-tyrosine.
儿茶酚胺类物质,如多巴胺和L-二羟基苯丙氨酸(L-DOPA),与不同的生理功能和疾病相关。在我们最近的研究中,一种新型水溶性硼酸化合物3c被鉴定为L-DOPA的选择性荧光传感器。该化合物不仅能够与多巴胺和儿茶酚相互作用,而且对体内L-DOPA的前体,如L-酪氨酸,没有荧光强度变化。
