Novel red Zn(ii) complex-based fluorescent probes featuring cryptolepine-curcumin derivatives, namely, [Zn(BQ)Cl] (BQ-Zn) and [Zn(BQ)(Cur)]Cl (BQCur-Zn), were developed for the simple and fluorescent label-free detection of apoptosis, an important biological process. The probes could synergistically promote mitochondrion-mediated apoptosis and enhance tumor therapeutic effects in vitro and vivo.
新型红色 Zn(ii) 配合物荧光探针以隐丹参酮-姜黄素衍生物为配体,即 [Zn(BQ)Cl](BQ-Zn)和 [Zn(BQ)(Cur)]Cl(BQCur-Zn),用于简单且无荧光标记的细胞凋亡检测,细胞凋亡是一种重要的生物学过程。该探针可以协同促进线粒体介导的细胞凋亡,并增强体外和体内的肿瘤治疗效果。
