We have exemplified a pretargeted approach to interrogate hypoxia in live cells using radioactive bioorthogonal inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) "click" chemistry. Our novel F-tetrazine probe ([F]FB-Tz) and 2-nitroimidazole-based TCO targeting molecule () showed statistically significant ( < 0.0001) uptake in hypoxic cells ( 90 %ID per mg) normoxic cells (<10 %ID per mg) in a 60 min incubation of [F]FB-Tz. This is the first time that an intracellularly targeted small-molecule for IEDDA "click" has been used in conjunction with a radioactive reporter molecule in live cells and may be a useful tool with far-reaching applicability for a variety of applications.
我们展示了一种预靶向方法,利用放射性生物正交逆电子需求狄尔斯-阿尔德(IEDDA)“点击”化学来研究活细胞中的缺氧情况。我们新型的氟代四嗪探针([F]FB-Tz)和基于2-硝基咪唑的反式环辛烯靶向分子在[F]FB-Tz孵育60分钟后,在缺氧细胞(每毫克90%注射剂量)中的摄取量与常氧细胞(每毫克<10%注射剂量)相比具有统计学显著差异(<0.0001)。这是首次将用于IEDDA“点击”的细胞内靶向小分子与放射性报告分子结合用于活细胞,并且可能是一种具有广泛适用性的有用工具,可用于多种应用。
