摘要:

设计合成了2种新型聚集诱导发光(AIE)探针TPA-H与TPA-2F. 这2种探针均表现出优异的生物相容性(浓度高达50 µmol/L时, 细胞存活率仍超过90%)和脂滴靶向特异性. 在3T3-L1脂肪细胞的早期分化过程中, TPA-2F与TPA-H均能清晰显像BODIPY难以检测的微小以及新生脂滴, 显示出更优的成像灵敏度. 此外, TPA-2F展现出高的光稳定性, 在连续100次激光扫描后, 其荧光强度仍保持初始值的90%以上. 研究结果不仅提供了2种高性能的脂滴成像工具, 更凸显了AIE发光材料在细胞器特异性生物成像中的应用潜力, 为脂质相关代谢疾病的早期诊断与机制研究提供了新的可能途径.

Abstract:

Two novel aggregation-induced emission(AIE)-active probes, TPA-H and TPA-2F, were designed and synthesized based on a triphenylamine(TPA) core. Systematic characterization demonstrated that both probes exhibit excellent biocompatibility(cell viability>90% at concentrations up to 50 µmol/L) and outstanding LD-targeting specificity with minimal colocalization with other organelles such as mitochondria and lysosomes. During early differentiation of 3T3-L1 adipocytes, both TPA-2F and TPA-H clearly visualized small and nascent LDs that were difficult to be detected with BODIPY, indicating superior imaging sensitivity compared to the existing fluorescent probes for LDs. Moreover, TPA-2F demonstrated exceptional photostability, retaining over 90% of its initial fluorescence intensity after 100 continuous laser scanning cycles, significantly outperforming TPA-H. This work not only provides two high-performance LD imaging tools but also highlights the potential of AIE luminogens(AIEgens) in organelle-specific bioimaging, offering promising avenues for early diagnosis and mechanistic research of lipid-related metabolic diseases.
