We report here a new phenomenon of dynamic enhancement of chemical reactions by nanomaterials under hard X-ray irradiation. The nanomaterials were gold and platinum nanoparticles, and the chemical reaction employed was the hydroxylation of coumarin carboxylic acid. The reaction yield was enhanced 2000 times over that predicted on the basis of the absorption of X-rays only by the nanoparticles, and the enhancement was found for the first time to depend on the X-ray dose rate. The maximum turnover frequency was measured at 1 × 10-4 s-1 Gy-1. We call this process chemical enhancement, which is defined as the increased yield of a chemical reaction due to the chemical properties of the added materials. The chemical enhancement described here is believed to be ubiquitous and may significantly alter the outcome of chemical reactions under X-ray irradiation with the assistance of nanomaterials.

The Gly-His-Lys (GHK) peptide and the Asp-Ala-His-Lys (DAHK) sequences are naturally occurring high-affinity copper(II) chelators found in the blood plasma and are hence of biological interest. A structural study of the copper complexes of these peptides was conducted in the solid state and in solution by determining their X-ray structures, and by using a large range of spectroscopies, including EPR and HYSCORE (hyperfine sub-level correlation), X-ray absorption and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The results indicate that the structures of [CuII(DAHK)] in the solid state and in solution are similar and confirm the equatorial coordination sphere of NH2, two amidyl N and one imidazole N. Additionally, a water molecule is bound apically to CuII as revealed by the X-ray structure. As reported previously in the literature, [CuII(GHK)], which exhibits a dimeric structure in the solid state, forms a monomeric complex in solution with three nitrogen ligands: NH2, amidyl and imidazole. The fourth equatorial site is occupied by a labile oxygen atom from a carboxylate ligand in the solid state. We probe that fourth position and study ternary complexes of [CuII(GHK)] with glycine or histidine. The CuII exchange reaction between different DAHK peptides is very slow, in contrast to [CuII(GHK)], in which the fast exchange was attributed to the presence of a [CuII(GHK)2] complex. The redox properties of [CuII(GHK)] and [CuII(DAHK)] were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and by measuring the ascorbate oxidation in the presence of molecular oxygen. The measurements indicate that both Cu II complexes are inert under moderate redox potentials. In contrast to [CuII(DAHK)], [CuII(GHK)] could be reduced to Cu I around -0.62 V (versus AgCl/Ag) with subsequent release of the Cu ion. These complete analyses of structure and redox activity of those complexes gave new insights with biological impact and can serve as models for other more complicated CuII-peptide interactions.

Three copper(ii) coordination compounds have been prepared from three different 2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine-based ligands, which have been selected to investigate the potential role of supramolecular interactions on the DNA-interacting and cytotoxicity properties of the corresponding metal complexes. Hence, the ligands 4′-((naphthalen-2-yl)methoxy)-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine (Naphtpy) and 4′-((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methoxy)-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine (Bimztpy) have been synthesized from commercially-available 4′-chloro-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine (Cltpy), and their copper(ii) complexes have been obtained by reaction with copper(ii) nitrate. The DNA-interacting abilities of the corresponding compounds [Cu(Cltpy)(H2O)(NO3)2] (1), [Cu(naphtpy)(NO3)(H2O)](NO3)(MeOH) (2) and [Cu(bimztpy)(NO3)(H2O)](NO3) (3) have been investigated using different techniques, and cytotoxicity assays with several cancer cell lines have revealed interesting features, viz. the more efficient complex is 2, which although it does not act as a DNA cleaver, displays the most effective DNA-interacting and cytotoxic properties, compared to 1 and 3.
Unique pH-Sensitive RNA Binder for Ratiometric Visualization of Cell Apoptosis

Fluorescent probes for monitoring cell apoptosis are powerful tools in biological and pathological research. However, ratiometric probes for in situ and real-time visualization of apoptosis with high accuracy are still deficient, which limits the studies relative to cell apoptosis. In this work, a pH-sensitive and positively charged RNA binder was designed and synthesized for the first time for the ratiometric visualization of cell apoptosis. In healthy cells, the probe targets mitochondria with basic matrixes and high membrane potential and displays intense emission in the blue and red channels. During apoptosis, the probe is released from mitochondria, binds to basophilic RNA, and shows emission in only the red channel. Consequently, cell apoptosis caused by drug treatment could be efficiently and clearly monitored in a ratiometric manner. The probe is expected to facilitate the study of cell apoptosis and relative areas.

Mitochondria is the main organelle for the production of reactive sulfur species (RSS), such as homocysteine (Hcy), cysteine (Cys), glutathione (GSH) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). These compounds participate in a large number of physiological processes and play an extremely important role in maintaining the balance of life systems. Abnormal concentration and metabolism are closely related to many diseases. Due to their similarities in chemical properties, it is challenging to develop a single fluorescent probe to distinguish them simultaneously. Here, we synthesized the probe PI-CO[sbnd]NBD with three fluorophores, NBD-Cl and benzopyranate as the reaction sites of GSH/Cys/Hcy and SO2, respectively. Three biothiols all could cleavage ether bond to release benzopyrylium and coumarin moiety, which emitted red and blue fluorescence, but Cys/Hcy also could do intramolecular rearrangement after nucleophilic substitution, resulting in yellow fluorescence. Thus the probe can distinguish Cys/Hcy and GSH. Subsequently, only SO2 could quench red fluorescence by adding C[dbnd]C of benzopyrylium. The probe also could localize well in mitochondria by oxonium ion for all kinds of cells. The probe not only could detect above sulfur-containing active substances of intracellular and extracellular but also monitor the level of them under oxidative stress and apoptosis process in living cells and zebrafish.

A novel coumarin chemosensor, 7-hydroxy-2-oxo-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)chromene-3-carboxamide (Probe 1), demonstrated significant selectivity towards Fe3+ ions. Probe 1 exhibited high fluorescence emission profile at 447?nm, excellent selectivity towards Fe3+ over other biologically important metal ions (Al3+, Ba2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Hg2+, Pb2+ and Sn2+). Interestingly, there was ~?30-fold decrease in fluorescence intensity upon Fe3+ binding. The limit of detection of Fe3+ was found to be 0.76?μM (~?40?ppb). Probe 1 also exhibited high potential as an intracellular chemosensor for Fe3+.

Paragraph 0036-0040, (2021/06/13)
The invention provides a benzopyranic acid ester derivative as well as a synthesis method and application thereof; the Chinese name of the derivative is 7-(diethylamino)-2-(4-(4-(7-((7-nitrobenzo[c][1,2,5]oxadiazol-4-yl)oxy)-2-oxy-2-H-chromene-3-carbonyl)piperazin-1-yl)phenyl)salt, and the derivative is named as PI-LS2. According to the invention, PI-LS2 is taken as a fluorescent probe, so that sulfide-containing compounds can be detected in a three-channel distinguishing manner. Specifically, based on the probe PI-LS2, sulfide is quantitatively distinguished and detected in a PBS buffer solution (pH=7.4, containing 20% of CH3CN, v/v) through an ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometer and a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The method can be used for carrying out special imaging on mitochondria of living cells and mercaptan and SO2 of zebra fish. In addition, the probe is successfully applied to monitoring oxidative stress and apoptosis processes of the living cells and the zebra fish.
