Quantification of nanoparticle endocytosis based on double fluorescent pH-sensitive nanoparticles.
Amorphous silica is a particularly interesting material because of its inertness and chemical stability. Silica nanoparticles have been recently developed for biomedical purposes but their innocuousness must be carefully investigated before clinical use. The relationship between nanoparticles physicochemical features, their uptake by cells and their biological activity represents a crucial issu...
متن کاملpH-Responsive quantum dots (RQDs) that combine a fluorescent nanoparticle with a pH-sensitive dye.
A quantum dot conjugated to a dye through an experimentally simple process of self-assembly exhibits an enhanced emission when the dye is attached, and this effect is pH-sensitive.
متن کاملpHuji, a pH-sensitive red fluorescent protein for imaging of exo- and endocytosis
Fluorescent proteins with pH-sensitive fluorescence are valuable tools for the imaging of exocytosis and endocytosis. The Aequorea green fluorescent protein mutant superecliptic pHluorin (SEP) is particularly well suited to these applications. Here we describe pHuji, a red fluorescent protein with a pH sensitivity that approaches that of SEP, making it amenable for detection of single exocytosi...
متن کاملStrategies for Developing pH Sensitive Fluorescent Probes
Many physiological processes function efficiently within a well-controlled pH range. Higher acidity level has been implicated with a number of systemic pathologies. The potential of pH sensitive fluorescent probes for reporting on biological environments has been widely utilized in a variety of cell studies and has been recently recognized as a powerful technique for in vivo imaging of diseases...
