Responsive and reactive terbium complexes with an azaxanthone sensitiser and one naphthyl group: applications in ratiometric oxygen sensing in vitro and in regioselective cell killing.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A terbium complex has been designed that may be used to sensitise formation of singlet oxygen (phi(em) 12%), allowing the creation of a ratiometric sensory system for pO(2) (versus the insensitive Eu analogue) and the definition of a reactive probe that can be used to cause local damage to cells loaded with the complex and exposed to laser excitation.

Engineering emissive europium and terbium complexes for molecular imaging and sensing.
Emissive f-block coordination complexes constitute an important class of optical probes, with applications ranging from sensing of bioactive species, high throughput assays and screening protocols in vitro, to time-resolved imaging studies in cellulo or in vivo. The key chemistry issues to be addressed in complex design and characterisation are defined, with an emphasis on the use of emissive e...
متن کاملStudies on Genotoxic Effects of Mobile Phone Radiation on A375 Cells
Introduction: Radiation from cell phones has been associated with an increased risk of cancer. The literature has reported evidence of certain biological effects resulting from exposure to various wavelengths, doses, and intensities of radiofrequency radiation. The present study aimed to evaluate the possible adverse effects of radiation from a GSM mobile phone operating at 900 MHz on human mel...

Electron-rich aza-aromatic compounds such as indoles is structures of particular interest and importancein organic chemistry. A useful procedure for the preparation of new 3-sulfenyl indole derivatives using S-alkyl or S-arylthiophthalimides as sulfenylating agents and poly(N, N′-dibromo-N-ethyl-naphthyl-2,7-disulfonamide) as novel catalyst is described. The method represents an efficient prepa...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species generation and use of antioxidants during in vitro maturation of oocytes: a Review
In vitro maturation (IVM) is emerging as a popular technology at the forefront of fertility treatment and preservation. However, standard in vitro culture conditions usually increase reactive oxygen species (ROS), which have been implicated as one of the major causes for reduced embryonic developmental competence. It is well-known that higher than physiological levels of ROS triggers granulosa ...
