This study for the first time reports the design and application of a novel type of selective fluorescent substrate NESF for cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) based on sulfoxidation reaction. NESF has been successfully applied for imaging endogenous CYP3A4 in living cells and for high-throughput screening of CYP3A4 inhibitors.

The dynamic monitoring of cell death processes remains a significant challenge due to the scarcity of highly sensitive molecular tools. In this study, two hemicyanine-based probes (5a-5b) with D-π-A structures were developed for organelle-specific viscosity monitoring. Both probes exhibited correlation with the Förster-Hoffmann viscosity-dependent relationship (R > 0.

The -di(2-pyridyl)arenes, featuring a unique structure, hold significant promise for applications in fluorescent probes, synthetic nanoparticle stabilizers, and chemical synthesis. The mechanism of Ru-catalyzed decarboxylation and heteroarylation reactions of aryl carboxylic acids to access -dipyridylarenes was elucidated using DFT calculations, which involved C-H bond activation, oxidative addition, reductive elimination, and decarboxylation processes to form -di(2-pyridyl)arenes. The rate-determining step of the reaction is the second reductive elimination step with an energy barrier of 27.

The transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)4 is a potential target for autoimmune diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and diabetes mellitus. p-Biphenyl phosphate is reported as an inhibitor of the STAT4 Src homology 2 domain, and it is developed to the phosphonate-based inhibitor Stafori-1. Herein, structure-activity relationships of p-biaryl phosphates against STAT4 and their selectivity profiles against other STAT proteins are reported.

This work presents the development of a highly sensitive, selective, and efficient aptamer-based fluorescent sensor for detecting cortisol in human urine. Carbon quantum dots-nucleic acid aptamer (CQDs-Apt) synthesized with excellent photoluminescent properties and stability, were selected as the fluorescent probe. In the presence of MoS-NSs, CQDs-Apt adsorbed onto the surface of MoS-NSs via electrostatic and π-π interactions, leading to strong and rapid fluorescence quenching due to static quenching mechanism between them.

Local pH variations play a pivotal role in numerous critical biological processes. However, achieving the tunability and selectivity of pH detection remains a challenge. Here, we present a DNA-based strategy that enables programmable and selective pH responses, which is termed shadow-strand hybridization-actuated displacement engineering (SHADE).
