A novel “Turn-On” fluorescent probe, quaternarized 4-pyridinyl-substituted BODIPY dye by incorporating a 5-nitrofuran moiety, was developed and applied for imaging the hypoxic status of tumor cells by the indirect detection of nitroreductase.
In this study, we designed a new selective turn on near-infrared fluorescence probe by conjugating (1-methyl-2-nitro-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol to DCPO with ether linkage for hypoxic tumor cell imaging.
