Abstract
Down syndrome (DS) is a genetic condition where the person is born with an extra chromosome 21. DS is associated with accelerated aging; people with DS are prone to age-related neurological conditions including an early-onset Alzheimer's disease. Using the Dp(17)3Yey/ + mice, which overexpresses a portion of mouse chromosome 17, which encodes for the transsulfuration enzyme cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), we investigated the functional role of the CBS/hydrogen sulfide (H2S) pathway in the pathogenesis of neurobehavioral dysfunction in DS. The data demonstrate that CBS is higher in the brain of the DS mice than in the brain of wild-type mice, with primary localization in astrocytes. DS mice exhibited impaired recognition memory and spatial learning, loss of synaptosomal function, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and autophagy. Treatment of mice with aminooxyacetate, a prototypical CBS inhibitor, improved neurobehavioral function, reduced the degree of reactive gliosis in the DS brain, increased the ability of the synaptosomes to generate ATP, and reduced endoplasmic reticulum stress. H2S levels in the brain of DS mice were higher than in wild-type mice, but, unexpectedly, protein persulfidation was decreased. Many of the above alterations were more pronounced in the female DS mice. There was a significant dysregulation of metabolism in the brain of DS mice, which affected amino acid, carbohydrate, lipid, endocannabinoid, and nucleotide metabolites; some of these alterations were reversed by treatment of the mice with the CBS inhibitor. Thus, the CBS/H2S pathway contributes to the pathogenesis of neurological dysfunction in DS in the current animal model.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is implicated in numerous physiological and pathological processes in living organisms. Abnormal levels of H2S can result in various physiological disorders, highlighting the crucial need for effective identification and detection of H2S at the organellar level. Although numerous H2S fluorescent probes targeting organelles have been reported, a comprehensive review of these probes is required. This review focuses on the strategic selection of organelle-targeting groups and recognition sites for H2S fluorescent probes. This review examines H2S fluorescent probes that can specifically target lysosomes, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lipid droplets. These fluorescent probes have been meticulously classified and summarized based on their distinct targets, emphasizing their chemical structure, reaction mechanisms, and biological applications. We carefully designed fluorescent probes to efficiently enhance their ability to recognize target substances and exhibit significant fluorescence variations. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges inherent in the development of fluorescent probes and outline potential future directions for this exciting field.

Abstract
Imidazole is a five-membered heterocyclic ring containing three carbon atoms, two nitrogen atoms, and two double bonds. Among two nitrogen atoms, one of which carries with a hydrogen atom is a pyrrole-type nitrogen atom, another is a pyridine type nitrogen atom. Hence, the imidazole ring belongs to the π electron-rich aromatic ring and can accept strong suction to the electronic group. Moreover, the nitrogen atom of the imidazole ring is coordinated with metal ions to form metal-organic frameworks. In recent years, because of imidazole compounds' unique optical properties, their applications have attracted more and more attention in optical analysis. Thus, this review has summarized the synthesis, characterization, and application with emphasis on the research progress of imidazole compounds in optical analysis, including fluorescence probe, colorimetric probe, electrochemiluminescence sensor, fiber optical sensor, surface plasmon resonance, etc. This paper will suggest the direction for the development of imidazole-containing sensors with high sensitivity and selectivity.

[PMID: 39199129 PMCID: PMC11351139 DOI: 10.3390/antiox13080883] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2024] [Revised: 07/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Redox dysregulation, an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, is crucial in the pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative diseases. Within this context, the "redoxome" encompasses the network of redox molecules collaborating to maintain cellular redox balance and signaling. Among these, cysteine-sensitive proteins are fundamental for this homeostasis. Due to their reactive thiol groups, cysteine (Cys) residues are particularly susceptible to oxidative post-translational modifications (PTMs) induced by free radicals (reactive oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur species) which profoundly affect protein functions. Cys-PTMs, forming what is referred to as "cysteinet" in the redox proteome, are essential for redox signaling in both physiological and pathological conditions, including neurodegeneration. Such modifications significantly influence protein misfolding and aggregation, key hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and notably, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This review aims to explore the complex landscape of cysteine PTMs in the cellular redox environment, elucidating their impact on neurodegeneration at protein level. By investigating specific cysteine-sensitive proteins and the regulatory networks involved, particular emphasis is placed on the link between redox dysregulation and ALS, highlighting this pathology as a prime example of a neurodegenerative disease wherein such redox dysregulation is a distinct hallmark.

Abstract
Leukemias are cancers of the blood-forming system, representing a significant challenge in medical science. The development of leukemia cells involves substantial disturbances within the cellular machinery, offering hope in the search for effective selective treatments that could improve the 5-year survival rate. Consequently, the pathophysiological processes within leukemia cells are the focus of critical research. Enzymes such as cystathionine beta-synthase and sulfurtransferases like thiosulfate sulfurtransferase, 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase, and cystathionine gamma-lyase play a vital role in cellular sulfur metabolism. These enzymes are essential to maintaining cellular homeostasis, providing robust antioxidant defenses, and supporting cell division. Numerous studies have demonstrated that cancerous processes can alter the expression and activity of these enzymes, uncovering potential vulnerabilities or molecular targets for cancer therapy. Recent laboratory research has indicated that certain leukemia cell lines may exhibit significant changes in the expression patterns of these enzymes. Analysis of the scientific literature and online datasets has confirmed variations in sulfur enzyme function in specific leukemic cell lines compared to normal leukocytes. This comprehensive review collects and analyzes available information on sulfur enzymes in normal and leukemic cell lines, providing valuable insights and identifying new research pathways in this field.

Abstract
Herein we developed a cascade detection mode for the detection of HS- and ClO- by the novel probe NM-Cl bearing a conjugating naphthalene-dicyanoisophorone unit. The probe displayed sensitive and remarkable fluorescent enhancement in response to HS-, but not to other analytes. The mixture of probe and HS- constructed a specific sensing system for ClO- by fluorescent quenching response. The mechanism studies indicated that the successive reacting of HS- substitution Cl atom in probe and then addition of ClO- facilitation a thiofuran ring-forming induced differentiated fluorescence emission. This study provides a novel mechanism for the detection of HS- and ClO-, the imaging of cell and living animal further indicating the good application prospects of the probe in biosensing and bioimaging.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gas with a toxic odor that plays an irreplaceable role in physiological activities within the mammalian body. Therefore, it is important to do the distribution and quantitative detection of H2S in mammalian cells. In this paper, a fluorescence probe (EDPH) based on purine scaffold was designed and synthesized with high sensitivity and good selectivity. H2S induced ether bond breakage in EDPH, resulting in a significant redshift of the absorption band (from 370 nm to 500 nm) with a Stokes shift of 130 nm. After the addition of H2S, the fluorescence intensity of EDPH showed a good linear correlation with the concentration of H2S, which enabled the quantitative detection of H2S with a low limit of detection (41 nM). Finally, the EDPH was applied to the cellular Hele, and the probe has good cellularity imaging capability for the detection of H2S in living systems.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) is a noxious, potentially poisonous, but necessary gas produced from sulfur metabolism in humans. In Down Syndrome (DS), the production of H2 S is elevated and associated with degraded mitochondrial function. Therefore, removing H2 S from the body as a stable oxide could be an approach to reducing the deleterious effects of H2 S in DS. In this report we describe the catalytic oxidation of hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) to polysulfides (HS2+n - ) and thiosulfate (S2 O3 2- ) by poly(ethylene glycol) hydrophilic carbon clusters (PEG-HCCs) and poly(ethylene glycol) oxidized activated charcoal (PEG-OACs), examples of oxidized carbon nanozymes (OCNs). We show that OCNs oxidize H2 S to polysulfides and S2 O3 2- in a dose-dependent manner. The reaction is dependent on O2 and the presence of quinone groups on the OCNs. In DS donor lymphocytes we found that OCNs increased polysulfide production, proliferation, and afforded protection against additional toxic levels of H2 S compared to untreated DS lymphocytes. Finally, in Dp16 and Ts65DN murine models of DS, we found that OCNs restored osteoclast differentiation. This new action suggests potential facile translation into the clinic for conditions involving excess H2 S exemplified by DS.

Sulfides possess either high toxicity or play crucial physiological role such as gas transmitter dependent upon dosage, hence the significant for their rapid sensitive and selective concentration determination. Herein, a machine learning enhanced ratiometric fluorescence sensor was engineered for sulfide determination by incorporating the nanometal-organic framework (UiO-66-NH2) along with protoporphyrin IX (Ppix). The blue fluorescence at 431 nm originated from the moiety of UiO-66-NH2 by 365 nm excitation serves as an internal calibration reference signal, while the red fluorescence at 629 nm from the moiety of Ppix serves as the analytical signal, and the intensity is correlated to the amount of sulfides. The fluorescence color of the sensor gradually varies from blue to red upon sequential addition of copper and sulfide ions, resulting in RGB (Red, Green, Blue) feature values for corresponding sulfide concentrations, which facilities the advanced data processing techniques using machine learning algorithms. On the basis of fluorescence image fingerprint extraction and machine learning algorithms, an online data analysis model was developed to improve the precision and accuracy of sulfide determination. The established model employed Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and was subjected to rigorous cross-validation to ensure its robustness. By analyzing the correlation between RGB feature values and sulfide concentrations, the study highlighted a significant positive relationship between the red feature values and sulfide concentrations. The application of machine learning techniques on the ratiometric fluorescence signal of the UiO-66-NH2/Ppix probe demonstrated its potential for intelligent quantitative determination of sulfides, offering a valuable and efficient tool for pollution detection and real-time rapid environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a significant actor in the virulence and pathogenicity of fungi. The analysis of endogenous H2S in fungi benefits the prevention and treatment of pathogenic infections. Herein, a H2S-activated turn-on fluorescent probe named DDX-DNP was developed for the sensitive and selective detection of H2S. Using DDX-DNP, the ability of several oral fungi strains to produce H2S was identified, which was also validated using a typical chromogenic medium. In addition, DDX-DNP was successfully used for the visual sensing of endogenous H2S in fungal cells via microscope, flow cytometry, and colony imaging, along with a specific validation with the co-incubation of H2S production inhibitors in living cells. Above all, DDX-DNP could be used for H2S detection, the fluorescent imaging of fungi, and even the identification of related fungi.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and polysulfides (H2Sn, n ≥ 2) produced by enzymes play a role as signalling molecules regulating neurotransmission, vascular tone, cytoprotection, inflammation, oxygen sensing, and energy formation. H2Sn, which have additional sulfur atoms to H2S, and other S-sulfurated molecules such as cysteine persulfide and S-sulfurated cysteine residues of proteins, are produced by enzymes including 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST). H2Sn are also generated by the chemical interaction of H2S with NO, or to a lesser extent with H2O2. S-sulfuration (S-sulfhydration) has been proposed as a mode of action of H2S and H2Sn to regulate the activity of target molecules. Recently, we found that H2S/H2S2 regulate the release of neurotransmitters, such as GABA, glutamate, and D-serine, a co-agonist of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. H2S facilitates the induction of hippocampal long-term potentiation, a synaptic model of memory formation, by enhancing the activity of NMDA receptors, while H2S2 achieves this by activating transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channels in astrocytes, potentially leading to the activation of nearby neurons. The recent findings show the other aspects of TRPA1 channels-that is, the regulation of the levels of sulfur-containing molecules and their metabolizing enzymes. Disturbance of the signalling by H2S/H2Sn has been demonstrated to be involved in various diseases, including cognitive and psychiatric diseases. The physiological and pathophysiological roles of these molecules will be discussed.

Abstract
Three gaseous molecules are widely accepted as important gasotransmitters in mammalian cells, namely NO, CO and H2S. Due to the pharmacological effects observed in preclinical studies, these three gasotransmitters represent promising drug candidates for clinical translation. Fluorescent probes of the gasotransmitters are also in high demand; however, the mechanisms of actions or the roles played by gasotransmitters under both physiological and pathological conditions remain to be answered. In order to bring these challenges to the attention of both chemists and biologists working in this field, we herein summarize the chemical strategies used for the design of both probes and prodrugs of these three gasotransmitters.

Abstract
Significance: Reactive sulfur species (RSS) have been recently recognized as redox molecules no less important than reactive oxygen species or reactive nitrogen species. They possess regulatory and protective properties and are involved in various metabolic processes, thereby contributing to the maintenance of human health. It has been documented that many disorders, including neurological, cardiovascular, and respiratory diseases, diabetes mellitus (DM), and cancer, are related to the disruption of RSS homeostasis. Recent Advances: There is still a growing interest in the role of RSS in human diseases. Since a decrease in hydrogen sulfide or other RSS has been reported in many disorders, safe and efficient RSS donors have been developed and tested under in vitro conditions or on animal models. Critical Issues: Cardiovascular diseases and DM are currently the most common chronic diseases worldwide due to stressful and unhealthy lifestyles. In addition, because of high prevalence and aging of the population, neurological disorders including Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease as well as respiratory diseases are a formidable challenge for health care systems. From this point of view, the knowledge of the role of RSS in these disorders and RSS modulation options are important and could be useful in therapeutic strategies. Future Directions: Improvement and standardization of analytical methods used for RSS estimation are crucial for the use of RSS as diagnostic biomarkers. Finding good, safe RSS donors applicable for therapeutic purposes could be useful as primary or adjunctive therapy in many common diseases. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 39, 1000-1023.

Abstract
H2S is one of the signal molecules in live organisms and a poisonous gas, which is closely related to our life. The traditional synthetic small molecular organic probes often have the disadvantages of low biocompatibility. In this paper, a fluorescent nanoprobe for detecting H2S in live organisms was constructed based on chitosan. The structure of CH-CN was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), XRD and scanning electron microscope (SEM). In the presence of Na2S, the fluorescence intensity at 560 nm was significantly enhanced, and showed high selectivity and sensitivity toward H2S. Based on the good fluorescence response of CH-CN, the probe was also successfully applied to H2S imaging in HepG2 cells and zebrafish. These experimental results indicate that the probe has lower cytotoxicity and excellent stability. The present research shows a typical example of construction of chitosan-based macromolecular fluorescent materials and their bio-imaging application.

Abstract
Various signal molecules participate in complex biological processes in mitochondria. However, most currently available probes have problems in elucidating the functions of these active species in mitochondria due to the inability to light up these probes exclusively at the desired mitochondrial location, thereby compromising the specificity and accuracy. In this study, we present an on-demand photoactivation approach to the molecular design of optimized probes for precise spatiotemporal identification of mitochondrial H2S fluctuations. The designed probe with native yellow fluorescence can monitor the process into mitochondria but maintains nonfluorescent response to H2S during cellular delivery, providing the accurate timing of accumulation in mitochondria. On-demand photoactivation exclusively at the desired mitochondrial location affords a significant aggregation-enhanced and emissive response to H2S with lighting up red fluorescence at 690 nm, which is the only way to get such an emissive phenomenon and greatly improves the specificity and accuracy of targeting mitochondrial H2S. By using this photocontrolled fluorescence responsiveness to H2S, precise spatiotemporal identification of mitochondrial H2S fluctuations is successfully performed. Our work could facilitate advances toward interrogating the physiological and pathological consequences of mitochondrial H2S in various biological events.

Abstract
Only a few probes are suited for highly acidic environments and sensitive to pH values below 4. Thus, finding a solution for detecting strong acidic (pH value below 2) conditions is still challenging. Herein, we constructed and created a pH-switched fluorescent probe based on pyrene and a heteroatom containing pyridine unit. When exposed to acidic environments (pH 2.0), the probe's fluorescence redshifted with distinct colour and fluorescence changes owing to protonation on the nitrogen atom containing pyridine moiety, which could be deprotonated by HS- selectively compared to other competing analytes. Pyr can detect HS- with a rapid response within 5 s and showed very good quantum yield under acidic environments. The sensing mechanism was confirmed by Density Functional Theory (DFT) studies using the B3LYP and 6-31G+ (d) basis sets. Furthermore, the probe was utilized to monitor HS- in actual water samples and identify H2S gas by a simple paper strip test.

Abstract
The gaseous neurotransmitter hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) exerts neuroprotective efficacy in the brain via post-translational modification of cysteine residues by sulfhydration, also known as persulfidation. This process is comparable in biological impact to phosphorylation and mediates a variety of signalling events. Unlike conventional neurotransmitters, H2 S cannot be stored in vesicles due to its gaseous nature. Instead, it is either locally synthesized or released from endogenous stores. Sulfhydration affords both specific and general neuroprotective effects and is critically diminished in several neurodegenerative disorders. Conversely, some forms of neurodegenerative disease are linked to excessive cellular H2 S. Here, we review the signalling roles of H2 S across the spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Down syndrome, traumatic brain injury, the ataxias, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, as well as neurodegeneration generally associated with ageing.

Abstract
Emerging evidence indicates that vascular stress is an important contributor to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and its metabolites (acid-labile (e.g., iron-sulfur clusters) and bound (e.g., per-, poly-) sulfides) have been shown to modulate both vascular and neuronal homeostasis. We recently reported that elevated plasma sulfides were associated with cognitive dysfunction and measures of microvascular disease in ADRD. Here we extend our previous work to show associations between elevated sulfides and magnetic resonance-based metrics of brain atrophy and white matter integrity. Elevated bound sulfides were associated with decreased grey matter volume, while increased acid labile sulfides were associated with decreased white matter integrity and greater ventricular volume. These findings are consistent with alterations in sulfide metabolism in ADRD which may represent maladaptive responses to oxidative stress.

Abstract
The development of effective methods for tracking Cu2+ and H2S in living organisms is urgently required due to their vital function in a variety of pathophysiological processes. In this work, a new fluorescent sensor BDF with excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) features for the successive detection of Cu2+ and H2S was constructed by introducing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetonitrile into the benzothiazole skeleton. BDF showed a fast, selective and sensitive fluorescence "turn off" response to Cu2+ in physiological media, and the situ-formed complex can serve as a fluorescence "turn on" sensor for highly selective detection of H2S through the Cu2+ displacement approach. In addition, the detection limits of BDF for Cu2+ and H2S were determined to be 0.05 and 1.95 μM, respectively. Encouraged by its favourable features, including strong red fluorescence from the AIE effect, large Stokes shift (285 nm), high anti-interference ability and good function at physiological pH as well as a low toxicity, BDF was successfully applied for the consequent imaging of Cu2+ and H2S in both living cells and zebrafish, making it an ideal candidate for detecting and imaging of Cu2+ and H2S in live systems.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays a substantial role as a messenger in the physiological and pathological processes of many diseases. Recently, the fluorescence probe of H2S based on organic dye has attracted great attention. However, the emission of many probes is in the UV-vis region (400-600 nm), so it has the disadvantages of shallow tissue penetration and more vulnerable to spontaneous fluorescence interference. Although several H2S probes have been developed that emit more than 650 nm, there is a complex structure difficult to synthesize or unstable in storage. Aimed at simply structural and easily synthesized H2S fluorescent probes with emission wavelength more than 650 nm, a novel near-infrared (NIR) probe (NIR-H2S) here was rationally designed with 4-(2-carboxyphenyl)-7-(diethylamino)-2-(4-hydroxystyryl)chromenylium (NIR-OH) as a fluorescent dye and 2,4-dinitrophenyl moiety as a recognition group. Addition of H2S, the "turn-on" NIR fluorescence response at 736 nm of NIR-H2S was displayed, accompanied by a visual colour change from purple to green when excited at 686 nm. As an easily acquisitive H2S probe, NIR-H2S has been successfully applied to cell imaging for H2S detection with the advantages such as long fluorescence emission, low toxicity, high sensitivity and strong selectivity.

Abstract
Biothiols and hydrogen sulfide, as critical sulfur-containing reactive substances, serve essential functions in various human pathological processes, making it challenging to simultaneously distinguish them due to their similar reactivity and structures (-SH). Here, we rationalized the development of a single-wavelength excitation near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence probe, FC-NBD, for distinguishing GSH/H2S and Cys/Hcy by separated fluorescence dual channels. In this probe, FC-NBD, composed of coumarin-benzopyrylium derivatives linked with nitro benzoxadiazole (NBD) via ether bonds, could quantitatively and selectively distinguish GSH/H2S and Cys/Hcy with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.199/0.177 μM and 0.106/0.076 μM, respectively. As expected, under single-wavelength excitation (470 nm), FC-NBD demonstrated distinctly separable green and NIR fluorescence emissions towards Cys/Hcy at 550 and 660 nm, but only exhibited a noticeable NIR fluorescence emission towards GSH/H2S at 660 nm. Moreover, FC-NBD could simultaneously visualize and discriminate GSH/H2S and Cys/Hcy in living cells as well as zebrafish through green and NIR channels at a single excitation wavelength.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), as an important endogenous signaling molecule, plays a vital role in many physiological processes. The abnormal behaviors of hydrogen sulfide in organisms may lead to various pathophysiological processes. Monitoring the changes in hydrogen sulfide is helpful for pre-warning and treating these pathophysiological processes. Fluorescence imaging techniques can be used to observe changes in the concentration of analytes in organisms in real-time. Therefore, employing fluorescent probes imaging to investigate the behaviors of hydrogen sulfide in pathophysiological processes is vital. This paper reviews the design strategy and sensing mechanisms of hydrogen sulfide-based fluorescent probes, focusing on imaging applications in various pathophysiological processes, including neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, apoptosis, oxidative stress, organ injury, and diabetes. This review not only demonstrates the specific value of hydrogen sulfide fluorescent probes in preclinical studies but also illuminates the potential application in clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
Colorimetric and fluorescent probes have received a lot of attention for detecting lethal analytes in realistic systems and in living things. Herein, a dual-approachable Benzo-hemicyaninebased red-emitting fluorescent probe PBiSMe, for distinct and instantaneous detection of CN- and HS- was synthesized. The PBiSMe emitted red fluorescence (570 nm) can switch to turn-off (570 nm) and blue fluorescence (465 nm) in response to CN- and HS-, respectively. Other nucleophilic reagents, such as reactive sulfur species (RSS) and anions, have no contact or interference with the probe; instead, a unique approach is undertaken to exclusively interact with CN- and HS- over a wide pH range. The measured detection limits for CN- (0.43 μM) and HS- (0.22 μM) ions are lower than the World Health Organization's (WHO) recommended levels in drinking water. We confirmed 1:1 stoichiometry ratio using Job's plot and observed good quantum yield for both analytes. The probe-coated paper strips were used to detect the H2S gas produced by food spoilage (such as eggs, raw meat, and fish) via an eye-catching visual response. Moreover, fluorescence bioimaging studies of living cells was done to confirm the probe's potential by monitoring the presence of CN- and HS- in a living system.

Abstract
HClO and H2S, as two kinds of crucial small biomolecules, are endowed various roles in biological organisms. The redox balance between HClO and H2S is closely related to the physiological and pathological processes. Thus, it is significant to monitor the redox process between HClO and H2S. Inspired by the advantages of ratiometric fluorescent probes, we firstly developed a reversible ratiometric fluorescent probe (BT-Se) for HClO and H2S via combination of phenyl selenide as the response group and 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole dye as the fluorophore. The proposed probe BT-Se could detect HClO with well-separated dual emission (110 nm), fast response, good selectivity and sensitivity owing to the oxidation reaction of the Se atom induced by HClO. Moreover, only H2S could effectively recover the fluorescence of the detection system to the original state via H2S induced-reduction of selenoxide. Cell imaging studies demonstrated that the probe BT-Se was capable of ratiometric monitoring the changes of intracellular HClO/H2S, which suggested that it has great potential for researching the biological functions of HClO and H2S.

Abstract
Down syndrome (DS), the most frequent chromosomic aberration, results from the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21. The identification of genes which overexpression contributes to intellectual disability (ID) in DS is important to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms involved and develop new pharmacological therapies. In particular, gene dosage of Dual specificity tyrosine phosphorylation Regulated Kinase 1A (DYRK1A) and of Cystathionine beta synthase (CBS) are crucial for cognitive function. As these two enzymes have lately been the main targets for therapeutic research on ID, we sought to decipher the genetic relationship between them. We also used a combination of genetic and drug screenings using a cellular model overexpressing CYS4, the homolog of CBS in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to get further insights into the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of CBS activity. We showed that overexpression of YAK1, the homolog of DYRK1A in yeast, increased CYS4 activity whereas GSK3β was identified as a genetic suppressor of CBS. In addition, analysis of the signaling pathways targeted by the drugs identified through the yeast-based pharmacological screening, and confirmed using human HepG2 cells, emphasized the importance of Akt/GSK3β and NF-κB pathways into the regulation of CBS activity and expression. Taken together, these data provide further understanding into the regulation of CBS and in particular into the genetic relationship between DYRK1A and CBS through the Akt/GSK3β and NF-κB pathways, which should help develop more effective therapies to reduce cognitive deficits in people with DS.

Abstract
Surface engineering of nanozymes has been recognized as a potent strategy to improve their catalytic activity and specificity. We synthesized polydopamine-coated Co3O4 nanoparticles (PDA@Co3O4 NPs) through simple dopamine-induced self-assembly and demonstrated that these NPs exhibit catalase-like activity by decomposing H2O2 into oxygen and water. The activity of PDA@Co3O4 NPs was approximately fourfold higher than that of Co3O4 NPs without PDA, possibly due to the additional radical scavenging activity of the PDA shell. In addition, PDA@Co3O4 NPs were more stable than natural catalase under a wide range of pH, temperature, and storage time conditions. Upon the addition of a sample containing sulfide ion, the activity of PDA@Co3O4 NPs was significantly inhibited, possibly because of increased mass transfer limitations via the absorption of the sulfide ion on the PDA@Co3O4 NP surface, along with NP aggregation which reduced their surface area. The reduced catalase-like activity was used to determine the levels of sulfide ion by measuring the increased fluorescence of the oxidized terephthalic acid, generated from the added H2O2. Using this strategy, the target sulfide ion was sensitively determined to a lower limit of 4.3 µM and dynamic linear range of up to 200 µM. The fluorescence-based sulfide ion assay based on PDA@Co3O4 NPs was highly precise when applied to real tap water samples, validating its potential for conveniently monitoring toxic elements in the environment.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important signal molecule involved in intracellular activities. To understand the role of H2S in cellular physiological and pathological process, the development of sensitive and selective methods, especially biocompatible assays, for efficient monitoring the level of H2S is necessary. Herein, we modified novel rare earth element europium (EU) based fluorescent nanospheres with azide (-N3) based sensor to construct an ingenious ratiometric fluorescent nanoprobe EU-N3. This nanoprobe showed excellent water solubility and high biocompatibility for intracellular H2S accurate detection. Nanoprobe EU-N3 had two obvious emission peaks, the green fluorescence peak at 540 nm increased according to the increasing of H2S concentration and the red fluorescence peak at 616 nm was stable as ratiometric reference. The fluorescence intensity ratio (I540/I616) displayed good linear response (R = 0.99136) in H2S range of 0.5 ∼ 30 μM. The analytes response assay demonstrated that the nanoprobe EU-N3 possessed a better specificity for H2S, compared with other 9 anions and 3 cations. The cell viability assay indicated the nanoprobe EU-N3 had an excellent biocompatibility. The cell imaging showed that the proposed nanoprobe could be applied for detecting the intracellular H2S changes accurately in live cells. Such nanoprobe provided a safe and accurate strategy for intracellular H2S detection, which is helpful for the real-time H2S visualization in the live cell activities.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as small molecular signal messenger plays key functions in numerous biological processes. The imaging detection of intracellular hydrogen sulfide is of great significance. In this work, a ratiometric fluorescent probe BH based on an asymmetric BODIPY dye for detection of H2S was designed and synthesized. After the interaction with hydrogen sulfide, probe display colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescence response, with its maximum emission fluorescence wavelength red-shifted from 542 nm to 594 nm, which is attributed to the sequential nucleophilic reaction of H2S leading to enhanced molecular conjugation after ring formation of the BODIPY skeleton. A special response mechanism has been fully investigated by NMR titration and MS, so that the probe has excellent detection selectivity. Furthermore, probe BH has low cytotoxicity and fluorescence imaging experiments indicate that it can be used to monitor hydrogen sulfide in living cells.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a vital endogenous gas signal molecule undertaking numerous physiological functions such as biological regulation and cytoprotection.

Interestingly, the Cu2+-based Ni-Fe LDH (Ni-Fe-Cu LDH) can act as the Cu2+ source to react with H2S, resulting in the in-situ generation of CuxS on Ni-Fe-Cu LDH surfaces. Because of the EC signal and intrinsic near-infrared (NIR) PT conversion ability of CuxS under 808 nm laser irradiation, the obtained CuxS@Ni-Fe-Cu LDH is applied to stimulate EC signal and temperature readout. By this means, a dual-readout signal mode is established for H2S detection. Under the optimum conditions, this combination of EC and PT methods displays a wide linear range for H2S to 0.1 μM-90 μM and 50 μM-400 μM, respectively, with a low detection limit of 0.09 μM. In addition, the practicality of Ni-Fe-Cu LDH is verified by determination of endogenous H2S in living cells. This work not only provides a promising application for H2S diagnosis but also exhibits the new characteristic of Ni-Fe-Cu LDH nanomaterials as signal transduction tags.

Abstract
A probe with an isothiocyanate group was synthesized and evaluated for its H2S sensing ability. Upon addition of H2S, the probe exhibited ratiometric properties during absorption with a red-shift. The probe exhibited fluorescent off-on responses towards H2S via the ESIPT process, due to the conversion of isocyanate into amine. UV-vis, fluorescence, and 1H NMR spectroscopic analyses were performed to investigate the sensing mechanism. The probe has a large Stokes shift, short response time, and low detection limit. It can be used to estimate H2S levels within the range of 0-36 nM. The practical applicability of the probe was demonstrated using water samples and living cells.

Abstract
During biological detection, the toxicity caused by probes to living organisms is neglected. In this study, an analyte-compensated fluorescent probe (NP-SN3) was constructed for the detection of H2S. Through experiments with HepG2 cells and zebrafish embryos and larvae, the NP-SN3 probe showed no significant difference in imaging performance compared with the traditional probe (NP-N3) but exhibited lower detection-induced toxicity in the imaging of liver fibrosis in activated HSC-T6 cells. During the development of zebrafish embryos and continuous administration in rats, NP-SN3 showed a lower death rate, higher hatchability and lower malformation in zebrafish embryos and milder pathological symptoms in stained rat tissues.

Abstract
CBS encodes a pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyses the condensation of homocysteine and serine to form cystathionine. Due to its implication in some cancers and in the cognitive pathophysiology of Down syndrome, the identification of pharmacological inhibitors of this enzyme is urgently required. However, thus far, attempts to identify such molecules have only led to the identification of compounds with low potency and limited selectivity. We consequently developed an original, yeast-based screening method that identified three FDA-approved drugs of the 8-hydroxyquinoline family: clioquinol, chloroxine and nitroxoline. These molecules reduce CBS enzymatic activity in different cellular models, proving that the molecular mechanisms involved in yeast phenotypic rescue are conserved in mammalian cells. A combination of genetic and chemical biology approaches also revealed the importance of copper and zinc intracellular levels in the regulation of CBS enzymatic activity—copper promoting CBS activity and zinc inhibiting its activity. Taken together, these results indicate that our effective screening approach identified three new potent CBS inhibitors and provides new findings for the regulation of CBS activity, which is crucial to develop new therapies for CBS-related human disorders.

Abstract
As a common gaseous signaling molecule, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays a vital role in physiology and pathology. The development of fluorescent probes for detecting H2S has attracted widespread attention. However, most of the reported fluorescent probes with nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) as the recognition group have been widely used to simultaneously detect biothiols and H2S, instead of specifically detecting H2S. Herein, a novel NBD-based near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe named CX-N for the detection of H2S is synthesized. The selectivity of CX-N for H2S is significantly higher than that for biothiols and other potential interferences. After reacting with H2S, CX-N shows a significant increase in NIR fluorescence (75-fold), large Stokes shift (155 nm) and fast response (4 min). And the possible response mechanism of CX-N to H2S is given and confirmed by HPLC and HRMS. Based on the low cytotoxicity of CX-N, it has been used for H2S imaging in live cells and zebrafish. More importantly, CX-N has also been successfully applied for the real-time imaging of H2S in inflammatory and tumor mice based on its NIR emission, which provides a reliable platform for the specific recognition of H2S in complex biological systems.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been regarded as the third endogenous gas signaling molecule. The development of suitable tools for H2S detection in vitro and in vivo has always been a focus of research. In this work, three BODIPY-NBD dyads (o/m/p-BNP) were designed and synthesized using BODIPY and NBD as the fluorophore and quencher, respectively. The position of the NBD moiety in the probe showed different fluorescence quenching abilities. All probes showed highly selective to H2S. Probe o-BNP displayed the maximum fluorescence enhancement (c.a. 1300-fold) and the lowest detection limit (105 nM). Probe o-BNP can visualize the production of endogenous H2S in HeLa cells and zebrafish.

Abstract
Developing probes to simultaneously detect and discriminate biothiols is important, yet challenging. Activatable photoacoustic (PA) probes for discriminating biothiols in vivo are still lacking, and this hinders the diagnosis of thiol-related diseases. Herein we present the first PA and fluorescence dual-modality probe MB-NBD for discriminating different biothiol species. The probe has the advantages of both fluorescence imaging and PA imaging (high sensitivity and deep penetration) with distinct signal patterns toward hydrogen sulfide (H2S), cysteine/homocysteine (Cys/Hcy), and glutathione (GSH) treatment. The biothiol-activated product of MB-NBD exhibits enhancements in near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) at 690 nm and absorbance/PA at 664 nm upon fast reaction, allowing it to selectively detect biothiol species over other reactive species. On the other hand, MB-NBD displays characteristic absorbance enhancement at 547 nm toward H2S, rendering specific detection of H2S. In addition, the specific enhancements in absorbance/PA at 470 nm and fluorescence at 550 nm toward Cys/Hcy treatment endows the probe with the capability of selectively detecting Cys/Hcy. Furthermore, MB-NBD is able to discriminate Cys and GSH by fluorescent imaging in live-cell and ratiometric PA imaging in mice experiments. MB-NBD has been successfully used to diagnose tumors by dual-channel ratiometric PA imaging.

Engineered lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticles for biosensing and bioimaging application. Mikrochim Acta 2022; 189:109. [PMID: 35175435 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-022-05180-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Accepted: 01/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Various fluctuations of intracellular ions, biomolecules, and other conditions in the physiological environment play crucial roles in fundamental biological processes. These factors are of great importance for analysis in biomedical detection. Nevertheless, developments of the simple, rapid, and accurate proof for specific detection still encounter major challenges. Upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), which could absorb multiple low-energy near-infrared light (NIR) photon excitation and emits high-energy photons caused by anti-Stokes shift, show unique upconversion luminescence (UCL) properties, for example, sharp emission band, high physicochemical stability like near-zero photobleaching, photo blinking in biological tissues, and long luminescence lifetime. Furthermore, the NIR used for the light source to excite UCNPs enable lower photo-damage effect and deeper penetration of tissue, and in the meantime, it can avoid the auto-fluorescence and light scattering from biological tissue interference. Thus, the lanthanide-doped UCNP-based functional platform with controlled structure, crystalline phase, size, and multicolor emission has become an appropriate nanomaterial for bioapplications such as biosensing, bioimaging, drug release, and therapies. In this review, the recent progress about synthesis and biomedical applications of UCNPs related to sensing and bioimaging is summarized. Firstly, the different luminescence mechanisms of the upconversion process are presented. Secondly, four of the most common methods for synthesizing UCNPs are compared as well as the advantages and disadvantages of these synthetic routes. Meanwhile, the surface modification of lanthanide-doped UCNPs was introduced to pave the way for their biochemistry applications. Next, this review detailed the biological applications of lanthanide-doped UCNPs, particularly in bioimaging, including UCL and multi-modal imaging and biosensing (monitoring intracellular ions and biomolecules). Finally, the challenges and future perspectives in materials science and biomedical fields of UCNPs are concluded: the low quantum yield of the upconversion process should be considered when they are executed as imaging contrast agents. And the biosafety of lanthanide-doped UCNPs needs to be evaluated.

Overproduction of hydrogen sulfide, generated by cystathionine β-synthase, disrupts brain wave patterns and contributes to neurobehavioral dysfunction in a rat model of down syndrome. Redox Biol 2022; 51:102233.

Abstract
Using a novel rat model of Down syndrome (DS), the functional role of the cystathionine-β-synthase (CBS)/hydrogen sulfide (H2S) pathway was investigated on the pathogenesis of brain wave pattern alterations and neurobehavioral dysfunction. Increased expression of CBS and subsequent overproduction of H2S was observed in the brain of DS rats, with CBS primarily localizing to astrocytes and the vasculature. DS rats exhibited neurobehavioral defects, accompanied by a loss of gamma brain wave activity and a suppression of the expression of multiple pre- and postsynaptic proteins. Aminooxyacetate, a prototypical pharmacological inhibitor of CBS, increased the ability of the DS brain tissue to generate ATP in vitro and reversed the electrophysiological and neurobehavioral alterations in vivo. Thus, the CBS/H2S pathway contributes to the pathogenesis of neurological dysfunction in DS, most likely through dysregulation of cellular bioenergetics and gene expression.

Abstract
Globally, the environmental pollution is one of the major issues causing toxicity towards human and aquatic life. We have developed a facile and innovative sensing approach for detection of sulphide ions (S2-) present in the aqueous media using Ag0 decorated Cr2S3 NPs embedded on PVP matrix (Ag/Cr2S3-PVP). Based on the SPR phenomena, the detection of S2- ions was established. The nanohybrid was characterized using various techniques such as UV-vis spectrophotometer, High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM), Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction analysis(XRD), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The yellowish colour of Ag/Cr2S3-PVP nanohybrid turned to brown colour in presence of S2- ions. The selectivity and sensitivity of the prepared probe was studied against the other interfering metal ions. In addition, the effect of different concentration of S2- ions in the nanohybrid solution was investigated and the Limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 6.6 nM. The good linearity was found over the range of 10 nM to 100 μM with R2 value of 0.981. The paper strip based probe was developed for rapid onsite monitoring of S2- ions. The proposed method is found to be cost-effective, rapid, and simple. We have validated the practical applicability of the prepared probe for determining the concentration of S2- ions in real water samples.

Abstract
Two simple turn-on fluorescent probes, containing a benzothiazole and the 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl group, were designed for detecting H2S. Two probes exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity, which were applied to detect the H2S in real water samples. Probe P2 with a positive charge had better solubility than probe P1 in water; therefore, probe P2 was successfully applied to detect both the endogenous and exogenous H2S in lysosomes of living HeLa cells.

Abstract
Selective Detection of H 2 S in cellular system using fluorescent CPs/MOFs is of great scientific interest due to their outstanding aqueous stability, biocompatibility and real-time detection ability. Fabrication of such materials using complete biologically essential elements and applying them as an efficient biosensors is still quite challenging. In this context, we present two newly synthesized CPs containing biologically essential metal ion (Zn) and nitro/azido functional group on the framework to sense extracellular and intracellular H 2 S by reducing into respective amines. The CP- 1 containing the azide group acted as an efficient fluorencent turn-on probe with lowest detection limit (7.2 µM) and shortest response time (30 sec) among the Zn-based probes reported till date. Moreover, CP-1 exhibited green luminescence in live cells after imaging very low concentration of H 2 S, while the nitro analogue, CP-2, couldn't detect the target analyte due to it's framework disruption.
