Acc Chem Res 2024; 57:1238-1253. [PMID: 38604701 PMCID: PMC11079973 DOI: 10.1021/acs.accounts.3c00794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
Cellular senescence can be defined as an irreversible stopping of cell proliferation that arises in response to various stress signals. Cellular senescence is involved in diverse physiological and pathological processes in different tissues, exerting effects on processes as differentiated as embryogenesis, tissue repair and remodeling, cancer, aging, and tissue fibrosis. In addition, the development of some pathologies, aging, cancer, and other age-related diseases has been related to senescent cell accumulation. Due to the complexity of the senescence phenotype, targeting senescent cells is not trivial, is challenging, and is especially relevant for in vivo detection in age-related diseases and tissue samples. Despite the elimination of senescent cells (senolysis) using specific drugs (senolytics) that have been shown to be effective in numerous preclinical disease models, the clinical translation is still limited due to the off-target effects of current senolytics and associated toxicities. Therefore, the development of new chemical strategies aimed at detecting and eliminating senescent cells for the prevention and selective treatment of senescence-associated diseases is of great interest. Such strategies not only will contribute to a deeper understanding of this rapidly evolving field but also will delineate and inspire new possibilities for future research.In this Account, we report our recent research in the development of new chemical approaches for the detection and elimination of senescent cells based on new probes, nanoparticles, and prodrugs. The designed systems take advantage of the over-representation in senescent cells of certain biomarkers such as β-galactosidase and lipofuscin. One- and two-photon probes, for higher tissue penetration, have been developed. Moreover, we also present a renal clearable fluorogenic probe for the in vivo detection of the β-galactosidase activity, allowing for correlation with the senescent burden in living animals. Moreover, as an alternative to molecular-based probes, we also developed nanoparticles for senescence detection. Besides, we describe advances in new therapeutic agents to selectively eradicate senescent cells using β-galactosidase activity-sensitive gated nanoparticles loaded with cytotoxic or senolytic agents or new prodrugs aiming to increase the selectivity and reduction of off-target toxicities of current drugs. Moreover, new advances therapies have been applied in vitro and in vivo. Studies with the probes, nanoparticles, and prodrugs have been applied in several in vitro and in vivo models of cancer, fibrosis, aging, and drug-induced cardiotoxicity in which senescence plays an important role. We discuss the benefits of these chemical strategies toward the development of more specific and sophisticated probes, nanoparticles, and prodrugs targeting senescent cells.

Abstract
Biomolecules are fundamental for various chemical and biological processes of living organisms. High-resolution in situ imaging of the dynamics and local distribution of biomolecules may facilitate better interpretation of diverse complex cell events in the biomedicine field. In different advanced imaging tools, fluorescence imaging-based activatable organic probes can be noninvasively and effortlessly internalized into cells and can be easily modified, which is essential for the in situ imaging of targets in living organisms. We here briefly summarize the existing general design strategies of activatable organic probes for retaining the fluorescence signal inside cells. We particularly describe the bioapplication of these probes for the in situ bioimaging. This review is expected to promote the development of new molecular tools for extending the application of these in situ imaging strategies to other biomolecules.

Abstract
A large variety of natural plants are widely produced and utilised because of their remarkable pharmacological effects. In this study, two phenolic glycosides were isolated for the first time from Vanilla pompona Schiede (Orchidaceae) from Kyushu, Japan: bis [4-(β-D - O-glucopyranosyloxy)-benzyl] (S)-2-isopropylmalate (1: ) and bis 4-[β-D-O-glucopyranosyloxy)-benzyl]-(2R,3S)-2-isopropyl tartrate (2: ). We have discovered that the crude extract of V. pompona leaves and stems and its two phenolic glycosides (compounds 1: - 2: ) are highly effective in reversing skin senescence. V. pompona and compounds 1: - 2: were found to promote the synthesis of collagen, hyaluronic acid, and elastin in skin fibroblasts in a normal skin cell model; in a replicative senescence model, V. pompona and compounds 1: - 2: significantly reduced the ageing phenotype in skin fibroblasts. These compounds also demonstrated a significant protective effect in a UV-induced photo-senescence model; the possible mechanisms of this effect were investigated in this study. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to develop V. pompona leaves and stems as new sources of bioactive compounds and to examine their therapeutic potential for skin senescence. The development potential of V. pompona leaves and stems for use in the cosmetics, cosmeceutical, and pharmaceutical industries remains to be investigated.

Galactosidase-catalyzed fluorescence amplification method (GAFAM): sensitive fluorescent immunohistochemistry using novel fluorogenic β-galactosidase substrates and its application in multiplex immunostaining. Histochem Cell Biol 2023; 159:233-246.

Abstract
Multiplex immunohistochemistry/multiplex immunofluorescence (mIHC/mIF) enables the simultaneous detection of multiple markers in a single tissue section by visualizing the markers in different colors. Currently, tyramide signal amplification (TSA) is the most commonly used method because it is heat resistant to multiplexing. SPiDER-βGal (6'-(diethylamino)-4'-(fluoromethyl)spiro[isobenzofuran-1(3H),9'-[9H]xanthen]-3'-yl β-D-galactopyranoside), a novel fluorogenic substrate of β-galactosidase (β-gal) was reported recently. Its properties are favorable for application in sensitive mIF based on quinone methide chemistry. Combining SPiDER-βGal with its related substrates, a novel, sensitive fluorescent IHC method for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) sections was developed, named the galactosidase-catalyzed fluorescence amplification method (GAFAM). Evaluation of GAFAM indicated the following characteristics: (1) the entire GAFAM procedure was complete within a few hours; (2) the optimal working concentration of the substrates was 20 μM; (3) the fluorescent product was heat resistant; (4) the GAFAM exhibited sensitivity comparable with that of TSA, which was higher than that of conventional IF; and (5) the GAFAM was applicable to mIF and multispectral imaging. GAFAM is expected to be applicable to IF (or mIF in combination with TSA), and is a promising tool for facilitating morphological research in various fields of life science.

Abstract
Probes allowing high-contrast discrimination of cancer cells and effective retention are powerful tools for the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer. However, conventional small-molecule probes often show limited performance in both aspects. Herein, we report an ingenious molecular engineering strategy for tuning the cellular uptake and retention of rhodamine dyes. Introduction of polar aminoethyl leads to the increased brightness and reduced cellular uptake of dyes, and this change can be reversed by amino acetylation. Moreover, these modifications allow cancer cells to take up more dyes than normal cells (16-fold) through active transport. Specifically, we further improve the signal contrast (56-fold) between cancer and normal cells by constructing activatable probes and confirm that the released fluorophore can remain in cancer cells with extended time, enabling long-term and specific tumor imaging.

Abstract
Water contamination has become increasingly a critical global environmental issue that threatens human and ecosystems’ health. Monitoring and risk assessment of toxic pollutants in water bodies is essential to identifying water pollution treatment needs. Compared with the traditional monitoring approaches, environmental biosensing via whole-cell bioreporters (WCBs) has exhibited excellent capabilities for detecting bioavailability of multiple pollutants by providing a fast, simple, versatile and economical way for environmental risk assessment. The performance of WCBs is determined by its elements of construction, such as host strain, regulatory and reporter genes, as well as experimental conditions. Previously, numerous studies have focused on the design and construction of WCB rather than improving the detection process and commercialization of this technology. For investigators working in the environmental field, WCB can be used to detect pollutants is more important than how they are constructed. This work provides a review of the development of WCBs and a brief introduction to genetic construction strategies and aims to summarize key studies on the application of WCB technology in detection of water contaminants, including organic pollutants and heavy metals. In addition, the current status of commercialization of WCBs is highlighted.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes are powerful tools for visualizing cellular and subcellular structures, their dynamics and cellular molecules in living cells and enable us to monitor cellular processes in a spatiotemporal manner within complex and crowded systems. In addition to popular fluorescent proteins, a wide variety of small-molecule dyes have been synthesized through close association with the interdisciplinary field of chemistry and biology, ranging from those suitable for labeling cellular compartments such as organelles to those for labeling intracellular biochemical and biophysical processes and signaling. In recent years, self-labeling technologies including the SNAP-tag system have allowed us to attach these dyes to cellular domains or specific proteins and are beginning to be employed in plant studies. In this mini review, we will discuss the current range of synthetic fluorescent probes that have been exploited for live-cell imaging and the recent advances in the application that enable genetical tagging of synthetic probes in plant research.

Abstract
Synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs), one of the most effective treatments for chronic inflammatory and autoimmune conditions in children, have adverse effects on the growing skeleton. GCs inhibit angiogenesis in growing bone, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we show that GC treatment in young mice induces vascular endothelial cell senescence in metaphysis of long bone, and that inhibition of endothelial cell senescence improves GC-impaired bone angiogenesis with coupled osteogenesis. We identify angiogenin (ANG), a ribonuclease with pro-angiogenic activity, secreted by osteoclasts as a key factor for protecting the neighboring vascular cells against senescence. ANG maintains the proliferative activity of endothelial cells through plexin-B2 (PLXNB2)-mediated transcription of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). GC treatment inhibits ANG production by suppressing osteoclast formation in metaphysis, resulting in impaired endothelial cell rRNA transcription and subsequent cellular senescence. These findings reveal the role of metaphyseal blood vessel senescence in mediating the action of GCs on growing skeleton and establish the ANG/PLXNB2 axis as a molecular basis for the osteoclast-vascular interplay in skeletal angiogenesis.

Abstract
γ-Glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) is overexpressed in several types of cancer. Existing GGT-targeting fluorescence probes can image these cancers, but the fluorescent hydrolysis product leaks from the target cancer cells during prolonged incubation or fixation. Here, we present a functionalized fluorescence probe for GGT, 4-CH2 F-HMDiEtR-gGlu, which is designed to generate an azaquinone methide intermediate during activation by GGT; this intermediate reacts with intracellular nucleophiles to generate a fluorescent adduct that is trapped inside the cells, without loss of the target enzyme activity. Application of the probe to patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mice enabled in vivo cancer imaging for a prolonged period and was also compatible with fixation and immunostaining of the cancer tissue.

Abstract
Reagents to visualize and localize neuraminidase activity would be valuable probes to study the role of neuraminidases in normal cellular processes as well as during viral infections or cancer development. Herein, a new class of neuraminidase-imaging probes that function as proximity ligation reagents by releasing a highly reactive fluorophore that tags nearby cellular material is described. It is further demonstrated that it is possible to create an influenza virus-specific reagent, which can specifically detect influenza virus infections in mammalian cells. These reagents have potential use as specific histological probes independent of viral antigenicity and, therefore, offer some advantages over commonly used anti-neuraminidase antibodies.
