基于羧酸银的光敏热成像技术进展

最近10年,光敏热显影成像材料在技术上取得了重要进展,特别是以羧酸银作为银源的这类材料.这些进展集中体现在1995年为满足商品需要而研制成功的世界上第一个具有高分辨力、可作诊断使用的医用X射线胶片的Kodak DryView激光成像片上.此后,采用同样技术的一类特殊片种,即高反差的印刷胶片也随之问世.这些产品的实践应用都相当成功,已被多家公司所采用.这些新产品得益于三个方面的技术进展:改进成像层的照相性质、高影像质量和低成本的激光成像硬件,这也是此研究工作的焦点.在这类材料上所取得的重要成就反映在它们的高分辨力、高最大密度、低最小密度以及整张胶片性质的均一性上.所有这些优点,再加上超过100年的影像稳定性,使原来“老”的光敏热显影技术发生了一次脱胎换骨的变化,成为了当今最新的一种硬拷贝成像介质.

基于核酶开关的哺乳细胞内硫胺素焦磷酸荧光生物传感器的建立

硫胺素焦磷酸(Thiamine pyrophosphate,TPP)是维生素B1在细胞内的主要活性形式,也是糖、脂肪酸和氨基酸氧化代谢中重要的辅助因子.在细胞内,利用TPP适配体与天然核酶组装成的人工核酶开关调节靶基因表达,目前仅局限于原核、真菌或植物细胞.本实验将原核生物中筛选的“Switch-on”与“Switch-off"的两种类型的TPP核酶开关,运用重叠延伸PCR的方法构建于增强绿色荧光蛋白(EGFP)报告基因的3'非翻译区(UTR),转染人胚肾上皮细胞(HEK293),通过荧光显微镜和流式细胞仪分析,观察了不同浓度TPP对EGFP表达能力的调控.结果表明,构建的两种“Switch-on”和一种“Switch-off”核酶开关均表现出明显的TPP浓度依赖性,且具有良好的特异性,在150 μmol/L TPP时分别将EGFP的荧光强度提高3.1倍、1.9倍和降低2.3倍.这种构建通过TPP与核酶开关中其适配体的特异性作用直接将TPP浓度的变化转化为报告基因表达的改变,利于通过荧光检测方法实现对哺乳活细胞内代谢物或因子的无标记、无损伤、可视、高效的检测.

Metalloenzyme-Mediated Thiol-Yne Addition Towards Photoisomerizable Fluorescent Dyes

Proteins are able to irreversibly assemble biologically active ligands from building blocks bearing complementary reactive functions due their spatial proximity, through a kinetic target-guided synthetic process (also named in situ click chemistry). Although linkages thus formed are mostly passive, some of them have shown to significantly contribute to the protein binding through for instance hydrogen bonding and stacking interactions. Biocompatible reactions and click chemistry are a formidable source of inspiration for developing such new protein-directed ligations. This study reports a proximity-induced thiol-yne synthesis of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. Not only this example widens the arsenal of kinetic target-guided synthesis (KTGS) eligible reactions, but the obtained product displayed unsuspected photophysical properties. The corresponding vinyl sulfide linkage conjugated to a coumarin core proved to be engaged in a monodirectional Z to E photoisomerization process. Further investigations guided by theoretical calculations showed that fine-tuning of the nature of the substituents on the coumarin moiety allows to obtain a bidirectional photochemical process, thus discovering a new photoswitching moiety, displaying moreover fluorescence properties. Due to the spectral tunability of coumarin derivatives, this work should open new opportunities for the design of vinyl sulfide-based photoswitch systems with modular photophysical properties.

Mechanical Switches of Fluorescence

Fluorescence switches are molecular systems containing a light-emitting fragment whose activity can be quenched/revived reversibly, at will,through an external parameter, i.e., a change of pH or the variation of the redox potential.Fluorescence switches can be static (the emission of the fluorophore isswitched ON/OFF by a bistable covalently linked control unit) or dynamic(the change in fluorescence is accompanied by an oriented molecular motion). Of the latterclass of switches, we will consider the cases (i) of a metal scorpionate and (ii) ofsystems in which a metal is reversibly translocated between two nonequivalent compartmentsof a ditopic ligand.     

Photoisomerizable bipyridine ligands and macroligands: absorption, photoisomerization properties and theoretical study.

Two 2,2'-bipyridines, substituted at the 4,4'-positions by p-dialkylaminophenylazostyryl moieties p-R2N-C6H4-N=N-C6H4-CH=CH-[6 a, R2N=nBu2N; 6 b, R2N=(nBu)(C4H8OTHP)N; 6 c, R2N=(nBu)(C4H8OH)N], were successfully synthesized by using Wadworth-Emmons reactions. The X-ray structure of 6 a has been determined. Esterification of 6 c with 2-bromoisobutyroylbromide afforded 6 d. This ligand was used as an initiator for the living radical polymerization of methylmethacrylate (MMA) and gave rise to macroligand 6 e. Thin films of good optical quality were obtained by the spin-coating technique. Photoisomerization experiments were carried out on 6 a in solution and on 6 e in both solution and film, and the kinetics of photochemical (E/Z) and thermal (Z/E) isomerization were investigated. They were found to show Z-E back isomerization typical of aminoazobenzene-type rather than of push-pull-type molecules. Density functional theoretical (TD-DFT) calculations were performed on model compound 6 a' (R2N=Me2N) to understand the structural and electronic transitions of the corresponding E-E, E-Z and Z-Z isomers. It was found that the E-E isomer is almost planar as observed experimentally by X-ray diffraction, whereas the Z-Z isomer, which is 35.4 kcal mol(-1) less stable than the E-E isomer, is nonplanar. The theoretical studies also reveal that several transitions of pi-pi*, n-pi* and charge-transfer (CT) types, are involved in the long-wavelength transition of 6 a (E-E). The same observations can be made for the (Z-Z) isomer, and the TD-DFT simulated spectrum fits quite nicely to the experimental, reproducing and explaining the apparition of a blue-shifted charge-transfer band at 390 nm.     

Interlocked Porphyrin Switches

We describe the synthesis of a series of interlocked structures from porphyrin–glycoluril cage compounds and bis(olefin)‐terminated viologens by an olefin‐metathesis protocol. The length of the chain connecting the olefin substituents with the viologen has a marked effect on the products of the ring‐closure reaction. Long chains give [2]‐ and [3]catenane structures, whereas short chains give a mixture of [3]‐, [4]‐, and [5]catenanes. For comparison several [2]rotaxane compounds were prepared. The interlocked catenane and rotaxane structures display switching behavior, which can be controlled by the addition of acid and base. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the switching processes have been determined by NMR spectroscopy.     

Mussel-Inspired Surface-Imprinted Sensors for Potentiometric Label-Free Detection of Biological Species

Using sensors to quantify clinically relevant biological species has emerged as a fascinating research field due to their potential to revolutionize clinical diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring. Taking advantage of the wide utility in clinical analysis and low cost of potentiometric ion sensors, we demonstrate a method to use such ion sensors to quantify bioanalytes without chemical labels. This is achieved by combination of chronopotentiometry with a mussel-inspired surface imprinting technique. The biomimetic sensing method is based on a blocking mechanism by which the recognition reaction between the surface imprinted polymer and a bioanalyte can block the current-induced ion transfer of an indicator ion, thus causing a potential change. The present method offers high sensitivity and excellent selectivity for detection of biological analytes. As models, trypsin and yeast cells can be measured at levels down to 0.03 U mL⁻¹ and 50 CFU mL⁻¹, respectively.
