Novel mycophenolic acid precursor-based fluorescent probe for intracellular H2O2 detection in living cells and Daphnia magna and Zebrafish model systems.

Innovative for the scientific community and attracting attention in the extensive biomedical field are novel compact organic chemosensing systems built upon unique core molecular frameworks. These systems may demonstrate customized responses and may be adaptable to analytes, showing promise for potential in vivo applications. Our recent investigation focuses on a precursor of Mycophenolic acid, resulting in the development of LBM (LOD = 13 nM) – a specialized probe selective for H₂O₂. This paper details the synthesis, characterization, and thorough biological assessments of LBM. Notably, we conducted experiments involving living cells, daphnia, and zebrafish models, utilizing microscopy techniques to determine probe nontoxicity and discern distinct patterns of probe localization. Localization involved the distribution of the probe in the Zebrafish model within the gut, esophagus, and muscles of the antennae. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
