| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed fluorescent probe targeted for glutathione (GSH). To overcome the problems of existing probes, we developed the FRET type fluorescent probe, nameed QuicGSH series, using a reversible fluorescence control mechanism. In addition to the quantification of GSH in cultured cells , new findings on oxidative stress tolerance mechanism were achieved. Based on the findings obtained in this study, further elucidate the resistance to treatment of cancer cells and application for cancer therapy are expected.
