Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A series of fluorescent probes for hydrogen peroxide have been developed that have a mononuclear nonheme iron complex as a reaction site toward hydrogen peroxide. They are all non-fluorescent, but once reacting with low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide inside cells, they release green- or red-emitting fluorescent dyes such as resorufin and fluorescein. We have succeeded in real-time imaging of hydrogen peroxide that was produced as a messenger inside A431 cells upon stimulation of epidermal growth factors.
