Chem Commun (Camb). 2021 Dec 7;57(97):13186-13189. doi: 10.1039/d1cc05290j.

Abstract

A PGP-1-specific one/two-photon fluorogenic probe (BH1), capable of high sensitivity, super selectivity, and visual imaging of endogenous PGP-1 activity from live mammalian cells and serum/skin tissues from patients by using one/two-photon fluorescence microscopy (O/TPFM).
