Two-photon fluorescent probes for acidic vesicles in live cells and tissue and method of imaging acidic vesicles in live cells and tissue using the same

摘要

Provided are two-photon fluorescent probes for imaging acidic vesicles in live cells and tissue. The probes are represented by; The probes can selectively bind to vesicles in cytosol to emit two-photon excited fluorescence with high intensity. Therefore, the use of the probes enables effective imaging of acidic vesicles. Further provided is a method for imaging acidic vesicles in live cells and tissue using the probes.
