ABSTRACT: Two-photon (TP) fluorescent probes are potential candidates for NIR imaging which holds great promise in biological researches. However, currently most TP probes emit at wavelength 650 nm at NIR region) TP fluorophores has been reported, which still suffer from deficiencies such as poor water solubility, low fluorescence quantum yield or limited two-photon action cross section (Φδ).15-19 Therefore, it is still a great challenge and highly desired to develop TP probes with both NIR emission and satisfying comprehensive properties, which is one of the bottlenecks to achieve “NIR-to-NIR” imaging. To address the above challenge, we herein propose a new “NIR-to-NIR” TP fluorescent probe, which for the first time uses a Si-rhodamine dye (SiR)20-23 as the scaffold and exhibits so far the best comprehensive performance. The probe was designed for nitric oxide (NO), a critical signal molecule in biological system that has triggered tremendous interest in chemistry and biology communities.24-25 Although there has been a considerable number of probes reported for NO,26-29 the tracking of subtle variation of

this signal molecule in physiological and pathological events in situ, such as in tumor development, is still difficult and rarely achieved. This situation also highlights the pressing needs to develop new probes with higher capabilities in bioimaging. The probe SiRNO was constructed following a photoinduced electron transfer (PeT) principle. A Si-rhodamine derivate was used as the two-photon excitable fluorophore, and 4-methoxy-Nmethylaniline moiety was selected as NO recognition site based on the N-nitrosation reaction under aerobic condition.18, 30 The two moieties were covalently linked by a short carbon-carbon single bond (Scheme 1), which facilitates the occurrence of PeT process to quenching the fluorescence of probe.31-36 Upon the Nnitrosation of the methylamino group by NO, the fluorescence of SiRNO would be lightened up due to the suppression of PeT process. SiRNO was synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS (Scheme S1 and Figure S9-18).

Scheme 1. Design of a silicon-rhodamine based “NIR-toNIR” two-photon fluorescent probe SiRNO for the detection of NO in cells and mouse.

In order to explore the two-photon fluorescence properties of SiR-based fluorophore, we firstly synthesized another dye SiROMe (Scheme S1). SiR-OMe has similar structure with SiRNO but is highly fluorescent due to the absence of PeT. The photophysical properties of SiR-OMe were investigated in 10 mM PBS solution (pH=7.4, 0.5% DMSO). To our delight, SiR-OMe showed a NIR emission band centering at 670 nm, with a maximal active cross section (Φδ value, Φ is the fluorescence quantum yield and δ is the TP absorption cross section) of 75 GM under 820 nm excitation (Figure 1a and Figure S1). This Φδ value is

comparable to that of most current TP fluorophores, standing for a high enough brightness in imaging experiments. Besides, the dyeSiR-OMe also has good water solubility, which is always a concern of long-wavelength emissive dyes. It suggests that the

(c) Fluorescence spectra of SiRNO with various NO concentrations (0-30 µM). (d) Plot of fluorescence intensity versus NO concentration (0-30 µM). Inset: the linear relationship between fluorescence intensity and NO concentration in the range of 0.4-20 µM. All data were measured in 10 mM PBS buffer (pH=7.4, 0.5% DMSO). Reaction time: 30 min. Si-rhodamine scaffold might be an ideal platform to develop “NIR-to-NIR” probes. We then examined the response of the probe SiRNO to NO. To start, the fluorescence change of SiRNO upon reacting with excessive NO as a function of time was checked. As shown in Figure S2, the fluorescence intensity reached the plateau within only 90 s with 81-fold emission enhancement, indicating a quite fast response to the target. The probe shows a maximal absorption at 651 (ε =1.17×105 M-1cm-1) and 653 nm (ε =1.17×105 M-1cm-1)， respectively, before and after reacting with excessive NO (Figure 1b). As expected, the probe itself exhibited very weak fluorescence emission at 672 nm (Φ=0.002), as a consequence of the PeT process which was confirmed by the DFT calculation results (Figure S3). After the reaction with varying amounts of NO, a gradually increasing fluorescence enhancement at 672 nm (with a maximal Φ = 0.23) was observed (Figure 1c). The fluorescence intensity of the reaction product also exhibited a linear relationship with NO concentration in the range of 0.4-20 µM (R2 =0.98), with a limit of detection (LOD) value of 14 nM according to the 3Sb/m criterion, where m is the slope for the range of linearity and Sb is the standard deviation of the blank (n=11) (Figure 1d). Such a LOD represents a high sensitivity among the reported smallmolecule probes for NO. Thereafter, we tested the response of the probe under two-photon excitation mode. The probe itself showed a maximal Φδ value of 0.14 GM, while the product of the probeto-NO reaction showed a maximal Φδ value of 62 GM (Table S1). The remarkable enhancement of Φδ value (ca. 440 fold) suggests that SiRNO can be a sensitive TP probe for NO detection and imaging under two-photon microscopy. The specificity of SiRNO toward NO was examined by detecting its fluorescence response to a variety of biomolecules and other reactive species, including ascorbic acid (AA), dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), methylglyoxal (MGO), GSH, Cys, Hcy,

H2O2, ClO-, ⋅OH, O2-, NO2- and ONOO-. As shown in Figure S4, none of these interfering species caused obvious fluorescence enhancement. The result revealed pronounced selectivity of SiRNO toward NO, which is in agreement with our recent study

The SiRNO-loaded cells were co-incubated with 200 nM MitoTracker Green and 100 nM Lysotracker Green for 1 h and imaged, respectively. The excitation wavelengths were 633 nm (SiRNO) and 488 nm (MTG and LTG), and the corresponding emission were collected at 650-750 nm and 500-600 nm. Scale bar, 10 µm. using the N-nitrosation strategy for NO recognition.18 It was also verified that both SiRNO and its N-nitrosation product are pHinsensitive in the range of 5.5-8.0 (Figure S5), showing that SiRNO is suitable for the detection of NO in the physiological pH range. We next looked into the reaction mechanism between SiRNO and NO. As an initial step, we made a model compound 4-methoxy-N-methylaniline containing the recognition site of NO, and studied its reaction with NO in PBS/CH3CN (2:1) solution. The results revealed that 4-methoxy-N-methylaniline can be easily converted into its N-nitrosation product with a high yield of 95%, which was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and MS analysis (Scheme S2 and Figure S19-21). Then, the probe was allowed to react with NO in the PBS buffer, and the resulting solution was analyzed by LC-MS. The LC-MS analysis also clearly indicated that the major product was the N-nitrosation product (Figure S6), which rationalized our probe design. The cytotoxicity of SiRNO was evaluated by tetrazolium-based colorimetric (MTT) assay. As illustrated in Figure S7, SiRNO exhibits a low cytotoxicity to HeLa cells (cell viability>90%) at a concentration up to 15 µM. We thus attempted to utilize the probe to detect intracellular NO. To clarify the distribution of SiRNO in live cells, RAW 264.7 cells loaded with SiRNO were coincubated with MitoTracker Green (MTG, a commercial mitochondria marker) and LysoTracker Green (LTG, a commercial lysosome marker), respectively. As shown in Figure 2, there is large fluorescence overlay between SiRNO and LTG with overlay coefficient of 0.98, while the overlay coefficient for SiRNO and MTG is 0.60. Unlike a previously reported Si-rhodamine dye that targeted mitochondria due to the lipophilic cationic dye structure,11 our results implied that SiRNO is mainly localized in lysosomes. This may be attributed to the inclusion of the alkaline secondary aniline moiety (ArNHMe) in the molecule, which tends to accumulate in lysosomes.37, 38 The ability of SiRNO to detect NO in live cells was firstly verified through capturing exogenously supplied NO, where the SiRNO stained HeLa cells were incubated with various concentrations (0, 20, 50 µM) of NO solution. As shown in Figure 3a, the SiRNO loaded cells with no external addition of NO showed

rather faint NIR fluorescence. Upon supplying NO to the SiRNO loaded cells, the intracellular fluorescence intensity was dramatically elevated, and the intensity is obviously dependent on the NO concentration (Figure 3b-3d).

(a) 0 µM NO; (b) 10 µM NO; (c) 20 µM NO; (d) Relative fluorescence intensity of image a-c. The fluorescence emission was collected at 650-750 nm upon the excitation at 820 nm. Scale bar, 20 µm. We further demonstrated the capability of SiRNO to track the subtle change of endogenously generated NO in live cells upon stimulation, which is more challenging since the signal molecule is always at very low concentration levels (nM-pM).39 RAW 264.7 cell was chosen for the test as it generates NO when stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ).40, 41 Similar to the above case of HeLa cells, the RAW 264.7 cells loaded only with the probe showed weak fluorescence (Figure 4a). By contrast, when the SiRNO stained cells were pretreated with the NO stimulants (0.5 mg/mL L-arginine, the substrate for nitric oxide synthase, 20 µg/mL LPS and 150 U/mL IFN-γ), much brighter intracellular fluorescence was observed due to the recognition of the generated NO by SiRNO (Figure 4b). To gain more information, two more groups were further tested, in which the generation of intracellular NO was down regulated by different means. In one group, the cells were pretreated with the NO stimulants together with 20 µM L-NG-nitroarginine (L-NNA, a wellknown inducible NO synthase (iNOS) inhibitor) for 6 h before loading probe and imaging. In this case, the intracellular fluorescence signal (Figure 4c) was suppressed, because of the inhibited generation of NO. In the other group, the cells were pretreated with the NO stimulants and 0.5 mM Carboxyl-PTIO42 (a commercial NO scavenger). As expected, the intracellular fluorescence (Figure 4d) was also largely decreased (comparing with Figure 4b), as a result of the scavenging of the as-generated NO. All these results have vividly proven that SiRNO is sensitive enough to monitor NO at low concentrations in live cells.

(b) Cells were pretreated with NO stimulants (0.5 mg/mL L-Arg, 20 µg/mL LPS and 150 U/mL IFN-γ) for 6h, and subsequently incubated with SiRNO for 30 min.

The fluorescence emission was collected at 650-750 nm upon the excitation of 820 nm. Scale bar: 20 µm. The success of detecting the target molecule in live cells inspired us to further use our probe in animal tissues. Using a mouse liver tissue as example, we firstly examined the ability of SiRNO to stain tissue samples. After incubating the liver tissue with SiRNO for 1h, followed by incubation with external NO solution for 0.5 h, the sample was observed using the z-scan mode of twophoton microscope, and the fluorescence intensities at different depths were recorded. As shown in Figure S8, the 3D reconstructed TP images revealed that the probe can well stain the tissue sample and the imaging depth was up to 200 µm, approving the advantage of NIR imaging. It was documented that the induction of NO in tumor cells may result in some protective effects by mediating cell proliferation, survival, and resistance, and the NO can be produced by the highly expressed iNOS and activated macrophages during inflammatory response.43, 44 In this context, it is meaningful to monitor the generation of NO in the development of tumor, which has been seldom achieved before. To this end, we employed the probe in three groups of mouse, i.e., one group of normal mouse as the control and other two groups of tumorbearing mouse. Each group of mouse was subcutaneously injected with 150 µL 1.0 mM probe solution 1.0 h before the tissues were harvested and imaged. As shown in Figure 5a, the tissue of the control exhibited weak NIR fluorescence (similar to the cell experiments). While the tissues of tumor-bearing mice showed much brighter fluorescence (Figure 5b and 5c). After the xenograft mice were grown for 2 weeks and 4 weeks, the fluorescence intensity of the tumor tissues was increased by 2.5 and 4.4 fold, respectively. To further verify the increased fluorescence signals were induced by NO, another tumor-bearing mouse was tested as control, which was injected with probe and Carboxyl-PTIO (NO scavenger). Similar to the NO detection in live cells, the fluorescence signal of the tumor tissue was sharply decreased (Figure 5d and 5e). The results evidently prove that the fluorescence enhancement was a result of the reaction of the probe with NO. Although this was just a simple proof-of-concept test, the results have unambiguously confirmed that the probe SiRNO can be a practical tool for NO detection in biological and biomedical applications.

In conclusion, we have developed a Si-rhodamine based TP fluorescent probe SiRNO for NO detection. The “NIR-to-NIR” probe possesses favorable two-photon properties and exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity for NO. The probe shows a limit of detection of 14 nM for NO in a solution assay. It is able to recognize NO in live cells, thus tracking the subtle variation of endogenously generated NO upon various stimulations. The probe can be used to monitor NO in the development of tumor in a xenograft mouse model. To the best of our knowledge, SiRNO is the first “NIR-to-NIR” probe using a Si-rhodamine scaffold as the fluorophore. The work not only affords a practical tool for NO imaging, but also proposes a new platform for the design of NIR emissive TP probes.
