Liu, Gui-Chun; Dong, Zhi-Wei; Hou, Qing-Bai; He, Jin-Wu; Zhao, Ruo-Ping; Wang, Wen; Li, Xue-Yan published the artcile< Second Rhagophthalmid Luciferase Cloned from Chinese Glow-worm Menghuoius giganteus (Rhagophthalmidae: Elateroidea)>, Quality Control of 2591-17-5, the main research area is sequence luciferase mol cloning Rhagophthalmus Menghuoius.

The pH-insensitive beetle luciferases cloned from Rhagophthalmidae, Phengodidae, and Elateridae exhibit great potential application as reporter assays for monitoring gene expression. At present, however, only one luciferase has been reported from the enigmatic and predominantly Asian distributed luminous family Rhagophthalmidae. Here, we cloned the second rhagophthalmid luciferase from the Chinese glow-worm Menghuoius giganteus (Rhagophthalmidae: Elateroidea) by combining reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with rapid amplification of complementary DNA ends (RACE). The luciferase consisted of 546 amino acids and showed high identity to that of Rhagophthalmus ohbai (90.4%). The recombinant M. giganteus luciferase was produced in vitro and exhibited significant bioluminescent activity under neutral conditions (pH 7.8), with low KM for D-luciferin (2.2μM) and ATP (53μM). Activity was highest at 10°C and inactivation occurred at 45°C. This luciferase showed pH-insensitivity and maximum emission spectrum at 560 nm. Phylogenetic analyses based on the deduced amino acids indicated a close relationship between the M. giganteus luciferase and that of R. ohbai. These results increase our understanding of rhagophthalmid luciferases and provide a new resource for the application of luciferases.

Wang, Chenchen; Du, Wei; Zhang, Tong; Liang, Gaolin published the artcile< A Bioluminescent Probe for Simultaneously Imaging Esterase and Histone Deacetylase Activity in a Tumor>, COA of Formula: C11H8N2O3S2, the main research area is histone deacetylase esterase tumor imaging bioluminescent probe.

The monitoring of esterase (CES) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity in living cells has great potential for rapid diagnosis of malignant tumors. At present, using one bioluminescence (BL) probe to simultaneously detect (or image) these two enzymes’ activity in tumors has not been reported. Herein, a bioluminescence “”turn-on”” probe AcAH-Luc (6-acetamidohexanoic acid-D-luciferin) was rationally designed for simultaneously imaging CES and HDAC activity with excellent sensitivity and selectivity. AcAH-Luc was successfully applied in vitro to selectively detect CES and HDAC6, a subtype of HDAC, at a linear concentration range of 0-100 and 0-120 nM with limits of detection (LODs) of 0.495 and 1.14 nM, resp. In vivo results indicated that about 1/2 and 1/3 of the “”turn-on”” BL signal of AcAH-Luc was contributed by CES and HDAC activity in the tumors, resp. We envision that AcAH-Luc might be applied to simultaneously measure (and image) CES and HDAC activity in the clinic for assisting with the precise diagnosis of malignant tumors in the near future.

Viviani, Vadim R.; Bevilaqua, Vanessa R.; de Souza, Daniel R.; Pelentir, Gabriel F.; Kakiuchi, Michio; Hirano, Takashi published the artcile< A very bright far-red bioluminescence emitting combination based on engineered railroad worm luciferase and 6′-amino-analogs for bioimaging purposes>, Synthetic Route of 2591-17-5, the main research area is far red bioluminescence emitting luciferase amino analog bioimaging; Far-Red bioluminescence; NIR bioluminescence; bioimaging; biophotonics; luciferin amino-analogs.

Beetle luciferases produce bioluminescence (BL) colors ranging from green to red, having been extensively used for many bioanal. purposes, including bioimaging of pathogen infections and metastasis proliferation in living animal models and cell culture. For bioimaging purposes in mammalian tissues, red bioluminescence is preferred, due to the lower self-absorption of light at longer wavelengths by Hb, myoglobin and melanin. Red bioluminescence is naturally produced only by Phrixothrix hirtus railroad worm luciferase (PxRE), and by some engineered beetle luciferases. However, Far-Red (FR) and Near-IR (NIR) bioluminescence is best suited for bioimaging in mammalian tissues due to its higher penetrability. Although some FR and NIR emitting luciferin analogs have been already developed, they usually emit much lower bioluminescence activity when compared to the original luciferin-luciferases. Using site-directed mutagenesis of PxRE luciferase in combination with 6′-modified amino-luciferin analogs, we finally selected novel FR combinations displaying BL ranging from 636-655 nm. Among them, the combination of PxRE-R215K mutant with 6′-(1-pyrrolidinyl)luciferin proved to be the best combination, displaying the highest BL activity with a catalytic efficiency ~2.5 times higher than the combination with native firefly luciferin, producing the second most FR-shifted bioluminescence (650 nm), being several orders of magnitude brighter than com. AkaLumine with firefly luciferase. Such combination also showed higher thermostability, slower BL decay time and better penetrability across bacterial cell membranes, resulting in ~3 times higher in vivo BL activity in bacterial cells than with firefly luciferin. Overall, this is the brightest FR emitting combination ever reported, and is very promising for bioimaging purposes in mammalian tissues.

A review. In vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI), which is based on luminescence emitted by the luciferase-luciferin reaction, has enabled continuous monitoring of various biochem. processes in living animals. Bright luminescence with a high signal-to-background ratio, ideally red or near-IR light as the emission maximum, is necessary for in vivo animal experiments Various attempts have been undertaken to achieve this goal, including genetic engineering of luciferase, chem. modulation of luciferin, and utilization of bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET). In this review, we overview a recent advance in the development of a bioluminescence system for in vivo BLI. We also specifically examine the improvement in bioluminescence intensity by mutagenic or chem. modulation on several beetle and marine luciferase bioluminescence systems. We further describe that intramol. BRET enhances luminescence emission, with recent attempts for the development of red-shifted bioluminescence system, showing great potency in in vivo BLI. Perspectives for future improvement of bioluminescence systems are discussed.

Luciferin mols. are common luminophores found throughout the biol. kingdoms. Here, electrospray ionization and tandem ion mobility spectrometry coupled with laser spectroscopy are used to demonstrate that D-luciferin and oxyluciferin deprotonated anions can be produced in two isomeric forms, which can be separated by virtue of their different collision cross sections with a buffer gas. The two isomers possess distinguishable but partially overlapping photodepletion action spectra over the visible range, implying distinct intrinsic absorption profiles. The site of deprotonation and tautomeric forms of the electrosprayed isomers are assigned through comparisons between exptl. and calculated collision cross sections and electronic excitation energies. The study clearly shows that electrospray ionization of biochromophore mols. can generate multiple isomeric forms with distinct electronic spectra.

Weber, Rebecca Z.; Bodenmann, Chantal; Uhr, Daniela; Zurcher, Kathrin J.; Wanner, Debora; Generali, Melanie; Nitsch, Roger M.; Rust, Ruslan; Tackenberg, Christian published the artcile< Intracerebral transplantation and in vivo bioluminescence tracking of human neural progenitor cells in the mouse brain>, Related Products of 2591-17-5, the main research area is human neural progenitor cell brain intracerebral transplantation bioluminescence tracking.

Cell therapy has long been an emerging treatment paradigm in exptl. neurobiol. However, cell transplantation studies often rely on end-point measurements and can therefore only evaluate longitudinal changes of cell migration and survival to a limited extent. This paper provides a reliable, minimally invasive protocol to transplant and longitudinally track neural progenitor cells (NPCs) in the adult mouse brain. Before transplantation, cells are transduced with a lentiviral vector comprising a bioluminescent (firefly-luciferase) and fluorescent (green fluorescent protein [GFP]) reporter. The NPCs are transplanted into the right cortical hemisphere using stereotaxic injections in the sensorimotor cortex. Following transplantation, grafted cells were detected through the intact skull for up to five weeks (at days 0, 3, 14, 21, 35) with a resolution limit of 6,000 cells using in vivo bioluminescence imaging. Subsequently, the transplanted cells are identified in histol. brain sections and further characterized with immunofluorescence. Thus, this protocol provides a valuable tool to transplant, track, quantify, and characterize cells in the mouse brain.

Circadian rhythms are driven by daily oscillations of gene expression. An important tool for studying cellular and tissue circadian rhythms is the use of a gene reporter, such as bioluminescence from the reporter gene luciferase controlled by a rhythmically expressed gene of interest. Here we describe methods that allow measurement of circadian bioluminescence from a freely moving mouse housed in a standard cage. Using a LumiCycle In Vivo (Actimetrics), we determined conditions that allow detection of circadian rhythms of bioluminescence from the PER2 reporter, PER2::LUC, in freely behaving mice. The LumiCycle In Vivo applies a background subtraction that corrects for effects of room temperature on photomultiplier tube (PMT) output. We tested delivery of d-luciferin via a s.c. minipump and in the drinking water. We demonstrate spikes in bioluminescence associated with drinking bouts. Further, we demonstrate that a synthetic luciferase substrate, CycLuc1, can support circadian rhythms of bioluminescence, even when delivered at a lower concentration than d-luciferin, and can support longer-term studies. A small difference in phase of the PER2::LUC bioluminescence rhythms, with females phase leading males, can be detected with this technique. We share our anal. scripts and suggestions for further improvements in this method. This approach will be straightforward to apply to mice with tissue-specific reporters, allowing insights into responses of specific peripheral clocks to perturbations such as environmental or pharmacol. manipulations.

Mechanochem. analogs have recently been established for several enzymic reactions, but they require periodic interruption of the reaction for sampling, dissolution, and (bio)chem. anal. to monitor their progress. By applying a mechanochem. procedure to induce bioluminescence analogous to that used by the marine ostracod Cypridina (Vargula) hilgendorfii, the light emitted by a bioluminescent reaction can be used to directly monitor the progress of a mechanoenzymic reaction without sampling. Mech. treatment of Cypridina luciferase with luciferin generates bright blue light which can be readily detected and analyzed spectroscopically. This mech. assisted bioluminescence proceeds through a mechanism identical to that of bioluminescence in solution, but has higher activation energy due to being diffusion-controlled in the viscous matrix. The results suggest that luciferases could be used as light-emissive reporters of mechanoenzymic reactions.

A review. Bioluminescence has long been used to image biol. processes in vivo. This technol. features luciferase enzymes and luciferin small mols. that produce visible light. Bioluminescent photons can be detected in tissues and live organisms, enabling sensitive and noninvasive readouts on physiol. function. Traditional applications have focused on tracking cells and gene expression patterns, but new probes are pushing the frontiers of what can be visualized. The past few years have also seen the merger of bioluminescence with optogenetic platforms. Luciferase-luciferin reactions can drive light-activatable proteins, ultimately triggering signal transduction and other downstream events. This review highlights these and other recent advances in bioluminescence technol., with an emphasis on tool development. We showcase how new luciferins and engineered luciferases are expanding the scope of optical imaging. We also highlight how bioluminescent systems are being leveraged not just for sensing-but also controlling-biol. processes.

Xiao, Yao; Peng, Jinrong; Liu, Qingya; Chen, Lijuan; Shi, Kun; Han, Ruxia; Yang, Qian; Zhong, Lin; Zha, Ruoyu; Qu, Ying; Qian, Zhiyong published the artcile< Ultrasmall CuS@BSA nanoparticles with mild photothermal conversion synergistically induce MSCs-differentiated fibroblast and improve skin regeneration>, COA of Formula: C11H8N2O3S2, the main research area is copper sulfide BSA nanoparticle MSC fibroblast skin regeneration; CuS@BSA; MSCs; differentiation; photothermal conversion; wound healing..

Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapies have been used in skin regeneration due to their ability to differentiate into many cells, promote cytokine secretion and participate in collagen deposition. In this study, we concluded that a CuS@BSA nanoparticles exhibited similar potential in inducing MSCs differentiation to fibroblasts as Cu ions for wound healing. First, we verified the photothermal efficiency of CuS@BSA in vivo and vitro and had no cytotoxicity for MSCs when the temperature was controlled at 42°C by adjusting the power of irradiation at 980 nm. And then we detected the expression of vimentin in MSCs, which further directed the MSCs to fibroblasts through Western blotting and Immunofluorescence when treated with CuS@BSA or pre-heat at 42°C. In addition, we implanted MSCs into the Matrigel or electrospun PLA nanofiber membrane in vitro to evaluating the effect of heating or CuS@BSA on the morphol. change of MSCs by SEM. Finally, we evaluated improving skin regeneration by the combination of preheated-MSCs and CuS@BSA nanoparticles that were encapsulated in Matrigel. The CuS@BSA nanoparticles have good photothermal conversion efficiency. Not only CuS nanoparticles itself or after irradiation at 980 nm stimulated the expressioin of vimentin in MSCs. Besides, the CuS@BSA can promote cell proliferation as Cu ion through the expression of ERK. The combination of the CuS@BSA nanoparticles and thermal treatment synergistically improved the closure of an injured wound in an injured wound model. MSCs combined with CuS@BSA are a promising wound dressing for the reconstruction of full-thickness skin injuries.
