    Journal: J Mater Chem B; 2024 May 15; 12(19):4724-4735. PubMed ID: 38655674.
    Abstract:
    We have developed a highly sensitive and reliable fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) probe using nitro-dopamine (ND) and dopamine (DA) coated MnO2 nanosheet (ND@MnO2 NS and DA@MnO2 NS) as an energy acceptor and MoS2 quantum dots (QDs) as an energy donor. By employing surface-modified MnO2 NS, we can effectively reduce the fluorescence intensity of MoS2 QDs through FRET. It can reduce MnO2 NS to Mn2+ and facilitate the fluorescence recovery of the MoS2 QDs. This ND@MnO2 NS@MoS2 QD-based nanoprobe demonstrates excellent sensitivity to GSH, achieving an LOD of 22.7 nM in an aqueous medium while exhibiting minimal cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility. Moreover, our sensing platform shows high selectivity to GSH towards various common biomolecules and electrolytes. Confocal fluorescence imaging revealed that the nanoprobe can image GSH in A549 cells. Interestingly, the ND@MnO2 NS nanoprobe demonstrates no cytotoxicity in living cancer cells, even at concentrations up to 100 μg mL-1. Moreover, the easy fabrication and eco-friendliness of ND@MnO2 NS make it a rapid and simple method for detecting GSH. We envision the developed nanoprobe as an incredible platform for real-time monitoring of GSH levels in both extracellular and intracellular mediums, proving valuable for biomedical research and clinical diagnostics.
