摘要
Nitric oxide has played an important role in many physiological and pathological processes as a kind of important gas signal molecules. In this work, a new fluorescent probe LysoNO-Naph for detecting NO in lysosomes based on 1,8-naphthalimide was reported. LysoNO-Naph has sub-groups of o-phenylene- diamine as a NO reaction site and 4-（2-aminoethyl）-morpholine as a lysosome-targetable group. This probe exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity （4.57 μmol/L） toward NO in a wide pH range from 4 to 12. Furthermore, LysoNO-Naph can be used for imaging NO in lysosomes in living cells.
