摘要
Most reported fluorescent probes have limitations in practical applications in living systems due to the strong autofluorescence background,construction of probes with near-infrared（NIR） fluorescence emission is an accessible approach for addressing this challenge.We here designed a NIR fluorescent probe for monitoring the endogenous production of H2S in living cells.The designed probe showed significant NIR fluorescence turn-on response to H2S with high selectivity,enabling the sensitive detection H2S.Importantly,the probe could be applied in monitoring the endogenous production of H2S in raw 264.7 macrophages.This study showed that fluvastatin can promote the activity of cystathionineγ-lyase（CSE） for generation H2S.
