Accumulation of supramolecular nanoparticles self-assembled from a bola-shaped cytidylic acid-appended fluorescein dye in cell nuclei

Abstract

We examined the cellular uptake of the nanoparticles self-assembled from a bola-shaped cytidylic acid-appended fluorescein derivative (C-FLU-C). The accumulation of fluorescence in the Caco-2 cell nucleus was observed mainly after the plateau phase of cell growth, indicating that C-FLU-C permeated the nuclear envelope without nuclear-localizing tags.
