Revealing the signaling regulation of hydrogen peroxide to cell pyroptosis using a ratiometric fluorescent probe in living cells†
Abstract
A ratiometric fluorescent probe with a large emission shift was developed for the accurate measurement of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in sophisticated pyroptosis signaling pathways. The results reported here demonstrate that H2O2, as a principal member of ROS, is a critical upstream signaling molecule in regulating pyroptosis.
