5GluAF-2MeTG
5GluAF-2MeTG is an activatable fluorescent probe targeting the glutamate carboxypeptidase (CP) activity of PSMA (Ex/Em=490/500-600 nm). After being hydrolyzed by PSMA, 5GluAF-2MeTG releases a cell membrane-permeable fluorescent product, and achieves fluorescence activation by disrupting donor-excited photoinduced electron transfer (d-PeT). 5GluAF-2MeTG enables fluorescence imaging of live PSMA-expressing prostate cancer cells in vitro and visualizes the carboxypeptidase activity of PSMA. 5GluAF-2MeTG can be used to detect prostate cancer regions in preclinical excised tissue specimens.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
5GluAF-2MeTG (10 μM; 10 hr at 37 °C) undergoes robust, time-dependent fluorescence activation in PSMA-positive LNCaP cell lysate, with no activation in PSMA-negative PC3 cell lysate[1].

Bioluminescent/Fluorescent Imaging Xenograft
Bioluminescent and fluorescent imaging xenograft models use tumor cells engineered to express optical reporters so tumor engraftment, growth, dissemination, and treatment response can be monitored longitudinally in living animals and validated ex vivo. Bioluminescence imaging usually measures luciferase activity after substrate administration and is commonly used as a surrogate for viable reporter-expressing tumor burden, while fluorescence imaging measures reporter or probe emission and can support tumor localization, ex vivo confirmation, or complementary multimodal analysis.
