ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5
ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 is an ERβ-selective fluorescent probe that binds preferentially to ERβ over ERα, enabling near-infrared fluorescence imaging of ERβ in living cells and in vivo. ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 supports measurement of ERβ diffusion coefficient via fluorescence recovery after photobleaching. ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 shows low cytotoxicity across multiple cell types, preserves ERβ expression, accumulates at ERβ-overexpressing tumor sites in vivo, and exhibits minimal fluorescence fluctuation across varied pH and cellular analyte conditions. ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 can be used for the research of prostate cancer.

In Vitro
ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 binds selectively to ERβ LBD with an RBA of 4.612 and 6.579-fold selectivity over ERα[1].
ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 exhibits NIR emission, a large Stokes shift, linear fluorescence response in the 1-100 μM range, and strong anti-interference stability against pH, cellular analytes, and ionic strength[1].
ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 (Compound P5) (72h) exhibits low cytotoxicity in MCF-10A, MCF-7, and DU-145 cells, with IC50 values of >100, >100, and 79.16 μM, respectively[1].
ERβ-targeted NIR probe P5 (10 μM; 30 min) selectively labels ERβ in DU-145 prostate cancer cells, localizes to both nucleus and cytoplasm, and shows high colocalization with ERβ antibody staining[1].

Cell Line:MCF-7 breast cancer cells, DU-145 prostate cancer cells
-
Concentration:10 μM (P5); 100 μM (estradiol, competitive co-incubation)
-
Incubation Time:30 min (P5 incubation); 30 min (competitive co-incubation with estradiol); 10 min (Hoechst 33342 staining); 30 min (Mito-tracker Green staining); 12 h (anti-ERβ primary antibody incubation); 1 h (DyLight 488 secondary antibody incubation)
-
Result:Emitted strong fluorescence in ERβ-overexpressing DU-145 cells but very weak fluorescence in ERα-overexpressing MCF-7 cells.
Showed no obvious fluorescence when excess estradiol was co-administered.
Distributed in both the nucleus and cytoplasm of DU-145 cells and showed strong ERβ labeling with a high colocalization rate with ERβ immunofluorescence staining.
