L&M-D-MR
L&M-D-MR is a highly specific fluorescent "AND" logic probe with response moieties for leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) and monoamine oxidase (MAO). The coexistence of both LAP and MAO is required for L&M-D-MR to trigger intramolecular cyclization, release fluorophores and activate fluorescence. In the presence of only a single enzyme, L&M-D-MR generates only an extremely weak signal. L&M-D-MR enables bioimaging in living cells and mouse models, and can effectively distinguish different subtypes of liver diseases via blood samples or test strips. L&M-D-MR is widely used in studies related to liver cirrhosis, hepatitis B and drug-induced liver injury.

Biological Activity
L&M-D-MR (10 μM; 10 h) produces strong, selective fluorescence in MAO- and LAP-overexpressing HepG2 liver cancer cells, with a 13.0-fold higher fluorescence intensity ratio between HepG2 and QSG-7701 normal liver cells, and its response is ablated by pretreatment with MAO or LAP inhibitors[1].
