Pt-Luc is a bioluminescent probe used for real-time, non-invasive monitoring of Pt (IV) prodrug reduction in living cells and animal models. The detection mechanism of Pt-Luc relies on the intracellular reduction mediated by active cysteine residues in proteins. Pt-Luc can penetrate the membrane of living cells; after entering cells, active cysteine thiolates in high-molecular-weight protein components reduce the Pt (IV) complex, thereby cleaving the caged aminoluciferin substrate. The released free aminoluciferin is then oxidized by luciferase in the presence of ATP to generate a bioluminescent signal, whose intensity is directly correlated with the reduction degree of Pt (IV) .
