Resum
In the light of recent retrovirus pandemics, the issue of discovering new and diverse RNA-specific fluorochromes for research and diagnostics became of acute importance. The great majority of nucleic acid-specific probes either do not stain RNA or cannot distinguish between DNA and RNA. The versatility of polymethine dyes makes them suitable as stains for visualization, analysis, and detection of nucleic acids, proteins, and other biomolecules. We synthesized the asymmetric dicationic homodimeric monomethine cyanine dyes 1,1′-(1,3-phenylenebis(methylene))bis(4-((3-methylbenzo[d]thiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)methyl)pyridin-1-ium) bromide (Т1) and 1,1′-(1,3-phenylenebis(methylene))bis(4-((3-methylbenzo[d]thiazol-2(3H)-ylidene)methyl)quinolin-1-ium) bromide (M1) and tested their binding specificity, spectral characteristics, membrane penetration in living and fixed cells, cellular toxicity, and stability of fluorescent emission. Mesenchymal cells have diverse phenotypes and extensive proliferation and differentiation properties. We found dyes T1 and M1 to show high photochemical stability in living mesenchymal stem cells from apical papilla (SCAP) with a strong fluorescent signal when bound to nucleic acids. We found M1 to perform better than control fluorochrome (Hoechst 33342) for in vivo DNA visualization. T1, on the other hand, stains granular cellular structures resembling ribosomes in living cells and after permeabilization of the nuclear membrane stains the nucleoli and not the chromatin in the nucleus. This makes T1 suitable for the visualization of structures rich in RNA in living and fixed cells.
