Turn-on chemiluminescence probes and dual-amplification of signal for detection of amyloid beta species in vivo

J. Yang, W. Yin, et al.

Discover how researchers Jing Yang, Wei Yin, and colleagues have developed ADLumin-1, an innovative turn-on chemiluminescence probe that effectively targets amyloid beta species. This groundbreaking probe not only crosses the blood-brain barrier but also enhances imaging of Aβ plaques, presenting new possibilities for understanding neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract

This paper reports the design and validation of a turn-on chemiluminescence probe, ADLumin-1, for amyloid beta (Aβ) species. The probe efficiently crosses the blood-brain barrier and provides excellent contrast for Aβ plaques and cerebral amyloid angiopathy in vivo. Signal amplification is further achieved using chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (DAS-CRET) with two non-conjugated probes. The study suggests this strategy could be extended to other aggregating-prone proteins.
