Product Description
5(6)-Carboxy-2',7'-dichlorofluorescein is a fluorescein that is an ideal substrate for MRP2 vesicle transport experiments and has good detection and transport properties.
5(6)-Carboxy-2',7'-dichlorofluorescein (CAS 111843-78-8), also known as CDF, is a fluorescent compound widely used in biological research. It is a fluorescein that is an ideal substrate for MRP2 vesicle transport experiments and has good detection and transport properties. The compound is used as a probe for detecting reactive oxygen species (ROS) and assessing cellular health. It is also known as 5-(and-6)-Carboxy-2',7'-dichlorofluorescein or DCFA.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of CDF is the MRP2 (multidrug resistance-associated protein 2) transporter, as it is a substrate for this efflux pump. Its mechanism of action in this context involves being transported by MRP2 across membranes. As a fluorescent probe, its mechanism is based on its fluorescence properties. Upon oxidation by reactive oxygen species, the non-fluorescent dihydro form is converted to the highly fluorescent fluorescein form, allowing for the detection of ROS. This property makes it a valuable tool for assessing oxidative stress in cells.
ln Vitro
In vitro, CDF is used as a fluorescein that is an ideal substrate for MRP2 vesicle transport experiments. It is also used as a fluorescent probe for detecting reactive oxygen species (ROS) and assessing cellular health. The compound's ability to be transported by MRP2 makes it a useful tool for studying the function of this efflux pump. Its fluorescence properties allow for sensitive detection of ROS in cell-based assays.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity of CDF is not typically studied. However, as a substrate for MRP2, it could potentially be used to assess MRP2 function in vivo. Its use as a ROS probe could also be applied in vivo to measure oxidative stress in tissues. However, specific in vivo data is not available in the literature.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding (non-cell) assays using CDF typically involve the compound as a substrate for MRP2 or as a probe for ROS. A standard protocol for MRP2 vesicle transport assay: membrane vesicles containing MRP2 are incubated with CDF in a buffer containing ATP. The uptake of CDF into the vesicles is measured by fluorescence. The compound's transport by MRP2 is assessed by comparing the uptake in the presence and absence of ATP or in the presence of MRP2 inhibitors.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays using CDF typically involve measuring ROS production or MRP2 activity. A standard protocol for ROS detection: cells are loaded with CDF (e.g., by incubation with the acetoxymethyl ester form) for 30-60 minutes at 37°C. The cells are then washed and stimulated with an agent that induces ROS production (e.g., hydrogen peroxide). The increase in fluorescence is measured over time using a fluorescence plate reader or flow cytometry. For MRP2 activity, cells expressing MRP2 are incubated with CDF, and the efflux of the compound is measured.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for CDF are not well-documented. For ROS detection, CDF could potentially be used to measure oxidative stress in tissues. For example, the compound could be injected into animals, and its fluorescence in various tissues could be measured. However, specific protocols and data are not available.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of CDF are not a primary focus of study. The compound is a fluorescent probe used in cell-based assays. Its cell permeability depends on the form used (e.g., the acetoxymethyl ester form is cell-permeable). The compound is typically stored as a powder and protected from light.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity data for CDF is limited. As a fluorescent probe, it is generally considered to have low toxicity at the concentrations used for assays. However, standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound. The compound is not intended for human use.
