CybLuc is an aminoluciferin derivative for deep bioluminescence imaging.
The effectiveness of in vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is hampered by the significant absorption and scattering of shorter wavelength light (<600 nm) by blood and tissues, which weakens the signal from conventional D-luciferin. CybLuc addresses these shortcomings by offering a red-shifted emission spectrum (max. 600 nm) for improved tissue penetration. Coupled with its greater lipophilicity and metabolic stability, these properties make CybLuc an ideal agent for in vivo studies.| Targets |
Bioluminescence imaging agent; Firefly luciferase (enzyme substrate). Acts as a superior substrate for bioluminescence imaging compared to D-luciferin.

| ln Vitro |
In Vitro: CybLuc is an effective aminoluciferin derivative designed for deep bioluminescence imaging. It exhibits properties superior to D-luciferin.
|
| ln Vivo |
In Vivo: CybLuc demonstrates effectiveness in deep bioluminescence imaging applications in mouse models. It provides a rapid (4-5 minutes), long-lasting, and steady signal peak following intravenous (i.v.) injection in mice. It is shown to readily cross the blood-brain barrier and provides much improved noninvasive bioluminescence imaging (BLI) of the brain at a lower dose compared to D-luciferin. It yields about a 10-fold higher bioluminescent signal than D-luciferin in certain implanted cancer cell models (e.g., Luc2 luciferase-expressing 4T1 breast cancer cells implanted into the mammary fat pads of BABL/c mice).

| Animal Protocol |
Animal Protocol: In mouse studies, CybLuc is administered via intravenous (i.v.) injection. A rapid (4-5 min), long-lasting, and steady signal peak is observed following the injection.

| Additional Infomation |
CybLuc (CAS: 1649470-26-7) is a synthetic aminoluciferin derivative. It exhibits a higher affinity for luciferase and a luminescence intensity approximately 5.7 times that of aminoluciferin and 3.2 times that of D-luciferin. Its excellent light output is maintained over a wide concentration range (1-100 µM). It has been used in research related to glioma imaging and therapeutic development. To improve the efficiency of firefly luciferase/luciferin bioluminescence imaging, researchers developed a series of N-cycloalkyl aminoluciferins (cyaLuc) by introducing lipophilic N-cycloalkyl substituents. Experimental results show that these cyaLuc are effective substrates for natural firefly luciferase (Fluc), capable of generating enhanced bioluminescent signals in vitro, intracellularly, and in vivo. Notably, in animal experiments, the bioluminescence intensity of N-cyclobutylaminofluorescein (cybLuc) at a concentration of 10 μM (0.1 mL)—only 0.01% of the standard dose of d-luciferin (dLuc) commonly used in mouse imaging—was 20 times that of the same concentration of d-luciferin (dLuc) or aminoluciferin (aLuc). Longer in vivo emission imaging using cybLuc suggests that it can be used for long-term observation. Regarding the mechanism of action of cybLuc, the co-crystal structure data of firefly luciferase and oxidized cybLuc obtained by us indicate that oxidized cybLuc binds to oxidized luciferin in the same pocket. Most importantly, our results suggest that the high sensitivity of cybLuc in brain tumor imaging makes it a promising candidate for wider application in deep tissues. [1]
