Bioluminescence Probe for Detecting Hydrogen Sulfide in Vivo

Considering that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous signaling molecule involved in numerous biological processes, a method for monitoring H2S as a powerful tool for investigating its complicated functions and mechanisms is urgently demanded. Herein, a bioluminescent turn-on probe was reported based on caged strategy for the detection of H2S in vitro and in vivo. This probe will help us understand the intricate contribution of H2S to a variety of physiological and pathological processes.
