| Core Tip |
This study systematically evaluated the high-performance fluorescent probe DAF-FM for visual screening and efficacy assessment of esophagitis-to-cancer transformation. DAF-FM exhibited concentration-dependent and time-dependent fluorescence responses to nitric oxide (NO), targeted lysosomes specifically (Pearson coefficient = 0.82 ± 0.03), and had low cytotoxicity (82.3% ± 4.1% cell viability at 50 μM). In Sprague-Dawley rat esophagitis cancer models, DAF-FM monitored NO changes dynamically, with results positively correlated to tumor volume (R² = 0.87) post 5-fluorouracil/radiotherapy. Clinically, it outperformed endoscopic biopsy (sensitivity: 92.5% vs 78.3%) and shortened detection time (30 minutes vs 48 hours). Mechanistically, NO regulates carcinogenesis via the nuclear factor-kappa B pathway, clarifying DAF-FM’s molecular logic in reflecting transformation stages. |
