Design,synthesis,and antifungal mechanism of carbaline fluorescent probes
Three carboline fluorescent probes F1-F3 were designed and synthesized,based on lead compound JYJ-19,an antifungal compound discovered previously by our group.The antifungal activity in vitro results showed that compound F1 had moderate antifungal activity(MIC80=32 μg·mL-1).The stokes shift of Fl is 70 nm.The fluorescent probe F1 has good optical properties and can be used for fluorescence imaging research.Subcellular localization experiments results showed that F1 was enriched in the mitochondria of fungal cells.The detection of intracellular reactive oxygen species levels shows that JYJ-19 enhances intracellular reactive oxygen species levels.The above results indicated that carboline compounds could exert antifungal effects by acting on fungal mitochondria.
