Abstract
We report a novel fluorescent bioprobe, tetraphenylethylene-Phe-Asp-Gly-Glu-Ala (TPE-FDGEA), and its self-assembly behavior, photophysical properties, and biocompatibility. The hydrogelator TPE-FDGEA exhibited aggregation-induced emission characteristics, which facilitated imaging of PC-3 human prostate cancer cells, thereby demonstrating the utility of such fluorescent probes for specific labeling of target cells in vitro.Entities:
