Peroxynitrite (ONOO contributes to oxidative stress and neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Developing a peroxynitrite probe would enable in situ visualization of the overwhelming ONOO − flux and understanding of the ONOO − stress-induced neuropathology of PD. Herein, a novel -ketoamide-based fluorogenic probe (DFlu) was designed for ONOO − monitoring in multiple PD models. The results demonstrated thatDFlu exhibits a fluorescence turn-on response to ONOO − with high specificity and sensitivity. The efficacy ofDFlu for intracellular ONOO − imaging was demonstrated systematically. The results showed thatDFlu can successfully visualize endogenous and exogenous ONOO − in cells derived from chemical and biochemical routes. More importantly, the two-photon excitation ability ofDFlu has been well demonstrated by monitoring exogenous/endogenous ONOO − production and scavenging in live zebrafish PD models. This work provides a reliable and promising -ketoamide-based optical tool for identifying variations of ONOO − in PD models.
